Teresa Glad you liked book 2 better, Daniel. Book 3 was really good too, 4 was my least favorite but 5&6 were really good.


message 9163: by Daniel (new)

Daniel (pickyreader1) | 1925 comments It was so much better, Teresa. I've heard great things about the rest of the series, except for number 4. If I can power my way through that one, I'll hopefully enjoy the series as a whole.

Ohmygosh, I love Timebound! I've both read and listened to it! I've also read and listened to the novella Time's Echo (The Chronos Files, #1.5) by Rysa Walker ! It's amazing!! Nick Podehl narrates. (I have a crush on him!)

I agree with everyone who's said book 3 is the best. I wish the series would've ended there. 4 was okayyyy, but I really didn't like 5 :) I'm scared to read the final book, but I probably will eventually :)

I need to read it as well! I read and loved Misses Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children soooo much. I got Hollow City as soon as it came out, but for some reason haven't started it yet.

Not a Drop to Drink (Not a Drop to Drink, #1) by Mindy McGinnis was a good book I thought. We had the author for a Q&A not too long ago and we loved her! The sequel In a Handful of Dust (Not a Drop to Drink, #2) by Mindy McGinnis should be out VERY soon if not already out.

message 9196: by Clark (new)

Clark | 31 comments I am reading what's so amazing about grace by phillip yancey. my office colleague loaned it to me a very long time ago and i have only read 2 pages. I owe it to him to give it one more try. The stories in it are sort of depressing (i.e. a crack prostitute renting out her 3 year old daughter to pedophiles, the holocaust, cancer ridden patients, etc) but with some sort of redeeming value in the end. So okay, let me brace myself and read on.
