  1. do u know what's funny! from your list I have only read Dreamfever! hahaha. Gonna read Double Cross september. After reading Divergent I have to read the HUnger Games now. And I haven't read the Gail Carriger books yet but seriously need to.

    Hard Bitten could be included, heard someone through their kindle across the room and almost broke it LOL

    good thing mine was in book form.

  2. @Maryia

    I heard the same about Hard Bitten and I actually know what happens, but I didnt add it because I havent read it yet =D

  3. Avery says:

    I haven't read "White Cat" yet, so I can't wait to see what it is all about! But I personally thought that Aprilynne Pike's "Illusions" and Sophie Jordan's "Firelight" had some pretty horrid cliffhangers.

    Have a great weekend Larissa!

  4. This one was actually harder than I thought it would be!! Had to take some serious time to think back to all those screaming rants I might of had! ;)

  5. Deea says:

    I've heard about Hard Bitten, *sniff*, I'll try to stay away from it until Drink Deep comes out.*sigh*

    Anyway, another awesome theme! I haven't read The Fever series and Changeless yet, but I totally agree with your other choices. Thankfully, when I read White Cat and Catching Fire, the sequels were already out so reading them right away made the cliffhanger a little more bearable.

    But Double Cross!OMG!*dies* I've been completely 'disillusioned' by that ending!*pulls hair out* If I didn't like Otto before, now I hate him!

    I'd add to your list City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments 1), Shadow Kiss (Vampire Academy 3) and the book of the Hollows by Kim Harrison in which Kisten died - I don't remember which one it was, book #4 or #5 or...?*sigh*

  6. Riv Re says:

    I could NOT agree more about Catching Fire. I seriously freaked out when I read the last line!!!
    And White Cat? Totally a crazy ending. (Hm, I should probably get to Red Glove. It's sitting on my shelf right now...)

  7. Danielle says:

    I didn't really feel the 'Hunger Games' cliffhangers because I read the trilogy in one sitting - no waiting time. Thank-God, because I could not have handled the wait for the final book!

    But Carolyn Crane has left me still reeling... oh, Otto! I sweat, my jaw is still on the floor with that one!

    Great (frustrating) list!

  8. Becky says:

    Great topic this week. I of course agree with the Double Cross ending, I don't think I've ever come so close to actually throwing a book as I did after reading that. :)

  9. Fiktshun says:

    I loved the cliffhanger in White Cat. But I also read it only shortly before Red Glove came out, so I didn't have a long wait.

    So far this year, my #1 cliffhanger book to toss repeatedly against the wall is Demonglass. Hanging off the cliff with no survival gear. So unfair!

    Love the top 5 feature!

    And as always, happy reading!

  10. Perfect list! I also like the "throw against the wall" part. Oh yea... I feel that way in a cliffhanger! lol

  11. Blodeuedd says:

    Changeless! I pretty much died when that book ended.

  12. I actually love cliff hangers, Unless it's when someone dies or whatnot.

  13. I haven't read all of these yet but I know that they all have cliffhangers from everyone's reviews!!! I will be reading White Cat really soon!! :D
