I think my rating speaks for itself.
WOW! I will stop hoping that the third one shows up on Recorded Books. I loved the first one, second was intriguing, but not as good...I believe I see concurrence...
ReplyDeleteWow!!! My son loved it...now I need to get to book 2 and then this one sometime..sorry that it was not enjoyable..that is a bummer for sure. Hope I enjoy it when I read it!
ReplyDeleteVickie ~ It could have been a mood/timing issue, but I was bored through more than half of the book.
ReplyDeleteStaci ~ I'm fairly certain you'll enjoy the second one, and I hope the third is just as good for you. It was almost a DNF for me because I was so bored, but how could I give up on the last book in a trilogy? At least I know what happens to everybody.
I've been putting off reading this one as I've read such mixed reviews and it isn't calling me. I want to finish the series but I've gotten it from the library several times and it goes back unread. I liked the first one, the second one wasn't as good so we are in agreement there.
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!
ReplyDeleteI've read and listened to the first (never reviewed so I *might* listen again just to get a post up one of these days), but I haven't had any desire to continue even though I own all three.
Oh, finished Knife of Never Letting Go--I remember seeing your less than positive review months ago. Ya. Blah. Don't think I'll continue that series either.
Hope you're well, Joy. ;)
The Hunger Games (4.5/5)
ReplyDeleteCatching Fire (2.5/5)
Mocking Jay - DNF
We're definitely on the same page! :)
Bonnie ~ I don't think it's worth the time - too many other books to pursue. However, I know what it's like to want to finish a series.
ReplyDeleteTrish ~ Yes, my thoughts were not positive of TKogNLG. I'm happy for a like-mind, but truly am sorry you didn't like it more than me. At least it was fast and we no longer have to wonder about it, right?
Les ~ OMGoodness! LOL I almost gave up on it, too.
I've been waiting to read this series for when I had the time to read them all together. Now I don't know if it's worth it!
ReplyDeleteWow! I'm really glad you did enjoy the first one though, Joy. I loved this series and gave every book a 5/5. I just loved the ending of Mockingjay, but then I'm not a fan of happy endings.
ReplyDeleteStacybuckeye ~ The first one was well worth it. You can stop there and ask somebody to fill you in on how it all turns out. :)
ReplyDeleteNicola ~ What a treat this whole series was for you! How awesome! Are they displayed in a prominent spot on your bookshelves? :)
