A Perfect Movie
I grew up watching this film literally hundreds of times as a kid and adult. It is what I believe to be "the perfect film". The evidence speaks for itself:
1. The pacing of the film is perfect
2. The story is great!
3. The movie has brilliant comedic writing
4. The characters are likable, fun, and well rounded
5. Is one of the most quotable films in history
6. It's a classic that's actually a good movie

At first it was hard to follow this book due to the writing style. As well as that it irked me a bit when the main character wasn't using the language customs of her time even thought she never traveled prior to that, it seemed like it blended in well to either time she was but it didn't seem that believable.After that bit i really loved the story as a whole. It was captivating and adventurous and im excited for another in this story.

Still leased by Sony, who has not been good at the superhero movie
Reclaim what is rightfully yours, Marvel!
He's a teen! He sucks at life! Being Spider-Man is burdensome!
I'll give it this: that's pretty damned close to perfect as far as the writing goes. That said, I'm sure Sony will screw it up, like that time they shoehorned in Venom into SM3 for toy purposes and ruined it. Sigh.

The writing (2 more)
great characters
twist at the end
I didn't see that coming
ARC copy was given to me by the author
Not what I expected from Lucy Wild. It's well written, characters are great and that twist at the end ?. I have to say though it's not a genre I'm used to from Lucy or what I would read and I felt that the surprise ending was rushed. I'll just have to wait for Lucy to find her kinky streak again ❤

The lyrical writing style: an occasional overblown misstep but overall very good (1 more)
The obvious research and detail
The intertwined story device: not my favorite (1 more)
Some weak story devices and characterization
This book draws obvious parallels with Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series, so I was initially skeptical and expected to put it down almost immediately. But beyond the basic framework of the story, everything else about The Winter Sea stands very well on its own. It's not without its weak points, but overall this was a very enjoyable read.

Beautiful writing (2 more)
A great story
The circus and the characters are brillliant
Absolutely spectacular
It's been a while since I read this book but I remember being in complete awe of it. Every single word has a purpose, it's as if each one is specially selected to realise the novel's potential and it's quite rare to get that.
It's mesmerising and beautiful and it's nice to see magic used with subtlety yet still being important without overshadowing. It's difficult to believe this was a debut novel!

I'm in two minds about this book. It centres around a main character who is intentionally detestable and just an all round horrible spineless idiot. This is good in a way as it means the author has done a great job of writing the character, however I think i might have hated him too much as I found him too irritating and frustrating after a while. It's a shame really as I found the rest of the story very interesting and the ending was refreshingly different.

I really enjoyed this series of books, each one has had me reading late into the night. This story is gripping,gritty and emotional,you just wont be able to put it down. Fantastic characters. This author is fantastic at writing dark romances. I just couldn't put this book down till I'd finished it then I was left wanting more. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

I had heard good things about this book but the reviews were mixed. so I decided to give it a go and I'm glad I did. I really enjoyed it, it took a little bit to get into but then it just flies. this is defiantly a roller coaster of a story. the author has a brilliant way of writing the scenes so they are intense and very passionate which will suck you into the story.
