    Spoiler Alert!!!

    Ok, am I totally dense that I didn't see the Charlie part of the ending coming?? I suspected John at times throughout the book, but had ZERO inkling that he had killed Charlie too! Jaw. Dropped.

  • So...is it time to move on to another book yet?  There hasn't been much discussion on the last one, but I know I've been done for awhile now, so I'm ready for a new one if others are.

    Ohhhh dude. I agree @jnnfrrose6 we should

    I'm rereading the Outlander series right now as the latest book is out next month (squee) and also The Shadow of Night series (so good, so so good)

    Any suggestions? Let's pick one that no one has read yet. Light reading!

    I have 3 weeks of work left, so I'm about to have a hell of a lot of free time on my hands. Before I don't anyways.
    I'm rereading the last one again right now!! I'm so excited for the new one to come out. I'll have to check out the Shadow of Night series...

    I'm down for a new book. I generally have a couple going at any given time anyway, so count me in!

    I failed so hard at this. Even with the light reading *hangs head in shame*

    Same! I feel so bad because I really want to get into it. I'm still trying but damn, this is just not light reading lol.

    May I suggest "A great and terrible beauty" too? I think it's pretty good. Haven't finished it but I want to. It's very dark Victorian paranormal. Which I adore ;) just a thought!

    ETA: and it's actually light IMO! Lol
  • I'm down for whatever you guys suggest! I enjoyed cuckoo and I'm only rereading a book right now so bring it on!

  • I suggest Gone Girl.  It's a crazy read but very good!  I will have to investigate the Shadows series.

  • I also failed at the last book. I will try to read the next one y'all pick!
    hi

  • I can second Gone Girl being a great read. I've already read it though so I'm open to others. Has anyone read Meridith Wild's Hardwired series? It's supposed to compare to 50 Shades?
  • The user and all related content has been deleted.
  • I want to get involved with this! I've re-read everything on my Kindle & book shelves during my lovely pregnancy insomnia...
    Gone Girl was definitely a great read, Cuckoos Calling was good.... I don't have any suggestions though, sorry

    I LOVED LOVED LOVED A Discovery of Witches!! I pulled 3 all nighters in one week to get through them all. My boss wasn't too happy with my performance the days after... Until I passed them off to her! Sooo good!
  • ZeusLBAZeusLBA member
    Thanks @LiteraChick‌ and @chrinikki1‌ ! I will add them to my goodreads Tbr list.

  • It looks like we need a new nominations thread. I really have no suggestions in reads and am following the crowd on this one, but I'm ready for whatever gets picked.
  • Well, I downloaded A Discovery of Witches, and put Gone Girl on hold, but I'm getting my groove back with reading since its too hard to get up and go watch tv or play outside, so feel free to add more books to my list. /rant.

    I downloaded discovery of witches as well, not my typical read but it sounded good! So I vote for that :)
  • My vote is Hardwired series. Selfishly I need some action... Even if it's in my mind :)
  • kwh33lskwh33ls member
    I'll read anything till the new Outlander comes out, then...no promises :)

    EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE aren't you totes geeking out over there? I cannot WAIT, I'm rereading the last one right now so I'm refreshed for it.

    Vote on the next couple comments for the next book read.
    Like you'd never believe! I reread all of them so I would finish Echo right in time for the last one :) I'm even excited for the series in late summer (but they're so often disappointing that I worry a little).

    What series? And what is disappointing?
    Oh, gosh!! Starz has an Outlander series starting this August: https://www.starz.com/originals/outlander

    I get so sad when film versions (either series or movies) of my favorite books are...lackluster at best. I'm cautiously optimistic about this one because DG had so much input in the casting and production of this one, but I'm trying to temper my excitement with a little realism...books as good as these are apt to be tough to translate to the screen. This helps though...

  • 3 to 4 on the vote... Did anyone start reading yet? I started Hardwired. Easy ready with the sexiness I needed!
  • @catarntina‌ really? I need to read faster. I just started it last night so I'm not too far.
  • Wait, we determined the next book? Did I miss something? I've been wondering why there hasn't been anything new over here recently.
  • @jnnfrrose6‌ I don't know that we actually chose one officially... Last I read was the love tit your vote that @LiteraChick‌ posted.
  • I'm about 60% done with A Discovery of Witches and its so good! I couldn't download Hardwired...I'll keep trying though!

  • I also started Discovery of Witches, and it's awesome. I'm not as much of a romance/steamy book reader, though. I'll play along when the book choice is "official" :)
