Misguided Angel (Blue Bloods - Book 5) (Blue Bloods Novel)

Review:Taken from my blog [...]

SPOILER ALERT: If you haven't read the first four books in the series, stop now. Go read them. =]

Melissa de la Cruz's Blue Bloods series continues to amaze me. I was skeptical that anything could be as good as the last book but Misguided Angel held up under my scrutiny. It's torture that the next book in the series doesn't come out until October of next year.

Misguided Angel starts off a month after the ending of The Van Alen Legacy. The writi... Read more

Spindle's End
Spindle's End

Review:Once more, Robin McKinley has turned the world of fairytale on its head, and turned out an outstanding novel. McKinley's latest book, Spindle's End, is a re-telling of the Sleeping Beauty tale, but as with her previous fairytale re-inventions she dispenses with the gilt and florets of the Baroque tale and builds her characters out of earth.
The story is less about the "Beauty" -- named Briar Rose -- than it is about how her family and the other people around her react to her situation in the... Read more

Shadows of Self: A Mistborn Novel
Shadows of Self: A Mistborn Novel

Review:Sanderson does it again in a continually twisting, fast-paced story. The character development allows you to feel the characters more than before and one comes to enjoy their very human-ness in interactions with their own mythology... Quite awesome! Read more

Wizard Defiant (Intergalactic Wizard Scout Chronicles Book 1)
Wizard Defiant (Intergalactic Wizard Scout Chronicles Book 1)

Review:Yet another good premise absolutely ruined by the MC. He's whiny, petulant, stupid, arrogant, and stubborn. If the character is someone I wouldn't want to be around in real life, why would I waste my time reading about him?

Also if I don't have to read the word "whatever" for a year, that would be just fine. So annoying. Read more

The Forgotten Engineer (Athena  Lee Chronicles Book 1)
The Forgotten Engineer (Athena Lee Chronicles Book 1)

Review:My apologies to the author in advance - I'm absolutely not writing this to be a troll, but to try and provide a heads up to the other potential readers.
I really thought this book had a great concept that was poorly executed. The character development was rushed, the plot made leaps of faith that didn't always work, technical oversights rubbed me wrong, and the editing was poor to non-existent. I slogged it through to the end, but refuse to waste my time with anything else in the series.
I... Read more

Dragonlove (Dragonfriend Book 2)
Dragonlove (Dragonfriend Book 2)

Review:Meh. Likeable story, killed by a writing style that makes you think some pages fell out of the original on the way to the printer. Some plots have holes, but this feels more like there were things written that got edited out, and then never smoothed over so the end result feels half baked and cobbled together. Read more
