A great YA novel
I read this over 10 years ago, remember enjoying it but for some reason never bothered with the other books in the trilogy. So I decided to try again.

This is a fantastic first novel in the trilogy, and a great fantasy story. I love the idea of people having daemons, and the plight of Lyra is intriguing and full of twists and turns. There are some great characters, all well developed and I really found myself caring for some and hating others, as intended. Pullman id a fantastic writer. My only criticisms would be the heavy emphasis on religion, and that the plot does seem a little bit over the top at times. Still can't wait to read the rest!

Storyline
I absolutely love medical dramas so this show immediately interested me. The cast was amazing and portrayed their characters very well. One of the main characters, Conrad, is a very charming but arrogant doctor that is also very caring underneath his ego. You can't help but to love his character. The interactions between the doctors and patients are believable and add to the overall tone of the show. The show has the perfect balance of drama, intensity and comedy to keep it lighthearted. It is a very enjoyable show to watch. If medical dramas are your thing or if you just like a little bit of suspense with a dab of romance underneath then this might definitely be the show for you.

Unusual story
All the love for this audible release. This really is the best encapsulated, standalone romance I’ve read in an age. It’s an unusual story which is part of the strength because unlike most romance, it wasn’t a familiar storyline. The characters are equal measures of feisty, stubborn, loyal and caring and I loved them both very quickly. There's a great suspense element in this book two but it doesn't overpower.

I am a fan of kylie Scott but there was just something about how she wrote the heat in this book that was fantastic. Her plain use of vocabulary made everything come alive, if you catch my drift. Go listen the heck of Andi Arndt doing her thing on this audio.
