Have a question about this list. Wonder why I loved or hated a book? Leave a comment...let's discuss.
3 comments:
agree about Sapphique, disagree about Mockingjay (I loved it even though it was so sad) but I do know it's either a love or a hate with readers.
And am seriously going to have to finally read Miss Peregrine's, James Dashner's 2nd and 3rd, and you intrigued me with The Kneebone Boy and Tuesdays at the Castle. So they are added to my list.
I'm in the midst of updating my classroom library and I was on the fence about a couple of books on your list. Thanks for helping me decide!
