I'm gonna recap my week and give you an idea of what I have coming up plus anything else newsworthy!
Hello! How are you all, right non blog life out the way first, family are fine, work is fine, weather is shit.
Right now I have that out they way I want to talk about this.
I started reading Cinder!
Yes, that's right, even my dog (meet Fern!) loves it and even though I am only three quarters of the way through and I love it. I am totally having what I believe is called fangirl feels!!
It is well written, it has awesome characters and I want my own little android like Iko. Such sass from someone so metal. Reminds of my favourite robot Bender but without the alcoholism and kleptomania.
However I have a couple of worries/questions....
What if the next books are awful?
What if the next books are awesome and this series ruins every other book for me?
Is the Lunar Chronicles the most instagrammed book ever?
Any hoo, I love it. Plus the whole moon thing has me curious. The bad queen woman has just came to Earth and she seems a total bitch so I can't wait to see what shit she creates plus there are spin off books which hopefully will bring some background info to me.
Anyway it is great, I wish I had read it years ago!
Have a good week everyone!
I love my Funko collection and they have some create collections coming up notable Clueless and Battlestar Galactica!

Yay for Cinder!!! I think the next books are pretty awesome too. I still have to get to Winter though. Enjoy all your new books and have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Grace!
DeleteGlad you're loving the book so much. I've got the JD Robb and it's on my agenda next. Keen to hear what you think of Dead House.. it was a weird one.
ReplyDeleteSorry the weather's so shitty. It's a bit like that here at the moment as well but I'm hoping our storm season disappears as summer here starts to fade!
Still to get JD Robb read! Dead house does look a little different but I hope to read it soon!
DeleteThat's funny, love your little intro there. Weather is the same here, will be basically until March. Sick of it. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you're enjoying your book- the android sounds fun. LOL about Bendfer! Nice pic with your dog- she looks like a sweetie. :)
Have a super week!
I love Bender, I have a funko pop one of my own, he rules!!!! My dog is the best, soft and cuddly!
DeleteAhaha I knew it! You love Cinder! You will love the rest! Happy binge reading the series. ;)
ReplyDeleteI do, I love it, it is amazing!!!!
DeleteYour dog is gorgeous! I always wanted a dog when I was a kid but we never had one. Hope you enjoy your books!
ReplyDeleteThanks Chuckles, she is a big softy, love her to bits!
DeleteNice haul, Heather! And I have only read the first Lunar Chronicles book, so I can't help you with your existential questions about the series.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week ahead and happy reading.
Lexxie @ (un)Conventional Bookviews
Ha sorry for the questions, I was getting deep and meaningful!!!!
DeleteIt's great you're enjoying Cinder! Especially because I have it on my TBR list for one of my challenges! Also Fern is really cute! Hope you have a great week and happy reading!
ReplyDeleteLaura @ http://a-reader-lives-a-thousand-lives.blogspot.co.uk
It was on my TBR pile for ages before I got round to it! Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteGlad you're liking Cinder. I've only read the first two books and I really liked both of them. I should get back to them . . . .
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great week.
I cant wait to get back to Scarlet but I need to get the Red Rising trilogy out the way first!
DeleteI am glad to hear you're enjoying Cinder, it's on my to-read list. Eventually I want to read it, but I haven't been in a hurry to buy a copy yet. Everyone seems to love the series, and while I normally am not a fan of fairytale retellings I convinced myself I need to try at least this series. I hope you'll have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lola and I hope you get round to Cinder too!
DeleteLove your Funko's- just ordered my first one-Harry Potter of course!! Have another great week!!
ReplyDeletehttp://thebestbasicblogger.blogspot.com/2016/01/january-wrap-up-post.html
I have just ordered Dumbledore and Snape to join him!
DeleteOMG YAY! I'm so happy you're enjoying Cinder! I love that series so much and can't wait to see what you think of the other books.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy all your books this week! Also, loving that Leslie quote!
Happy reading! :)
Cinder was epic!! Looking forward to getting in to the rest soon!!
DeleteCinder is a great book! I still need to finish the series, I am glad you are enjoying it.
ReplyDeleteGlad everything is good sorry the weather is shit Lol
Have a great week, Heather! Happy Reading! ox
Thanks Michelle!!
DeleteI love the Lunar Chronicles! So glad you're enjoying Cinder. Don't worry! It keeps getting better.
ReplyDeleteArgh if it gets better it is going to be amazing, Cinder was epic!!
DeleteOMG I LOVE the Clueless Funko Pop!! That is one of my all time favorite movies! I hope you love the rest of the Lunar Chronicles! I promise they don't suck! :P
ReplyDeleteHere's my Weekly Recap!
Clueless is the best! I can't wait to read the rest of the Lunar Chronicles!
DeleteYay, I'm so happy you are enjoying Cinder. I hope you like the other ones! A lot of people LOVE Cress (and that's the third one) so definitely a series you should read all the way through to see what you think. I still have to read Fairest (the mini book about Levana) and Winter, but I own both, so those are coming up soon! :)
ReplyDeleteI love those Funko Pops. I need to start collecting them. I want sooo many especially the Harry Potter ones and pretty much anything Disney. haha
Oh, and I just read The Dead House so I hope you enjoy it. I really liked it. Such a unique way of telling a story.

I love Funko pops, Harry is going to be joined this weekend by Snape and Dumbledore! My husband thinks I have lost my mind.
DeleteGlad you're loving Cinder. HA - Bender! I still need to read Winter. Sucks about the shitty weather, but at least everything else is fine. ;)
ReplyDeleteOk maybe Iko should not be compared to Bender but he is my fave robot!!!
DeleteI read ‘Cinder’ only a view weeks ago and also really really loved it. I’m going to read the next book as soon as I cleared out my reading pile a little.
ReplyDeleteI also just received the new book by J.D. Robb. I can’t wait to start reading.. I love this series.
Have a great week! ;)
JD Robb is one of my favourite authors, I don't think she has written a bad book yet in the In Death series!
DeleteI haven't read Cinder, but I'm glad you're loving it! Finding a fantastic book is always the best. And your dog is adorable. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks, my dog is crazy and cuddly, the best kind of dog!
DeleteCongrats on reading Cinder, I am still dying to read this series. However, I just ordered Game of Thrones (YAY) and my first Funko-Harry Potter of course, is it nuts to want them all? The Book of Speculation looks good to me, am going to check that one out for sure,ohhhh and you're reading Glass Sword another one of my can't wait to read books!! Have a great week!!
ReplyDeletehttp://thebestbasicblogger.blogspot.com/2016/02/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-8.html
Funkos are very addictive, I have five with number 6 and 7 on their way!!
DeleteGlass Sword is very good, reading that just now!
I loved Cinder too, glad you're enjoying it and it sure makes up for the shitty weather, although I have yet to read the next books that came out. Your dog is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks, she is princess!!! Well she thinks she is!
DeleteSorry I didn't comment on this last week. I am ashamed. I loovveee Fern she looks traumatized like my cat does when I try to take her pic with a book. The Book of Speculation looks interesting; I love the cover. I hope you had a fab week, Heather!
ReplyDeleteSo you should be!!!! Fern is great posing and as soon as I press the camera to take the photo she looks all grumpy!
DeleteCinder is one of my all time favourite novels and the series is just so much amazingness in a few books! I hope you keep reading and end up fangirling just as much as I do! Looking forward to seeing you read Scarlet soon afterwards~
ReplyDeleteI have read the first couple of chapters of Scarlet but I want to finish Golden Son but as soon as I finish that series I am back on the Lunar Chronicles!
