I loved this book! Aliens were a nice change from vampires, werewolves, and angels :) The movie was good too, although there were quite a few changes to it. (comes out on dvd May 24th!! !)
I just finished the book. It is so great and Jenna is right. It does provide a nice break from vampires. I am definitely going to watch it. I love Henri (not in a deep desire kind of way)! I'm probably going to race to a bookstore to get The Power of Six.

too late for me, already saw the movie (and the book is usualy not that interesting if you've seen the movie first).
As for aliens, I honestly recommend "The Host" by Stephany Meyer, it was so awsome !!!! and the sequel is so far away :(

I feel the same way. I can't read a book if I've already seen the movie version. I remember when I was younger, I watched Ella Enchanted, and then when I found out it was an actual book I got it immediately, but I found it hard to finish because I already knew the story.
I didn't know the sequel to The Host was ever going to come out. They've been saying for years that it will come out soon. It kind of made me lose hope that the series would ever finish.

Yeah, a little. In an attempt to bring us back on topic, I have question to ask. Do you think they will make a second movie after I am number four? I think a lot of people will be disappointed if they don't because the whole movie was just them setting up the story for the next part. If they don't do a second movie, it kind of makes this movie pointless because it ends at a cliffhanger.
I hope so. I don't want some jerk to be like, "We're shutting this project down because I don't think it will make me enough money."




I agree. That was my frustration, too, after seeing the movie DVD. I got to read the book first so I was really expecting for the movie to get the essential parts of the book. But I enjoyed the series a lot. Hope the 3rd book would tie up the series well. :)

I think they were planning for at least six books in the series but hopefully gets together in the next book.

i get what your saying. it is kind of commerical, but i think it gets more of a voice and has a little more character in the power of six.

I'm only starting the book now and haven't gotten that far yet. I'm glad we're reading it this month because I want to read it before I watch the movie. Already I can see some similarities between the movie and the book, but that's to be expected. From the beginning you can tell it's going to be a great dramatic book. If you haven't gotten the book yet, I really recommend that you do.
