I know the original US covers gradually became darker, as well, so I assume that's what will happen with these new ones, too.<br /><br />Aww, Small!

I'm really looking forward to seeing the rest of the series. I hope they progress in maturity like the books themselves. The first one seems so innocent yet holds so much promise. Oops, tangent :)<br /><br />I <i>still</i> need to read The Knife of Never Letting Go and The Monstrumologist, both of which I own, and both of which I've been meaning to read solely because of your high praise. *sigh* someday. :)Small Reviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16072352095510905410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4619019089060464771.post-63745158167658838852013-03-27T21:46:24.199-06:002013-03-27T21:46:24.199-06:00Oh, I really do hope you fn the time!

Just need to find some time to devote to them.). I haven't read The Monstrumologist, but I am definitely interested in Yancey's forthcoming book The 5th Wave. And Harry Potter forever and always. :)Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4619019089060464771.post-11533365131723726432013-03-27T10:00:27.452-06:002013-03-27T10:00:27.452-06:00Ha ha ... yes, obviously.

I guess what I really wanted to know is out of those 6 books, put them in order of YOUR MOST favorite on down. That way I'd know which one YOU thought was best, 2nd best etc. I would chose to read them in THAT order because you've given me great recommendations in the past and I totally trust your assessment of the books..

It's pretty hard to tell you what you should be reading first and what you should be reading last, as it should really be up to your taste and reading schedule. <br /><br />I will say though that numbers #1, #3, and #5 are incomplete series so far, so you may want to get to those later depending if you don't like to wait in between books. I believe they will all be complete by this year's end though.<br /><br />Numbers #5 and #6 are long books (both in page length and complexity) and will take you longer to read than the other ones. <br /><br />For me, audiobooks ares always good for fitting in when I have review copies to read and don't have time to read anything else just for me, so maybe those ones first?<br /><br />This is tough, Gina! I would honestly recommend all of them, but it's tough to say which would be best to read first.Ayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639250102446794830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4619019089060464771.post-68958149377220478312013-03-27T06:49:19.759-06:002013-03-27T06:49:19.759-06:00Heehee, of course!
