There's nothing better than a book hangover!
I love to read and get lost in an imaginary world. I'm always either reading or listening to a book.

LOVED!! A simple storyline with such colorful characters set in a world so complex. A mixture of innocence, action and exploration. I know that's probably a weird word to use but every single character is exploring the possibility of growing and potentially being something more than what they are. I hate that I have to wait a year to see what will happen between The Meg and Simon.
Loving this series. Cady, Lon & Jupe are great together. I love the mature drama free romantic and working relationship between Cady and Lon. They actually talk and discuss their feelings *gasp*! Plus Jenn Bennett still manages to make their sex scenes sizzling hot.
I was a bit unsure coming into this one. The series as a whole has had its ups and downs for me - but I guess that's to be expected. Aryal proved to be a nasty bitch in Lord's Fall and I wasn't sure I wanted to read a book about her. There just wasn't much that I found appealing about her. Not sure what it was, but Thea Harrison managed to changed my mind. I had wondered about the motivation behind Quentin's desire to be a Sentinel. I had also wondered about the Elves and Quentin's connection to them.

This was my favorite in the series so far. While I'm enjoyed Kara, I've always felt like she needed to be more kickass and felt she was way too trusting. This segment of the series takes place mostly in the demon world. Kara finds herself at the mercy of Demon lord Mzatal. I liked Mzatal since the beginning. Even before his intentions were clear.
First and foremost, I’ve been a huge fan of this series. Ever since I read book 1 as an ARC I fell in love with Kate Avery Ellison’s writing. The vivid world and its characters have been great to follow. I’ve stayed loyal to them, even thru those books that lacked the usual magic. So I eagerly picked this up and… not sure what happened.
Once again I'm reminded to never judge a book by its cover. This was nothing like I thought it would be. This moved me in a way few books do. Once I picked it up I was unable to put it down. There are some books that just demand your full attention and loss of sleep is a small payment to pay.
I'm really enjoying this series. Celaena isn't always easy to like. She's often impatient and acts like a petulant child. Yet, beneath all that is nothing more than a girl who dreams of being free and living a normal life. It bothered me how reactionary she was. Often I wanted her to just stop. Assess what was happening and then react. It just felt like she was easily falling into the schemes of others, even of her dear friend Nehemia.
“I love you,” he whispered.
