I hope you keep writing this series. its been a while since I found a series I liked this much. Next to Harry Potter and The Hunger Games this is a fantastic series.

]]> Comment on Daughters of the Sea: Hannah by Kathryn Lasky by Missy http://www.yanewyork.com/2009/09/daughters-of-the-sea-hannah-by-kathryn-lasky/#comment-2494 Missy Tue, 01 Mar 2011 03:42:19 +0000 http://www.yanewyork.com/?p=394#comment-2494 I bought this book a while ago. When I first got it from the book store I rushed into it and finished extremely fast. I have to say thought, I hated it. The author tried to smash two extremely different stories together and in the end left the two storys hanging into an abyss of nothingness. Nevertheless, It would have been an exceptable story as a scullery maid minus the mermaid part or vis versa. Im sorry if this has hurt anyones thought of this book, but everyone is entitled to their own opion, correct? Thanks for listening. Keep reading books! I bought this book a while ago.

It took me a little longer to read Hunger because of school etc. but when I finished it, totally worth spending all my free time! I have Lies sitting in my bedroom but I promised myself that I have to finish the book I am currently reading and for a reward I can read Lies! Seriously like the Cupcake idea, not kidding. And I agree, this series should be a movie. I am a huge Twilight fanatic but this is a different genre and much more intense so this possibly could blow Twilight's box sales! Just sayin'!

I recently had a talk with Daniel Waters, in which he informed me that he believes his publishers don't want any more Generation Dead books. I believe they are wrong, and I know alot of other readers agree with me. Help me get the word out about saving Generation Dead. If you want to help you can e-mail me at, Save_Gen_Dead@yahoo.com.
