    girl SAME. I loved Evangeline, and I would 100% be similar to her if I found myself in her position, like all of her choices made so much sense to me through the whole thing... and she remained very true to her character through the whole series. I just liked that she was different from other main characters that are in pretty much every other fantasy book.

      @@fifs7400 DH2 felt like a character study of Julian. You see his reasonings and just more inner thoughts to him that we didn’t get to see in prior books (especially after the events in the long way home). I think he may grow on you if you weren’t convinced in Daisy Haites/Magnolia Parks.

    This was my first year making a goal so I chose 50. I'm currently almost finished with book number 71 though so I'm thinking I may can read 75 by the end of the year. I think this upcoming year I am going to set my goal at 70 and see how I do. I am taking an English class in college next spring called Known Authors so I'm sure that will add a few books toward my goal next year. Its kind of nice because its hard to fit reading in while being in school, but if its for an assignment then it justifies spending my time reading. There are so many books on my TBR I could probably have enough to read one book a week for 2 years. I will stop everything for Iron Flame and the new Maple Hills book featuring Henry. I cannot remember the name of that one, but I loved Icebreaker and Wild Fire.
