Exactly.
Jillian, I agree with you. There are too many vampire/ fallen angel stories out there. The authors think that's what we want, but personally I read books for the intersting stroy lines and characters, not for trends. Although, there are some vamp books I like such as: Vampire Academy, House Of Night, and THIRST!!! I haven't liked any of the fallen angel stories I have read, because they are all to predictable

Why do most authors think that because one thing is popular that that is the only thing we readers will read? It's annying! Although, it's probably not purely the author's faults.....The publishers have a role in it too- because they essentially 'decide' what books the readers will read. But as that is purely based on what is happening right then and in the past.....Readers change! hahaa. There's always new ones coming in with different tastes.
I'm excited for Mockingjay and The Forgotten Locket.
But I don't know if I can wait that long......

The Forgotten Locket is the 3rd book in the HOURGLASS trilogy by Lisa MangumI'm excited for that one too, Kaylin! Thanks for listing it! :D
I know, I cannot stop thinking about the Last Sacrifice!!! Princess, do you mean Sweet Deceit by Kate Brian? Because I'm pretty sure it's already out. Unless you don't live in the U.S.?Amelia, is the Hourglass Door the first in the Hourglass trilogy? Or is it a totally unrelated book? 'Cause I've had quite a few people recommend it to me and I think I'm going to get it sometime next month :)
It's the first in a trilogy. I would definitely recommend it. You might find it a little dragging in parts (I did), but it's a wonderful, WONDERFUL book! I've got book two waiting to be read :DGo for it!
Okay I was pretty sure I was going to get it, but with all this positive feedback I will definitely put it on TBR list :)
Aha..Oh yeah it is! Was it Pure sin then?? Also Vanished by Kate Brian! Oh, and I do live in the U.S(:
MOCKINGJAY...it's finally here!

I got it yesterday! And finished it early this morning! (i decided to sleep at least a couple hours before finishing it)
So far in 2010, I have read two highly anticipated sequals.
Mockingjay and The Necromancer
I may have had way to higher expectations for them, but am strongly disappointed in both books.

Well I was disappointed.
Personally, I didnt like it much at all.
Mind you, by friends Caitlin and Alicia *loved* it. But there are just so many things that let it down...
I look forward to hearing your opinion.

I have a choice to get 1 book...mockingjay or clockwork angel????
mockingjay. because its the end of the series, youll be ending the story. if you get CA, youll just get something more to think about.
Yes, get Mockingjay because it is the end to a great series.
Even though I didnt like the book as much as expected, I am glad that I own it.

Ok..thanks...I'll probably get mockingjay
I liked Clockwork Angel more than City of Bones. I still haven't read City of Ashes and City of Glass, though.Daniel, how was The Red Pyramid? I read an excerpt and it seemed okay. Is it worth buying it?
