I’m having a rough day….
So tell me about the books you’re reading!!
The Marked Series (Inception and Invidious so far). Not as good as I’d hoped for it. I’m overall not a fan of the main people in the books but as a series in toughing it through hoping it gets better.
Ah! This is one that I’ve been wanting to check out
I thought there would be more action. The description of the series had me excited to read but it’s been difficult getting through the characters. It could be because Im using the audio book instead of reading it as well. Sometimes the narrators ruin the feel of the books.
I’m reading City of Bones again. It’s interesting. Shadowhunters, vampires, annoying main character, werewolves running around NYC
I’ve read the first couple and liked em well enough.
Have you read the Infernal Devices and Dark Artifices yet? I’ve actually liked those better than the main Mortal Instruments series.
Nah I read the first three and then a clockwork one
My boyfriend just bought me this, I am going to finish it later, I only have around 60 pages to go. ?
Oh sweet. liking it?
I’m also wondering how you’re liking it. Have it at home but haven’t read it.
I read it before years ago but never had my own copy and when me and my bf were browsing a book store the other week I pointed it out to him and he secretly bought it for me as a gift for my birthday but it’s a really good book so glad to have a copy. It’s based on the author’s experiences of being basically so poor due to lack of work he is on the streets of both cities mentioned in the title and it describes all the people both good and bad he meets on his travels. It’s considered a very in depth and factual account of the time of writing of poverty and homelessness. A really good read. Hope this helps. ?
It kinda sucks it’s called Kings Cage and I hate it but I’m trying to truck through it
OH I hate those. Trying so hard not to DNF it
I just wanna finish it.
But the end is so far.
Ha!! I’ve had that feeling before
I just finished Bleachers by John Grishim !! I’m not a football fan but I really did enjoying reading this book !!! It’s about a high school football coach and the many kids he coached ! He was tough on them all !! They couldn’t decide if they loved coach Eddie Rake or hated him !!! In the end they realized he taught them all valuble lessons !!! They used these lessons later on in life !!! Really liked it !!!
oh cool
Just finished ACOWAR and it was superb. Now focusing on The Fireman by Joe Hill and going to be starting Starfall by Melissa Landers.
I’m on ACOTAR for a reread
I just reread acotar and acomaf right before ACOWAR! Loooove this series!
@Amanda me too!!
Reading Miracle at St Anna. Good enough so far. It was a real bargain so that’s why I bought it, but it’s been quite interesting so far.
I don’t know this book…
It”s a novel about black american soldiers in Italy during WWII. So far one of them has found the head of a statue and is periodically turning invisible (or imagining it, not sure yet). There was a movie I haven’t seen. So far so good, we’ll see.
oh that sounds pretty cool
“Camino Island” by John Grisham. Quite the attention grabber from page one, at least for me. I started it last night while at work, and I am about 3/4 finished. I believe I shall start “The Only Child” by Andrew Pyper when I finish “Camino Island”.
oh must be a page turner than!!
@Belynda, I am truly enjoying it. It isn’t a thriller, but it does keep you wondering what the outcome will be.
The Robe by Lloyd C. Douglas
what’s that about
I read The Robe a long time ago !! I’d read it again if I ever run across it !!!
The fate of Jesus robe
A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin
what is that about
A Wizard of Earthsea (Earthsea Cycle #1)
by Ursula K. Le Guin
Ged, the greatest sorcerer in all Earthsea, was called Sparrowhawk in his reckless youth.
Hungry for power and knowledge, Sparrowhawk tampered with long-held secrets and loosed a terrible shadow upon the world. This is the tale of his testing, how he mastered the mighty words of power, tamed an ancient dragon, and crossed death’s threshold to restore the balance.
that sounds interesting
I love sci/fantasy !!!
A series I really enjoyed was …. Diana L Paxon’s The Hallowed Isle’s. It’s 4 books that I will read again.
Oh I’ll have to look into them
This is book # 1 https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/481377.The_Book_of_the_Sword?ac=1&from_search=true
I’m just getting into Douglas Adams’ ‘Mostly Harmless’, after which I have a small library pile (pictured) to get through 🙂
JUst finished the Tearling! Loved it. Starting on Red Queen now.
I’m pretty sure that both of those are on my TBR list lol
Tearling is on my list. Red Queen grabbed me put got bored half way through the second one. But I do plan on reading the 3rd one.
