Triple Jump

[Melanie]

For a 'Triple Jump' read - you need to read a trilogy :) nice and easy - three steps = three books, no more and no less...

Tell us your trilogy and what you thought of it here!

I read and it got 5/5 (except MJ)

I think you've mentioned not liking MJ as much before - want to tell us why....? I'm intrigued now :)

Will give this a go... not sure which trilogy to go with but it may be this one (if I reread the first book):

[Melanie]

Is shiver good - I really like the covers for these, but haven't gotten round to them.

I'm thinking I'll be doing

They've been on my book shelf for a while and I need something to push me to read another trilogy - last one was The Hunger Games and so these'll have to be good to compare

[Emily V, Head Mod]

I think I will try

and

[Hayley]

I am very pleased with your choices, Melanie *grins like a maniac* I'm pretty sure the Chaos Walking series will be good to you.

Meanwhile, I'll be trying out:

and also maybe

I really liked Darkest Powers trilogy - I've not read any others of hers though

I'm more inspired now you've said that :) I've struggled to pick them up yet this year

[Hayley]

To Melanie: The stuff is hard to get into, with the amount of slang and stuff it uses and it is very dark... possibly even more than the Hunger Games one because it's somewhat more... barbaric, I guess?

[Karina]

My two fav trilogy's and I've read them hundreds of times :)

[Melanie]

OK - I'm doing the Chaos trilogy for the dystopian marathon now (if I ever get back to it)

So my triple jump is:



Just have 'Death' to go which I'm starting this week and my event is done - yay! :)

[Kirsten]

Ok ended up going with the Wonderous Strange trilogy:

finished Aug 29
finished Sep 19
finished Oct 12

[Ice Queen Wanderer •The Cursed Prophetess•]

Okay.

1. 5/5

2. 3.5/5

3. 5/5

Well done you! :) I read HG trilogy for mine too

[Michael]

I started The Hunger Games, almost at the end of it now.

How'd you like it?

[Michael]

Once they got into the arena I quite enjoyed it, but I don't really find the rest of the world very convincing.

I quite like the idea of dystopia worlds, but have only read 1984 and Fahrenheit 451 before HG. 1984 I found very believable, but 451 not so much.

There seems to be something missing in both 451 and HG, but I'll carry on with the trilogy anyway.
