Unwind

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Has anyone read this book? What took me so long to read it? It was incredible! The second book was even better!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Omg that scene was so well done and chilling, I was completely breathless at the end of it. Wait until the sequel Kayla, it's even better and there's another crazy scene!!!

I just received the first book in the mail from a giveaway I won, which I was really excited about seeing as the publisher sent me an ARC of UnWholly but I couldn't read it since I hadn't read the 1st one. :)

[Rebecka]

I loved it!! I still haven't gotten around to UnWholly but I really need to. My library doesn't have it yet and I have a limited book buying budget :(

Ooh I hope you get to read UnWholly soon, it's even better!

[Karen’s Library]

I agree! UnWholly is better than Unwind. Not sure how that's possible as Unwind was so good!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

I know right? I was blown away by Unwind and then UnWholly took it to another level. No sequel slump there!! Killing me waiting for the next book!

[Rebecka]

I'm just gonna have to go get it and try to explain to my non-reader husband why it is so important ;)

[Andrea]

Just started reading Unwind. Excited(:

Aww maybe you can try again someday, sometimes you're just not in the right frame of mind for a certain book. Happens to me all the time and then I try again later and I love the book :) Or maybe it's just not for you, that's possible too!

LOL, good luck!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

I know exactly what you mean :) I hope you like it better the second time around!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

You've got to read it Kayla, it's AMAZING! Although you could wait until the third one comes out, it's killing me having to wait :)

[Reem]

I'm going to get it soon. So excited! When's the third one coming out?

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Aww yay!! Hmm not sure, hopefully this year and not too late in the year!

[Heidi]

I really liked this one. Need to get to UnWholly.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

UnWholly was even better for me, hope you like it as much! You've got time since the third book isn't even out yet :)

[Karli]

I just started reading this one. 20 pages in and already disturbing. That makes me nervous...

I've been meaning to read that book, but i always forget, my friend told me it was really good, but gruesome.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Ooh it's so good!!! A little disturbing yes, but soo good!

[chucklesthescot]

I was a bit 'hmmm' about this one. I liked the idea which was clever and different, and I could think of candidates in my street that needed to be unwound/unwinded(!). But it did drag a bit in places for me so I'd rate it ok/good but wanted a bit more out of it.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

The author, Neal Shusterman, will be coming to the group for a Q&A!!! The always awesome Karen convinced him, well done, Karen!!! We're just confirming dates (probably December or January) and then I'll set up a thread :)

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Getting ready for the Q&A, I finished reading and I loved it! I am going to try to read the whole series before the Q&A, but I feel I've accomplished something atleast reading the first book!

This concept was chilling--I explained it to Darryl, and he thought it sounded pretty gruesome, but absolutely believable. And I agree! Those news stories and quotes throughout really added that emphasis, that is a believable future. The unwound scene....OMG, I'm pretty squeamish, and that had me jumping out of my skin! I just can't imagine it!

I was conscious for a C-section (Tessa's birth) and that was hard enough! I can't imagine laying there and knowing they are taking me all apart...FREAKY!!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

I get chills just hearing you talk about it!!! But so glad you enjoyed it, I'm obsessed with this series!

[Karen’s Library]

The Unwind sequence was probably one of the most chilling things I have ever read! Mind blowing!

Neal Shusterman will be joining us in January/February for his Q&A in our group. Woot WOOT! He's on a whirlwind crazy book tour right now! I'm so excited that we're one of his priorities when he's done!!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

You're amazing Karen!!! Thanks for utilizing your awesome author sweet-talking skills to persuade Neal to come to our group!!!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Agreed, Karen YOU ROCK!! So excited for this one now! And that will give me time to finish the series, lol!

[Taja]

I was super hesitant going into this one, but once I decided to read it, I couldn't stop! I love the writing style Neal Shusterman has and I loved the wittiness of it.
I ended up loving it so much, I bought a paperback even though I already had the ebook.

Which character did you guys like the most? :)

Amazing!

[Karen’s Library]

I've read all of the books in this series and so far still like Connor. :)

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I really liked Conner as well, although I've only read the first book.

[Meaghan]

I agree, Connor is still my favorite! I consider him the MC but I'm not sure that's really true.

Ooh I love a lot of them, but Connor still wins for me! Hey Taja, did you know Neal Shusterman is coming to our group early next year for a Q&A? Woohoo!!

[Taja]

I do know, and I cannot wait!!!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Hehe yayyyyy!!

[Coty]

I just finished … This series has become one of my favorites. Character wise… I agree Conner is my favorite as well. Besides him i really like Hayden and Grace.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Ahhh!!! It's one of my top 5 dystopian series too, Coty! So glad you've loved it as much as so many of us :) We can all buddy read the final book together when it comes out ;)

[Karen’s Library]

Me, me, me...!! *jumps up and down waving arms wildly* I'm in!!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

LOL!!! I was already counting you for sure, my book twin :)

[Coty]

@ Karen - LOL!!!

@David - That sounds like a pretty sweet idea. I'm all in!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I'm sure I'll be caught up by then, so I'll join in too :) And yay, Coty, we'd be thrilled to have you join us!!
