Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Midnight Frost (Mythos Academy, #5) in Books

Sep 6, 2019

This one was different from the rest: there was no major Reaper attack in the library. Yes, there was a little incident but it was with the journey to Denver that we had our run in with the Reapers and Gwen and friends kicked their arses (as usual).

I can't help wondering if book 6 is the last book in the series or not? On to it soon, anyway.

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated A to Z (Coda Books, #2) in Books

Sep 6, 2019

I didn't like this as much as the first, hence the three star.

It was a cute story with some really sweet moments throughout.

Angelo was pretty cool, if a little troubled. Zach was just plain blind for half the book. Tom was a d*ck. And the reappearance of Jared and Matt from the first book was pretty awesome.

I will be reading more of the series.

Do these people read the books

When it comes to the books. I love this series till Alligent. First book amazing premise, Second Book good but predictable Third well don't talk about it rushed and fractured and tried to hard to be clever and ended up failing. However this is a film review

Divergent movie first half was close to book second half changed for Hollywood glam
Insurgent film Just went for Hollywood glam and through a lot of the plot out the window if you want a action movie don't give it the same name as a book if your not going to keep the premise.

I've been wanting to read this book since it came out, and finally got a chance to borrow it from the library. Overall, it was a well-formed, quick-paced book, I dig sci-fi stories that are completely feasible.
Side note: A few days after I finished this book, a major telecom company in the US went down, and it reminded me of the fact that when the robots take over in this book, they knocked out all telecom. It totally freaked me out.
While I did enjoy this book, I'm not so sure if I'll continue the series. I don't feel like anything else needs to be added to the story.

Very short story (0 more)

This book was very short - I read it in 1 day.
I prefer books to be a bit longer - it wasn't really long to even get into.
It's a crime genre which I love but it was too short to real be much of a crime book that I would normally read.
Giving a review on a short story is not easy as I didn't see the characters grow and story didn't really go anywhere.
I wouldn't read the second book in series.
I would recommend to someone who losses interest quickly or doesn't like reading a long book.
I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers Only.

This was most definitely a more cohesive book than the first book. This was mainly due to this book not having to say up as much as the first one did. There was far more of a linear storyline, and certainly moved away from the Sharpe-esqe series I mentioned it resonating with in the review for the previous book.

One thing I must say is, don't go into this book if you are faint of heart. You might survive the first 99%, but the last 1% might send you into therapy! It's certainly will change your relationship to the main character, Vespasian. Though the ending horrifies me, I'm intrigued enough to continue at my own risk.
