Me too! I think I told you last year (after I'd read Dream of Thieves) that you NEED to read this series David!! I really think you will LOVE it, especially after the second book.




I haven't read them but my sister, who is not on the site but is an avid and open reader, loved book 1, thought book 2 was okay and couldn't finish book 3. So her opinion seems to go with the ratings, and she doesn't have the ratings to go by.


OK cool, good to know , thank you! I think I may just stay in the happy place I'm in after reading the first book :)

Ahh, Sadie and carter, love them.
I heard some people say they liked it less than pjo, but I loove it.

YAY! I ADORED The Kane Chronicles :) I think its actually my fave Rick Riordan series so far.
*EDIT*--but there are still plenty I haven't read yet!

Nice!! Yeah I saw that all his books were like $1.99 today, that's awesome. :D I never got around to reading the third Kane Chronicles book, but at this point I've totally forgotten what happened in books 1 and 2. I should probably re-read/finish that series at some point!

I enjoyed the first book of The City of Ember, but never wanted to continue with the series. I've read the reviews as well and they weren't too encouraging.

I liked Percy Jackson better than the Kane Chronicles, though I did enjoy both. I heard that the audio for the Kane Chronicles is really good. They add a lot of the sibling relationship into their tones. I may have to try it.
Currently working on The Hollow Boy. I'm enjoying it but I still think the first one was better. Maybe I'll change my mind by the end.



I liked Conspiracy of Blood & Smoke, but I LOVED Prisoner of Night & Fog. The author was kind enough to send me signed bookmarks too! I'm currently reading her newest one, Traitor Angels.


That's so cool Ashley! Yeah, so far I am liking the first one better, too, although I'm enjoying this one! I think it was learning more about Hitler and this strange relationship he had with the girl and her family that intrigued me so much in the first book. Now, its more running from the evil Nazis in this one. Hoping it gets a bit better!

I agree with Jenny––I liked it, but it wasn't quite worth the hype for me. I also borrowed it from the library. :)
thanks for the input guys. I'll probably just see if my library has it. I'm so tempted to get it cause the covers are so beautiful!!!

I had totally forgotten what had happened too, but it hasn't affected my reading experience too much, there's plenty of recapping :) Overall, it's as fun as the previous two!





Wow Dixie! Congrats! I just had my 25th reunion last year. It is a lot of work I am sure! Hope you have a blast :)

Cool, how was the reunion? I've never been to one because I'm never near Pittsburgh when they have them :)
It was ok David. I had more fun at the informal get together the night before though. I am not much for formal gatherings or crowds :)

I think my next physical book will be


I finished The Hollow Boy. It was a slow start but I thought that the last third was great. Probably 4 stars for me. Now that school is just about out, I'm hoping to get more reading in.

Oh my gosh, I feel the exact same way!

SAME. Not looking forward to my 10yr reunion next year :P

OMG I am cheering on the Pens like crazy. I grew up playing hockey (it's my favorite sport) and my family has had season tickets for a while. It was hard to lose my seat when I left PIttsburgh LOL! But yes, I am loving the turnaround they made in the second half of the season, and will be overjoyed if they manage to win the last game and hoist the cup! The last time they won was a month before I left Pittsburgh for Sydney, the same year the Steelers won the Super Bowl.


Also finished

Next I'm reading




Oh geez, I could never not watch! But I am equally anxious, literally biting my nails off and feeling my heart pound in my chest when the game is close LOL I haven't been in the new arena, as it opened after I'd left Pittsburgh :( But I spent A LOT of time in Mellon Arena!




Any thoughts from those who read it?"
I LOVED this book!! Just an amazing read :)
