[Veronica]

I love the Divergent series. I cant wait for the last book to be released.

I like it very much.

Awesome. I look forward to reading it.

[Kit★]

, , , , , plus another hardback copy of even though I already have one, and a few books for my kid and my friend's daughter. Those at a library sale a week or two ago.
Then I found , , and , plus more books for the kids at Goodwill. :)
Will have to be the end of my book buying for a few months though I think...

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

Hey Kit would you be interested at some point to read The Wicked Years series with me? I just got the first book last week and have been dying to fall into this series maybe later this year. I have a feeling I will be getting the rest of them through a third party through Amazon. I might be able to find them through our local UBS.

[Kit★]

Sure! I just need to get a copy of Wicked. I had one, but it was on a shelf under a window a/c unit, which decided to blow a massive water leak somehow. Ruined it and about 12 other books that were on that shelf, I was so mad! But I've been searching :)

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

Awesome! This makes me very happy Kit! I am sorry to hear though about your ruined books. I can imagine how you felt! It's no rush, just let me know when you get a hold of a copy of the first one.

[Dustin]

I really hope you two like the Wicked books! Maguire's a little wordy for my tastes, but beyond that, I really enjoyed the first two books. The third, not so much. I'm not interested in the forth and final installment..

[Dustin]

Excellent book haul, Janie!! I adore The Kite Runner and One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest is one of my favorite books of all time!!

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

Thanks Dustin! :) I have been wanting to get ahold of the wicked years books and found the first one for $3 on the sales rack at our local UBS. I really got some great books for a great price. I was really happy. I will go back and see if I can find the rest of the Wicked Years books maybe next week.

I've had varied luck with him. I liked Wicked when I read it years ago, and liked What-the-Dickens: The Story of a Rogue Tooth Fairy too, but found Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister rather boring and slow.

[Kathryn]

We just got home from the bookstore, and I bought a pretty leather-bound book of Edgar Allen Poe, and a paperback of The Kite Runner. Both were a dollar. :)

[Kathryn]

Tess of the d'Urbervilles
Walking Disaster

Wow Kathryn awesome! I too just got The Kite Runner last week. Mine was $2 though. I look forward to reading it.

I've only read the three Wicked books. I like the 2nd one best.

I read A Thin Dark Line years ago and remember liking it- I think it was my first hoag book.
hope you enjoy all of your selections :)

[Holly]

Thanks Rachel. I've read a book by her and liked it. Looking forward to reading it.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

Nice Haul Holly!

Rachel I have like 10 Hoag books that I have not even read yet. I keep saying read one before I buy more to see if I like her style. Did I do that? No, I just bought. LOL

[Holly]

Thanks Janie!

I think she's good. Can't wait to read the other two books by her that I got.

[Rachel]

lol Janie! Hoag is a pretty good writer in my opinion-i read her from time to time. I think you will like her.

[Holly]

I think you will too Janie.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

I am pretty sure you are both right!

[Holly]

:-)

This is also the only book by Hoag, and I enjoyed it, as well. Great haul, Holly!!

[Holly]

Thanks Dustin. Can't wait to read them all!

[Holly]

Oh, and I also bought Two Graves by Preston & Child. Can't forget about that one! Lol

[Dustin]

And I know of your love for Preston & Child! You're awesome, buddy!!

[Holly]

Yes, LOVE them, lol! Aww, thanks.

It's the final installment in a trilogy. Can't wait to get to it after Mr. Holmes!!!!!

[Dustin]

You're very welcome!


So there's a trilogy, along with all the other books in the series, or is it entirely different?

[Holly]

It's in the Pendergast series. There's actually a couple within the series. Along with this series, there's another, then the first two books in the series should be read together as well.

[Dustin]

Oh, okay. That's kind of confusing, if you didn't know any better..

[Holly]

I see what you mean. When you look at the list of their novels inside one of the books, it tells you which ones should be read together. Then it's not so confusing; just kind of hard to explain.

[Dustin]

Yeah, I figured there'd be something like that within each book.

[Holly]

Yep. Makes it a lot easier. Can't wait to get to the two books by them that I have that I still haven't read. Very excited!! :-D

[Brittany]

The Hallowed Ones by Laura Bickle.

I read The Cabinet of Curiosities last year and really liked agent pendergast- I keep meaning to pick up Still Life With Crows but keep getting distracted by other books lol.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

Ok wanna explain all of this over Holly....lol j/k I have a few Preston & Child books myself.
