Bout of Books Day 1 Wrap Up

Ann:

Today I finished off Songs About a Girl which I loved although now I am really desperate for the next book! And then I read the first 30 pages of Famous in Love.

Clare:

Finished Origin by Jessica Khoury. This was a good read though not necessarily as great as I was expecting it to be. Definite hints of insta-love and I cared less about the romance than I did the science elements. I was slightly less interested in Vitro which surprised me as the plot actually originally interested me more. But I felt like, although the action was there, the emotional attachment to the characters wasn't so much. And then the final book in the series Kalahari was definitely my favourite. The action scenes were exciting and the characters were, generally, ones I believed and cared in. The fact that I finished all three books in one day will probably tell you how addictive Khoury's writing is (and also how stupidly can't-leave-the-house ill I am). All in all I had a really great start to Bout of Books!!
