{Reaction} The Scorch Trials (The Maze Runner 2) Movie Trailer

Have you seen The Maze Runner? My kids (12 & 14) and I went to see it and we all really liked it (even though I didn't really love the book). Reagan immediately grabbed the books and devoured them. Bransen is taking a little longer (no surprise since Reagan is a reading BEAST). Anyway, they both really like the books. Like, an obnoxious amount. So, I couldn't wait to show them the trailer for The Scorch Trials this morning.

Their reactions?

Reagan: That. No. That is not even what happens at all!! Why are they doing this?

Bransen: What? Are you kidding? I'm not seeing this movie.

My reaction to their reactions?

Welcome to book-to-movie life.

Did you watch the trailer? Have you read the books? What do you think? I'm actually really excited for this movie. I've only read book one, so I'm anxious to see what happens next. After hearing Reagan cry after book three, though, maybe I should skip that movie. Haha.

BONUS:

^This is James Dashner with Reagan. He asked her who her favorite author was and told her she better not say Rick Riordan. *chuckles* She said she'd tell him he was her favorite if he promised to stop killing off her favorite characters. BAHAHA!

And this is James Dashner when I told him Austin hadn't read The Maze Runner yet . . .

I love this guy!

Finally, My Thoughts on Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins Audio So, I was going through my old posts, looking for something to post today, and came across this. I guess I never posted it, because I was just so angry and disappointed. Plus, I think I had talked so much about it, that I was sick of talking about it. And also, I feel like there were so many things that bothered me that I couldn't get it all down. But, I thought it might be fun to post this, and see if anyone is interested in it. So, here are my bitter and resentful thoughts on Mockingjay! :P 8-30-2010 *spoilers galore* After reading Mockingjay all day on Tuesday, I left Wednesday morning to go on vacation for my anniversary. All I could think about was Mockingjay. You might think that's a good sign, like it was so well done that I couldn't forget about it. But, for me, it wasn't. I was so disappointed in this book. Honestly, if I hadn't loved the first two books so much, I pr...
