I pick this oArmentrout was one of my swore off author. I have read 2 of her books and didn 't like it . Yup thats enough to be in my swore off list.
I pick this one with not much expectation . Its pretty decent to read . I am intriguied by the world and its mysteries like what is maiden for ? and taking the 3rd and 4th child to the gods hmm interesting. Whats gonna happen at Poppy ascention??? History of the Atlantian and vampyre??? I also enjoy Poppy and Hawke's romance.
Plot twist and Revelation wise is really predictable , like most of those cliche twist you have probably seen before if you pick up any other YA fantasy in recent years. I don't have a problem with predictable as long as the story itself is interesting enough.
Armentrout might have just gone off my swore off list hahaha...more

I was a bit bored of reading about the relationship melodrama between Brandon, Em and Christopher or them being on the run from Robert Stark. And Em constantly worrying and fretting over shit.
I was glad I read over that part pretty quickly and get to the good part where the gang finally take Robert Stark down. That was pretty epic...more

The suspense is great and the ending is definitI don't like the message in this book regarding sexting. Despite that , I did enjoyed this book a lot. The suspense is great and the ending is definitely satisfying
Revenge of the Sluts shows you the repercussion and aftermath of sexting and how all the school newspaper editor fight against the school administration to print about the sexting incident. This book also opens up conversation about sexuality and feminism.
The misguided attempt to scare people out of sending photos to willing recipients rather than explain why photos of others shouldn't be shared without permission
Firstly , let me start by saying how problematic this statement is and how stupid those girls who got their sexy photos leak, especially Sloane.
Sexting is not wrong, its not illegal and its between 2 willing participants. And yes photos of others shouldn't be shared without permission. And if ppl want to sext , thats certainly none of my business. I mean Kim K got to where she is because of a sex tape so why not LOL
The girls happily sext but then when shit hits the fan and the photo got leak. They cry about how no criminal action will be taken and wish they are all 17. Let me tell you this, if you are adult enough to send sexy photo , then you should be adult enough to deal with the consequences and KNOW about the consequences. Internet is forever and sometimes the person didn't even send out the photos intentionally. THey might lost their phone or someone steal their phone. You never know what can happen. So make sure you can really trust that person before you send to them or make them delete it upon receiving it.
I am not trying to victim blame. I mean no one want their sexy photo leaking out. But I am also pro I would do anything to protect myself. Just because you are an adult and doing something is legal , doesn't mean that something is without consequences.
I don't remember much from the first book but this one supposed to be a new set of characters as the previous set went to college. I don't know. FrMeh
I don't remember much from the first book but this one supposed to be a new set of characters as the previous set went to college. I don't know. From the start, we are thrown into a bunch of characters which I hardly know about. I can barely tell who's who and their relationship
This time the game is different because the targeted person have to pick Truth or Dare and really its not much difference than the previous game and it does not up the stakes either.
That ending. Is that supposed to be a cliffhanger? (view spoiler)[How Emma and Phobe little brother going to hide his involvement? (hide spoiler)]...more
I won't say reading this is totally a torture but I am so bored like 90% of it. Vhalla visiting friends I think I might even want to give this 1 stars
I won't say reading this is totally a torture but I am so bored like 90% of it. Vhalla visiting friends , Vhalla throwing herself a pity party . We always have to hear about how awesome Vhalla and how the whole world owes her because she single handedly win the war.... meh. Not to mention that Aldrik is absent in most of the book
Do you expect us to be shock when Victor turn out to be the bad guy? We even have characters warning Vhalla about Victor and Vhalla is still shock when Victor turn out to be evil lol.
Baldair's death is so unnecessary. I don't know why but I can just tell when someone is kill off for the sake of building up the MC. Baldair is a prop character to begin with , its no surprise that he is so useless and can be kill off to show Aldrik off. The book went on for so long being boring, then boom Baldair is dead...more

It was nice getting a glimpse of what's going on behind the events from the first book and the relationship dynamic of Cardan, Nicasia and Locke. I hope we get a book from Locke because he is such an interesting villain. I also enjoyed the story Aslog told Cardan. ...more

