I'm assuming these are like . . . Teen-rated? I might try reading them someday, but . . . ah, you guys know me.

I've got my fan fiction to occupy me.

Alexa

i need ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING to give me my 100 fix.

and i love teen books personally.

April7739

I actually do, too, to be honest. I have a huge young adult literature collection in my classroom.

I might break down and get these at some point. Once I've read all the fan fiction out there.

Alexa

yeah i love YA novels. Read so many of them.

hate to break it to you april but you will NEVER read all the fan fiction.

April7739

This is true, that would be an impossible task.

I love YA novels, I really disliked this book series (but still read them all )

I thought they were poorly written and too much POV's. And then the story progression was really slow. There was virtually no build-up and then in the end almost nothing happened

I would put them on the same place on the rating scale as Allegiant (unless you love that book, you'll know what I mean )
Definitely not up to the level of THG or VA.

Alexa

oh great, you tell me this after i bought them all.

but oh well, theres bellarke so at least i can enjoy that.

yeah, I'm not the biggest divergent fan. it just kinda bores me.

girl under the floor

You should've asked (me) before buying

TBH, I loved Divergent, liked Insurgent, but absolutely hated Allegiant. It just got worse as the serie progressed. And it's not because of the way it ended, as long as it's well written and in character I can roll with any ending. But Allegiant was so poorly written

I really hope you enjoy the Bellarke, though I don't recall there being Much of it
I only kept reading it because I wanted to know what storyline the writer intended - a boring one.

Alexa

Ha ha well I've read some pretty bad book so I can't be that bad… And I liked divergebt OK but I can't even get through insurgent I'm bored.

Personally I hated the third hunger games book couldn't even read it.

I've been reading the fifth wave… I'm only five chapters in but I really like it I like the writing style.

Damocles

I was obsessed with the HG books. And Harry Potter, of course. I haven't really read any other YA books (I'm not one, but the stories can be fun).

Oh wait, I read that one about a girl...where they choose your mate or something. Hated it.

I actually think The 100 is much better written than the Divergent series. I was able to read The 100 and not feel like I needed to edit it every few sentences. I'm not a huge fan of the POV chapters b/c it makes the story feel disjointed to me. I'm much more of a 3rd person omniscient fan. Anyways, I made it halfway through Divergent before I put it down b/c it honestly read like poorly written fan fiction where the author didn't understand how to put together a complex sentence.

The first book had a little Bellarke in it but the second book had quite a lot of it. I have the third book but haven't finished reading it yet. I need to though.

April7739

Heck, I might read 'em at some point.

Anyone here ever read the Gone series by Michael Grant?

brave princess

No, I haven't April. Is it a YA series?

April7739

Technically, but I think it gears itself more towards, like, 16 and up. It's pretty dark. I feel like a lot of people who like The 100 would like that series.

girl under the floor

Read the entire Gone series, but I thought it was so poorly written (though honestly, that could be just my translation)
