I've heard amazing things about it!!<br /><br />The Maze Runner... I get why you're walking away. It was interesting, but I still haven't been able to bring myself to read the second. It's just not for me. And that's okay. :)fakestephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08178042157823156839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149417454688957715.post-44931439865980552762011-10-13T09:08:46.103-05:002011-10-13T09:08:46.103-05:00I have a confession, Courtney. I didn't read ...I have a confession, Courtney. I didn't read this whole post. But I had a good reason! I just bought If I Stay a couple weeks ago, since you, Mandy, and Tracy all seem to love both of the books. But I was worried your review might contain some spoilery info, since you were reviewing the second book as well.<br />And, as you know, you and I are total opposites when it comes to knowing about the ends of books. I've actually gotten to the point now that I'll read a description of a book once, like on Goodreads, and then when I get around to reading the book, a lot of the time it has been a while since I first read the description, so I try to refrain from reading the description on the book itself. Or the little blurbs that other authors write. There was a blurb on the book Hourglass that I really wish I hadn't read, because although it didn't give away the ending, it gave away a major part of the book, and I think it would have been awesome to find that part out by myself...<br />So anyway, I know you don't agree with me on that stuff, but that's why I didn't read your entire post. But once I read these books, I'll come back and read it!Andrea @ The Overstuffed Bookcasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09536790368678245670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9149417454688957715.post-35414197775741425202011-10-12T10:35:35.683-05:002011-10-12T10:35:35.683-05:00Pffft... life is too short and there are too many ...Pffft... life is too short and there are too many great books out there to waste time on slogging your way through something that just isn't gelling by the 251st page. <br /><br />I bought If I Stay months and months ago, but haven't read it yet. Maybe I should bump it up to the top of the TBR pile.<br /><br />(I can't wait for Book Club this month!!

And kudos to you for walking away! When I posted about walking away from The Knife of Never Letting Go, some people were like, no, stay with it, yes, it's incredibly sad but it's so good. I'm sure some people will say that about Maze Runner, and maybe they're right, but when there's so many other books out there, why waste your time if you're not clicking with it? It'll just slow down your reading and possibly give you book block.Kate @Midnight Book Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01220575670960466054noreply@blogger.com
