The Awakening (Darkest Powers, Book 2)
Crossing my fingers the next book is better. Will start it this weekend.
Linger (Wolves of Mercy Falls, Book 2)
Loved this book. I'm not the crying type but this one got to me...I'm also 7mo pregnant, so maybe some hormones too!
Mockingjay (The Hunger Games, Book 3)
AMAZING SERIES. I cannot recommend these books enough. Sorry to see them over.
Leviathan
I just couldn't get through this audiobook. I can't help but think there are far better books out there to spend my time on.
Bitten (Women of the Otherworld, Book 1)
A really great read. Best book I've picked up in some time. Already excited to read the next one.
Fallen
This was a very slow book. The action picked up with about 50 pages to go. I will read the next one hoping that it is like the last 50 pages and not the first 400!!
The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella (Twilight Saga)
I just loved being back in this world.
SPOILER ALERT!
Dead in the Family (Sookie Stackhouse/True Blood, Book 10)
Did anything happen in this book? I feel like there was very little content/action. Seems to be a filler. Bill is very sick, sookie tracks down his "sister" who actually looks like Bill's old wife and her blood saves him
Eric is still under attack by victor for power. His maker visits along with a young boy who is a Russian Royal. This boy is out of control and kills humans, and eventually attacks Erics human helper, Pam, Eric, and his maker.
The wolf pack is under pressure from the government b/c of coming out.
Sookie's fairy cousin moves in and they discover other fairies are still around.
There is a protest at Sam's because he is a shifter and Sookie is considered bad also.
SPOILER ALERT!
Kiss of Death (Morganville Vampires, Book 8)
This book did not leave me as exhausted as I sometimes feel with Caine's books. Exhausted in a good way. There is never that strong emotional connection, but I like them more for the action and quick read they provide. I may blame the fact that I stopped midway to read Spirit Bound and then picked it back up with only 50 pages to go. I did like the change of location, but..some things just seemed to come a little easier than they should. May seem strange that I can accept a town of vampires but then take issue with plot...but being in jail for suspected murder and then never worrying about it again, fixing a town full of sick vamps overnight, the library doors being wide open the very next morning. How do they know they got them all? Oh well.
SPOILER ALERT!
Spirit Bound (Vampire Academy, Book 5)
Oh Rose. I feel so sorry for her. She went through SO much for Dimitri and then, he won't even see her. I have complete confidence they will be together in the end (espeically after his scene in the cafe), but what heart break. And then I feel horrible for Adrian, being pulled into her sadness and most likely getting his heart broken in the end. My probably wrong guess is that Dimitri will break Rose out of jail before she can be convicted, or maybe after. They will go on a hunt for Lissa's 1/2 sibling. During this journey he will finally allow himself to love her again (also hinted at in the cards- about the journey). I think Victor is connected to(maybe not the actual killer)the queen's murder. I seems a little strange to me that Rose never thinks of him...considering she broke him out of jail, and then lost him. I would think there would maybe have been a little more feeling of responsibility for finding him. My quess is their paths with cross because they are both looking for Lissa's 1/2 sibling. Maybe a spirit user.
Storm Born (Dark Swan, Book 1)
Like the other books by Mead, I struggled through the first quarter of this book before it finally took off for me. I mostly enjoyed Eugenie learning about and working on her skills. I think I would have felt worse about events surrounding Kiyo if I hadn't just finished the Cat & Bones books, where Bones is awesome, but definatly Doesnt have a perfect past. I am excited to get book 2.
SPOILER ALERT!
The Lunatic Cafe (Anita Blake Vampire Hunter)
This is the first book in this series where Anita is really starting to bother me. Previously I liked her take charge attitude, but now her constant cold shoulder to everyone she is around is driving me crazy. I am bored with her blue nike swoosh and obsession with her guns. The previous books had constant action to keep me interested, but this one is much slower. Not sure if I will read another.
Beautiful Creatures (Beautiful Creatures, Book 1)
I was disappointed in this book. I think the hype surrounding its release maybe set my expectations too high. It took me about 3 weeks to get through a 1 week book (for me). I kept putting it down, and had little drive to find out what would happen. I felt the ending was obvious and left much to be desired.
