David Estes (davidestesbooks) | 373 comments I know I haven't been around much (sorry, so busy!) but I seem to remember that some people in this group were fans of I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga. Scott, you are right? Anyway, I just wanted to let anyone interested know that I've managed to convince Barry Lyga to come on over to my YA group to answer some questions while we buddy read I Hunt Killers, so if anyone wants to pop by feel free! It starts on September 13th! http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

Then on September 20th, we'll start a buddy read of the sequel and Barry Lyga will be back to answer some more questions! Eep, so excited!!! http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...

message 2235: by Shenali (new)

Shenali (sheni_star) | 63 comments i liked it if im being generally objective, but in comparison with the book, they left out quite a bit of things, changed things and yeah the usual problems we have with a book based movie..
