Review: Monsters of Men

Monsters of Men by Patrick Ness

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I ordered this one online. When I bought the first, the bookstore didn't have the second, but did have the UK version of the third. Now I'm a little disappointed that I didn't pick up the third book before. Needless to say, the Chaos Walking trilogy is probably my favorite young adult trilogy right now. I'm so excited for the release of  A Monster Calls in September. There's something so vivid about Patrick Ness's writing that makes me want to read even more.

The Knife of Never Letting Go

Curiosity got the best of me when I picked up this one. I was out at Half-Price Books in Indianapolis, and the dust jacket, which is clear plastic, caught my eye. I picked it up, read a little and was intrigued. When I checked on Goodreads, I saw that a number of my friends already read it and loved it. When I finished this novel I was upset because I could not immediately start the next book. You think the cliffhangers at the end of the Hunger Games books were intense? They have nothing on the cliffhanger from the first book in the Chaos Walking trilogy.

Here's the book talk.
