Kim's Reviews:

The Crimson Crown (Seven Realms Bk #4) by Cinda Williams Chima
It was a riveting story. Being the fourth of the Seven Realms series, it ended it beautifully. Very worth the read.

Grim edited by Christine Johnson (Contains stories by many popular YA authors)
Excellent collection of short stories. Good variety of humor and literary works.

Catching Fire (Hunger Games Bk #2) by Suzanne Collins 
Well written. Very gripping story. Wish I had read before I saw the movie.


The Mockingjay (Hunger Games Bk #3) by Suzanne Collins 
It seemed as though the writer had lost the desire or was pushed to finish the story. It was very disjointed and difficult to read.

Jenny's Reviews:

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins (Hunger Games bk #1) 
It was good and definitely full of action. Disturbing, however that a society would operate in this way. 


Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins (Hunger Games bk #2)
Very good book – Can’t wait to see how it all ends!

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins (Hunger Games bk #3)
SPOILER Definitely a page turner! So glad that Peeta and Katniss got together. (Highlight to read)

I laughed so hard! Wonderful!

Divergent by VeronicaRoth (Divergent Trilogy bk #1)
I liked it a lot. I see similarities to the Hunger Games. I love to see a female heroine.

Insurgent by Veronica Roth (Divergent Trilogy bk #2)
Action packed! Could not put it down!
