ArecRain (8 KP) rated Howl's Moving Castle in Books
Jan 18, 2018
Possible my favorite of all time. I loved the characters and their crazy personalities that drew me to them. Every page was charming and filled with Diana's clever mastery of the plot line. There was so many surprises, though not unpleasant, that I could not wait to see how the whole novel ended.
Literally a book for all ages filled with a little romance, adventure and humor.

ArecRain (8 KP) rated The Gladiator's Mistress (Champions of Rome, #1) in Books
Jan 18, 2018
I was thrilled to receive this novel as it encompasses three of my favorite things: historical Roman romance. While I enjoyed the book overall, I wasnt blow away by it. Everything seemed so simple from the plot to the characters. There is nothing wrong with the story, I just felt like it was lacking in some factor to really make it stand out.

i jumped into this series at book 3. not many important spoilers. but then i jumped from book 3 to this one. BAD idea. HUGE spoiler. it's kind of ruined the beginning of the series for me. instead of enjoying the storyline and going with the flow i'm analyzing character actions.
besides the disappointment of knowing too much, it was still entertaining, though not my favorite.

One of the stars from the TV show Babylon 5 talks about her life and overcoming alcoholism. While I would have loved more about Babylon 5 since it's my favorite TV show, I still found the book fascinating and had a hard time putting it down.

Mar 9, 2018
Jim's run off, and it's up to Trixie and Honey to find him. But trailer thieves and a family on the run complicate things. A very fun book with great characters. And it includes one of my all time favorite scenes in the series, too.

Britt Smith (36 KP) rated The Light Fantastic: Discworld Novel 2 in Books
Mar 13, 2018
Yet again, this second part to The Color of Magic was absolutely brilliant. I marvel at Pratchett's ability to make me smile each and every page, while still giving forth characters that I can feel attached to. Marked as one of my favorite books, I will no doubt return to this one even as I make my way through all the novels of the Discworld.
Melinda McGuire Abel (1 KP) rated Scythe (Arc of a Scythe #1) in Books
Mar 13, 2018
I am not a big reader of dystopia novels, science fiction or fantasy. I am unsure where this goes, but I don't care. This has to be one of my favorite books of 2018. Neal Schusterman does a great job of developing the story, but also the characters. I would highly recommend this story to others. I can't wait to read the second book in the series.
Sean Farrell (9 KP) rated Imajica in Books
Mar 15, 2018
Read this back in 8th or 9th grade and loved it, but now found that I couldn't really remember much of anything about it, which seemed like a good time to give it a re-read. And the 2nd time around I loved it at least as much as the 1st. This beautifully written tale has easily reaffirmed its position as my favorite book.
