A new vampire-witch novel

Must I say - I love when there is a twist in vampire stories. Why should the guy always be the vampire, not the girl? So, basically Crave pulled me for most of that reason - Savannah is a vampire going through her, er, vampire puberty and there is Tristan,...

Fabulous Finish

Oh my, the Watersong series has ended and as much as it hurts me to say goodbye to Gemma, Harper, Marcy, Daniel and Alex, I loved this book. It had all the things a good supernatural YA book needs - romance, action, a bitchy villain, lots of angst and a...

Exciting sequel - more deadly than earlier

Crown of Midnight, the sequel to Throne of Glass, picks up right up right after the first, with Celaena now the King’s Champion, which basically means she is the King’s private assassin expected to carry out every command with no question. She is as deadly and lethal as ever, and...

Exquisitely written

The Sweetest Dark is a fantasy dragon story set during the First World War – a story of Eleanore, an orphan who has been accepted into a snooty private school, a girl who has been listening to song from stones and metals since she was young, a woman who wants...

Engaging

Grasping at Eternity was a difficult but engaging read. The thing with the book is, so many things happen that you can't leave the book - I just had to finish it in one go. Though I found the book a bit difficult to follow at the start, with all...

Too rushed for my liking

Pierce is now the Queen of the Underworld and as such, helps out in the daily duties such a job entails. In the start of the book, we meet Pierce managing the ‘good people’ line – a tough gig considering most of the souls don’t take her seriously. That of...

Who needs princes?

The School for Good and Evil is filled with adventure and thrills. A wonderful fantasy read for the YA genre. It blends all the fairy tales we've ever known into one magical tale. The story begins with two friends in a small village of Gavaldon - the...

Better than the prequel series

I don't know why I put off reading this series for so long. I had finished with Percy Jackson around a year back and while I liked that series, I didn't like 'love it'. Sure, the books were good, there is even a movie franchisee now, but I was still...

A new vampire read

Bloodspell is a bit of freshness in the vampire-dominated paranormal book world. It was refreshing to find a book where the vampire wasn’t the top of the food pyramid. The book focuses on witches and vampires as being age-old enemies so it had a bit of Twilight-meets-Romeo and Juliet feel...

Good fantasy

World-building in the book is good. The pace, however, is pretty slow. Also, the story repeatedly goes back and forth on the time and it gets confusing whether Syl is talking about the present or the past

Best time travel book

Julie Cross is a genius, that's all! I loved Tempest and Vortex went one step ahead - I want to read it all over again - like right now. Oh and I am desperate for the third book already; it doesn't even have a name right now.

Amazing sci-fi

This book totally deserves a 5 star rating. I am not much into sci-fi and i picked up this book thinking it was a standalone story. I have to say - it totatlly blew me away. After the Pittacus Lore series, I think this is my favourite sci-fi book....

Starting to dislike the protagonist

I really wanted to give this a 4, but the main characters just plain annoyed me in the book. America is being all - who to choose, Aspen or Maxon? Aspen is being stringed along and so are the other Selection girls. Maxon feels it okay to make out with...
