Jessica Erdas (463 KP) rated A Dog's Purpose in Books
May 16, 2018
I had heard a little about this book before I saw that it was being made into a movie. The concept seemed cute and was definitely a good read. I was not prepared for the amount of sadness that I would have while reading and every time Cameron described the aging of the dogs, I found myself petting mine and holding her closer. Well written and easily embraces the view point of a dog from beginning to end and back again. I think all dog lovers should read this but have a tissue handy.

I love a good fantasy book and I knew that this was one challenge I wouldn't find difficult. I would devour this fantasy book in a day and enjoy it and love it and find a new series to keep me occupied.
Well, ladies and gentleman, I have learnt my lesson. Never judge a book by its cover or in this case its genre.
Let me give you a bit of background first before I launch into my opinion.

This book was a trilling read.
I loved the whole thing as it's a real keen interest of mine. I've even brought the follow up that book. Only problem is I've had a baby so my time to read it has been very minimal.
I was drawn into the book many years back when I saw it advertised at a trim station.
I will have to reread one day as it was a very good book which I read quite quick but I can't quite remember the time scale.

WOW, this book was really good!! I read it a long time ago, maybe 7 years ago. The characters were great, the story was great, you really felt for the characters. I remember it being a book I couldn't put down. Such a great read. I've read it a couple times and I wouldn't hesitate to check it out again.

This was a quick and entertaining read. The characters felt a little flat to me but I think it is because it is for a younger reader. This would be a good book for kids. I found myself enjoying the story line. The plot is interesting. I might continue on in the series if I am looking for another quick read.

I received a copy of Shadow Frost from Blackstone Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
I'm a sucker for world building and this one was a thrill to read.
I loved the way magic was portrayed in this book but most importantly I adore the characters.
I really really hope there's going to be a sequel to this one, because that cliffhanger!

Excellent pacey read
I picked up this book from a book swap bookshelf on holiday. From the moment I started reading it I could not put it down.
The storyline moved at a good pace and also gave the characters a lot of background and depth.
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a good crime story.

Not having read any of Mary Burtons books before [where have I been living!!!!], I didnt know what to expect but the description sounded like something I would enjoy and I did.
