Merissa (13718 KP) rated Fixer: a Hidden Wolves prequel in Books
Nov 11, 2025
FIXER is a prequel novella in the Hidden Wolves series and features Wade and Dustin. Wade thinks Dustin killed his little brother, so please forgive him for not being too happy when he sees Dustin for the first time in seven years, and outside his window, of all places. Dustin didn't kill Shawn, but couldn't tell Wade, or the Alpha would have found out.
This is their story of how they come to be together, in a world where they're still not supposed to be! I haven't read any of the other books in this series, but am now curious to know what happens. It made a real change to read a book where two wolves who are mates felt absolutely no pressure to have a bond.
A great introduction for a new reader and definitely recommended by me.
** Same worded review will appear elsewhere. **

Rebecca Billcliff (2409 KP) rated Batman: The Animated Series in TV
Nov 12, 2019 (Updated Nov 13, 2019)
Best Batman
If you are a fan of this series, as soon as you see the cover, the opening music will be playing in your head. This is the GoT of 90s animation. It is all done so well, and on a big scale, a proper score, talented voice actors, quality animation, it's all here!
The odd episode may miss the mark, but otherwise you are fully drawn in to a Bat man that is dark, has depth, but also some humour. While it is suitable for kids (Not too young, and I would advise parents take a look, just incase) it does not pander to them and is great for adults too. Some other DC animations have tryed to emulate this, and done well. But none have quite found the same beauty the original has achieved.
A Must for any Bat-fans out there, and I can not wait for my son to join me in a binge session on this classic.

Ghost (30 KP) rated Sword Art Online: 1: Aincrad in Books

An epic adventure into the world of Virtual Reality gaming
This is the first instalment of the Sword Art Online series, originally written in Japanese but translated into English in the form of a light novel. The first book introduces you to the world and some of the players, the plots, side plots and the different factions that form. Most players team up to the defeat the game, but the main character decides to go it alone. Thousands of players die, thousands are still trapped but once the game has been completed you might be fooled into thinking that this is the end. This is not the case, so far I have read 17 of the books in the main series and a few other side stories. This is an epic world and an epic story.

I never thought I would like a series like this one. It was new to me and I did enjoy it. You get something that no other book does or often. You get recipes at the end of each chapter. I want to finish out this series when the books come out. I hope it soon. If you like recipes this book may be for you. None the less I hope you can decide for yourself. I hope you enjoy reading it. I hope you have a good experience with it but if not it okay. I really had a hard time putting it down. My other this is I had a little bit of a hard time reading it. It had nothing to do with the author or her writing. It had something to do with me myself and understanding the concept.
TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Valerie's Verdict (Dixon Brothers #2) in Books
Feb 23, 2021
WOW. This book... I loved Hallee Bridgemans approach to the topics she presented in this book! Not many people are have the gift of writing realistically about domestic abuse and racial tensions in one book. Hallee Bridgeman did a great job without being real political about it. She told it like it is.
The characters drew me in instantly with the descriptions she gave of the Dixion brothers and Valerie herself. This is the second book in the Dixion Brothers series, but it can be read as a stand alone. You wont feel lost if you haven't read the first book in the series yet.
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars for the great story plot, amazing character build, and for leaving me in anticipation of what will come next for the Dixion Brothers.

Merissa (13718 KP) rated I'rone (Guadel Chronicles #1.5) in Books
Apr 7, 2023 (Updated Apr 10, 2023)
This short story takes a leap back in time to when I'rone was but a boy and not yet married to either Betreec or Jasmine. It is a short story but still manages to provide an interesting addition to the series and tells you how Betreec and I'rone came to be (also Jasmine but that only becomes clearer later on). Something happens in this story that becomes a point of interest in the following books so it is definitely worth reading if you are going to read the series.
Short but packed full of relevant information. A definite bonus to read.

Never expect an end to a great series
Wonderful book but a warning, don't expect to finish the series. The author seems to literally postpone writing the last, or at least next, book in the series for anything, and I mean anything. Like playing video games, and he brags/laughs about it on his social media. So not sure I should recommend this book no matter how good the series is, because the author seems very unmotivated to finish the cliffhanger you are left with in the second book.
A great series that may start a bit slow, but picks up fairly quickly as we go throughout the main characters life. The first book leads into the second, and the second should lead to a third, but once again the problem is you are left in the second before what feels like the big climax that if the third ever happens should be an epic conclusion.

Tifflynn032418 (59 KP) rated Scarlet (The Lunar Chronicles, #2) in Books
Jul 17, 2018
I am huge fan of the lunar chronicles series. Just as the first book, scarlet surpassed my expectations. It's a refreshing and unique take on the fairy tale of little red riding hood. The book also continues with the story of Cinderella from the first novel of the series. The story keeps you interested the entire time and has simple twists and turns to keep you coming back for more. The characters are good kids but flawed in a way that lets you remember they are just like us, you cant help but love them all. The villain of the series is so vile the reader just cant wait to see her get what she deserves. I would recommend this series to anyone who loves the ya genre. It is also clean enough for my ten year old to read. I can not wait to read the next novel in the series: Cress.
Merissa (13718 KP) rated War of Gods Box Set (War of Gods #1-4) in Books

War of Gods Box Set (War of Gods #1-4) by Lizzy Ford
War of Gods Box Set features the first four books in this series by Lizzy Ford. I understand there is a spin-off featuring at least Xander, but I'm not sure about the rest of the characters. I had previously read Danian's Oracle and couldn't wait to continue with this series. I wasn't disappointed! The female characters are strong in their own right, and not afraid to stand up to the male in their lives. The men are stubborn and opinionated, but tamed (sorted of) by their women. The stories all link up, so I would recommend that you read them as a series, just so that you don't get confused with what is going on, or what has gone on before. The writing is smooth in most places, but sometimes felt a bit jerky when it came to the love scenes that weren't written. Instead of fading to black, they abruptly cut to black, and then to the following morning. This wasn't a big issue, it just felt more obvious considering how smooth the rest of the writing was.
I loved Damian's Oracle and The Grey God. Whilst I didn't 'love' the others, I still thoroughly enjoyed them! I have no hesitation in recommending this series for all those who love feisty females and macho males.
