so.....how are we doing?

How's the book coming along? do you love it or hate it? I have learned that both are common reactions. I love the part where she meets Kester for the first time and yet is too shy to talk to him. So sweet. Do you hate her brother yet? Any life lessons learned so far? Let me know what you are thinking :) Personally, I still love it. I find that sometimes I have to set aside a good chunk of time (like an hour or two) so that I can really get into the flow of the author's words and understand what the characters are saying! I can't wait to hear what you guys are thinking of the book and how far along are you?

I am probably the slowest reader ever. I am still working on it. I am on book two. So far, I haven't gotten into it. I'm sure if I get to the romantic part I'll change my mind. It is a little harder to understand. However, the pictures are awesome! I'm not impressed with Prue's borther Gideon. It doesn't seem like he treats Prue with respect. Well, I'll let you know if I end up loving it.

Yeah, I totally don't like Gideon. He really has no respect for anything but himself and money. So sad. The romantic part is good, things get more interesting, and if you don't like it that is ok too :)

Ummm...I've been a bit busy....what if I haven't started it yet....? But I'm one of the world's fastest readers, so I'll get through it fast.... :)

I bet Heather will get done before me. I'm also reading the Host so we shall see if I finish Precious Bane.

Mandy said...

I am starting "The Host" too....maybe this will be a multiple book book club ;)And Heather, you better get on with your reading...

Emilee said...

You will love the host. It is a little strange in the beginning but once Jared is in the picture, you can't seem to put it down.

I'm reading, I'm reading! I'm on chapter 2
(the baiting) of Book 3. I don't dislike Gideon yet, I just don't understand him...but perhaps that will change, eh?

Okay I am probably the slowest reader. I could not find the book at the library so i am reading it online and the means the comptuer competes with my daughter and she usually wins. I will make more of a valient effort this week to get through book one but I am excited to read this book just from all your comments!

Are we going to read the host next? That would be awesome. I've already started.
