As the book itself states the sequel is never as good as the first book. In this case this statement is totally wrong! This sequel is very fast paced and the twists are strong and unexpected! ]]> Rating844673961 Mon, 07 Apr 2025 05:27:17 -0700 <![CDATA[Deb liked a review]]> /
Deb liked Debbie's review of The Sequel (The Book Series, #2):
The Sequel by Jean Hanff Korelitz
"Thank you to MacMillan Audio for an ALC and Celadon Books for a paperback and allowing me to be a part of this readalong.

Enjoyed The Plot and was interested to see what Anna was up to in the sequel, interestingly titled as it is. She did not disappoint. Twisty as can be!

Julia Wheelan as always was fabulous with narration!"

I think this is the best book of the Hunger Game series. We are told Hamitch's story but not only that we get a view into the games that will become Katniss' world. We see how all the characters in our first introduction to the Hunger Games are interconnected. So beautifully written. I now have to go back and re-read from the beginning with Hunger Games! ]]> ReadStatus9245443511 Sat, 29 Mar 2025 06:02:14 -0700 <![CDATA[Deb is currently reading 'Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism']]> /review/show/7444508811 Careless People by Sarah Wynn-Williams Deb is currently reading Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism by Sarah Wynn-Williams

I listened to this story of the young women who worked painting instruments for the military and fwatch dials with Radium. Their story is very disturbing and sad. Kate Moore doesn't shy away from the details of the diseases these young woman had to suffer. This is also a story of the first act of judicial decision for workers in unsafe environments. It took me a while to get through this. It is very sad and I kept shaking my head with shock throughout this story. ]]>
