You and the book will find the right time to come together.Peaceful Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10265198438524420667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24215158.post-60566755493927859832011-02-10T18:43:53.595-07:002011-02-10T18:43:53.595-07:00I have been trying to convince myself to pick up S...I have been trying to convince myself to pick up Small Persons With Wings again . . . ugh. So I know how you feel! I read several great reviews for it and the cover really pulled me in but after a few pages I just wasn't feeling it. I put it down to read These Things Hidden (not YA but excellent) and Ruined (YA and fantastic) and just haven't picked it up again.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02660191802044637204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24215158.post-68379588949647765252011-02-10T10:36:14.476-07:002011-02-10T10:36:14.476-07:00That would be SO much fun!!

The farthest I got was in the audio version (didn't love the narrator and that never helps) I think it was right after the boys from the maze got in for the night on the first night he was there. I swear to you I will read it!!Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10209234434495701611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24215158.post-91421253212698343602011-02-10T10:22:40.052-07:002011-02-10T10:22:40.052-07:00*GASP* Oh, Jana, Jana, Jana. . .

Even though I've read a million glowing reviews about MOCKINGJAY, I still hate it. I just can't slog through it. This is always really disappointing, I think. You're all excited about the book because people you respect liked it, but then it just doesn't grab you. That sucks.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06851403823244758904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24215158.post-10404298745927453482011-02-10T07:46:25.115-07:002011-02-10T07:46:25.115-07:00Alison: I haven't read Prophecy of Sisters eit...Alison: I haven't read Prophecy of Sisters either! The synopsis just never hooked me, but I haven't even tried and maybe I would like it if I tried.<br /><br /><br />Catherine: Knife seems to be one that you either love or not. I always feel bad when I gush about it to people and then they don't really like it. It's a big read to not love. Also, I listened to City of Bones & City of Glass so when it got time to read City of Ash I read the book because that goes faster for me than audio.Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10209234434495701611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24215158.post-46424057053234776682011-02-10T07:25:00.018-07:002011-02-10T07:25:00.018-07:00Just shows how subjective stories are.

Since I bought these two books, I will probably give them each another shot.Catherine Stinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08131569196977321229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24215158.post-38925141965594589262011-02-10T07:21:22.595-07:002011-02-10T07:21:22.595-07:00I was not a fan of Michelle Zink's Prophecy of...I was not a fan of Michelle Zink's Prophecy of the Sisters series. It's very popular amongst the blogosphere. I managed to get through the first book, but couldn't make it through the second one. Too bad. It's a really good premise, but just doesn't speak to me.Alison Can Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908868606441539344noreply@blogger.com
