LIKE, LIKE AND LIKE...
Kate-a little bit slow read, lots of details I didn't want to skip, and the action was great. I like her attitude and style, too. Went ahead and ordered a bunch more of Ilona Andrews' books, and am enjoying the Edge series at the moment. Back to Kate, SOON!

I liked the first Cassie book, and I find the subsequent ones are moving up on the "Can't put it down once I start it" scale. I'm trying to space them out...to not have too long a wait for the one coming out this year.

The Hunger Games...had some trouble wrapping my head around it...still not sure if I actually loved it or hated it (fantastic book, and fantastically disturbing as well). It was a "make-you-think" read, and I'm hoping the next ones will be as good (I'm avoiding reading any/all reviews about them...), though the snippets I've picked up generally seem to lean in that direction...

Next books in all those series are on my TBR for March :D
