Continuations

I recently finished Joseph Delaney's The Rise of the Huntress and Suzanne Collin's Mockingjay. Both books are part of a series that I've been following for some time now and both author's, once again, did not disappoint me. Although Suzanne Collin's book started out a little slower than her usual fast paced speed, she quickly caught up and had me involved in the world of Katniss, Peeta and Gale. Sometimes when you are into a series and it finishes, the ending is not as you would hope. However, I was rather satisfied with the way the Hunger Games ended. I wonder if I'm the only one that feels that way. What do you think?

I can't imagine how Joseph Delaney will finish the Spook's Apprentice series and I'm not entirely sure I want him to finish. It's bitter sweet when a series ends. The characters become a part of our world and when the series ends, they fade away. Am I just being sentimental today?
