I love Lauren DeStefano's writing and I care about the characters; she didn't lose me as some authors do on the second installment. I'm a fickle reader and often don't read all the way through a trilogy, so the fact that I'm still looking forward to the third is probably higher praise than I realize. :)Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-31350116247806797222012-04-05T12:24:28.114-05:002012-04-05T12:24:28.114-05:00I didn't love Wither but enjoyed it enough to ...I didn't love Wither but enjoyed it enough to look forward to reading Fever.

There was a point that I closed the book thinking, "This is getting so annoying, everyone being sick and unconscious so much of the time," and then I saw the title and thought *headdesk*. Obviously, it's about an actual fever, not some representation like <i>the fever to find her way home</i>. That helped me to understand the fever as a plot point. Anyway, I still enjoyed it, although it is pretty harrowing.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-58499599587088507672012-04-02T11:09:50.765-05:002012-04-02T11:09:50.765-05:00I'm not sure it's for you, either, Kathy. ...I'm not sure it's for you, either, Kathy.

LOL It's been at least 10 days since I finished, so I probably should have mentioned that I would have given it a harsher review if I wrote immediately, as I closed the book, but it's one that I'm still glad I read.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-73853290573822752652012-04-02T09:22:13.949-05:002012-04-02T09:22:13.949-05:00I liked Wither a lot, and need to get to this one ...I liked Wither a lot, and need to get to this one soon. I have read some other reviews that were tepid, but I need to find out what I think for myself. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us on this one. Your post was very insightful. I also love that picture of those flowers. They are just so bright and colorful!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-73517214599478323162012-04-02T07:20:29.246-05:002012-04-02T07:20:29.246-05:00I won a copy of the first book but I'm just no...I won a copy of the first book but I'm just not sure this is for me.bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-11332362981325090062012-04-01T22:33:48.034-05:002012-04-01T22:33:48.034-05:00I didn't like Fever as much.
