Everything

I’m usually a bit hesitant to stray from my favorite authors and this time was no different. However, I’m soo glad I did! You want action, mystery, romance, betrayal? It’s all here. The best part is that it’s all here without the usual angsty cliches normally found in books that are listed as YA. I’m not going to recap the book, you can read the cover yourself. Read the book, read the series, you won’t regret it!!

Overall not a bad book - I really enjoyed listening to it over reading - I like the back stories now of those that are at the home, etc. - The twins were actually some of my favourite children in book 1 so getting to know them and their past and their door was actually pretty amazing - I kept getting confused between Jack/Jill I won't lie - and unexpected romance of sorts happened too and I am living - can't wait to continue the series

SSSPIDERS, SSSNAKES AND SSSECRETS

Harry Potter, my one true love!

It feels good reading the series again. It reminds me of being in secondary school, holing up in the library at lunchtime and devouring as many books as I could.

Honestly, though, the chamber of secrets was always my least favourite book but also my least favourite movie as well.

But, on rereading this book I absolutely loved it!

Well, I just read this 2nd book in this poetry series in 32 minutes. I thought it was better, until the last bit (I have zero interest in politics, and I'm choosing to withhold my true opinion about that section). The format was a little better. More power to the author for making money off of this stuff. Needless to say, I will never pick up another modern poetry book that doesn't have capitalization of the author's name on the front.

This is the 2nd book in the Kyndred Series and one that I was looking forward to, as I liked Rowan from her appearance in Shadowlight.

Did it live up to expectations? Mostly, is the honest answer.

These books are paranormal with a twist, so everything that I enjoy. However, they can be so convoluted and confusing that it can detract from the story (for me).

More characters are introduced in this book so keep your head and remember who is who!

Firstly, this was the second time I have read this book, having read it during my childhood. I decided to re-read it in honor of the new movie. I find myself liking this story mostly out of nostalgia. It is a fun adventure and I enjoy the characters and scientific theme. It is a short fun book well worth a read. One of these days I will get around to reading the rest of the books in the series.

This is the third book in this series. I read the all three books in a matter of days after watching the movie. I really liked this story. I felt that it was a great ending for the story and character arcs and also felt that the theme of going away to college and what that means for you and your relationships is important. I liked the first book best, then this was my second favorite, but all are good! Go read them!
