Auburn (57 KP) rated Empress of All Seasons in Books
Apr 10, 2019
I feel like all that really needs to be said is: Girl Power. This book has it, is about it, and is not quiet about it.
The story has wonderful elements of humans and a beautifully explained view of so many types of Yokai. I really enjoyed seeing all of the different types and learning more. I just wish the plot didn't swing so many times from person to person. It ended up a bit jumbled.
While I enjoyed the story and the different takes on Yokai I was not a fan of the ending. That is the reason for the 3 stars.

I’m reviewing the “Top 10 of Everything 2018”, and as the title suggests this is a fun book full of top ten lists, all found to astound you, by the fabulous information gatherer Paul Terry.
On each page there’s additional facts with engaging pictures. There’s also a full subject index, which will have information seekers drooling. Young and old, alike.
An ideal book for any list-loving who enjoys learning new things and discovering mind-boggling facts you just wouldn’t find anywhere else.
Perfect for quiz masters, curious minds, and for use as a coffee-table book to get the conversation flowing!

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
This is the first I have read in this series but it is certainly not the last. I thought this was going to be another cliche romance story involving a female wronged by a man for a stupid reason and a man tired of meaningless sex. Honestly it would have been if the author wasnt such a good storyteller. I enjoyed both the characters and environment. Their love story was a delight, reading their journey of learning what they need rather than what they think they need.

When their shepherd is killed, the flock decide to figure out who would kill him. The premise was interesting and different but the first half was very slow as we spent all kinds of time learning about life in the pasture. There were some fun passages as the sheep tried to figure humans out. Eventually, the plot did get moving, although between the 18 sheep plus the humans, I had a hard time keeping everything straight.

Great for all ages
Everyone in my house loves this game from my 3 yr old son to my 35 yr old husband. There was even a study on how it's good for someone with depression and anxiety because of the socializing you do with the characters and the pace of the game. Fishing, bugs, fossils, and artwork make it educational and add in the occasional character who needs help with his countries rounds out the learning. Also, you can help your neighbors, create your own landscaping, and even design your own shirts! Plenty to do and events to participate in.

4.5/5* This book was such a pleasant surprise - randomly picking it up at the library (and reading 30 pages while standing there) I decided to take it home - I finished it within a day I was so addicted. The ragtag group of teens battling bullying and drugs - trying to find themselves through the summer. I think the hometown hero aspect was so fun, each person doing something great and trying to make a difference, learning not all choices are going to be cut and dry, and even the romance was great. Such an awesome book.
When I saw this on a library shelf I felt a warmth sensation filling me up inside.
I have, since the very first read of the The millennium Trilogy, been continuously involved in learning further about the books, the characters and of course, Steig himself.
However, when it came to reading this book it seemed to pinpoint on a section and then repeating its meaning with large words that over-powered one another.
I love psychology and I love the trilogy and anything belonging to this.
However, I didn't find it as fascinating as I hoped to have had.

Just Because
Just like book 1, this is a good book for young adults who like science fiction and romance. It might be a little boring for some adults.
MILA is on her own now but still doesn't know her place in the world. She is not only on the run from General Holland but also from Vita Obscura who both want to use her for their own gain. With all the running and the confusion going on inside her head, MILA has no clue who she can trust and is learning to rely on herself.
