Book Suggestion: The Hunger Games - Page 6 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

i've been following this thread since you first made it even though i wasn't posting on YT at the time. i took your suggestion and read the hunger games book 1 & 2 and now i'm waiting for book 3 to come out. They are really good. when is the release date for the 3rd?

Right now i'm reading a vampire series called the Black Dagger Brotherhood by J R Ward. They are so awesome! Its so hard to put them down and i find myself up till 1 or 2 in the morning still reading even though i have to get up for work at 6:30am. i highly recommend them if you like vamp books. This series is more "adult" like the sookie stackhouse series instead of "teen" like the twilight series.

Aug 24th. Just a little over a month!

Thanks for sharing what you are reading. I will have to look into that one. I like to see what other YTers with similar tastes are reading. I find that they rarely disappoint with their recommendations!

Yep, I pre- order a while back, when I ordered 1 and 2. I am super excited to get it.

Thanks for the other recommendations. I like the sound of The Mortal Instruments.

Anyone else excited about the release 3rd and final book, Mockingjay? I can't wait. I pre-ordered mine today!

In the meantime, just thought I'd mention the series I'm reading now and thoroughly enjoying. It's The Mortal Instruments series, by Classandra Clare. I'm still on the first one, The City of Bones, and will finish it up tonight. Very satisfied with the story so far--it's fast paced, doesn't leave you bored and keeps you guessing as to who 'the good guys' really are. (I have a feeling I'll never REALLY find out until the very end of the series.

Also, anyone ever read The Maze Runner, but James Dashner? I've read some really good reviews about it and am thinking of adding it to my summer reading queue.

Well, I went ahead and bought The Maze Runner last night, because I was at B&N and had a coupon that was about to expire, so I guess I'll be reading it in the near future. Still have two MI books to read (and they are a considerable length) witch will probably carry me into Mockingjay time. But I can't wait to see how that one turns out too.

Also, the guy at our B&N last night mentioned that there had been a lot of interest in the upcoming release of Mockingjay. So it may be something worth ordering in advance or making plans to get early on.

I have Mockingjay in my hands!

Now if I can just make it through the work day so I can get home and read it.
