I read this book while I was up in the wee hours of the morning after going to bed too early. I really enjoyed it.

A student lent me this book, so of course, I let it sit on my desk for a while. I have a bad habit of that! :) Anyhow, I have mixed feelings about this book. On one hand, I completely understand how the kiddos who LOVED Twilight are now growing and want something a little more... It put me in that spot where I wanted to put the book down but I just needed to finish. Obviously it was slightly interesting, since I am writing this review at one in the morning. I think I'll blame that on my long afternoon nap and the Mountain Dew.

This book was a return to form for me. I loved Koontz's earlier works. (Lightning and Watchers being my favorite.) I know the world has been enthralled with the Odd Thomas series, which I just could not love as much as I did the previously mentioned two. I wish Koontz would have written more Christopher Snow books. Tangent aside, I really enjoyed Relentless. The dialogue and characterization got me hooked just like they did in my favorite Koontz stories.


DOOM!

I liked this book, even though it was over the top. It seemed to be purposefully that way, and for that I can accept it. I'm not rushing out to read more books in the series. (I just typed “dread” instead of “read”... hmm) Anyway, it was a fun little romp and I would read more if I had the time.

I had trouble getting into the book due to the large amounts of info at the beginning. I watched the movie (subtitled) as I was about halfway through due to the amazing-ness of Netflix. That renewed my interest in the book and I finished it over break. I wish some of the graphic parts weren't as graphic, but I know it helps shape Salander's character. I'm not sure if I will read the next two books or not.

I didn't think it was as good as the stories that were focused on Tally, but I enjoyed it.

Satisfying end to the series!

Yes, I cried at the end... in the middle of the cafeteria at my school. Although it was sad, I was satisfied with the ending and agreed with the point that Gale made as he was talking to Peeta. I'm so glad that my students are enjoying the series. (We also can't wait for the Accelerated Reader quiz to be ready!)

I really enjoy this series!

Re-read this book today to help me re-focus.

A friend of mine gave me this book to give to another friend of ours, but I decided to read it before I pass it along. I think it's an important topic to focus on, as it's so prevalent in our society. With a strong focus on God, this book helped to direct thoughts to where they should be.

Creepy creepy creepy, but I loved it!

Many many good things to remember about ministry and working in a church.

This book was quite entertaining. I enjoyed the suspense of the Hunger Games. Even though this book has a bit of the romance factor, it wasn't too overdone to be sweet and sappy. Maybe I'll read this one for my class!

A good romp into the Doctor's world, but it wasn't the most exciting or thrilling thing I've read. Don't get me wrong, I liked it. There were sparkles of what made me love Rose and the Doctor so much, but they weren't bright throughout the story.

This book was just as great as [book:Alcatraz Versus The Evil Librarians] Brandon Sanderson... I mean... Alcatraz Smedry has done it again. This book was just as funny if not more. I love how the beginning of each chapter addresses the reader and talks to them. Must must suggest this one!

This book was decent for a novel based on an established TV series. The plot seemed to slowly climb to a climax and then suddenly drop as the turn was revealed. I would have appreciated more resolution. Overall, it was okay.

I read the beginning of this book out loud to my students and it got them hooked. Just a super-fun romp through what might be like if you were the progeny of a Greek/Roman god.

This was freaky, and I liked it! I wasn't quite sure what to think of it at first, but by the time things started getting interesting, it was hard to put down.

This was an entertaining graphic novel with a very bleak ending.

This is my favorite Dean Koontz book.

Though I always have high hopes for the happy ending, I was satisfied with how this ended. Much better than Mockingjay.
