Love this series!
I love these books. They can be found in the children’s section of book stores but from the second book onwards they contain explicit scenes of a sexual nature and shouldn’t be read by children. Feyre is tough and a perfect main character

I found this story to be really cute. There is just this innocent feel to it that I really loved about it. I also enjoyed Magical Realism elements very much. My one complaint is that I would have preferred it if she had ended up the man that she didn't end up with in the end.

This is my favourite game by Rockstar. I found it addictive and the graphics were amazing.
Having the freedom to explore, acquire a bounty, hunt a bounty and catch horses, well that made the game right up my alley. Sure there were a couple bugs but they were so minor it was easy to ignore them

I'd read both 'Relic' and 'Reliquary' quite a few years back, and had enjoyed them both.

Based on those two novels, I decided to give 'Mount Dragon' a shot as well. Unfortunatley, this is nowhere near as enjoyable as those other two books: I found this one to be slow, heavy going, and totally lacking in any charismatic characters.
  
Set primarily within one location (a house) over the course of one night, this book - for me,at least - is the very definition of a 2-star rating.

Basically a swords and sorcery whodunnit, this is never going to win any awards for either storytelling or originality: I found the denoument to be rather obvious, for instance.

Not a bad book, but there's just so little really known about Katherine Swynford there's hardly enough to make a biography out of! I finished this feeling I had learned more about Margery Kempe than I had about Katherine Swynford. There were also several times when I found text repeated almost verbaitm from one section to another.
  
I am a huge Christopher Paolini fan as I grew up on the Eragon books. I am stoked that he is writing in that world again. I found these three short stories to be fun and a cool way to explore the world. I also definitely squealed every time we got to see any of the old characters!

Description and detail was really good.
Book flowed really nicely
The first of a great series
Great first book in the series. The book is set in Aberdeen Scotland, and being an Aberdonian I found it amazing how the detail and descriptions made me visualise the streets and places in my mind

The beginning starts off quite exciting and uncovering topics such as ethics and morality which I found to be the most interesting and intriguing parts of the book. (0 more)
Not terrible but once you know the real reason for the study by Dr Shields, I felt there could have been another plot twist or two. (0 more)

Been a long time since I played it. I remember it being cute and funny like most Zelda games. I didn't care for the 3ds when we had it. Games looked cool on it, but I found a lot of them hard to play. I think I prefer a game system over any type of ds.
