Just answer three questions and share what you're reading.
All my moaning about the serious lack of winter this year worked! LOL We seem to be getting a last blast of winter with unseasonably cold temps. It's dipped into the 30's the last few nights and temps are staying in the 50's during the day. Go ahead and laugh, my northern friends (I know you are! LOL) but that's cold for Florida in March! I'm loving it, though. It'll be way too hot, way too soon so I'll take the cold for as long as it lasts! :)
WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY READING?
A Court of Frost and Starlight (ACOTAR #3.1) - Sarah J. Maas
I've heard time and time again that people were disappointed in this one, that nothing of importance happens, that it can be skipped... but guess what? I don't care. :) It's been almost two years since A Court of Wings and Ruin and I miss these characters. I love revisiting them, I love the different points of view, I love the peek into their lives since the war with Hybern. I'm eating this one up with a spoon and enjoying every bite. ♥
I started the audio version of Watching You on Sunday and I'm slowly getting pulled in. Lisa Jewell has a way of doling out information bit by bit that is seemingly innocuous but as it starts to pile up you can just feel something looming on the horizon.
WHAT DID YOU RECENTLY FINISH READING?
This book! Oh my goodness, I have so much love for Josh and Hazel and their story. Never have two people belonged together more. They were so precious and their story did my heart good. Plus, this one was riotously funny and I laughed my way through page after page. And an epilogue that gave me all the feels. Another big, big hit from CLo!
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'LL READ NEXT?
Plenty of options of what to read next. I have Gentleman Sinner from the library. I've never read anything by Malpas but the synopsis of this one caught my eye. Restore Me is high on the list. I want to get caught up with the Shatter Me series, especially since a new novella (Shadow Me) just released yesterday and Defy Me comes out in April. I'm dying to read Daisy Jones and The Six. I predict that it will be one of my favorites of the year. And then there's What the Wind Knows, Be The Girl and I Want You Back also in the mix.
What are you currently reading?
I wanna know! :)
I wanna know! :)
Haha And here I am hoping for winter to be OVER. We've had our fill of it in the midwest. Watching You looks fantastic, I hope you enjoy!
ReplyDeleteTotally enjoying Watching You and I have about 50 different theories at this point. LOL
DeleteWhat the Wind Knows looks AMAZING. I really want to read that. Thinking about getting a copy.
ReplyDeleteNever read anything by Maas. I really want to try books by Lisa Jewell.
Amy Harmon is one of my favorites so I have such high expectations for What the Wind Knows. Hopefully we'll both love it! I've been reading Lisa Jewell for almost 20 years now. From the early days when she was writing chick lit/romance to now when she's turned to mystery/thrillers. Love her writing!
DeleteI'm so happy you enjoyed Josh and Hazel! I loved all her pets, especially Winnie the Poodle!! ;)
ReplyDeleteLindsi @ Do You Dog-ear? 💬
Yes, Winnie the Poodle. So cute. The fact that the dog loved Josh as much as she did should have told her something. :)
DeleteWould you recommend Watching You in audio Tanya? And I am reading Naked Love by Jewel E Ann. So funny!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying the audio version of Watching You! The narrator is a new one to me but she does a great job and I can easily differentiate between characters. Now if I could just figure out what happened and who did what! LOL
DeleteOh we were in Florida for some really warm weather last week. It was low eighties but felt hotter I liked that Lisa Jewell book and loved Josh and Hazel too. Looks like you have a lot of good options to read next!
ReplyDeleteYou timed it perfectly! We had that week of really warm weather and then *poof* winter came back.
DeleteIt's been way too cold here, but I'm glad you're enjoying the chill in Florida.
ReplyDeleteI just finished Sky Without Stars yesterday (loved it) and I'm reading a couple of Middle Grade books from the library before I start reading Seige & Storm: The Evertree by Marie Lu and The Land of Yesterday by K.A. Reynolds.
I started Siege & Storm last year and just wasn't getting into at the time and set it aside for a while. I need to pick that one back up soon. Hope you're enjoying it!
DeleteYou go, Tanya! That's right, read what you want. There a lot of people out there, who hated Josh & Hazel too. Even disappointing SJM books have been good for me. You have a lot of choices lined up there. I liked Restore Me. Crazy stuff happened - some made me mad, some made me sad, others made me want more.
ReplyDeleteYes! I swear, I don't know if I've seen even ONE review raving about A Court of Frost and Starlight. Everyone says the same thing: wasn't necessary, didn't add anything, blah blah blah. But you know what? I'm fine with it! I guess it's considered a novella and it just meant to bridge the original series with the new one. And if it's just a small look at familiar characters, so be it. Cause I'm loving it! :)
DeleteI accidentally read the synopsis for Defy Me and I'm worried it spoiled me something from Restore Me or Shadow Me. And now I'm worried. Ack!
That is cold for Florida! And I seriously need to get to Watching You. It keeps getting pushed aside but I may make that one my next read!
ReplyDeleteI was doing the same thing with Watching You but finally nabbed the audio from the Overdrive app and dived right in. Now I have tons of theories about who did it even though I don't even know who was murdered yet. Ha!
DeleteYaay I knew you'd love Josh and Hazel, they're just so much fun.
ReplyDeleteACOFAS is skippable, but let's be honest: we read it for Rhys.
ACOFAS may not add anything earth shattering to the series overall, but I'm still loving be back with these characters. :)
DeleteI really want to read Daisy Jones, Josh and Hazel, and Watching You. Looks like you're enjoying your reads lately!!!

I've been lucky with some really good ones lately.
DeleteI really wish they'd announce the release date for the next phase of the ACOTAR series. I'm ready for more! :(
ReplyDeleteSame here! GoodReads shows a 2020 release for the 4th book which seems sooo far away!
DeleteYeah, what is with this weird cold front?? I am NOT loving it lol. I really need to get caught up with the Shatter Me series, but at this point I'd also need to reread the first three, so I figure I might as well just wait until all the books are out lol. I hope you enjoy whatever yo uread next!
ReplyDeleteIt's been so long since I read Ignite Me that I should probably do a re-read, too.
DeleteI hope its Restore Me. I got the first and read it in a day from the library and now I want to read the whole series, I just don't have the time so I have to read everyone's review of it. I already know I will love it but still. I have to live through other readers right now. =)
ReplyDeleteMary
I very rarely read reviews before I read a book. I'm always worried a review will unknowingly spoil it for me.
