I wasn't sure. lol.<br /><br />I didn't know where else to direct this answer but here's some info on the Book Blogger Hop. Here is the URL to last week's hop (7/30-8/2): http://www.crazy-for-books.com/2010/07/book-blogger-hop-july-30-aug-2-2010.html This Hop is closed but I thought you might like to see how it's run. Every Thursday evening (central time) Jen puts up a Hop post. There are slightly different intrstructions each week so be sure to read them. Then there's a huge list of participant's links. Under the links where it says "This linky list is now closed" will say something like "you're next, add your link here" when the Hop is open. <br /><br />The Hop lasts from Fri-Mon and you can add your link anytime then (or Thursday evenings if she's got the post up early). I hope this helps!Chellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04506296443676360367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083328248557950617.post-62567326957648276192010-08-03T15:07:56.416-07:002010-08-03T15:07:56.416-07:00I would agree.

I like (cringe) at the idea of tall buildings being teeth in the oceans/bays. And I wanted more information about the half-men. Do you think there will be a sequel?Anne@HeadFullofBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069558006454986084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083328248557950617.post-64572803765428156552010-08-03T11:04:25.791-07:002010-08-03T11:04:25.791-07:00thanks for the review! i received an ARC of this a...thanks for the review! i received an ARC of this a couple months ago and blasted through it. it was a really unique and haunting post-apocalyptic book...and kind of disturbingly timely in a way too given all the oil-related chaos that's going on righ tnow. maybe not quiiiite as intensely awesome as the hunger games or patrick ness, but still a refreshing, really well-written book.xtina@moydrookreadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00978859869043341221noreply@blogger.com
