It was good. I read it over a year ago so the details are a bit fuzzy, but I loved the premise of a group of what are basically space pilgrims, setting off to a distant planet. There are some interesting twists to the story. I loved the details of the ship and world building.

I enjoyed this book. It was a short sweet read. The only thing I didn't like was it was wordy. Seemed like a lot of words to say one thing but other then that I liked it a lot. It was funny and loved the chemistry and the ending was a perfect way to end :)

This was a good book. It definitely kept me enthralled. I did feel that at times it was a long read. It took me longer than I expected to read and I'm usually a fast reader when I have the time. All in all it was a good fantasy read with very vivid details.

Brilliantly upbeat
This is very clever, I thoroughly enjoyed every choreographed minute of it. Not quite what I expected as I assumed it was just a comedy but the music added a fantastic twist. Loved the tequila bit!

Gave a 9 star because the end got a little silly!

This book reminded me of fairytales that I used to read when I was a little girl. I was addicted to knowing how it was going to end. It was heartwarming and gave me a ton of feels (0 more)

Surprised
I was pleasantly surprised. Although it wouldn't be a mission impossible movie without running, motorcycles and car chases. I may think Tom Cruise is absolutely bonkers, but I must admit he makes a damn good movie.
  
When you finish a book in one day, you know it has left you breathless. I won this book on booklikes, and I wanted to give it a try, since it's here, and I wasn't disappointed at all.

While the first reboot will always have a special place in my heart, I really enjoyed this movie and I cracked up soo many times while watching. It was a great time and I will definitely watch again!

<b><i>Her Crown of Fire is the first book of the Molten Crown series.</i></b>

Rose Evermore is a girl trying to survive high-school. But she suddenly has dreams that can predict the future and she seems to be able to control fire.

Curious about the power she possesses, she finds herself in the fantasy realm of Lotheria with her best friend Tyson. When she arrives, she is welcomed as a fire mage at the academy, while Tyson is forced to hide in order to survive.

With a lot of plot twists and new power discoveries, Rose and Tyson are in trouble and have to find a way back home.

<b><i>I enjoyed this book, and I loved the characters.</i></b>

It is quite difficult for me to find characters I actually feel for in young adult fantasies, but I loved Rose and Tyson. Both characters were full of energy and wisdom. I especially loved the way Tyson developed into a man during his time in Lotheria.

Aside from Rose and Tyson, we also met many side characters which were instantly lovable, such as Laela, Orin and Amisha. They all had something about them that made them special, and I loved every scene that they were in.

I wish that the academy had a more welcoming feeling about it. But given the circumstances, I also loved the mystery and danger that is surrounding it. I loved the the scenes when they talk about their classes and magic, and I loved the runes class. It gave me a Hogwarts vibe.

I enjoyed reading this book, and I cannot wait to read the next book of this series. If you love young adult fantasy, magic, danger and adventure, followed by incredible friendships, you will absolutely love Her Crown of Fire!
