Abby | 5404 comments So excited to start! I've been doing medium for a long time, but have been reading at a serious level the past few months. So I'm back! Starting out with The Magnolia Story by Chip Gaines on audio, which I'm buddy reading with Melanie, and A Court of Wings and Ruin (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #3) by Sarah J. Maas physically. (Which for some reason I just can't get a buddy for.)

Melanie (lovebeingvegan) | 13891 comments First read is: Can't Help Falling by Kara Isaac and once my copy of Magnolia Story comes in, I'm starting that. :)

message 18: by Abby (new)

I hope! My AP English teacher got everyone in the class a book, and that's what he got me.


message 20: by Rachel (new)

Rachel Gunter Just wanted to check in, I've finished one book, nearly finished with the second 😊 I'll probably put up a few reviews at once at the weekend, so don't worry I am reading even if I'm not reviewing straight away!


message 21: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (longy207) | 1581 comments I have not yet read any books but I think I'll finish 2/ 3 today


message 22: by Abby (new)

Abby | 5404 comments I hit a hiccup with a DNF, but I'm close to finishing a couple of others.


message 23: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (longy207) | 1581 comments aww no, what was your DNF?


message 24: by Abby (new)

Abby | 5404 comments Rebecca wrote: "aww no, what was your DNF?"

A Court of Wings and Ruin. First two were good, but the third just lost my interest. Felt the exact same way with Throne of Glass as well.


message 25: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (longy207) | 1581 comments what? I was looking forward to that one as well.


message 26: by Abby (new)

Abby | 5404 comments Sarah Maas destroys her characters. It's like she's writing fanfic of her own books. I'm in the minority though. Most people love the books.


message 27: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (lovebeingvegan) | 13891 comments Abby, I wasn't a fan of Throne of Glass either. Gave up on the series after it.

Abby | 5404 comments Melanie wrote: "Abby, I wasn't a fan of Throne of Glass either. Gave up on the series after it."

I read up through Queen of Shadows. I always hate not to finish series, but just couldn't hold on any longer. Especially with no end in sight.


message 29: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (lovebeingvegan) | 13891 comments Alley, I can buddy read The Rose Society with you. Just let me know when. :)


message 30: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (lovebeingvegan) | 13891 comments Reading update:

I'm currently reading several books. I hope to have 2-3 done today...we shall see how that goes. :)


message 31: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (lovebeingvegan) | 13891 comments Well, the day didn't go as planned. I'll be lucky if I can finish one book tonight.
