Its been a minute, right?

I just finished the Hunger Games series. Meh. I loved the first one but the following two were a bit annoying. I dont want to ruin it for anyone that has not read them so Ill just leave it at that.

What are you reading? Any good suggestions?

I loved the first one, liked the second one, and was dissapointed in the last one.

Do you like young adult lit? If so I recommend "Daughter of Smoke and Bone".

I am alarmingly obsessed with the hunger games, and can't stop rereading them.

just finished the girl with the dragon tattoo, which took a couple of tries to get into, but then I couldn't put it down. I recommend it.

Has anyone read the other two? Are they worth buying?

And do you all know there is a new dark tower book coming out?

King can stop beating that horse anytime.

(but yeah, I'd read it. totally.)

I read the first one in 1985 and the last in 2006 ( I think..). Been reading them for 20 years. I am a DT junkie and I hope he never stops writing about them. I can't wait, I miss Roland, Eddie, Susanna and Jake, and Oy!

I rented the Swedish mini-series of all three, and although I liked the other two, the first was definitely the best in terms of story.

Currently: The Information by James Gleick

Pretty good history of information - early computing, ciphers, information theory, talking drums, etc. About 3/4 of the way through. It's pretty long (544 pgs).



Land sakes alive, the steak's alive.

I'm reading this



Really good so far

I'm also kind of reading this



depending on my mood. Also good

This is next

I love John Green. His latest book, "The Fault In Our Stars", is amazing.

King's new book will be called "The Wind Through the Keyhole"

Sounds like a fart joke.

Ginny: I do not often read young adult lit but thanks for your suggestion. I mostly picked up the Hunger Games because of the reactions and suggestions of the people on this board.

oh and I loved loved loved the Dark Tower series. I would probably not read them again or pick up another book but Im glad I had Roland in my life for a while there.

I just bought The Fault In Our Stars yesterday. I'm not very far into it but so far I like it.

I feel about the same as Ginny when it comes to Hunger Games.

I'm also reading this:

How do you like it DJ?

I'm only a few chapters in but it's nicely written and seems a quick read.

Neady:
Was yours signed?

No. I'm reading it electronically.

I bought Mrs. Bucks a ticket to a book signing in Dallas when king released that one last November.

Still haven't read it.

I like it so far. Has a different feel than most of his other books, at least to me. Unfortunately it's going to take me forever since I'm not reading much these days.
