Loved it!

Having not read the first two books I wasn't sure what to expect. Some of the words threw me a touch but that's what quality fiction can do to you.

I really like Jack, he's sweet, funny and fiercely loyal and protective of the people he cares about......which is good going for a dead guy travelling in the datasphere!

A decent afternoon read that's well worth the timeout from the hectic real world.
    I would highly recommend reading the preceding books though, as for sure they'll be a veritable wealth of brilliantness waiting to be discovered.

Emma Thompson
Watched today another made for Netflix in two weeks as I've never seen the orignal matilda movie but knew enough about it thru Roald dahls books which I've read enough of his books the film I will start off with emma Thompsons role as miss trunchball she is scary as hell I've seen some nasty characters in movies before but emma pulls it off brilliantly and then there's alisha weir as matilda star in the making turn form her the songs are good the rest of the child are also good one to take your kids too see

This is a light-hearted story about magic with a side interest of romance. The story and relationships in the book flow very naturally but don't expect everything to be straightforward! There are some twists and turns in this book, some that are explained and some that aren't. This book drew me in from the start and the time passed very quickly whilst I was reading it. Very enjoyable both as Young Adult and as a Paranormal. Further books in this series are now on my wish list.

If I could rate it higher than 10, I would!
I loved everything about this book: the style, the characters - everything. I found it gripping, I didn't want to put it down, but you know, real life. This is definitely one of my favourite books this year. I just want to know what happens next!
  
A good little pocket book with some interesting information and guidance on how to try and beat negative thoughts that seem to take over your life. For more in-depth help websites and other books are listed as a tiny book like this just about scrapes the surface on changing your perspective on life.

Book Favorite

"This might be the best book I know of that describes restaurant culture. In general I am a very big fan of George Orwell, I could have selected half of the books on this list to be authored by him. But I particularly enjoy this one because it tells me something about my industry."
