Mon, 14 May 2012 22:10:58 +0000https://popculturenerd.com/?p=18087#comment-143095Late to this, but I found Sister so tiresome and so manipulative (great descriptor — sure writers all manipulate to some extent, but a reader shouldn’t feel used afterwards) I’m a little gunshy when it comes to her new book. I’ll have to wait and see on this — if I see a bunch of great reviews, maybe.

Sat, 14 Apr 2012 14:29:46 +0000https://popculturenerd.com/?p=18087#comment-131069Gosh, I guess I’m in the minority here. It’s a good thing I don’t read first pages because if I did, I’d never pick up any of these books. Sorry, just didn’t do it for me. That said, I may have to go back to read the first pages of some of my favorite books to see if I’d feel the same way about them. (I don’t think I’ve ever used so many “I”s before).

Fri, 13 Apr 2012 20:26:31 +0000https://popculturenerd.com/?p=18087#comment-130709Sorry, that was kind of confusing. I was numbering the books 1-3 and putting them in the order I would have read them before and after reading the opening. So originally Rucka would have been at the top.

Fri, 13 Apr 2012 20:13:26 +0000https://popculturenerd.com/?p=18087#comment-130698Does 1 mean you’d read that one first? I’m confused because you said the ALPHA opening doesn’t grab you, but after reading it, you’d move it up to 1 from 3?
Thanks for the vote on making this a regular thing.

Fri, 13 Apr 2012 20:07:26 +0000https://popculturenerd.com/?p=18087#comment-130693I’m interested in where this goes, too. The opening certainly got my attention.

Fri, 13 Apr 2012 20:06:03 +0000https://popculturenerd.com/?p=18087#comment-130692I don’t like being manipulated, either! Unless it’s done so subtly and well that I don’t realize it until it’s over.
I haven’t read SISTER. Did you like that better?

Fri, 13 Apr 2012 18:22:38 +0000https://popculturenerd.com/?p=18087#comment-130645I like them all, but if I had to choose the book I would be most interested in reading, it would have to be ALPHA. A dog wielding a knife? I’m so there.
