Freaks of nature discussion

The title explains it all I think.

I don't really have a favorite book.. It is always difficult to choose. I do have favorite book series: which are ; vampire academy, the hungergames, the mortal instruments, and under the never sky :)

It tooooooo hard to pick but I love The Blood of Eden books, and also The Selection is very good, The mortal Instrument is very good, The Iron Fey is amazing.

I haven't read the blood of eden or the iron fey. I actually ordered the selection a few days ago. It should be ariving any day soon ! I am really excited to read it :D

I just added the blood of eden and the iron fey to my to read list ^^

Oh cool, well they are all pretty good

I love The Mortal Instruments (I am only up to City of Fallen Angels though) and the Infernal Devices even more! I have not read Under the Never Sky or Iron Fey but they are both on my to read list and I have Hunger Games, Vampire Academy and the Blood of Eden to read at home!

I am going to start the infernal devices very soon. I am first going to read finale from becca fitzpatrick and after that I will start clockwork angel :)

They are amazing! They are so much better than TMI, well I thought so anyway! :) Are the Hush, Hush series any good? I was thinking about reading them!

My Friend love the Hush series, My mom read them all also and said they werent bad

I read the first Hush Hush book and it was OK.

My favourite series include Vampire Academy, Elemental Assassin, Artemis Fowl ( has anybody else read Artemis?), Percy Jackson and Lost Voices

Oh!, and the Abhorsen series

I love vampire academy and percy jackson. I have heard of artemis fowl, but haven't read it yet.

I just finished finale, the last book of the hush hush series. The last book wasn't very accelerating or exciting. but it was good :) I would recommend it, especially if u are in to that kind of stuff :)

I love the Artemis Fowl and Percy Jackson!!!!

You should totally read it. It was very good! It's about these fairies whose technology highly supersedes ours. They live underground, undetected by humans until a 12 year old criminal genius/ mastermind (the one and only, Artemis Fowl) manages to become the 1st human to successfully capture a fairy and hold her for ransom with the help of his bodyguard, Butler.

It was a very good story and very well told. There are lots of humour as well.

You should definitely try it.

Yay! Glad you enjoy it as much as I do!

Ugh! I just finished the 5th book in the immortals series by alyson noel.. really wasn't good. Cannot recommend that series!

Me too! I also didn't like it. I read about halfway and felt like throwing up. Did not like it at all. :-(

Thanks! I will read the first one again soon so I can read the second one!

I have heard about this series but actually have not read them myself. I kind of want to now so I can see for myself how terrible they are! Have you guys read Noel's other series, the one with Riley Bloom? They are terrible too!

Havent read those, but my sister has but she likes all of Noel's Series

Cera wrote: "Havent read those, but my sister has but she likes all of Noel's Series"

I just found them for one: childish and secondly: boring. The last one was an improvement to the rest of the series but nothing great.

Well her new series, Faded isnt that bad, but they are very boring

Yes I heard that too but I might still give them a go. I heard that they are making it into a movie, is that right?

I dont know, i think they are but thy been making a lot of books into movie lately

Yeah that's true. I heard they are making Fallen into one!

Havent read Fallen but heard it was amazing, I know City is becoming one, Vampire Academy and also Divergent

It was not exactly amazing, well for me anyway, but was not as terrible as many people complained. City is coming out in August. I knew they were making Divergent but did not know about Vampire Academy - really want to read it! They are also making Fault in our Stars but I have not read that either.

Good to know, i will give it a try then. I cant wait for City of Bones but it looks horribly off. Divergent has horrible people for acting none of them look right. I been waiting to read Vampire Academy too! Just haven't got around to it. I haven't read Fault in our stars but hear it was very good.

Yes, they are worth a shot! I know huge TMI fan - I mean I have only read the first three books but I enjoyed them! - but I think they have seriously mucked the movie up! I mean what is with Clary's actress, she is not even red-headed and Isabelle is taller than her!!!!!! My friends have raved about Divergent, supposed to be serious bad actors! Same, really want to read Vampire Academy! The Fault in Our Stars seems good though they casted the guy from divergent as the main boy and my friends are pretty made about that!

I know right!! Isabella is tall not some short person and Clary hair is just like. Are you color blind!!!! How many times did they talk about the red hair, Magus is Asian which me and my friends were mad about instill we found out he is really half Asian. The Divergent actors are all horrible, they look like nothing like i picture and once they make a movie i use the actors as my picture. Like Jace, he looks bad!!! They seem to do that a lot, used the same actors in books movies..... It is a bit weird

Ugh! I totally agree! I could rage and rage all day about the casting of City! I mean how could they stuff up the two main parts of Isabelle's and Clary's appearance! So frustrating!

I totally agree! the casting is kinda off :( I am still excited to watch it though!

You are right. They are really terrible. I kept saying to myself that it was supposed to get better.. but it didn't! it's really really bad.

Stéphanie wrote: "I totally agree! the casting is kinda off :( I am still excited to watch it though!"

Absolutely! Wouldn't miss it for the world! But still mad at the casting director! :)

Ive read the whole Riley Bloom series. They aren't outstanding but Riley is a much more interesting character than her sister, Ever. There also isnt really a lot of romance but I didnt mind. At least Noel made up for it through some character development and cool Riley action scenes.

I do wish she had written more than 4 books though. It just feels like Riley deserved more of her story told. Especially after her sister got that whole loooong boring series.

Riley Bloom is much better than the Immortals series.

Vampire Academy is AWESOME cant wait for the movie!
The cast seems OK and yeah Cera, I think you're right, Ive noticed the sudden upswing of books-to-movies too.

If there was one book/series that you would like to see as a movie with the perfect cast,set,costumes,etc. what would that book/series be?

Kristenj2009 wrote: "If there was one book/series that you would like to see as a movie with the perfect cast,set,costumes,etc. what would that book/series be?"

It will have to be Blood of Eden (since that is my favorite series of all time) or The selection or tiger curse

I just hope they don't screw VA up! I love that series!

I have not read the Immortals yet and I did enjoy the Riley Bloom books. Well sort of, they were okay. They were written well and everything, they just were not a favourite series of mine. Except the Whisper, I liked that one and I really liked Bodhi.

I like your new Profile photo rachel!

Stéphanie wrote: "I just hope they don't screw VA up! I love that series!"

Adrian and Dimitri forever!!!
I can't wait to see the movie! Have you seen the new set pic. Richelle posted?
