Missing students and an unexpected skull at a dig sight kick off this archaeology themed mystery series. The characters are good, but there were too many plot threads early on and it felt like it took a while to really come together.

Callie investigates the supposed accident that killed her husband. What part did her new boyfriend play in it? This is an amazing series climax with the most personal plot yet for the characters we love and plenty of twists and turns.

I loved this book in some ways, but I hated the ending, which didn't wrap up most of the plot threads. I also found the constant rehashing of prior events to be tiresome. Let's be honest: nobody is going to be able to follow this series by starting anywhere but at the beginning, and those who do already know all that stuff!

Percy and his friends must travel through the ever changing labyrinth of Daedalus to try to save their camp. The action and use of Greek myth was still fun, but it felt very formulaic after reading the first three in the series.

I really liked this graphic novel collection, and was completely bummed when I found out that Marvel cancelled the series after Volume 3. The art is so cute and plucky. Patsy goes from unemployed to opening up a temp agency for people with super powers. She's got a lot of issue and baggage, but she gets through it. Overall, a fun book.

A super sexy read that I enjoyed, I never read any of the previous books in the series and it didn't detract from the story. Only thing I would say is 'the bad guy' in the book was a bit of a wash out and ended up being a minor irritation. I thought he would have been more of a problem to Dena.

It holds your attention and uses all the Wonderland characters beautifully. (0 more)
About the only thing bad is that they could combine books to make them longer. (0 more)

I really like this series, I just started book 8 today and can barely put it down. It blends all the characters from Wonderland into the real world beautifully. I highly recommend it.

OMG, I absolutely LOVED this book! Blake's been one of my fave characters for this series since I started it, and I was so excited to get into his backstory. And believe me, I was NOT disappointed! Definitely check this out if you're any type of fan of The Manhattanites!

5 stars (because they wouldn't let me give any more)

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.

Beautiful and heartbreaking.. God, I LOVE this series!! Enjoyed taking my time with this book, savoring every precious moment and thought in his head as well as revisiting this incredible story. Ive always loved Kiera, feeling so much like her, with her constant insecurities and nervousness. Reliving it all again thought Kellan's POV was heart wrenching... but I loved every moment ;-)
