The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer | 
Can anyone recommend this series? I found them on my walk this morning to the LFL up the hill & thought they sounded interesting. I took the day off today as I was unwell last night & didn‘t get much sleep but am feeling well enough today to get out on this glorious spring day & also do some spring cleaning. Anyone else watching the queen‘s funeral tonight? My cousin Craig, who lives in London, has been invited and is going. What I wouldn‘t give!

I wanted to love this since I was pulled into the writing right away. But it was just a bit too YA with a solid dose of misogyny. It would have been much better with college-age characters.
I'm hoping to still finish out a few books in January but am excited to start off with a new month for #BookSpinBingo. The tagged book has managed to move through multiple lists and has been on my TBR for years, so it will definitely be a priority in February.
Day 5
This is a great YA horror/paranormal/mystery trilogy. I finished each book within a day. One of three YA trilogies/series that I felt were worth being purchased in its entirety. Plus I love the covers. If anyone decides to pick this up, I do NOT recommend the Noah Shaw continuation series. It‘s incredibly slow paced and uneventful.

pickThis book was eerily amazing! I absolutely loved the plot, the overall storyline was just so creepy and unsettling, the world building was so odd in a good way, and I really enjoyed the whole atmosphere of the book. The characters were so well developed, I loved the questionable choices Mara makes and dont even get me started on my new book boyfriend Noah Shaw 🖤 This is one of my favourites I've read this year. Plus I need the sequel like now!
pick😱 this was a nonstop read kind of book. Once I picked it up, I COULD NOT put it back down.
panUh...yeah so this starts out with a whole lot of potential and...didn‘t deliver. At all. I found it on a list of books all adults should have to read and frankly I‘m wondering why anyone should bother. If you pick it up for the paranormal storyline (guilty here) you will be disappointed greatly. Hard pass here.
so-so
the unbecoming of mara dyer is about a young teenage girl that had to move to florida to help her mend with the unexpected death of her best friend rachel. She then figures out she might be the reason for it.
pickI loved this book and series so much! i couldn‘t put them down. The romance and Chemistry between the main characters is perfect and it doesn‘t distract you from the main plot of the story.
Page 346/452 !! Nothing like #24in48 to boost my reading speed
Some title just call me like a siren song. These are 10 titles that I had to read. They're lyrical or have a play on words that was too intriguing.
Anyone else have titles that were irresistible? Did they live up to their allure?

Before I start I have to say that I did not finish this trilogy yet. (But I am looking forward to)
❄
This is a really cool paranormal ya trilogy that pulls you in and keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time.
❄
Mara is an unreliable character, so you will never be 100% sure of what is really going on.
Maybe that's the reason I fell in love with these books.. I don't know.
Read the synopsis and give it a try.❄
so-soNot going to lie. Not my favorite. Noah makes me swoon. I want to punch Mara in her ovaries but she‘d probably kill me with her weird paranormal powers. The author just couldn‘t pull off a combination of paranormal YA/romance/mystery/thriller.
pickI finished this one as an ebook during breaks at work. Perfect spooky YA. It really kept my attention, made me want to keep reading to find out what happens, and what's real. Had a few spooky scenes, too!
For my first #SeriesFeature, one of my very favorite book series: the Mara Dyer trilogy. I was drawn in from the first page by Mara, a protagonist who is multi-faceted in an unusual way. Certain parts of Mara are hidden away even from herself until later on in the series, which links the reader and the main character on a journey of discovery. I loved the genre mash up as well, which includes mystery, sci-fi, horror, and YA. #youngadultfiction
panI picked this up knowing everyone raves about it, and hoping it would live up to the hype but oh my god I hated reading this book.

pickI cannot describe how engrossed I was in this story. I think, if I added up the hours I read, I read The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer in a day! I haven't been this enthralled for a while, but to put it all out there, I love a good angsty romance, LOVE IT. But I love it even more when an angsty romance is sprinkled with some paranormal activity and an overarching mystery.
pickA serious page-turner for me! A great mixture of mystery and a little horror, along with a very interestingly unreliable narrator.
Excited to read the next one!
pickOkay but THIS BOOK!!!! The ending KILLED ME and I'm so desperate to read the next one which is sitting right on the shelf because I got half way through this incredible book and ran out to the store to get the next two in case I finished tonight which I now have at 12:30am Adelaide time but I have been banned from reading and told to "go to sleep" because I have "things to do tomorrow" and SEND HELP I MUST KNOW WHAT HAPPENS
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
pickOverall, the story and mystery of this book are amazing. However, after reading it a second time after my tastes have progressed, I realized that the characters were incredibly cheap and the writing style was very WattPad fanfiction writer-like. I still liked the book and I'm excited to continue my reread of the series but.. now I know I guess
pickAaaaa yeah, this book! The description on the dustjacket is not serving it any justice. Yes, there's a handsome boy, a girl and beating hearts but there's so much more to this story. This is the first book in a trilogy about Mara, and (ofcourse) ends with a cliffhanger. The most breathtaking cliffhanger ever 👌

The Mara Dyer series is and always will be one of my favourites ❤️
What are some of your favourite series?
I feel like one of the only people in the YA #horror/#paranormal fandom who hasn't read this trilogy yet. 😧 I've heard such mixed reviews but I bought the box set from BookOutlet a while back and I'm really hoping I like it.
pickHighly recommend this one and am looking forward to continuing the trilogy. The romance here is captivating and the supernatural elements keep you hooked in.????? 5 cookie rating!! I've determined that cookies will be my new rating system. Stars seemed too boring. And one should never ask, "why cookies?" Why not cookies, I say ?
so-soI don't know why but I never got fully invested in this story. Not even the romance, which I've heard so many good things about, could really win me over. I might continue with the series at some point but for now I'm moving on to other things.
pickThis was one of the books that really got me back into reading after years. Mara Dyer went through a tragic experience after an asylum collapsed killing her two friends and her boyfriend. Mara soon regains her memory and realized that the building didn't only collapse because it was only but because Mara is capable of hurting or killing things with her mind. Great book.
Thinking something does not make it true. Wanting something does not make it real.
Went through my Kindle last night and I haven't asked for recs on these! (I have all the ones from previous posts written down!) What is a MUST READ? What's a bust?
pick🌟Yesterday's #bingeread ! I loved it and I can't wait to read the rest of the series.🌟 #ya #michellehodkin #paranormal #romance #mystery #horror #supernatural
pan*fart noise* This book wouldn't be half bad if it wasn't so focused on the romance with a rich English asshole. The plot, despite how interesting it could have been, was shelved to serve the romance. Confusing prose and I called every plot twist before it happened. Will not be reading the sequel.
This YA train has no brakes. ✌🏼️
panI finished this book the other day. The author had such an awesome opportunity with the concept for this book and it just feel flat. I was so hopeful and then was not impressed.
