I LOVE the Tomorrow books. I actually have the first of the Ellie Chronicles books because I was so excited to hear the story was going to continue, but then I read a TON of negative feedback from big fans of the series and decided not to read it. I may go back to it sometime, but for now I think I'll let the story end where the main series ended!Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03215797870829907924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-53501183147782219982013-04-11T23:48:56.376-04:002013-04-11T23:48:56.376-04:00I (obviously) do recommend it Susan -- it's a ...I (obviously) do recommend it Susan -- it's a very interesting topic and story.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03215797870829907924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-64450392240337635572013-04-11T23:48:14.412-04:002013-04-11T23:48:14.412-04:00I'm so glad to have found someone else who rem...I'm so glad to have found someone else who remembers that book!

Harry Potter, Twilight, Water for Elephants, The DaVinci Code, and Tomorrow When The War Began would have probably made my list. The Tomorrow series was my all time favorite for a long time. Have you read the Elle Chronicles, like the second series to the Tomorrow ones? I still want to read The Birth House, one day maybe. :)Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03788568691345783808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216081229982312439.post-9814385556288009782013-04-09T15:40:18.829-04:002013-04-09T15:40:18.829-04:00Several of these are on my list, too.

I attempted to read it a few years ago now, but I never quite got in to it. I feel like that may have had something to do with my age, as well as reading types back then. I may have to revisit it. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.my-book-bubble.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/top-ten-tuesday-13.html" rel="nofollow">My TTT</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
