Feature and Follow: September 20



Q:  What hyped up book do you think was worth all the talk?

Oh, there are so many!  Harry Potter and the Hunger Games . . . more recently I loved Blood Red Road by Moira Young and Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore, and Beth Revis' Across the Universe series is great, too.

    I loved Blood Red Road, too. At first I wasn't sure that I was going to be able to get used to the writing style, but my focus quickly shifted to the amazing story and characters.

      The voice did take a bit of getting used to, but I'm glad I powered through because it was so worth it!

    Hopping through. New follower. I'm horrible. I haven't read any of those. I did love Graceling. I want to reread it and then read Fire before I get to Bitterblue.

      I thought both Fire and Bitterblue were worthy successors of Graceling, I hope you like them!

      I can't put a finger on why I loved it so much, but Across the Universe is a personal fave.

      I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! The voice can be a bit much to get over at first, but try to stick it through!

    Someone else recommended 'Blood Red Road' as well, which I've just put on request at the library (can't wait to read it, it sounds really good!)

    I just finished 'A Million Suns' last night, and holy cheese puffs it was good. I can't wait to read the next book this spring.
