I want to like it, I really do. But I think my want...might end up making me hate it.

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Ahh I see. That has happened to me a few times.

Joi | 989 comments Maddison, I have a habit of reading books that are the "it" thing. Everybody seems to love them and I think that I will as well. But...it never seems to work out that way. I never seem to enjoy the books the same way. I actually, tend to dislike them tremendously.

An example would be The Hunger Games. I dislike that book with such a passion; it's unbelievable. I just want to love it ... so bad. And for some reason, when it comes to Divergent, I seem to be comparing it to THG, even though it may not be warranted.

Trinity I read 2 Chapters from The Lying Game

How did everyone else do?


message 6059: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments 2 pages of Matilda and 23 pages of The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater


message 6060: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Yeah I compared Divergent to the Hunger Games and Matched and Aberrant. They're all quite similar.


message 6061: by Trinity (new)

Trinity Great job Maddison!


message 6062: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Thanks you too!


message 6063: by Joi (new)

Joi | 989 comments 20 pages of Divergent (Divergent, #1) by Veronica Roth


message 6064: by Joi (new)

Joi | 989 comments Maddison, I freaking HATED Matched with a passion.


message 6065: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 12196 comments Wow. And yet you still read books like that! What books do you like them Joi? I'm not up for any more sprints now. I'm going to shower and then walk my dog, and then I might be up for a sprint to read the 4 chapters of my last buddy read. Sorry!

I'm gonna go now. Talk to you later.


message 6066: by Joi (new)

Joi | 989 comments It seems to be the only type of books out at this time...and they just keep coming out. So, I decide to try them out, just to say I tried.

I'm watching the movie about JFK, I'll be back when it's over.
