Just answer three questions and share what you're reading.
WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY READING?
Mrs. Everything - Jennifer Weiner
I'm still getting into this ARC for Weiner's latest (I'm at 6%, I think) but I'm already enjoying it. This novel spans decades and decades and follows the lives of two sisters. I'm excited to see where it goes.
While Block Shot doesn't have the same gut-wrenching emotion that Long Shot did, I'm still totally invested. I'm about 85% in and I think I know how things are going to go, but if Long Shot was any indication of Kennedy Ryan's style there could still be plenty of surprises in store.
WHAT DID YOU RECENTLY FINISH READING?
Storm and Fury was all kinds of fun from start to finish. It was typical Jennifer Armentrout - and I mean that in a good way. When it comes to YA paranormal/fantasy, JLA has a formula and it works. I loved returning to the world from The Dark Elements trilogy and how JLA expanded on it. She kept me guessing on a few important aspects and getting to revisit some old favorites (Layla, Caymen, ROTH! and Bambi!) was absolutely priceless.
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'LL READ NEXT?
I'm not going to rush through Mrs. Everything but I can tell you that just as soon as I turn that last page I am dropping everything and picking up Red, White & Royal Blue! I am crazy-excited for this one!

I wanna know! :)
Can't wait to hear your thoughts on Block Shot and I hope you get to Red White and Royal Blue soon!
ReplyDeleteI’m down to one more hour of Block Shot. Twelve hours down, one to go. This better end well. Gah!
DeleteI have Long Shot and Red, White & Royal Blue on my TBR for June.

I can’t wait to see what you think of Long Shot! And hopefully we’ll both love Red, White & Royal Blue.
DeleteI just spent a few weeks in London, so I've decided to get some reading done that is inspired by my travels. I'm reading the first Harry Potter book to start things out!
ReplyDeleteSo envious of your time in London, Ethan. It's been almost 10 years since I've been. HP is definitely a perfect pick to start! :)
DeleteGosh, I haven’t read a book by Jennifer Weiner in ages. I am reading good things about the Armentrout book.
ReplyDeleteI read one or two by Weiner a decade or so ago (Good in Bed, maybe?) and then didn't pick up anything else by her until last year when I read Who Do You Love, which I adored. The synopsis of Mrs. Everything really snagged my attention and I love the fact than it spans so many years.
DeleteStorm and Fury looks pretty awesome- those always have such distinctive covers. I haven't read Armentrout yet though.
ReplyDeleteArmentrout has long been one of my go-to authors. And I agree - I am loving the cover of Storm and Fury!
DeleteI know a lot of people were angry about a certain plot point in Block Shot, but Ryan never leaves her ends loose. She gives reasons for things and always lets the characters get to a place of forgiveness or at least, closure. I was ok with it, and overall, enjoyed the book. Banner was fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI can understand why some people might have a problem with it. And I'll be brief in what I say (no spoilers for anyone) but I was concerned for a while that Zo was going to be characterized as a martyr. But I don't think that's the case. And I so agree about Banner. She is amazing!!
DeleteMrs Everything looks really good, and I love that you are taking your time and savouring it. I'm hearing great things about Red, White & Royal Blue too. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI'm about 30% in to Mrs. Everything and really enjoying it. It's interesting how the time period (currently the 1960's) shapes their lives.
DeleteI keep seeing Red, White and Royal Blue around. Seems to get good feedback so I hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently finishing up I Heart Hawaii by Lindsey Kelk. :)
I see so many raves about Kelk but have to read anything by her.
DeleteYour books look great! I am reading The Stationary Shop by Marjan Kamali.
ReplyDeleteThat one sounds so interesting. And I don't think I've ever read a book set in Iran.
DeleteCurrently reading Storm and Fury and loving it!
ReplyDeleteGenesis @ Whispering Chapters
Yay! So glad you're loving Storm and Fury! It was a big hit for me. The scenes with Roth were everything. :)
DeleteI do want to read Storm and Fury (The Harbinger #1) - Jennifer L. Armentrout, I've read her book before and loved it, should have read more from her
ReplyDeleteArmentrout is one of my go-to authors. She never disappoints. :)
DeleteRed, White, Royal Blue is all the hype right now Tanya!!! I hope you'll love it as well!
ReplyDeleteMy expectations are so high... hopefully it lives up to them!
DeleteI'm getting so irritated with my library about Red, White & Royal Blue. I've been at the available in a few days stage for weeks now lol Read faster people!!!
ReplyDeleteKaren @ For What It's Worth
Isn't that so frustrating! It's like, seriously people, just because the loan is for 3 weeks doesn't mean you have to keep the book all 3 weeks! Gah!
DeleteI'm starting Mrs. Everything today so hopefully we both love that one. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on Red, White and Royal Blue!
ReplyDeleteI’m finding that I am reading Mrs. Everything in big chunks. Once I start reading I don’t want to put it down. I’m so pulled in to these sister’s lives. I hope you’re enjoying it, too!
DeleteI'm so behind on authors. I have yet to try Kennedy Ryan :( Good luck with all your books. I hope you love them all
ReplyDeleteThanks Jessica! :)
