Absolutely amazing. Every single bit of the books from the first word to the last has a way of drawing you in and making you want to know what's next. Arthur and Ford become your friends and you just can't wait to see what their next adventure will be. it's been awhile since I read the books, definitely want to read them again very soon.
I hate books that have the plot move forward by way of the main character remembering more and more about things.
I also hate books that do this while also making you feel like you can't trust their memories at the same time.
I don't enjoy books that are predictable knock-offs. Basically, watch a Jason Bourne movie if you want to know what this book is about.
And what is going on with the weird kids who have strange powers? Not explained, not cool.

Goodreads
I love Goodreads. I can keep track of what I've read, find books I want to read, meet new people and join groups, talk to authors, even set yourself a reading challenge for the year. Love that you can review your books, comment other people's reviews, add your Facebook friends and find out what they are reading too! I've found so many new books because of Goodreads. Can even let Goodreads into your kindle account and it will add what books you have bought or got samples of so you can add them into your "To Read" list.

Second of an epic series
Contains spoilers, click to show
The book series to me will always bet better becuase of the detail it uses but, yet again the acting is spectacular in this sequel to Fellowship of The Ring. The story continues with our hero making his way to Mordor while the rest try to protect him in other ways by gathering an army. The story does introduce us to Gollom one of the most tragic characters in all of the stories (in my opinion) He plays a pivotal roles in the second and third books. Don't want to spoil it for you but, read the books to get a better point of view of his character.
Auburn (57 KP) rated Mackenzie (Heritage Bay Series, #2) in Books
Apr 10, 2019
The best kind of emotional journey a book could have. Mackenzie sucks you in from page one and keeps the twists coming not to mention the all of the juicy drama M.A Foster can smush into a book. The anticipation of the romance and the slow realistic burn of it just adds to the already perfect mix. Making this one of the best contemporary books I have read lately. You will laugh, you will cry, and you may just stay up all night reading it.

David McK (3422 KP) rated Sword of Kings in Books

The latest (at the time of writing) in Bernard Cornwell's series of books about the making of England, and we're now a lifetime on from Alfred (the Great's) death, with Alfred himself being a key player in those earlier books.
However, Uhtred is still tied to Alfred's family by various oaths he has made over the years, with one such oath causing him to leave his (reclaimed) homeland of Northumbria, and in particular Bebbanburg, and travel south in an attempt to fulfil that oath.
With large portions of this novel set mainly in and around London (or Lundene), this felt to me somewhat like a bridging novel, setting up the future status quo and laying seeds from what is still to come (the unification of England)
