Allison isn't the end just....AUGH. I want to break into Suzanne Collins' house.


Allison (not because I'm a creeper, just because I want the third manuscript)

:)


JG (Introverted Reader) I can't wait to get this from my library!


Natalee Love you review. Classic.

I knew what you meant. I obviously feel the same. I think the two of us together could take her by force. I can't wait a whole year. See, this is what I hate about knowing about a series from the beginning. It's excruciating!


JG (Introverted Reader) I'll join you guys. I don't want to wait. That was just heartless to leave us there.

I love this review, Misty. You said everything that really needed to be said.


Misty I just couldn't even process at that point. Just sheer reaction. I will end up reviewing it in full on the blog, but this might stay the way it is.


Misty Hey, Catching Fire. I own you now. Thanks, Floribelle. :)


Jenn I am down for the stealing of the third book.

Resa Wow five stars!

Misty, weren't you expecting that cliff hanger? I mean you read the Gregor series right? After reading 3 of them, and feeling in deep in a mess as when I started, I just couldn't take the suspense and stopped the series. Hunger Games is better though, but same style of writing.

Sara ♥ Gregor series is over now... so I guess the cliffhangers aren't that big a deal anymore... as long as you have the next book lined up and ready to go. Are those books any good?


Misty Nope, Resa, I haven't read Gregor. Been told to (I think by you, among others...).
Sara ♥ -- you're asking if the Gregor series is good, right? Because I KNOW you're not talking about The Hunger Games...

Resa O ok Misty for some reason I thought you did.

Sara, The Gregor series is very good, it definitely kept me on the edge. I do think the series was drawn out, and I lost the time to finish it, and never got back on track. I think Gregor could have been as good as The Hunger Games if it was just a little more realistic. I mean human-size bats are a little stretch, but then again I think Gregor is for younger kids.

Sara ♥ I definitely know that The Hunger Games is good. Haha! I'll have to check out the Gregor Series..... as soon as I get a second to breathe!!
