"She’s the children’s writer with whom I most identify. She said, ‘By some lucky chance, I remember exactly how I felt and thought at 11.’ That struck a chord with me. The Story of the Treasure Seekers was a breakthrough children’s book. Oswald is such a very real narrator, at a time when most people were writing morality plays for children."

I wish there half-star ratings on these things. I really enjoyed Cain's and Charlie's story. However, so far in the series, it isn't my favorite. If I could, I'd rate this a 4 star while Ten Tiny Breaths and One Tiny Lie would be rated a 4.5. Alas, we can only give a full star, so I've rated it a 3.

A simple yet clever book to read to children. They will love the illustrations, I know I did, as the story unfolds about a mother and her cubs. A strong message is put in a way that the children will enjoy and remember, rather than just being scared.

A fun little book, it reminds me of some of the adventure books I read as a child where you chose what happens next. I would like to see more choices and a bit more steamy sexyness but all in all a good book to pass a spare hour.

A bit silly
I will be honest I was dissapointed. There was a lot of darkness missing and a lot of over the top silliness. To be this murderous and crazy you need a dark and twisted mind. Let's explore that a little bit.

WALL SEX. FINALLY.
Contains spoilers, click to show
As you can see from my title, I was most excited about the wall sex we've been promised for two books. However, there were other things in this book that I loved so, so much.

First of all - RHYSIE!!! They used that name!! Canonically!! My bb High Lord was amazing as always. And the way Maas explained what Feyre was going through was positively poetic at times. It was so good.

Bryaxis??? Is still lost?? And if you don't find that hilarious, you are incredibly disappointing.

And my Illyrian Babies!! These are 500-year-old fae males, and they have annual snowball fights. If you don't think that's the most adorable thing ever, then you are also incredibly disappointing. The bois were a big mood throughout the entire book, and I loved it so, so, so much.

My sweetheart Mor deserves none of this shit btw. THREE SPIKES. EXCUSE MOI?? This isn't allowed; I almost cried.

Nesta's PTSD was well-written, as well as the tension between her and Cass. Also, the I don't want Cassian to know I'm reading Smut face is also my favorite face.

And, of course, smut. It was well-written, as usual, but I feel it could have been better. And longer.

Thank you for listening to me freak out about my children like there's no tomorrow.
PS I might add more in the comments, so stay tuned.

It was a great book, some connections I couldn't make...but a page turner for sure.
  
Not a bad book. A lot of tree nuts (which I cannot have)...but otherwise, ok.
