Either way, I'm going to find these.

I also LOVED the addition of Viola as narrator.

That's the only way I could get it from the library. This one ended up being my favorite. Like you, I loved Viola's voice and I felt like I really loved the characters in this one. I really need to get my reviews up!Melissa (Avid Reader)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02119628715475021774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-71672594786206681572011-12-15T12:41:32.147-05:002011-12-15T12:41:32.147-05:00After you had reviewed the first one I found both ...After you had reviewed the first one I found both on my libraries system.

I read them all back to back too. You almost have to in the way he writes them. I really do think this was the rare series that kept getting better … and I love how he kept things so gray instead of black and white … just like life.Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-60951676388526080842011-12-15T11:11:47.877-05:002011-12-15T11:11:47.877-05:00I cannot believe that you read over 500+ pages on ...I cannot believe that you read over 500+ pages on your phone.

And for the third book I did have to wait for it to publish (except that it came out a few months earlier in the UK so I ordered that version via the book depository so that my wait wasn't as long). This has got to be one of the most intense series I've ever read!Alycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10919057159829023714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-33042371180111935892011-12-15T10:32:30.038-05:002011-12-15T10:32:30.038-05:00Ok, the library is just stinky for dangling that o...Ok, the library is just stinky for dangling that over your head and then snatching it away like that! I am so caught up in your opinions of this book that I am going to try to read the series before the year is out, even if I have to postpone my Christmas read, which is a short story, so no biggie. I can't wait to fall in love with these books! This was such a wonderful and exciting review as well! Kudos to you for getting so many people excited about this book!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-35822116469411629542011-12-15T08:38:45.542-05:002011-12-15T08:38:45.542-05:00I'm so envious really that you got to read thi...I'm so envious really that you got to read this for the first time!
