Dragon is good but not as good as I thought it'd be given all the hype - memorable characters but plot is just okay. Book Thief - not a book I'd typically pick. Thought it was okay. Can take it or leave it.<br /><br />Uglies - I like it fine, but again, nowhere near as good as the Hunger Games.<br /><br />Now, you'll probably end up hating the Hunger Games because of high expectations lol :) But it definitely is a pleasant surprise for me, especially since I had the book for over a year and never even bothered to read page 1 until this year, and I kept asking myself why i didn't read it sooner? Tho the good thing is book 2 was already out by then :)christa @ mental foodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06272799752169958460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787660033880172725.post-82844461867722854492010-08-19T23:00:32.291-03:002010-08-19T23:00:32.291-03:00I too was not happy how My Sisters Keeper came out...I too was not happy how My Sisters Keeper came out, the book was great, the movie not so much.The Social Froghttp://www.thesocialfrog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787660033880172725.post-63985754739052272562010-08-19T22:35:44.036-03:002010-08-19T22:35:44.036-03:00You should really read Hunger Games.

I think it's a fantastic book and I've recommended it to literally everyone. <br /><br />I'd say you should give it a shot... but I'd be worried with your Uglies experience. Same thing with Forest of Hands and Teeth. I've recommended it a lot, but it's another dystopian fic book. <br /><br />And I used to love Corduroy, too! I had forgotten about that one.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07151622585763596043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787660033880172725.post-6956337131957690842010-08-19T17:05:57.393-03:002010-08-19T17:05:57.393-03:00I have been enjoying reading everyones comments to...I have been enjoying reading everyones comments today on the meme.
