Well.
That was the hottest hot mess I have ever read in my life.
And I've read Twilight.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
Well.

You finish Allegiant? (Also, did you get my email this morning?)
Yes and yes. And I'm very sad about the latter. A person in our party bowed out today so my friend and I are trying to decide if we're going to make it down or try to sell the tickets. Either way, we now have two tickets available.
Let me know if you come down and have time to stop for coffee or ice cream or whatnot. We have LOTS of whatnot.
And Allegiant, what the hell, right? Such a hot mess.
I'm hoping time for dinner. AND ALSO SOME WHATNOT.
As for Allegiant - I just don't even know. I'm so annoyed by it, I feel like I can't even process it.
Jilli, have you read "The Coldest Girl in Coldtown"? It's a vampire YA I kept thinking you would really enjoy. I did.
Also, I read Rae Carson's "The Girl of Fire and Thorns" trilogy, which I thought was well-done, with some good twists on your typical high fantasy YA.
Anyone read either of these?
I just read The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society the other day. I feel mildly uncomfortable about how endearing I found it. It's basically a pastoral romance pasted on top of a horrifying story of occupation, and it shouldn't work at all. And yet it does.
Did anyone else read this? What did you think?
I haven't read it yet, Consuela. But it's this month's book for my book group, so I probably will try to do so in the next week or so. I'm glad you liked it, even with problematic elements.
I just finished The War for the Oaks , based on recommendations from here (I'm pretty sure). I quite enjoyed it. I can't quite put a finger on what, exactly, I enjoyed. But it was engaging and kept me interested. I guess that's what matters, not LIT-rah-choor, but an interesting story that you want to keep reading.
