So I was reading Bonne Foi by Amethyst Jackson and it was going well. It was a mostly well written story and the lemons didn't annoy me. But then *spoiler alert*Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.It's really weird how one small thing that seems to have to occur in a vampire story just annoyed me. I guess because the story had been fairly AU as far as the storyline went. Then suddenly we were back in SM's story doing the same thing as every one else. So I read The Sun Must Set to Rise by DazzlinSparkle05 which was beta'd by our very own Astro2009! And just finished Saturday. You are not allowed to view links. Register or LoginEdward is a CEO who runs away from the mess his life has become. Bella lives on an island without much communication with the outside world with her daughter. The story really starts three years later when the outside world finds him again. It was a quick read. Something different. What is everyone else reading?
I saw that TSMStR was finished I kind of skimmed it while it was a WIP but she took a while to update sometimes so I might just read that next, now that I've finished And Then There Was You - liked the angst for a bit before I got bored it and some of SPAG is just headache inducing.Also just finished Breaking the Abusive Silence by Ms. Jessica Cullen - started off quite well but then the authors age really started to show through (she turned 15 while writing it) - like someone getting arrested and then the very next day there is a court case which involved a sentencing as well and Bella teasing Edward about sex even though he suffers from hypersexuality. So I really need something good to read, or might just have to ram my head into the nearest wall.
I'm immersed in oldies. I'm reading Illegal Contact by GreeneyedGirl17, Decoy by 107yearoldvirgin and I just finished re-reading Master of the Universe (although I'm still reading outtakes). Plus I have several WIPs I follow, but I won't mention them until they complete since so many of you have WIPhobia.
I started And Then There Was You but didn't make it passed the first chapter. I know everyone seems to like it. But if I'm going to read abuse it's got to be, I want to say believable, but that's probably not the right word. It made me think it was written by a whiny teenager. I really have to be in the mood for what twific authors call angst to read it I guess. It probably didn't help that I tried reading it after reading Cris's As Children at Play. She does angst so well. So, back to the search I guess. On FB, one of the ladies who I believe is on mostly bedrest due to a difficult pregnancy has been doing lists of recs by subject. She pulls a category out of a hat and everyone responds. I've found some good stories that way. (And some bad) I'll let you know if anything good pops up.
I don't mind WIPs if they are reliable updaters. I'm currently reading only two - Drotuno's Man Behind the Mask. A Musicward. Really good so far. Also Nolebucgrl's Cockyback sequel. I love pretty much anything she writes. Which reminds me. I think I have 2 of her real books that I need to read. Granted, they aren't Bella and Edward. But what the heck.
I'm reading the Cockyback sequel, too. And I'm following several WIPs by LyricalKris. Plus The Bull Rider by Edward'sEternal and the new jonesn story, Clallam.
Lol, reading your WIP list is like I'm liking at my own hun as I'm reading the same ones.
We have such good taste!
Thanks, I will check them out. EdwardsEternal writes well, but I tend to have problems with her character descriptions. Bella does not have big blue eyes. Though if Edward has green eyes and wild bronze colored hair, I can deal. I just started Volunteer 13 and Bella has blue eyes again. Sigh. I don't think I have read too many LyricalKris. She does a lot of non B/E right? That's the only reason I can think of as to why I keep moving her stories down the TBR list.
I'm in a reading rut [emoji19] the fic I'm reading I REALLY REALLY want to finish but I just can't seem to pick up my phone to read it.
Have you tried to pick up a one shot? Sometimes it helps to step away shortly and come back to it.
What is everyone else reading?
Thanks [emoji8] I think I'll try that in the morning since it's close to 1am
