I may drop this one.
Okay I may have been too hasty on giving up. My wife told me that once they got to the Arena, I'd be hooked and she was right. I can't put the book down now.

Currently Reading:

- A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin (63%)

- The Beekeeper's Apprentice by Laurie R. King (62%)

- The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins (56%)

- Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain (~20%) [on hold]
