Follow My Book Blog Friday

I decided to take the advice of AlisonCanRead and join a blog hop. Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee's View. I hope I'm doing it right.


Q. The Blogger Apocalypse made me a little emotional. What is the most emotional scene in a book that you have read lately?

The ending of 2 books brought me to tears so far this year - How I Live Now and Mockingjay. Funny, they were kind of similar - damaged teen couples who survived a war and found solace in their love for each other. Well, if anything should make you cry, war should be it, I suppose. I think it's the idea of discovering a tiny bit of comfort and hope in a really bleak situation that moves me.

  3. Thanks so much for following, you guys! Anne, you should definitely try How I Live Now if you loved Mockingjay - it deals with a lot of the same themes, even if the style is completely different.
