David Estes Fans and YA Book Lovers Unite! discussion

Tracy and I are starting a buddy read of the second book of the Nightshade series on Wed, June 26th. Everyone is welcome to join! Read at your own pace, and use spoiler tags for any spoilers!

I have started Jenny. I finished Wither and it was blah and the ending stinks. Anyway, nice to get back to good reading, well listening.

Awesome! I will be starting here in a little bit!

Okay, I am 47% of the way in. (view spoiler)[ So the thing that's sticking out for me right now and its kind of bugging me, is Calla's obsession with Ren. It almost seems to me like the Keepers may have done something with the bethroved that makes them "attached" with each other..like some king of bond. I really am not liking Adne right now, what a biotch! I think she's trying to make Conner jealous with Shay. We've learned so much about the Searchers and the Keepers,and how much Calla has been brainwashed. (hide spoiler)]

Darn Jenny! I think I am at chapter 11.(view spoiler)[I don't know if there is a bond but remember she has been told since what birth? that she was going to be mated with Ren. I think Calla is a little wishy washy about both of them. She should just step back from both until she decides who or what she wants. Well...that would be the logical thing to do. (hide spoiler)]

I agree! I just finished it! Overall, I really liked it, but a few things really bugged me-- (view spoiler)[ Mainly, that I thought she had finally decided to give up on Ren, and choose Shay when she cut her hair and was with Shay. But then she turns around the next day to go get Ren??? I couldn't believe Ansel sold her out like that, he made me so sad! I'm glad they got a few members of her pack, back, though. That whole weaving thing is really cool, especially how they weaved the school from Iowa to Italy! (hide spoiler)]

I have the third book, so let me know if you want to read it!

OK I haven't gotten that far! I am listening on the way to and from work and at lunch so it takes longer to finish. I will see if the library has the third.

Just checked and and they have it Whooo Hoo!

Sorry, I haven't been on, my internet was down! I have Bloodrose already checked out...do you want to start it this weekend? Maybe on Saturday?
