This well written story kept my interest from beginning to end and the characters are all unique and jump right out of the pages. Lisa is my favorite character and little by little she realizes that things are often not as they seem. I look forward to reading the second book in this series!!

Fairy Tale indeed!
I absolutely fell in love with this series! Adventure, magic, a love story featuring a beast of a man, an evil villian who you would love to see fail, and an ending that leaves you gasping and grabbing the next book! My all time favorite series and such an amazing author!

Loved it!!!
This book is great for a video game loving, 80s reminiscing, sci-fi geek who needs a good read. This book is really well read and came across really nice to those who would understand all of the 80s references. One of my favorite books that I have read in a while!!!

[The Last Orphans] by [N.W. Harris] was a quick read in my favorite genre of post-apocalyptic novels. The way people survive always gives me hope for society. When all the adults die is sudden and horrible ways Tyler finds himself taking care of the survivors. Can he save them before it is too late.

As usual Steve Berry does not disappoint. Cotton Malone, Cassiopeia Vitt, & Stephanie Nelle are 3 of my favorite characters. And happily, this book was no exception. It had all the history, intrigue, murder, & mayhem you come to expect from Cotton & Berry. No matter how many books I read with this combination they never get old.

One of A Kind Book
Great book. One of a kind! It's funny, gross at times and you never really know what to expect next. It was a hard book to put down and could re-read it over and over. I highly recommend this book to everyone! One of my favorite books by far!

This is my favorite book by Rainbow Rowell. I loved the character of Lincoln, and all of the characters were completely realistic. Attachments is about Lincoln O'Neill, who is tasked at screening emails to discourage personal use. He reads the conversations between two co-workers, Beth and Jennifer, and develops feelings for one of them.

This collection of short stories was alright. By far, my favorite was 'The Crimson Corsair and the Lost Treasure of Count Dooku'. While this is written for a younger audience, I didn't think it was a bad thing. 'High Noon on Jakku' was fairly good too, and I like reading more stories about Jakku.

Not my favorite
This book has some nice imagery, but for the most part it is an unimpressive read. I think this may be partly due to the fact that there were to many characters. The book wasn't long enough to support them all, and by the end I hadn't connected with any of them.

I have read books where having a large cast works well, but they are almost always longer.

That's pretty much what I was figuring. Part of it relies on the length of the story, and the other part relies on character development.
