welovetoread Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 a bit off topic, but....I have a teen that is reading the Lunar Chronicles. After the Scarlett book, the next book is not due out until Feb. Do any of you have kids that like this series? If so, what other books have they enjoyed? I want to keep this non reader reading!!!!!

6packofun Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Okay, so I took your advice 6packofun. I put The Beautiful Mystery aside but since I'm already in the mood for Inspector Gamache, I downloaded A Fatal Grace. I started it tonight while ds was at the fair with friends from our hs teen group. I think that's a good move. Beautiful Mystery is also somewhat different from the others, too. More thoughtful and serious in some ways as Gamache deals with previous circumstances! Let me know how you like the series! I'm trying to acquire each book from library book sales. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumto2 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I read the first Dexter book and enjoyed it. It seemed to match the tv show pretty closely. Do you watch the show and do they continue to be quite similar? Today I finished Dexter by Design by Jeff Lindsay. I enjoyed it much better than the previous Dexter book.
