DickSoapGate

1. I hate when books get a bit silly like the tagged book, See Under Love, Foe, and I will never get over Her Fearful Symmetry. I just can‘t suspend disbelief 🤷‍♀️

2. The more people go on about ACOTAR the less I want to read it - same goes for Crawdads, Blood Orange and any domestic thriller

RaeLovesToRead I'm like that with films - I didn't watch Juno or Slumdog Millionaire for ages because everyone kept saying how great they are! 😅 With books, though, I'll take any excuse to read them! 🤣🤣 2y

TrishB These posts are funny 😁 I loved Her Fearful Symmetry! 2y

Vansa 😱😱Same issue with Her fearful symmetry! It was..... completely ridiculous. The entire ending was just so idiotic. How did she ever think.....dying was a good idea? 2y

julesG Read ACOTAR for #DickSoapGate and #LitsyAfterDark it's definitely on my "overrated" pile. 2y

RosePressedPages I finally tried ACOTAR after years of avoiding it and it was not worth it 🙃 bailed on book two and I still can‘t believe I finished book one 2y

julesG Oh no, she didn't?! 3y

butterbeerheist @julesG she did!! 3y

julesG Does that mean I have to read the whole ACOTAR series? I only read the first book, back when we had #DickSoapGate 3y

butterbeerheist @julesG omg I didn't know about the dick soap until now 😂 I don't think you HAVE to read them but yeah there's something in ACOSF that has to do with something in the CC series and now there's actual cross over of characters. 3y

Romancing Mr Bridgerton: Number 4 in series | Julia Quinn

While I was doing #audioyoga my cats claimed my bed.

The pillow case was in a #FairylootBox ages ago, or was it #OwlCrate? 🤔 Anyway, it seems to have become the cats' pillow, they flock to it. BTW, it's a Sarah J Maas quote, don't know which of her books though.

My Bridgerton reread on audio will continue later. I just received new fabric. #Audiosewing tomorrow. 😁 Now back to #MountARC.

#JoyousJanuary #readathon @Andrew65

HOTPock3tt I think the quote is from A court of wings and ruin 🤔 I‘ve read (and LOVED!) the series but it‘s been a while.... @julesG (edited) 4y

julesG @HOTPock3tt Thanks. I've only read ACOTAR as part of the #DickSoapGate readalong/buddyread. 4y

If I were abducted by a hot Faerie and “forced” to live in their mansion, I‘d simply be happy to be away from my bleak life as a peasant.
RIP to Feyre, but I‘m different

Idk guys, this came so highly recommended but I‘m almost halfway and it‘s not grabbing me like I thought it would.

*marked for spoilers but I don‘t think there are any, everything is mentioned in the blurb 🤷‍♀️

LibrarianRyan The #litsyafterdark group read this right after #dicksoapgate just too see what all the fuss was about. I finished it, but ehhhh. Haven‘t jumped to the sequel yet. I liked it, I didn‘t love it. And I don‘t get all the hoopla 4y

JessTedrick @LibrarianRyan I had to investigate what #dicksoapgate was and all I can say is yikes. Same here, I like it but I don‘t quite understand all the fuss. 4y

bailed

There are fantasy books with a romance thread/theme. Then there are romance books with a fantasy setting. This definitely is the latter and just not for me. Ugh.

julesG That's a very nice review of this book. I think I was harsher when I read it for #DickSoapGate 5y

bailed

I could not get into this book. I got about halfway and I was completely over it. I loved the beginning couple of chapters but after that it went downhill. As much as I wanted to love it (and I really did) I couldn‘t.

LibrarianRyan #LitsyAfterDark read it when #dicksoapgate was a thing. Most of us were like 🤷🏼‍♀️ as well. 5y

About to start my next read! Have no idea what it‘s going to be like because the guy at the bookstore recommended it to me! 🤭 Oh well atleast I‘ll get to enjoy a nice cuppa with Nutella banana bread 🤤 Has anyone read this? I‘d really like your thoughts about it! 😬

julesG You don't really want my thoughts about it. Trust me. What I remember is YA, masks, lots of snow, lots of trees,... Read it when #DickSoapGate was hot. One of the YA reads definitely not suited for a younger teenage audience 5y

BethM I adore this series! But I‘m also a YA fantasy fan. 5y

Mishu94 @julesG I literally just started reading it! 😂 I‘m on page 5! 😂😂🤦‍♂️ And I haven‘t really explored fantasy books! Like I have only read Harry Potter and the hunger games series! I would really love it if you could recommend me top notch books of this genre! 😁 5y

Mishu94 @BethM Oooh goody! Then you can give me a list of all the good ones you‘ve read! I really want to explore this genre more! 😁 5y

julesG A fantasy YA series that I liked is

The Complete Daughter of Smoke and Bone Trilogy

Mishu94 @julesG it‘s stacked! 😁 I‘ll read it once I finish this 😬 5y

Shley9225 Oooooh some other great YA fantasy is Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo, Cinder by Marissa Meyer (this one‘s a bit sci-fi but you‘ll like it), Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Ngan, The Cruel Prince by Holly Black, anything by Cassandra Clare, or something by Anna-Marie McLemore. Sorry this is so long, I tried to get you some variety bc I don‘t know your tastes too well :) 5y

Mishu94 @Shley9225 OMG! Thank you so so much for taking out the time and recommending these! 😭❤️ I‘ll check all of them out and whichever catches my attention, that shall go on my TBR 😁 5y

bewareofwords I love this series!! I will say that I liked the second book better, so if you get to the end of this first one and it‘s just okay, it‘s worth trying the second one. :) And @Shley9225 gave a really great fantasy YA list—I also LOVED the Throne of Glass series (also by Sarah J. Maas!). 💖 5y

Mishu94 @bewareofwords I have been reading it all day long! The story is slowly building up so let‘s see how that goes! And thank you so much, I‘ll definitely look it up! 😁 5y
