Elle Kennedy – Briar U Series Reading Order (and signed book giveaway!!!)

By 38 Comments

SQUEEE!!!! I just LOVE this author, and can’t get enough of her “Off Campus” series (I devoured and 5-star loved them) and this is the spinoff! 😀 YAY US!!! We’re already two books in and a third up for preorder!

Sakshi: I have loved Elle Kennedy’s past works and I am so excited to read this one!

About book #1:

Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother. read more

Penny Reid – Law of Physics Series Reading Order

By Leave a Comment

OMG YOU GUYS LOOKIT!!!! All books are up for preorder (one a month from this month to April) AND book #1 is going live in just a few days. Considering how HUGELY popular her “Elements of Chemistry/Hypothesis Series” is, I bet this one will rock readers’ worlds too!

P.S. This trilogy must be read in order.

About book #1:

One week.
Home alone.
Girl genius.
Unrepentant slacker.
Big lie.

What’s the worst that could happen?

Mona is a smart girl and figured everything out a long time ago. She had to. She didn’t have a choice. When your parents are uber-celebrities and you graduate from high school at fifteen, finish college at eighteen, and start your PhD program at nineteen, you don’t have time for distractions outside of your foci. Even fun is scheduled. Which is why Abram, her brother’s best friend, is such an irritant. read more

M.J. Fields – Firsts Series Reading Order

By 1 Comment

Book #4 just went live! 😀

The author says:

1. Told in two married couples POV’s ( & some Lucas Links )

2. You must read Her First Kiss and His First Crush, first. (Could read 27 Truths and 27 Lies before that… but may want to kill me cause they are super angsty, have a love triangle and bad things happen)

3. Lots of sexy time.

4. Emotional AF.

YES PLEASE!! BRING ON THE ANGST!!!!! So be sure to ALSO check out (maybe even FIRST): 27 Truths: Ava’s story (The Truth About Love Book 1) & 27 Lies: Luke’s story (The Truth About Love Book 2) – obviously these are from another of her series, however they appear to crossover. 😀 read more

Reader Question – The book with the girl that woke up one morning in her dorm floating…

By Leave a Comment

An author sent this one in (’cause she’s a reader too!!). I’m starting with this one first one ’cause she auto-guessed it herself.

LOL!!!

But still, it sounds awesome and since these reader questions help us find new books to read I figured I’d post it anyway if this is up your reading alley too. 😉

Author Stacey Lynn asks:

Hey Maryse! I have a book question for you and I know you have to know the answer to this  😀

Many years ago, around the time of when Jamie McGuire had the Providence Trilogy out, there was a YA/New Adult College Aged vampire series. read more

Colleen Hoover – Maybe Someday Series Reading Order

By 2 Comments

GASP!!!!!! Who knew there’d be a reading order for one of my favorite books from a few years ago, but as of now, there is! SURPRISE!! Ever since Colleen Hoover surprised us a day ago with a book #2 (totally unexpected – at least for me!!) well… it’s time for a dedicated series post. Who knows if she’ll come up with more, but in the meantime, I’m going to celebrate this gift!

<— Book #1 was one of her angsty, forbiddeny, yet totally unique and clever reads, and I just can’t forget it. In fact… here’s my review! And now we have a full length sequel!!! read more
