EliStar · September 2013

I am LOVING this book. Anyone else read it?

And how have I never read any WWI Historical Fiction before?

Savanna111911 · September 2013

I haven't read it yet but it's definitely on my TBR.

84Lauren · September 2013

OMG you MUST read Fall of Giants. You would love it.

I keep meaning to add this one to my list!

I want to read this SO BAD. I want to read all the books right now! I seriously just told SnShne that I need to slow down in buying so many books, but I really think I need this one.

Did you ever read Me Before You? Hmmm?? I feel like you didn't.

Nope, not yet. Everyone has told me it's depressing though, so I'm trying to space out the sadz. I've heard this one is a tearjerker, too, but it's my IRL book club's pick for the month so I'm reading this one first.

Wait! You still haven't read Me Before You?!?

Oh no, I want to read this but now I'm afraid, given our track record.

This is on my TBR. Loved Me Before You as well although I cried all the tears during it.

I have a feeling that @hoycie is to blame.

I ASSURE you I did not say it was depressing. It's a sad subject but the character relationships are great. I did not cry in this book.

84Lauren · September 2013

So you read Eleanor and Park, but won't read Me Before You because IT is depressing? NO.

That was not her! That was our other friend Dania. LOL. She told me not to read it because no one gets laid. But I'm going to read it anyway.

To be fair, I HAD NO IDEA Eleanor and Park was going to be depressing.

RIGHT? I had no clue. But the whole first half of the book, I was wondering how I never heard that it was so sad.

I read an ARC of The Girl You Left Behind and LOVED it! I am in major love with Jojo Moyes. Have you read Honeymoon in Paris yet? It's the prequel.

Nope, you don't have to read them in order. And either book can stand alone.

Both are fantastic!

I haven't read it yet but I won a copy from GR this summer and it's sitting on my book shelf now.
