The Nerd Herd discussion

In the beginning they were a group of nine. Nine aliens who left their home planet of Lorien when it fell under attack by the evil Mogadorian. Nine aliens who scattered on Earth. Nine aliens who look like ordinary teenagers living ordinary lives, but who have extraordinary, paranormal skills. Nine aliens who might be sitting next to you now. The Nine had to separate and go into hiding.

The Mogadorian caught Number One in Malaysia, Number Two in England, and Number Three in Kenya. All of them were killed. John Smith, of Paradise, Ohio, is Number Four. He knows that he is next.

I didn't like it all that much, I thought it was pretty slow and boring

LOVED it...

The blurb made me want to read it. I got through it because I hoped the interesting part would come. I read the next two because I thought that maybe the first book was just one long exposition, and then maybe the next book would have the actual story. No. That wasn't it at all. It's just boring. XD

...yep. Pretty much the same with me. I kept going "hey this is okay. Bet it'll get better!" And... Then it never really did... It just kept going... And going... And going...
