I read it and enjoyed it. I can see where you are coming from because during the entire first book the reader thought he was a different person and now we know who he is so the second books portrayals him differently.

Yep, agreed! I did like him slightly better when I didn't know who was...but still enjoyed the second book a lot :)

Yay! I own the print copy but that price is tempting.

It was really good, but I felt like it was cut off too soon ... I wish it had been a bit longer. Ah well.
Now I've started:
Which is really good so far!

I bought Winger when it was on sale but I have not started it yet.

I just finished 'The Rise of Nine' by Pittacus Lore. This whole series is meh but I've started it so I just want to finish it and the books are growing better as the series progresses but I wouldn't say I love it.
Next I'm reading Anna Dressed in Blood which I've heard really good things about!

I know, right? It felt so short especially after waiting 2 year for the book! Ahhhh

@Heidi - I think you will like Winger! I'm really enjoying it. :)
@David - Seriously! It was such a long wait and then it was so short. It was just getting to the good stuff and then it just kind of ended randomly. *Sigh* Too bad. I did like it, but I wish it had been like 100 pages longer. :P
@Seth - Huh, well so far I wasn't expecting a twist but now I will be looking out for one, haha. XD

Loved Wool! Can't wait for the author Q&A in a week or so! https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Went to Catching Fire at the theater today and I actually thought it was better than the book. I also liked it more than the first movie. IMO Jennifer L. and Josh H. were both perfectly cast. Next up I hope to watch the Book Thief movie.

They were SO GOOD! I'm very impressed with the movies :)
Ahh can't wait for The Book Thief!

I liked it better than the first movie, too, but not as much as the book. I really LOVED that book! But I thought it was a really well done adaptation, one of the best book-to-movies ever!!
Finished:
I really liked it! The ending was definitely ... not what I expected, and I kind of wish it had been a little longer. But ah well, it was still really good.
I also started:
Finally ... I'm so behind on all the things I need to read, haha. I wasn't a big fan of the second book; this one is okay so far.

Great series!!

Great series!!
Yay, I love the Monstrumologist! As for the Divergent series ... yeah, I liked the first book at the time I read it, but the second book was kind of annoying in a lot of ways, so I think I would feel differently about the first book if I read it again now. So, I'd say if you didn't like the first book it's not really worth continuing. I think they're all right, enough that I'm just curious to see what happens. But, they're not amazing.
