No problem hon. I know you weren't being insensitive. I'm doing ok! Ty hon!

I'll try to finish this up later today!

[Kathy]

Ok so I'm done with part 1 and got into part 2

I cannot believe (view spoiler)[ that "the voice" is not Jeb!!! I mean I thought that it sounded like him sometimes and sometimes not, but I just thought that we had that settled is all! Now come to find out that it's more than one person? GRRRR! So frustrating! (hide spoiler)]

I hope that (view spoiler)[ her mom is not bad! That would just not be okay!!! Like at all! I'll seriously peeved! Not only does Max need to depend on someone...even though she acts like she don't!...but so do the others! She just better not be bad! (hide spoiler)]

Fang and Max (view spoiler)[ I think she is really really scared of her feelings for him! I have a feeling it's going to drag on though because how many more books are there? Logic suggests...at least my logic anyways lol!!...that it won't be solved anytime soon! :( (hide spoiler)]

The Uber-Director (view spoiler)[ He is a brain and a spinal cord? It says he smiles and blinks! How can a brain and spinal cord smile and blink?!?! lol! I wonder what happened to the other director? I wonder if she's been eleminated because the new director said something about a new world with no humans! What's that all about? (hide spoiler)]

Their abilities (view spoiler)[ I glad they're evolving! I don't how Nudge, Iggy and Angel's will help them, but Fang's is cool! I wonder what Gazzy will get! (hide spoiler)]

[Becky]

Hey I finished this a little bit ago. I gave it 3 stars. It was just ok to me. Gave us some more info and now we can move onto book 5, lol!

[Vicki]

I rated it 3 stars as well. Hoping book 5 is better!

[Kathy]

Ok! I'm in the middle of part 3 and I'm kind of confused!

The Uber-Director wants to (view spoiler)[ auction them off, but sent Gozen to capture them and he's talking about killing them and now he's talking about the auction again! So which is it??? Death or auction?? (hide spoiler)]

Also (view spoiler)[ I kind of don't blame Max for pushing Fang away! He just tries to kiss her and doesn't tell her how he feels! I know he's a guy and guys don't talk about their feelings, especially this guy! But he's got to tell her something! I mean come on! Talk to her already! (hide spoiler)]

[Vicki]

About the Uber-Director and (view spoiler)[Gozen, I know what you mean. I got confused a little, too, but I didn't want to reread that part. LOL I think it'll come together though. He did want to auction them off for money, but I think was willing to kill them? (hide spoiler)]

About Fang...I CONCUR!!!

[Kathy]

Yes! I think so too! And Thank you!!! I mean really Fang?!?!

I didn't like this one very much either. It kind of felt a little strange for me, like it wasn't even the same series! (view spoiler)[I mean was it just some lame attempt to try to bring awareness to kids about going green? I mean I'm all for that! What better way to bring it to kids attention than to work it into a story or a series, but I just didn't like the delivery! It just seemed like a shameless plug to try to get kids to lessen their carbon footprint! (hide spoiler)]

And the end with Gozen and the UD (view spoiler)[ I thought it was maybe a little rushed? I mean, I thought there would have a been a big fight scene with Max and the Incrediable Humorless Hulk!! It was very anit-climatic for me! (hide spoiler)]

I agree with both your spoilers, which is why I rated it a 3. I also felt that the plot line was (view spoiler)[rushed. At first I thought it was too boring, nothing happening. Then I was like, wait! Where did the UD come in? I guess I had read right over it, but I didn't care enough to go back and re-read for clarification. (hide spoiler)] BUT I still love the series and will continue!

[Kathy]

Yes! I agree with you! I mean what happened to the other director!?! There was nothing said about her! I just chalked it up to they were always getting rid of people that that didn't like their performance wise!

I will continue too! Total is my favorite character now! Next to Max and Fang of course! And the rest of the flock! I just can't leave anybody out! lol! :D

[Vicki]

Yeah, Total is a crack up for sure! Lol

[Becky]

Wow, I missed a lot while I was at basketball... catching up now!

[Becky]

I agree with you guys... didn't really feel like part of the series, but I think that's because he only planned a trilogy and decided to take it way further and didn't have anything to fill in here...

I feel the same way about the 4th book in the mortal instruments.. cuz it's sure boring the heck out of me too!

[Kathy]

I know! That's why I haven't picked up ! I have checked it out a few times and just never got to it! lol! :D

The cover of that one at least looks promising. LOL. I want the 2 of them together so badly and then that damn Seelie Queen keeps getting in the way...

BTW, we're all done with this right? Should I move it to ARchived?

I believe we are done with it and we should just forget it and hope for book 5 to pick up the pace and plot! LOL

[Kathy]

Yes! I wished that Queen B would just mind her own business!

I think we're done! On to #5!! :D

[Vicki]

Lol Kathy!
