Love the way this book flows the characters are very well created. Each character has its own relationship to the two main characters and each compliment them so well. I would recommend this book to avide readers as this book is quite long it may take a lot longer then a normal book.

This is a topic I love to read about, well this and any other disaster. This book was well researched but it seemed a bit repetitive. It just kept jumping all over the place. The facts are correct and the stories are good but there may have been a few too many included.

Wonderful reading style.
I loved this book, it is very well written and had plenty of twists and turns. I wish the ending was a little different but the way this book is written you wont want to put it down.

Super user friendly
Almost everything is thought out well with the user on mind. Bookmarking and speed of narration are two things that are superior to all other audio apps I know. The shopping element of the app works well. Sometimes the recommendations don't work or line up to your current read.

"I used to watch it all the time as a kid. It led to my obsession with hip-hop as a teenager. I probably watched it like once a week for two years. I watched it again the other day. Even though it’s super cheesy, it’s still really well done and well shot."

Book Favorite

"A collection of magical, supernatural Japanese folk tales, first recommended to me by a well-traveled and well-read friend, this collection has a special significance as a four line footnote from this book about a young boy training to be a samurai inspired the screenplay of my first feature film, “The Warrior.”"

Well done
Lots of action and great cinematography. The acting was good and the story unfolded well. There some ups and downs with a few, somewhat predictable surprises along the way. Chris Hemsworth was great. There's a lot of violence in this movie so maybe not for the kids. Otherwise, worth a watch!

I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A BEAR HUG I am going to give you a bear hug, is a sweet adorable book. It has some rhymes in the book. It has animals and their cubs. This is good bedtime book for young readers. Young Readers could learn to read of this book as well.
 
It is done well. The pictures are well drawn. The pictures can tell the story themselves. It about giving a big hug and getting ready for bed.

Well well - my first Holly Black book - I wasn't disappointed - there was a lot happening in the middle, some of which I felt unnecessary - and there was a particular missing " at the end of a quote which drives me nuts. The book overall was great - it was well written and it was exciting and fun to read. And that ending. That ending was exciting and I really can't wait for book 2 to come out - thanks again owlcrate for another series I have to continue lol
