Review:I found this book well written and liked the concept very well. The comparison and contrast with the Schooled in Magic series (by the same author) leaves this as a world I would like to read about more! Read more

Review:**SPOILER**

I really enjoyed this book. It really did seem like genuine high school students and not just another poorly written version of someone's perception of high school students.

I enjoyed the whole ghost killer thing it wasn't your usual vampire/zombie thing which is refreshing.

I did find the whole "he falls in love with a ghost" thing a little weird but it was well executed so it was a good weird.

The voodoo man thing could have been a little better but most... Read more

Review:I wish they'd allow for partial stars because although I wouldn't say it's a 5 star, it's definitely more than a 4, in my opinion.

Inspiring, emotional, and with the occasional remark/event that had you giving a little laugh out loud.

I did find some parts of the book rushed and felt that a longer scene would have really added to the story, but overall, I'd recommend this to anyone as a good heartfelt read. Read more

Review:The Archived by Victoria Schwab

5 out of 5 gnomes

The Archived gives History a whole new meaning. This is such an intriguing book with its plentiful flashbacks, insight into a grieving family, and a fantastical secret world. Mackenzie Bishop’s character is truly complex and will have you rooting for her to succeed.

This book also has a wholly unique explanation for what happens/where people go when they die. As the tag line of the book states, “Imagine a place where the d... Read more

Review:Rise of the Six flows so smoothly and captured my interest so intensely that I didn't want to put it down. Lots of action and I like how it has a bit of sci-first built in. Kept me trying to guess what was going to happen next. The author did a great job of keeping me interested and wanting more! Read more

Review:My sister recommended these books, mainly because the first book was on special price. I ended up purchasing the whole series- which was for a great price. So, for the price, it is a good read. I was looking to satisfy my reading "tooth" after finishing Harry Potter and Alchemyst series. Books were good enough to keep me going, but not something that I would re-read. I will definitely have my children these series though! Read more

Review:My3yr6mth grandson had a problem making the switch from 'monster' to the father. The 'change' was too abrupt for him on the first reading. I'm not so sure that the monster/father should be lured into the room by cookies..and then swing his son around right before bedtime...but there is charm in the illustrations and the message to make bedtime a happy event is lovely..

Review:The book is schizophrenic. The character development can't decide if the audience is 5 yrs old or 30. I would assume it was written by an someone who forgot how to tell stories to little kids. It might be good for a 9 year old who could read it for their self, except that it is too long. Read more
