It's not too hard to go back start over or to figure out what's going on in the story, in most cases, and sometimes you just have to jump in somewhere or you just don't realize that the book you're reading a the third in the series.<br />Not a big deal. I think that if I found a book series that sounded incredibly lame for eight books, but the ninth book sounded awesome/fantastic/amazing, I'd skip the lame eight and read the ninth.Zombie Girrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550287890162111872noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3062423488127791756.post-84424545790604043512010-11-12T16:56:38.771-06:002010-11-12T16:56:38.771-06:00Just stopping by to share some Friday blog love!
