Cece's latest biography subject is Agatha Christie. But instead of beefing up the section on Agatha's real life disappearance, she's investigating the mysterious death of someone at the Agatha themed community Christietown. Slow at times as the book follows other things in Cece's life, but a fun addition to the series.

Hmm

I'd forgotten a lot of the back story with this series but I did remember Rohan and Nava and their relationship. I loved them as a couple and this one really cemented them together after the events of the last book.

This has ended on a bit of a cliff hanger with lots of possible things happening as it ended, so I really need book 6 when it's released!

Another great story

With more of the will Tilly and Heller FINALLY get together, only to end up disappointed when they only end up fooling around a little. Add in a possible girlfriend for Heller and I wasn't too happy. But reading more of Tilly's highs and lows as a member of Heller's security makes this book and series so fun.

Will be buying book 4 first thing in the morning.

I read the second installment to this series a lot faster than I read the first one. Although there seemed to be less happening in this book, it was nice to see the character development, and to meet entirely new characters.
I still love the relationship between Ethan and Lena, and cant wait to see what happens in the third book. Hopefully I can add it to my christmas wishlist.

This one was different from the rest: there was no major Reaper attack in the library. Yes, there was a little incident but it was with the journey to Denver that we had our run in with the Reapers and Gwen and friends kicked their arses (as usual).

I can't help wondering if book 6 is the last book in the series or not? On to it soon, anyway.

I didn't like this as much as the first, hence the three star.

It was a cute story with some really sweet moments throughout.

Angelo was pretty cool, if a little troubled. Zach was just plain blind for half the book. Tom was a d*ck. And the reappearance of Jared and Matt from the first book was pretty awesome.

I will be reading more of the series.

Do these people read the books
When it comes to the books. I love this series till Alligent. First book amazing premise, Second Book good but predictable Third well don't talk about it rushed and fractured and tried to hard to be clever and ended up failing. However this is a film review

Divergent movie first half was close to book second half changed for Hollywood glam
Insurgent film Just went for Hollywood glam and through a lot of the plot out the window if you want a action movie don't give it the same name as a book if your not going to keep the premise.

I've been wanting to read this book since it came out, and finally got a chance to borrow it from the library. Overall, it was a well-formed, quick-paced book, I dig sci-fi stories that are completely feasible.
Side note: A few days after I finished this book, a major telecom company in the US went down, and it reminded me of the fact that when the robots take over in this book, they knocked out all telecom. It totally freaked me out.
While I did enjoy this book, I'm not so sure if I'll continue the series. I don't feel like anything else needs to be added to the story.
