Then great! Though I'm loving the second book more than the first. And that is because of the characters. Haha!

haha I have no idea where the story is headed to. So far, just like you, it's okay. Still can't see what these people are raving about this book.

I'm actually getting the hang of the plot's timeline, it isn't confusing at all!
Then again, confounding books are my thing, a therapy to my already addled brain.
Hwoosah!!! *does the flying kick*

Feeling ko nga wala talaga siyang story. Parang connected lives kuno lang ng mga hippies turned yuppies. Pag to pangit, sayang yung pinambili ko. Haha
Tricia: Hindi kasi linear ang plot. Parang short story anthology nga eh. Ako regular price ko nabili. Medyo hinayang ako ng konti, pero I did not hate it naman. As I mentioned, I like some parts (yung chapters nina Lou at Robert ang favorites ko).
May mass market na Goon Squad na. Nakita ko sa sa Fully Booked - Greenbelt. FYI lang, para sa mga nagtitipid. :D

Done with Divergent, maganda siya guys, not sure lang kung better than Hunger Games pero maganda din yung world building. Currently reading
Currently reading: The Burning Wire by Jeffrey DeaverTo all Fans of Crime Scene Forensics, I love Jeffrey Deaver. He's the father of crime scene investigation books / genre. He started talking about blood spatter patterns and preserving the evidence way before CSI started! :-)
