In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we discuss some rather current events surrounding the unjust destruction of Palestine. To be incredibly clear, free Palestine. See below for resources regarding how you can help. In regards to the book, as per the last FIVE books, the characters are still pretty dumb. John has a little bit of a moral review and backs off from being so aggressive ‘things must happen this way’. However, Six has some things she could work on in this episode.

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage things really start to pick up. Right at the end it turns into a pretty good book, which bodes well for the next one. Justin falls asleep only a little bit, but perks up in the second half. Join us next week to start The Fate of Ten.

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage it is Justin's birthday, again. We have celebrated three different times now. However, in the book, we also get some brain cells coming from a newly introduced character named Adam. Which, honestly, it’s about time. It was getting to be a struggle there with John being the main and most whiny character.

 In this episode of Reading Held Hostage Justin and Blue finish the Fall of Five, which actually gets a little good at the end. We have some good laughs regarding stupid things that most other folks would not find very funny. While it is our Halloween episode, we did not do much because Blue is 8 months pregnant and is very tired. Join us to start the next book, the Revenge of Seven, next week!

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage honestly not much happens. The first chunk of this book is rather boring and Blue cut a lot of the unnecessary stuff out of it. We do meet new characters which can be exciting, but they are not super relevant. We promise it's a good episode though!

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we, Blue, read The Giver, by Lois Lowry. If you didn’t read it in school, like Justin, join us for a discussion of the book after we go through what happened. There are some more serious themes in this book than it might seem, so it’s a good idea to prepare yourself.

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage Justin and Blue start the third book in the I Am Number Four Legacies. And boy oh boy, is it annoying.

Right answers only.

In this episode of Reading Held Hostage we finish The Power of Six in what feels like the longest episode in the whole world. Blue gets, rightfully, mad at John and despite Justin saying that doesn’t make sense, he also ends up mad at John. We introduce new characters, some would say it's almost too many characters. The I Am Number Four series is starting to sound a little bit like Warrior Cats but with Aliens.
