3 stars This was a good story overall. I haven’t read anything else in the series, but this prequel was descent. I liked the mashup of medieval and futuristic aspects, a sort of sci-fi and fantasy blend. I have to say the dynamics of Ella’s relationship with Rathan were a bit creepy for my taste,…

4 stars I really enjoy this series. This is a great short story that can be read as a standalone or as part of the series. It’s been awhile since I read the first two novels, but I read it aloud to my boyfriend (who is not familiar with the series) today and we were…

4 stars I really can’t get enough of this series. Susan Kaye Quinn has created a truly fascinating world and this story is a great continuation of it. This can be read as a standalone or as part of the series. The story includes enough detail that someone could go into it without having any…

2 stars I have to say, I was a little disappointed by this story. While the story itself was not bad, it didn’t quite live up to the other stories I have read by Nethermind. This one was very simple and it felt too rushed. I did like the unique main character and the humor…

1 star I got this as a free e-book and, given that I am intrigued by zombies, I thought I’d give it a try. However, this book was really not a good fit for me. So instead of writing a rambling review, I am just going to list (some of) the reasons I did not…

2 stars I received this book through Goodreads in exchange for an honest review. Like many other readers and reviewers, I did not know that this was a prequel to The Book of Speculation. This is completely understandable given that this book is in no way presented as if it were a prequel. It looks…

4 stars This is one of those terrifying books that is eye-opening in the most horrifying ways because it happens all the time. Even though this book was written in the 1970s, it is still sadly very relevant today. Bullying has changed a lot since the book was written, but it is still very widespread….

2 stars I received a free copy of this graphic novel. This is a pretty cute book. I was not really a fan of the pictures since they appear to just be stills from the TV show. This works for the most part for character shots, but a lot of the action gets overlooked this…

5 stars Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I really didn’t think the first Harry Potter book could get more magical, but Jim Kay proved me wrong. This is an amazing edition. The artwork is breath-taking. There are so many wonderful illustrations in this book. While there are quite a few pages that do not have illustrations (or…

4 stars I love this series so much. Great writing. Very funny. I really like the complexity of the characters. As with the first book, I enjoyed this book more than the TV series. I vaguely remember season two of the show, but from what I remember, most of what happened in the book did…
