Now that school is fully in swing, you may be reading an assigned book for a class (Frankenstein, e.g.) or be reading something interesting just for the shear pleasure of it. The AI Book Club read the second book in the Hunger Games trilogy, Catching Fire. The next book is To Kill a Mockingbird, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary. Many consider this to be one of the greatest American novels.
Here are some items for your comments:
1. What books have kept you glued and fascinated, racing to the end but yet dreading the end of such a wonderful story with compelling characters? Share your story about a book you couldn't put down.
For me, it was Larry McMurtry's Lonesome Dove. Set in Texas in the late 1800s, this epic novel follows a cattle drive from Texas to Montana. The characters and the events in the novel are unforgettable. From Gus McCrea to to Woodrow Call to Lorena Wood to Blue Duck, the characters are distinct and unorgettable, with lively dialogue and fascinating situations.

After reading the third book in The Hunger Games series, Mockingjay, I felt sympathy for everyone in the story. Petta and Gale are fighting for the love for Katniss. Meanwhile Katniss is fighting to keep Petta, Gale and the rest of her family alive. Due to the result of a rebellion in the districts, Katniss must do everything in her power to convince the rest of the districts and the capitol that she and Petta are soul mates. It is a never ending struggle for survival for everyone in District Twelve.
