I welled up at the end, then smiled through my tears when I realized there was going to be a sequel. Bravo, Jonathan Maberry.

That looks like a whole batch of goodness. I’ll send a bucket for the drool!
The Replacement cover is about the creepiest I’ve seen!
I agree with you, Kristi, but it does get to the point across ; ).
Sorry, it does get the point across!
Must read all of them! Thanks for sharing. BTW, I find it interesting how many of them compare themselves to “Catcher in the Rye” (one of my personal favorites), a book written in 1951. Now that’s staying power.
Oh “Catcher in the Rye” is so fantastic. That must be why I am so drawn to these books. I found that interesting too…I wonder if that’s the new generational trend?
Good morning, Bree:
In re: what kind of reader are you?
I have friends that jump to the final scene, also. Personally, I could never understand how someone can do that, when the magic of reading, for me, is being transported to another place and time. I want to feel the adrenaline, the action, the happiness and the sadness of the MC as she/he conquers her/his quest.
