I was able to get through the first two books in about 2-3 days each. Could not manage to put them down, once I found the time to read them!
The last one, however, "Mockingjay," took me at least 3 weeks. Not to completely ruin it for anyone, but this book was beyond boring.
While reading it, all I could picture was grey, doom, gloom, cloudy days. It was seriously just boring and more boring. I do suggest you read it, or better yet, read the synopsis, and save yourself the $7.00
In the middle of the book, I looked online, read the plot, and I was completely satisfied with that. Truly. That's how bored I was.
Books I am currently reading:
- War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy (I am very intimidated by this book for some reason... so I've decided to give it a go.)
- Fairy Tales Every Child Should Know by Hamilton Write Mable (I'm reading stories out of this book to N every night. The big words, I am hoping, will improve his vocabulary. Or put him to sleep. So far, at least one of those things happen every night.)
- Flappers and Philosophers by Francis Scot Fitzgerald
- An Essay Concerning Human Understanding by John Locke
Books I just finished:
- The Giver by Lois Lowry (I've read this before as a child, easy read, but I loved it)
- The Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
- Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
- The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
- History of a Suicide by Jill Biolosky (I stopped reading this, but that's not because it was badly written, or uninteresting.)
