Sarah Betts (103 KP) rated River of Fire: My Spiritual Journey in Books
Dec 31, 2019
I received a copy of River of Fire from Random House Publishing Group through Netgalley.
One of the most noticable things about this book is the compassion in which it is written.
This is all that happened before Dead Man Walking (one of my all-time favorite books.)
I am not at all religious but enjoyed it very much.

Alison Pink (7 KP) rated Buried Secrets (Nick Heller, #2) in Books
Jan 15, 2018
I won this book as a First Reads giveaway on Goodreads. I had never read any of the Nick Heller series so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Let me begin by saying I was pleasantly surprised. The book is well written with deep, meaningful characters. It was filled with nonstop action and enough suspense for three books. I think I havediscovered a new favorite series! Nick Heller is comprable to Berry's Cotton Malone without being an obvious knock-off. I truly enjoyed this book & will be looking for more Joseph Finder books in the future.

Phenomenal
This is not my first book by Kevin Hearne, but it isby far my favorite. The world-building is comprehensive and flawless, the characters are relatable and fully actualized. The best part is that he is teaching the art of good story-telling while he tells one hell of a good story. The narrator for the audible book made it even better! I was so engrossed that I literally screamed in frustration when it was over and I realized I was going to have to wait for the next book to know what happens to Abhi and the others.
Caffeinated Fae (464 KP) rated A Natural History of Dragons: A Memoir by Lady Trent in Books
Jul 12, 2018
Oh man, I did not think I was going to like this book as much as I did. First off, I love dragons. They're some of my favorite mythical creatures so naturally this book intrigued me. I have to say, I really loved this book. The characters were strong & I could easily relate to them. Isabella was a fun character to watch grow. Her tenacity was admirable & I kept rooting for her. The plot was unique & kept me guessing which I really appreciated.
All in all, I loved the character growth & I will definitely continue on in this series.

Loved this book
Unlike most of Sarah Dessens books Once and For All isn't about first love. Its about what comes after. I really enjoyed the flash backs that slowly showed the reader Louna's past. In general the book is about Louna as she moves forward in life, so it was nice to see how her past played such an important role. Louna is one of my favorite Sarah Dessen characters, and her friendship with Ambrose had me smiling throughout the book. This is definitely a must read for anyone who is a fan of young adult romance.

A New Favorite
* I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.*
I absolutely loved this book. Brandy is one of the best characters I've come across in a while. She's funny, and extremely realistic. Jer her love interest, is a great addition to the story. He has everything going for him in a way that makes him extremely dreamy. He also has just enough flaws to keep him from outshining the other characters.
If you are interested in a romantic comedy featuring a late bloomer, then this is definitely a book you should pick up.

Andrew Koltuniuk (762 KP) rated The Two Towers (The Lord of the Rings, #2) in Books
May 14, 2020
The Lord of the Rings was my favorite book series growing up. I compare all of the books that I read to Lord of the Rings. J.R.R. Tolkien spent so much time and effort on these books, that is it is easy to see just how incredible they are. The Two Towers does a very effective job of picking up where the first book leaves off. I love the story as we follow Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli in their adventures across Middle Earth. Tolkien does a fantastic job of building the tension and heightening this book.

WOWOWOW. I picked up this book after a million recommendations from tiktok of all places, and it did not disappoint. I waited until I'd finished the current books in the series to review any, and I can say that this is my least favorite of the series, but still earns 5 stars easily for me! If you're having a hard time getting into it, I guarantee it gets better. I fell in love with the characters in this series. The world building is amazing, and this has easily become my favorite series. So thankful to have come across this.