I am worried about that already with the Red Queen. Tearling the second book threw me because there is some time warping going on, but if you can handle that, it’s EXCELLENT. I’m pondering rereading Three Dark Crowns too because it was so good lol.
At job training for my new job and have only be able to finish one article in the Atlantic magazine…will probably not be able to restart reading until next Monday ? must work to buy books and live
sooo sad 🙁
Just started this and it seems cute. I needed a light read lol
I’ve read this book. It was fun
I’m enjoying it so far
Reading #3 In the Outlander series. Completely addicted! There is nothin better than a time travelling, love story with a lot of twists and turns and surprises!
I just started this. It’s VERY quirky, and I’m tempted to stop reading—but I’m DETERMINED to read at LEAST 50 pages before I make any rash, judgmental decisions, and jump to any harsh conclusions!
I’m reading Love and War by John Jakes. Hope your day gets better!!!
Reading if I Stay. Not sure if I like it that much
Reading Relics by Tim Lebbon (140 pages read so far) and enjoying it very much.
Eragon
I was reading The Grapes of Wrath, but I can’t seem to get through it. After page 109, I was through with it. It’s not a bad book, I just can’t seem to get into it. I’ll probably revisit it later. I just started The Girl on the Train and so far, so good.
Just got it. Woman divorced and moves to the country.
Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman. Not very far into it, but I’m enjoying it so far
I went back to “How to Read Literature like a Professor,” I’m on the first Interlude, about on the second one. I love to take notes on the books I read. But, the author tries to be funny, and either I don’t find his sense of humor funny or I’m just trying to understand the chapter better. (I want to be a Literature Professor but too busy) Maybe the author tries too hard, yeah that is it.
I am reading the seven husbands of evelyn Hugo about a old school Hollywood actress who grants an all exclusive interview at the age of 79… think Elizabeth taylor. Hope your day gets better if you need to vent feel free to message me even though we aren’t friends we are book nerds and we all need to vent sometimes! Hugs!!
It’s really just stress from figuring out how to pay to take my pup to the vet on a sudden kind of notice. when we’ve already had a really tough couple months.
Awe hun I am so sorry! As a mom of two fur babies I understand!!! I wish I had extra money to contribute but I am strapped as well. sending you giant hugs and good vibes
Thank you!! Yeah I understand being strapped. I made a gofundme….in case people wanted to help. But I didn’t really expect much.
I’m readng Mr. Churchill’s Secretary, a Maggie Hope mystery. It’s set during WW II and tells about the perils of living in London during the Blitz. I like
to read Historical Fiction and learn what people had to endue during certain periods of history.
Reading The Summer Tree by Guy Gavriel Kay. It’s been so long since I’ve gotten into a good fantasy series, so I’m really excited about it. Yesterday I also read Night by Elie Wiesel, and it SHOOK me.
I’m reading American gods, by Neil Gaiman. It’s a rich and interesting romp through the history of America and religions brought to it by a myriad of immigrants over the centuries, I’m really enjoying it.
Me and the bf are going to buddy read it starting like soon.
You’ll love it.
I’m sure we will. I wanna watch the show too
I keep watching snippets of it on you tube, but so far I think I’m going to be disappointed by the tv series.
I’m sure I will too. But the style it looks so pretty!!
I dunno, I reserve my final opinion till I see it. But Book first!
Yes always book first
Read anything by Sara j Maas. Trust me!!
Trying to muddle through ACOTAR, starting to like it the further I get into it.
Further u get the better. I was the same. After u get in to them u won’t b able to put them down. Lol
Try throne of glass ones first
That’s in my TBR list, hopefully I can get to them before the weather is freezing again
Amazing books. As a writer that is trying to finish a book I still take out time to read. And I make sure to read hers.

Are you enjoying it? Her first book is one of my favourite books.
Very much. A must read about current indian turmoil
The throne of glass series is amazing, I’m on book three. There is only one problem, I work at a library and I keep checking things out!
I went to the library a few weeks ago and was so overwhelmed!! It was hard to just pick three books
I have a stack of like six at home right now! And three more on my desk to take with me! ???
Ghosts of the Titanic. It’s been interesting. And a bit humorous at times. Especially the story of the 1st class gentleman found escorting his mistress to the lifeboats. By his wife. ?
I’m reading golden son
