Permalink Reply by Navdha on June 10, 2012 at 9:32am Such a small question but I don't really know what to tell you about it. Saying that it's a book based on WW-II is just not enough. Saying that it's about two girl friends, one a spy and the other a pilot, who became friends during that time, would still not be enough.
If you read or can read historical fiction, then you should give it a go.
Here's a little extract from goodreads:
I have two weeks. You’ll shoot me at the end no matter what I do.
That’s what you do to enemy agents. It’s what we do to enemy agents. But I look at all the dark and twisted roads ahead and cooperation is the easy way out. Possibly the only way out for a girl caught red-handed doing dirty work like mine — and I will do anything, anything, to avoid SS-Hauptsturmführer von Linden interrogating me again.
He has said that I can have as much paper as I need. All I have to do is cough up everything I can remember about the British War Effort. And I’m going to. But the story of how I came to be here starts with my friend Maddie. She is the pilot who flew me into France — an Allied Invasion of Two.
We are a sensational team.

Permalink Reply by Lynette ツ on June 11, 2012 at 1:33pm I enjoy the romance aspect of the Infernal Devices much better than that of the Mortal Instruments series.
I didn't have as much emotion put into the relationships of the Mortal Instrument as I did Infernal Devices. ID hurt my heart on several different occasions because I felt so involved with the characters.
I do prefer the action and plot of MI, though. At least the first three books.

Permalink Reply by Lynette ツ on June 11, 2012 at 1:28pm I just finished City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare.
I feel this was that book within a series that explains a lot, and I thought it was rather slow for a good two-thirds of it. I felt there was a lot of relationship development between the characters. And I started to forget why I loved Jace so much, up until the end of the book. On the other hand, my love for Simon grew while reading this book.
That last third or so of the book was awesome, though. XD I don't know how many times I squealed or jumped up. I really enjoyed reading this ending. I can't wait for the next one. ^-^
Permalink Reply by Buffy on June 16, 2012 at 9:50am I felt the same way about the first 2/3 of the book. I thought that it was because I was so busy with work, but the fact of the matter was that it WAS a bit slow. It really did pick up towards the end. Have you read the Infernal Devices series too? I'm really looking forward to the final book coming out too. :)
Permalink Reply by a genesi[s] of number[s] on June 12, 2012 at 4:35am I'm reading like 10 books right now, honestly. But the one I'm working on the most is The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan. It's just a reread for me, but I honestly love this book.
