How was it? I've been looking at it.


message 9: by Jex (new)

Jex (jexball) Another book knocked off my list. Newspaper Blackout by Austin Kleon . Another goodreads winner.


message 10: by Adriana (new)

Adriana It was pretty good. Hazel was very likable. The mother annoyed me because she didn't want her to be friends with Jack who was her best friend anymore. The ending didn't really satisfy. It was too abrupt but otherwise it was pretty good book.

I like those books and own all but the last few out, but I think it's going to be one of those never ending series.


message 13: by Adriana (new)

Adriana Yeah I think the same. (:

I only read some in elementary and I thought I'd read it again. Isn't there different versions of it? Not all the characters are in all the different series right?

-First series is Firepaw/heart/star
-Second is on a group of 6
-Third is on 3 litter mates
-Fourth is on 2 litter mates and two of the litter mates in series three
-Then there is a bunch of guides, special editions (tell side stories) and manga (tell more side stores or fill in blanks).

But you have some of the same cats the whole way through.


message 15: by Adriana (new)

Adriana Wow. Thanks :D
I'll definitely have to read the whole first series. I knew he was going to be star!

Jex (jexball) Finished listening to Unbearable Lightness by Portia de Rossi on audio book last night. It was an amazing story! It's about Portia de Rossi, the actress, and she narrates the audio book herself. By having her narrate I feel you get more out of the book emotion wise. This was also a goodreads 2010 winner.
