Connie - I really like the author, Annie Raines. The 2nd book in the series was actually better; I also like her other series. I think she is coming out with another series this summer. I joined her Facebook page.

I'm not enjoying the book I chose for #33 - Dragons. I'm pretty sure I won't get through it before it's due back, so to be safe lets switch to Dragonsong by Anne McCaffrey, which I know I like. Though it's been years since I read it. - so fun!
Thanks.

Teri-have you read the other books in the series? The dragon wilds are the only ones I have not read but they come near the end of the overall series. I have liked most of the series but there was one trilogy that was just so so for me.

I thought Dragon Keeper was the first in the series. I've read Fool's Errand and enjoyed it but not enough to motivate me to read more. Though I'm trying to read outside my comfort zone more this year, so I thought I'd try a different kind of Hobb.

I don't hate Dragon Keeper, but I have to make myself pick it up and read a little. It jumps around a lot, for one thing, and I'm not fond of that. I tend to get lost in the book world, and authors who keep pulling me out of one world to plunk me down someplace else disrupt that. Plus I feel like there's too much being held back - who is Erik and what are the birds about? Why are so many rain people born deformed? Like I said, it's not working for me.

[Jillian]

I don’t like the way they number the books so while it is the first book of the rain wilds, it is book 10 in the whole series. Reading the Liveship Traders trilogy would make it easier to understand the Rain Wild people. I have only been able to get my husband to listen to the very first book, it just was not for him.

That makes sense, since they clearly expected you to know what a liveship is. lol Among other things...

I read lots of series out of order, sometimes it hardly matters, but other times it really makes a difference.

[Jan, Moderator]

I'll make the change for you Teri!

[Karen]

Oh, I loved Caddie Woodlawn! I don't know how many times I read it growing up. I should check it out and read it again. Maybe my 9 year old niece would like it, too. :)

[Jan, Moderator]

Thanks for the update Sarah!

I've never read Caddie Woodlawn. I should give it a try :)

I finished #3 Dragon, with Dragonsong by Anne McCaffrey. It's been many years since I read that and it was fun to revisit it.
