Iniya wrote: "@Manju how many books in that series ??"

I don't want to scare you but let me tell you the truth.

Book #15 is coming out on May 28. & According to Wikipedia there will be five more books in that series. & Mr Butcher is also planning to write a trilogy in the same world with Harry Dresden.

@Iniya: How was Divergent?

@manju 20 books :-o:-o:-o:-o *faints* divergent was very interesting Manju... Couldn't keep it down. :-):-):-)

Iniya wrote: "@manju 20 books :-o:-o:-o:-o *faints* divergent was very interesting Manju... Couldn't keep it down. :-):-):-)"

hahahahaha..........but once you start that series you can't get enough of Harry:D:D:D

& it is also on your to-read shelf when are you going to start it?? :P:P

*revives Ini* *thinks this seems to be happening too often* *takes Ini to doctor* *doctor gives Ini an anti fainting injection/immunisation* *Ini wont faint now* :P :P

I think every Dystopian book tries to copy Hunger Games...

@sri lols...:-D:-D:-D:-D

@manju now that u have told there r 6 more books to be released, i ll think:-):-):-) can't wait for the book to be released :-):-):-) and already too many books to be read,, so no new books as of now..!!

Manju wrote: "I think every Dystopian book tries to copy Hunger Games..."

I guess its because Hunger Games was a trendsetter in this genre, at least in the YA category...

this means you're going to wait another eight years before you start Dresden Files. He release one book per year.

thats not fair :(:(

but after reading Hunger Games, I felt every trilogy has almost same plot and story so downright predictable. :/:/

Every girl tries to copy Katniss. Have you read Hunger Games?

No.. planning to read it.. some time soon.. just haven't gotten around to it :) :)

One book a year only?? *checks to see if I have those many years to complete the series* :P :P

@manju one book per year..:-(:-(:-(:-( Then i can't wait for that long.. Will start before that..:P:P:P

LOL :D :D ROFL... can't think of anything to say to that... *blushing now* *totally embarrassed* :D :D :D

Srividya wrote: "One book a year only?? *checks to see if I have those many years to complete the series* :P :P"

yes, atleast he gives his fans one book per year on average. think of George Martin, Rothfuss and Lynch fans.

these authors release one book in almost four years on average.

& that reminds me when are you starting ASOIAF?
