MOCKINGJAY by: Suzanne Collins

     OK I've read the first two books before I started this. Mostly I listened to them with my wife. I don't really like Audio Books because I don't retain what I've heard like when I read it.

     For the first book (THE HUNGER GAMES) I just want to compare it to the move that recently was released. The second book (CATCHING FIRE) I want to tell all the things they can't fallow through because of the changes from the first movie. In conclusion I've decided not to write anything on them here.

    For this book I fell strait into it without any warnings, I read it in two days. I love how this book picks up right where the second leaves off. You can't really follow along with what's going on if you have not read the first two. In every one of these books something happens that I'm not ready for or I think will happen later. This book series should be a must read on anyone's list. My wife and I listened to the first to together and now we read the last one together. I'm interested to see if Suzanne Collins has any other great works for me to read. The writhing stile is at a high school level for the Comprehension but the reading is around young adult level.
   Please read this great work of art along with the other Two.

The Wolf Gift, by: Anne Rice

     This book was much anticipated do to Anne Rice had not released a book like this in quite some time. I have been a big follower of Anne Rice's every since I was introduced to Interview With A Vampire. I have read all of the Vampire Chronicles and the Mayfair Witches. I am so excited that one of my most favorite authors will be writing for young adults again.
     In this great book I got into a lot of trouble because I just could not put it down. I felt that Anne Rice still has the stuff to write what the young want's to read. Like with the Vampire Chronicles she may be ahead of the curve on where people will put their imagination. I love like with the Mayfair Witches she has left it open so that she can bring in other creatures. One part of the book when Reuben talks with the Marrok the oldest of their kind, Marrok talking about how the change comes to pass tells them "when it is given with the deep bite, injecting the Chrism directly into the bloodstream at many points, well, it acts as it did with you, in about seven to fourteen days. The moon has nothing to do with in. Such legends have a different origin and nothing to do with us."
     I thought the first part of the book was a little hard to get into, and the chapters were a little long and I had just finished another book so my mind was still on this book.
     I feel that every young person who enjoys a good book will truly enjoy this book. It took no time to read this book and as with all Anne Rice's books they stay with you for a long time.

     Thank you Anne Rice for Writing that which we all love you for.

The Gift, by: James Patterson

         This was a great book, I was caught up in it from chapter one. There was a few surprises twards the end when they get to see their parents. I like how this series fallows from one book to the other where you could pick up book one and not want to stop reading until the last book. I think that I will reread this series once it's been completed.
        The only thing that bothers me is how the two main characters switch from one to the other, this kind of makes me feel like I reading a drama instead of a great action fantasy. I would recommend this book to any one that likes youth fantasy books. This is such a fast read that most people will finish this in a matter of day's. As I read every word, it only took me a couple day's to finish this.
