It made me very sad too, but I'm impressed by the author's willingness to go down the dark realistic path that he did.

Oh yeah, it's an awesome series. The last book out blew me away and gave me a serious book hang over. I can't wait for the next one to come out.
 So
      So 
   was awesome and heart breaking. I definitely would recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it especially in light of what's going on in the world today with all the turmoil in that region.

Flip had me up until 2 a.m. last night and I had to force myself to put it down to sleep. Almost didn't!
Graceling, I'm only 10% in and haven't reached that point of getting sucked in yet. Hopefully soon. I can see potential. ;)

I've heard lots of mixed reviews on Panic. But honestly, all of Lauren's books seem to have that issue! I am going to try it at some point, I just love her as a writer, so I HAVE to read it!

      Overall, I really liked Dorothy Must Die. But the first half was kind of hard to get through. The second half picks up immensely!
    
  
  
   I guess I should have expected to like it.
      I guess I should have expected to like it.I loved Unwind. Wasn't big on the Skinjacker book, but that was only because the target audience was younger.
Shusterman is quite gifted.

I took a small break to read some comics for a day or two :)

 Gonna be rereading Dorothy must die, I didn't like it that much. I was very confused and honestly just not into it. But I blame it on the fact that before I read it the week before I read darkest minds and never fade which I loved a ton and then right after that I read the chaos walking swries which was amazing, so then I started Dorothy must die and didn't get into it and I think because I had just read these 2 awesome series, so I am trying again before I read the second one
