I think the series will end up being phenomenal, but it may be one to wait until at least the second book is out. I keep saying I'm not going to start any new series, but it's pretty much impossible. If I do that, I won't be reading any new releases. *sigh* ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122122426051336537.post-89973039515647770292014-03-19T19:53:04.398-05:002014-03-19T19:53:04.398-05:00Yay, so glad you loved The Winner's Curse too!...Yay, so glad you loved The Winner's Curse too! I had the same fears, that I would be disappointed after all the hype but it was every bit as good as promised. <br /><br />Reading your review of Half Blood is the first i've actually taken the time to read what it was about. I've just keep hearing everyone talking about it. I am intrigued by the half white witch, half black witch idea, but it doesn't sound like it blew you away so I'll take my time getting to itNicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18339884453331050427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122122426051336537.post-34518823962850961532014-03-17T08:25:59.692-05:002014-03-17T08:25:59.692-05:00So many good books out there…hope you enjoy them a...So many good books out there…hope you enjoy them as much as I did! ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122122426051336537.post-25721234259644687142014-03-16T10:56:30.535-05:002014-03-16T10:56:30.535-05:00This features three books that I really want to re...This features three books that I really want to read and so I am happy that you enjoyed all of them!

I try to get as many as I can from the library, but sometimes I just can't wait. <br /><br />Glad you loved Half Bad and you're right, no cliffhanger ending, which was nice. I will definitely be reading the next book, which I think will even be better. ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122122426051336537.post-68882278174343815972014-03-16T08:01:07.159-05:002014-03-16T08:01:07.159-05:00I agree, I think the second book is going to be mo...I agree, I think the second book is going to be more substantial. Of course, by the time it's out, I'll already have forgotten what the first one was about. These series are killing me! :) ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122122426051336537.post-76186960839855485872014-03-16T07:59:58.533-05:002014-03-16T07:59:58.533-05:00I would recommend Half Bad, and I think it's g...I would recommend Half Bad, and I think it's going to be one of those series that gets better and better. ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122122426051336537.post-28271426995059098762014-03-15T15:04:02.158-05:002014-03-15T15:04:02.158-05:00White Hot Kiss!!

I got an Amazon gift card for my bday though so maybe I will buy it. And you know how I felt about Half Bad. Really enjoyed it, although I do have a lot of questions like you, but I think we'll get the answers in the next book. I also liked that there wasn't a huge cliffhanger ending.

Wasn't it so good?? :) And I'm with you about the ending. I can't wait for the next book! I have heard some mixed things about Half-Bad, but I think I might like that series. I'm going to wait for the next book before I pick it up though. One blogger said she thought it felt almost like a prequel and that the next book will probably be more substantial and really get into the world. She had lots of questions too.Tressa @ Wishful Endingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13526748955941114672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122122426051336537.post-45878277937417458582014-03-14T20:04:39.799-05:002014-03-14T20:04:39.799-05:00I'm glad you enjoyed The Winner's Curse.

I've heard some mixed things about Half Bad, but most of my buddies seem to be enjoying it. I don't like that you don't get to know more about the world, but I'm glad you liked it for the most part. I'll have to check it out. Natalie @Natflix&Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12738039522965794238noreply@blogger.com
