Gregor and the Curse of the Warmbloods (Underland Chronicles, #3), Suzanne CollinsGregor and the Curse of the Warmbloods is an epic fantasy children's novel by Suzanne Collins. It is the third book in The Underland Chronicles, and was first published by Scholastic in 2005. The novel takes place a few months after the events of the preceding book, in the same subterranean world known as the Underland. In this installment, the young protagonist Gregor is once again recruited by the Underland'sI read this book for the Devour your TBR book club.What I liked about this book:The characters, especially Boots and TempThe writingThe story and plotThe twistsThe adventure and actionWhat I didn't like:Another prophecyOne certain thing that felt unbelievableThe repetition from the first book (synopsis sort of)

Firstly I know that I have never been the target audience for this series but did enjoy the first two books, using them as fluff reads, between books with more substance. However this will be the last book I will read of the series. The writing is too formulated and after the first book nothing new was ever really brought into the story.
There's a bit of a formula with the Gregor books.1. Gregor has a dull home life and the beginning has to remind you of this. His family has real-life problems with money, food, and everything else.2. For some stupid reason, Gregor finds himself in the Underland again along with his useless 2-year-old sister.3. Some kind of issue goes down with the humans in the Underland.4. Gregor, the chosen one, must go on a quest in order to resolve the issue. He battles random creatures and his sister must
