Bogged down

Catching Fire, part 2 of the Hunger Games series, is slow going for me.  The story is starting to get a little more interesting, but I'm not totally into it.  I know that part of the problem is that I'm reading another book, Clash of Kings, at the same time.  My students often get to a point like this in their books.  My advice is usually to start reading another book (Why waste time on a book you don't like?!).  However, I'd really like to be familiar with this series, so I'm going to set a goal to finish it over the holiday break.  Hopefully, it speeds up soon!

    Some of the books I have read before have been like that but ended up having an awsome ending. keep on reading because Catching Fire might be like that.

    Mr. Milbrand you should finish this book and move on to another one more like this! The last Hunger Games book gets Fishy in it! And a new Resolution and more crazy things are happening!!

    Catching Fire gets way better in the end. The last book is really awesome and it is very exciting.

    Mr. Milbrand, I didn't read the second book and only read half of the first. My mom read the whole series, she disagrees with you and thinks the 2 book is the best out of the 3. OH YA! If i were you i wouldnt read the third book, my mom says that its very DAEDLY!!!!

    I think you should read some Judy Blume books. I enjoy them , and actually I am in the middle of Tales Of A Fourth Grade Nothing. My mom recommended this book and it's really good.
