Prince of Wolves is the start of a thrilling, gripping series. As the start of the three girls adventure into the supernatural world, there is always something happening, be it devastating or hilarious.

It's definitely a series that I would love to see as films or a TV series.

These book are a definite must read for all lovers of Werewolves and the Supernatural.

Cute cozy mystery that will make you smile!
This book was absolutely delightful! Not just for fans of cozy mysteries, this seems like it would appeal to all sorts of mystery lovers. I am absolutely in love with Flavia de Luce, a precocious 11-year-old with a penchant for poisons. I laughed so much reading this, and can't wait to read more of her adventures!

Book Favorite

"An extraordinary memoir by an extraordinary woman. Each chapter is composed to the men (real and imagined) in her life who feel at once brilliantly mythical, and painfully earthbound. There are letters to former lovers, briefly encountered heroes, fictional paramours, and family members, and like with Lena Dunham’s book, I’ll shuffle through and reread to laugh and weep as if it were at first time."

Cruel pranks, eye rolling quotes, & unlikable characters
I read this book as part of the Read Me Romance Podcast.

Well, this book probably is going to have the title of the worst book I read in 2019. I tend to enjoy the enemies to lovers trope in the romance genre because it usually means that there is a lot of banter between the characters. Banter is my weakness, & I LOVE when character banter and flirt. Unfortunately, this book was not something I could get behind. I'm honestly surprised I finished it and didn't DNF it.

The characters were not likable. Both of them were vindictive & rude to each other. There was nothing "cute" about their actions.

If you like cruel pranks, eye-rolling quotes, and unlikeable characters, then this book is for you.

This book....this book is just fantastically written. I had no idea what it was about or hadn't heard anything about it before I picked it up because of the cover. Am I so glad that I did.
Enemies to lovers, mythology, and bloody battles are just some of the amazing things you will find in these pages. The best part? It doesn't leave you with a gigantic cliffhanger. Basically if you enjoy anything I listed above. ^^^ you will love this book. The writing and flow mash with a plot that is so wonderfully written you won't feel bored.
One of the best 2018 books I have read. Highly recommend!

Sweet and Heartwarming
This book is never going to win any literary prizes. However if you'e after a heartwarming laugh out loud tale, then this is definitely the book to come to. John Grogan does well to get you engaged in not only the life of his dog Marley, but also of himself and the rest of his family. Which is good, as a tale solely about canine capers might soon lose it's appeal. Through John's depiction of Marley you can't help but find him and his exploits adorable, albeit saying a silent prayer that you don't own a dog like him.

For animal lovers alike this is a great read. For dog lovers and owners, this is a must read as I'm sure everyone can identify with some of these canine behaviours. My parents have a silly Dalmatian, but even she isn't a patch on Marley and it's so good to read a book that makes you giggle at all the doggy traits you recognise. I dare you not to have shed a tear by the end either.
  
Finally found my notebook that contained this review!!

I must say that I experienced many emotions while reading this book. I laughed and I cried and I often reminisced about my fur baby that passed a couple of years ago as he was my love, my companion, and friend. I think that animal lovers will certainly enjoy reading about the adventures contained within this book.

A historical fiction lovers dream. This book is all about getting history right and teaching you not just the well known facts but also the smaller facts that lead to Washington's escape. A picture is painted of how each decision lead to the next and how the Maryland 400 really helped save the day.

Perfect for all ages of historical fiction. This book really gives a truer view while teaching facts that not many may know. I learned things I never knew and am excited to have friends of history read this as well.
