I haven't read Genome yet. I read the sample but I got sidetracked onto another book and then work started calling my name.

Let me know when you get to it. I'd like to hear how you like it. I'm reading a different book at the moment myself.

Netwit. I downloaded Night Watch the other evening and I just can't get into it. I am on chapter seven and I keep hoping it gets better but I don't think it's going to. I hate to give up on a book but this is just not my cup of tea I suppose.

The sixth and final installment of the series is set to be released at the end of the month. It's available for pre-order on Amazon right now:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0..._lm#nav-subnav

I have been re-reading the series in anticipation and can't wait to get my hands on it.

Amber, do you have an Amazon Prime account? If so or if even not, you should seriously consider a Kindle. There are lots of ways to get free books using a Kindle. Private message me for more information.

Well, I re-read the entire series since I enjoy them so much, and I just finished The Sixth Watch, and I have to say I was surprised by the ending! If you've finished it netwit, let me know what you thought.

I did finish it a while back and I thought I had posted my thoughts about it back then but obviously that post somehow never made it from my head to here. If I remember correctly, I thought that the middle dragged a bit, as though maybe the writer had written beyond the natural end of the series. And then it picked up for me and if I remember correctly, the ending was a surprise. I've read quite a few books since and right now my memory isn't the best.

I think he's grown tired of writing in Anton's world, so I agree that the middle was a bit stale. He kind of forced some travel on Anton, but there wasn't the usually beer and pub discussions of previous books. I thought those conversations in his head were kind of interesting, so this book felt rushed in that way.
