AT (1676 KP) rated Onward (2020) in Movies
Jun 19, 2020
I really enjoyed Onward a lot more than I thought I would. It had plenty of good humor throughout, but it didn't feel like they were scraping for it. The story was sweet, but had good animated action in it. The characters were good (not annoying). Best of all, there was no odd, long, boring part in the middle that some animated films have, when they suddenly feel like they need to fit a big lesson in. It's an enjoyable family movie all the way through!

3.5 stars
So I didn't realise this was set in Australia, it made a nice change from American stories, though the names for some items had me guessing for a short while
I enjoyed the storyline but it also kinda annoyed me in a way. I got a lot of where Tess was coming from with Toby but I don't think I agreed with the Sean bit. It was a change once more from the usual conflict in these sort of stories...But nope. Sorry.

Jan 7, 2021
Hmm...
I've enjoyed this series a lot and as I'm currently on holiday in Vegas I thought it would be great to read this while I was here, imagining the Councils residences above the hotels of the Strip, but most of this book isn't even set in Vegas and I kinda lost interest about half way through for a while.
Eventually I picked it back up and finished it. The war on magic is almost here now and everything is intensifying.
Off to start book 10

This didn't end, the story didn't conclude, which makes me think it's some sort of serial...which has annoyed me a little.
Not enough really happened in this for me to really like it, though i wish Ayden had just gone for it with Lyric a lot sooner than the last 50 pages or so. I'm not sure if I'm interested enough in the characters and the storyline to continue the series but it was nice to see Ethan, Lila, Ella and Micha again.
