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!

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.
Erika (17788 KP) rated Attachments in Books
Sep 4, 2017
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.

Heather Cranmer (2721 KP) rated The Dead Girls of Hysteria Hall in Books
Jun 7, 2018
I loved Katie Alender’s Bad Girls Don’t Die series. I was ecstatic to find out she had written another horror ghost story. Miss Alender did not disappoint me with the Dead Girls of Hysteria Hall.
This was a book I didn’t want to put down. I would have read it all in one sitting too had it not been for real life getting in they way.
I loved all the characters and felt they were well written. Florence was my favorite character though for some reason.
The story line was well written. Plus, I love horror stories where an old house is involved.
Yes, some of the plot twists are predictable, and there were times I had some unanswered questions, but I still loved the book.
I would definitely recommend this book. I’m hoping Miss Alender will write another horror ghost story soon. She’s definitely one of my favorite authors.

Loz Hughes (80 KP) rated Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban in Books
Jul 14, 2018
By far my favorite Harry potter book.
Contains spoilers, click to show
Ive always found this book to be my favorite out of the whole series purely because Harry finds some family...his godfather, whom after a convoluted storyline he realises isnt set out to murder him. Its the only book where I feel he actually has a few happy moments in his life and is discovering who he is and achieves a bit of character stability. I love how the story handles the introduction of Sirius and displays the political and media spin that happens in the background (between the bad reporting on the daily prophet and ministry of magic). Also the trio (Harry, Ron and hermoine) seem to have solid bonds of friendship grow tighter in this storyline.
starwarsluvr (236 KP) rated Heart of Stone (Gargoyles, #1) in Books
Jan 30, 2018
One of my new favorite series. I love gargoyles and don't see many good stories with them. Mix gargoyles with sexy and you get this book. Amazing characters, amazing plot and storyline. Sexy man/gargoyle. I loved the way the story played out and how everything came together. I loved the attraction and the twist in the story. Everything in this makes me excited for the next book. I can't wait until it comes out. Amazing!
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2200 KP) rated The Last Battle (Chronicles of Narnia, #7) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A great evil comes to Narnia. Can good defeat it one last time? This is a different book for the series, and it certainly wasn't the ending I expected when I first read it in 3rd grade. However, as an adult, I've come to love it. This is my second favorite in the series.

B (62 KP) rated Uglies (Uglies, #1) in Books
Sep 30, 2018
I read this book around 10 years ago so excuse my vagueness and lack of detail. While I love its premise, the characters in Uglies annoyed me and I found them hard to relate to. Granted I was around 12 years old and I think I may be due for a reread. I nonetheless am grateful to this book and its series because it was my gateway into YA Dystopian which is now one of my favorite sub-genres.
Sarah Betts (103 KP) rated Miss Minchin Dies (Sukey Reynolds, #11) in Books
Dec 31, 2019
I received a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
This is the third book I've read in the Sukey Reynolds series and so far it's my favorite.
A woman is dead. Another woman is dead. These don't seem to have anything in common but our girl Sukey has a hunch that they do.
The dialogue in this one crackles and the detective work is exceptionally well written.
