Series Re Read: #44 The Unexpected

[buffyangellvr23.livejournal.com]

The Animorphs have been split up before. And they've had to fight battles without one another. But, this time is very different. Not only is Cassie totally alone, she's managed to find herself in Australia. In the rural Outback. The other Animorphs and Ax don't even know she's there.

Cassie doesn't have any idea where she's going, or if she can even survive the rugged terrain. But she does know she has to get to a town or village and contact her family and friends. Because she's realized that there's someone else who is also new to the Outback.

Visser Three.

I fully expect a lot of ranting about this one based on previous comments. I'm extremely curious. Could whoever it was that posted on this book before elaborate on what wrong stereotypes were promoted? I don't know that much about the people, and am interested to learn.

I'm not a big fan of solo books, which probably makes it good that this is the only totally solo one that I can remember.

I remember complaints about Cassie's bad decisions and bad thinking. How could a plot like this have been better executed so as to be tolerable at least? The idea of going to another country is cool, but obviously from what you all have said, they didn't do a good job.

Prompt...a long way from home

Hopefully next week will be a lot better. The Revelation is one of my favorites in the series. And a huge turning point in the series besides.

*digs bunker and prepares for lots of complaints about this one*

Extra books offer

[buffyangellvr23.livejournal.com]

I now have extra copies of a few books

The Invasion 1
The Alien 8
The Exposed
The Solution
The Pretender
The Suspicion
Last minute Edit: I also have The Departure, which is 18 I think.

Large print of The Conspiracy

I can't remember all the numbers, sorry. I know some people don't like library copies so if nothing else I'll switch and keep those copies while sending the non-library ones. They are all in good shape though. I'm not going to ask money for them because I'm sick of annoying family members yelling at me for sending for stuff in the first place...it's one reason I'll be soooo glad to get my own place. I know they think they're guarding against unsavory internet types but it gets annoying after a while.

Ack I don't know what to do about the two copies of The Alien. I'm getting attached to mine with the bookmarks still in it. I don't know if I should punch them out or find someone who wants a library copy...lol

Anyway, if anyone's interested, let me know. I just hate to see good books thrown out. I'll pass them to a thrift store as a last resort, maybe someone will buy them.

Oh, and any of our Chicago 'burbs area members might want to check Exchange a Book in Burnham pretty soon, there may still be a few copies of early books around and they're closing the end of April *sniff*
