Well, I liked the trilogy. I thought the first book was by far the best. I didn't think the other two's story lines were as strong. I also thought the writing stye was slightly different and I didn't like it as much. I read them in middle school, they're an easy read.

I think you should know that there was like a two year gap between when I read the first one and the other ones.(The different authors confused me, I still don't know why the first one says its by Jones, when its says Zizou Corder right on the cover) So the differences I found in the books might simply be because was older and sorta out grew them.

I would say if you get a chance or run out of things to read get the books, but i wouldn't rush out and get them. Also if you don't like the first one very much, I wouldn't even bother getting the last two.

That was my fear, that I wouldn't appreciate it because I am older. But at the same time I thought it would be a fun, easy read. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to tell me, it helped.

Read anything good recently?

Well, I read The Hunger Games series. I liked the first book, but thought the following 2 books got progressively worse. Overall it was an OK series. The Mortal Instruments was also an OK series. It was more consistent, but I found myself constantly annoyed about something, mainly the over dramatic plot or the writing style.(I found the first three free online, but the fourth isn't available yet, so I haven't read it, but i hear its by far the worst in the series.) I also read The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling. Its basically a collection of short stories, some of the stories are way better then others. I particularly liked the ones that are about Mowgli. I also really enjoyed the ones about the white seal and Riki Tiki Tavi the mongoose. (There are old children's movies about these two.) Overall its a good book, its written slightly different from modern stuff. Its easy to understand, but different enough to be intriguing.

Actually I have read the Jungle Book. Good stories they are! And I haven't read either Mortal Instruments or the Hunger Games, i want to though because everyone else has. Although you are the first person that I met that didn't like them. Maybe I will maybe I won't, but I have a feeling that I won't as much as the others (YA gets on my nerves sometimes).
