Are you happy that we are going to be reading The Kiss of Deception?! Do you already have a copy?! I'm really excited! I've heard amazing things about this one!!

I'm excited about her powers! I kept thinking of Zu (from the Darkest Minds trilogy) hehe
I agreed with all of you ^^ that was comparing this to the Selection. I'm not really happy about that, but hopefully as the book continues they will differ more!
I also thought of Throne of Glass when they were talking about the glass palace and seeing through it and everything.. I guess it's a little different though. This one has diamonds and stuff. Excited to read on!

So my thoughts - I definitely think it's really interesting do far. The first 5 chapters flew by for me, and I'm so happy I picked this up because this is totally the type of book I'm in the mood for! I'm really liking the set up so far and I'm so interested to learn more about the Silvers! Definitely interested to learn more about Cal and who he really is.. Also to find out more about Mare and her powers! Who else was freaking out when the silvers started turning in the reds?! They are definitely cold hearted people.. Poor poor Gisa.. Now Mare is going to have to figure out how to provide for her family! Super interested to learn more about her brothers involvement with the Scarlet Guard! Also about the war.. Its so sad that Mare's friend is going to have to leave... These people have terrible luck. I feel like a lot has already happened in these first few chapters! I haven't had as much trouble with the world building as some of you said, but I can understand where you all are coming from.. It's a little weird to hear about the Reds walking everywhere, living in the heat (so I assumed no AC), working so hard, and sometimes being in the dark, then to mention TVs and jets.. I was reading that and I was like, Oh! Okay, so they do have stuff like that... Just the reds don't have that stuff. I kept picturing the silvers as the Lunars (from The Lunar Chronicles) they are all so beautiful, yet cold and cruel, and almost not even human with magical abilities. No one else probably thought that.. I'm just weird. Haha excited to continue on!

Not only is it fun to discuss this book in the discussion boards (that is going to be the most organized way) but what do you all think about having a Twitter hashtag for the group?
Something we could all use to update our progress! We could just keep the spoilers to the discussion boards, but make just kind of general updates on Twitter? Maybe? What's everyone's thoughts?
IF we think this is a fun idea and people want to do it, what should the hashtag be?
#Readalongwithpriceiswong is WAY too long. On Twitter, that's practically half off the update! Let me know your ideas below!

I was a little confused for a bit when Daito died, because just like Wade I thought just his Avatar died. I just kept waiting for him to coming back, just level one... I can't believe that killed him. I mean, I CAN. You know, they tried to kill Wade and stuff... but wow. I hate the sixers and can't wait for Wade and his friends to BRING THEM DOWN. I know that Halliday wouldn't have wanted them to win either.... About to start Level 3!! Hoping to finish this tonight!

I understand where she was coming from about the whole relationship thing.. I mean they've never even met in person. The hunt is also their main priority and its true they were getting in each other's way. I just don't see why they didn't work together then split the money. They both could still can more than enough for what they were planning to use it for.. Excited to continue and to see Wade hopefully get the next key!
