Those are impressive stats. I always aspire to read more, but I think watching too much tv gets in my way lol. I need to change that. I read Follow Me Back but skipped the ending because I had read reviews warning about that (I did glance at it though so I have a general idea of what happened). It's definitely annoying, but I think I'm going to read the sequel anyway just to see how it all turns out.

Thanks :-) I don't watch much TV and I read FAST! Both help me get my stats up. They're not nearly as high as 5-10 years ago though -- taking up knitting has seriously cut into my reading time! :-P

My biggest problem with the ending was that I thought it was supposed to be a stand-alone novel. Had I known it was the first in a series, I probably wouldn't have minded as much. So if you're going to read the sequel, I'd probably go ahead and read the ending as well - because as a lead-up to a sequel it's actually quite compelling.