I love Katie Cotugno but this wasn't her best. I like the angst in her books but Meg and Colby just come across as annoying and have their head up their ass. Colby who is always so insecure when he is near Meg because of him working at Home Depo and not going to College. Then Meg who would go off on Colby because she found him doesn't care about the political and social issues she cares about. And then she would go off on Colby and Colby would go off on her because he thinks she is bothered by his issues. But they are cute together when they don't have their issues
Overall a somewhat enjoyable read but the source of their angst pisses me off...more
The Queen of Attolia is not as boring as the first book , but still boring. Its a lot of filler and militaBR with Idiot Sandwich Girl. But she DNF :(
The Queen of Attolia is not as boring as the first book , but still boring. Its a lot of filler and military talk. We know nothing of the war then the characters will suddenly talk about the war moving forward and what happened bla bla bla. All talk and no action. Me and Idiot Sandwich wasn't really into that much of military talk. Military strategy books can be fun like how The Poppy War is. But The Queen of Attolia is all military talk and less of plot twist and character development
Then Idiot Sandwich DNF . I was kinda glad at first because I was getting kinda sick of it as well. But then I saw there wasn't a lot left so I decided to pull through and I am glad I did. There is finally some twist and turns , although I would say I am pretty surprise by the romance that sprang out of nowhere . (view spoiler)[ Never in a million years that I would have thought Eugenides and Attolia would have a thing for each other (hide spoiler)] But it did spice things up so why not. Attolia was also an intriguing character. I couldn't quite grasp her personality and motivation and I found her to be more likable. She wasn't as tough as she potray herself to be all this time. Besides that , I still had no idea how the Gods play into the whole story and why they betray Euginides like that??? The Gods is not being talk about much and suddenly they command the chain of events hmmm that makes me kinda confused . And what about Hephatia's Gift from the first book??? it didn't play any significance in the second book?
Overall it was ok. Enough to make me want to continue with the series...more
Peak my interest in the beginning but went totally downhill after that.
I enjoyed books like Suddenly Forbidden which is very dramatic and angsty. ButPeak my interest in the beginning but went totally downhill after that.
I enjoyed books like Suddenly Forbidden which is very dramatic and angsty. But I read 2 more books from Ella Fields and I am thoroughly dissapointed. When there isn't enough drama or plot twist, you will got those extensive description of love or inner monologue with Ella Fields.
The first half is a lot of boring flashbacks. I wanted to find out what Raiden did to Audra to make her hate him so much but those flashbacks can really be cut out. Most of it useless and don't serve much purpose. It also doesn't help that Audra gets on my nerve. She act so cold and tough but she was such a stupid girl who was fretting over Raiden and causing her whole kingdom got invaded and soldiers dies. She could have save herself a lot of unneccesary trouble if she just let Raiden be. Stupid childish bitch.
Second half is slightly better. But the love triangle really got a bit much, to the point of being tedious. Audra jump from one person bed to another and running her smart mouth uselessly. With all her tough bitch exterior , she can be very indecisive and don't have much control over her vagina.
There are quite a few of really violent scenes in here. I am surprise because I don't expect them from Ella Fields. But violent scene don't make the whole book. I don't think I can read the Second Book if Audra don't stop being a bitch...more
Meh I thought Book 1 and Book 2 are ok . But I can see what pattern this book is going forward and I did not like it.
This book is a continuation of tMeh I thought Book 1 and Book 2 are ok . But I can see what pattern this book is going forward and I did not like it.
This book is a continuation of the second book which I can barely remembers with Cahill on the run with Ferda. So Yelena and the gang went on a chase . A lot of info dumping about the magic system thrown at you . And Yelena is such a dull character with no distinct personality. Plus, I don't like a book much where there is a lot of action and barely any plot other than the action. Never once was I even remotely interested in how the plot is going. ...more
I don't get why I keep seeing "loosely based on R. Kelly" on this book. A majority of this is based on R. Kelly (view spoiler)[ peeing in the bucket, I don't get why I keep seeing "loosely based on R. Kelly" on this book. A majority of this is based on R. Kelly (view spoiler)[ peeing in the bucket, locked in a room, Korey being religious, hunting for prey at high school, major R&B star (hide spoiler)] . I think its also a book best going in without knowing about what R. Kelly did.
Nevertheless , like Allengedly, Tiffany D Jackson always keep the suspense coming . I was pretty engrossed for the majority of this book . I have also read My Dark Vanessa earlier so I can't help but make comparison since both have the same subject matter. But I think I like Grown better. Korey is so manipulative and totally give you the creeps , yet I still want to believe he love Enchanted. I find it so hard to imagine there are people out there who would say things that are against conscience to get what they want.
The ending . I felt like things ended way too easy for Korey . I would have expected more of a fight or revenge or him getting what he deserved or he is at least being remorseful for what he done(view spoiler)[ Death for him felt like way too easy (hide spoiler)]...more

I like the druggie perspective it gave me. What are books if not giving you experience into something that you have never experience and will never get the experience to feel it. Its fascinating to see how someone can spiral out of control with painkillers and drugs and also the effects it can have on our brains and actions.
However , the story get boring for a while after reading over and over how the MC always wanting her next fix bla bla and always discussing how to get her next fix...more
