Amy (DemonKittie) (demonkittie) | 340 comments Started this over again because it was made by a deleted user, and I wanted it to be tidy.

Also I am reading Glass Houses by Rachel Caine.

Glass Houses (The Morganville Vampires, #1) by Rachel Caine

David Estes (davidestesbooks) I like tidy! :)

I'm reading Never Fade (The Darkest Minds, #2) by Alexandra Bracken

Peter Stone (sevensidedcube) | 12 comments Just a few days ago I finished reading The Lost Starship. It was a rollicking great read, lots of fun.

Cristine (skyfury) | 5 comments Working on book two of The 5th Wave... Infinite Sea. Not as gripping as the first book so far, but also not the stereotypical dystopian fiction I usually read (aliens meets YADF). First book is worth the read if you haven't seen it yet.

Kristina Just finished Day 21 (The Hundred, #2) by Kass Morgan and now starting In a Handful of Dust (Not a Drop to Drink, #2) by Mindy McGinnis

Can't wait to read In a Handful of Dust! Speaking of Dust, I'm now reading Dust (Silo, #3) by Hugh Howey So excited to finally finish the Wool series :)

Jane (janeinri) | 129 comments Oh, I loved Dust! I love when a series I love has a good, hopeful ending - I don't need everything wrapped up with a bow, but after spending time with characters over a series of books where TERRIBLE things happen, I like to leave them with some hope.

Love to hear what you think when you finish!


message 9: by David (new)

David Estes (davidestesbooks) Awesome, Jane! I'm very close to finishing and it is truly a fantastic third book in a fantastic series. Although I'm not to the hopeful part yet, I had a feeling it would come eventually :)

How did you find the book? I love the series and enjoy lending it to other people so they can become addicted to Rachel Caine too.

Slated is fantastic! I didn't enjoy Fractured as much but it is still really good, I'm biding my time to read the last one because I don't want to run out!

Chris (2208) | 4 comments I'm just starting the last book (#4) of the Iron King series. I've liked them enough to keep reading....but not enough to put them on my top 10 list.

Jocelyn | 2 comments I just completed reading The Eleventh Station.
I loved it.
Post-apocalyptic. It spans several years, frequently jumping between decades, but the characters actions throughout the years affect others without direct intention.
An enjoyment to read!


Amy (DemonKittie) (demonkittie) | 340 comments I am listening to Food A Love Story by Jim Gaffigan and reading The Ghost Bride by Yangsze Choo .


message 15: by David (new)

David Estes (davidestesbooks) Cool, are they any good? I just finished Heir of Fire (Throne of Glass, #3) by Sarah J. Maas (LOVED!) and now back to reading Leviathan (Leviathan, #1) by Scott Westerfeld (Loving!)


Amy (DemonKittie) (demonkittie) | 340 comments Food was hilarious. The Ghost Bride is good in a way but slow and I want to HIT the main character sometimes. I love that it is very involved in the levels of hell and the judges. It taught me a lot about that version of the afterlife.

I am currently reading The Troop by Nick Cutter


message 17: by Phair (new)

Phair (sphair) I've been playing catch-up on some series begun a while back. Recently finished Horde Horde (Razorland, #3) by Ann Aguirre in audio and Prodigy (Legend, #2) by Marie Lu Prodigy.
While it took time to get back up to speed on the story so far for each of these, both were pretty good.


message 18: by Tommy (new)

Tommy Hancock (tommyhancock) | 2 comments I finished The Power of Six (Lorien Legacies, #2) by Pittacus Lore last night. Took longer for me to get into than the first book, but it ended up being quite intense.

Up next, Rot and Ruin (Benny Imura, #1) by Jonathan Maberry
