Booknook Friending Meme, Take 2

[quillpunk]

Hello, hello! booknook is (again) tossing its hat in the ring for 3weeks4dreamwidth in the form of a friending meme :D

This is the same meme as last year, as I do not have the brain-space to make a new one, but who knows! You're answers might have changed! You might not have seen the newest entries! You might have completely forgotten to check it out at all, even though you're the admin and you really should have. So let's do this again! <3

Oh, "Sunrise on the Reaping" must be great if you are already re-reading it! I'm excited to get to it, especially since Haymitch is one of my favourite characters in the series.
The books on your to-read list both sound intriguing.

Would you mind getting more into your caveats on "Misery"? I highly enjoyed both the movie and book so I am just interested. If you don't feel like elaborating, no worries.

I'm a rereader by nature but I don't usually turn around and reread a book this quickly. Sunrise on the Reaping might be the best book in the series - it's a toss-up for me between that and The Hunger Games, the first book. (I won't spoil anything but since Haymitch is a very different person than Katniss, you get a very different perspective on things.)

re: Misery, I think it was very well written (never seen the movie) but it is one of the most misogynist things I've ever read and I would probably warn someone of that before just handing it to them.

Oh, I don't recall it being so misogynistic, but then again, it has been many years and I probably haven't only forgotten a lot of it, but also wasn't as aware of these things as I am today. Might have to re-read.
