Lament - Maggie Stiefvater
Maggie is one of my favourite authors, because of the The Wolves of Mercy Falls, so I actually don't understand nor have any excuses for not reading this book yet! Well I guess I kind of do. For one I don't really know whether I like faerie books or not as some books I am loving and others not. I am a bit scared to read this and not like it and then be unsure as to whether she is still one of my favourite authors. The other excuse (same as always!) is the lack of time. Which I am lacking more and more!
Anyway, I do hope to get to this one soon.
This was actually the first Maggie Stiefvater AND the first faerie book I ever read and I loved it! It really got me into the world of paranormal books, because before I didn't like them too much. But after reading it, my obsession with YA books really started. :)
ReplyDeleteBut I still need to read the companion novel, Ballad - it's sitting on my shelf, looking pretty. :D

I recently read Lament after putting it off for AGES. I didn't want to read it because I know I'm not a fan of fairies, but I really loved this one anyway.
ReplyDeleteI read lament a little while ago. I have to say I preffered the Wolves of Mercy Falls series. It's still a good book though. I've got the get the 2nd one in the series. Like you I'm not a massive "fairy" story fan. I hope you get round to it soon.

I have not read Lament, but I can certainly understand your reluctance. Sometimes I love fairy stuff. And sometimes I really don't. I hope that you find the right time to settle down and check it out, though. :)
ReplyDeleteI still need to read Lament too! I'm not a big fan of faeries either, I didn't like Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr so I'm a little apprehensive, but since I love the Wolves of Mercy Falls I thought I'd buy it but I still haven't gotten round to reading it!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read Lament, but I really want to! (I haven't read Forever yet, but yeah) It sounds really interesting! Hope you can read it soon! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI think I'm probably the only person in the YA book blogosphere who hasn't read any thing by Maggie S :-/ Her books all sounds fantastic, but like you, I've avoided them because I'm not 100% I like the paranormal creatures in each one
ReplyDeleteI have this book too and I've not managed to get to it either. One day we will :)
ReplyDeleteWell, you're ahead of me - I've never read any Maggie Stiefvater books! Hope the book is worth the wait. :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's strange because I LOVE Maggie's writing I'm really surprised I haven't gotten round to this one yet either!
ReplyDeleteThis one was my first book about faeries! It's very well written!! :) Still haven't read Ballad, but I must, really... :/
ReplyDeleteHope you get round to it soon!
Hope you enjoy it when you get to it!
