Honey the Hero

This was another cute story in the bird brain book series. Very sweet story about Honey who tries to be a hero but screws it up a lot. It had a good moral of keep trying even when you screw up. I enjoyed it and I am glad i got to review it

<i>Moral Sins</i> is Wilks' best work, really showing her growth as a writer. I can't seem to figure out a way to give much more without spoilers, which wouldn't make any sense at all to those who are new to the World of the Lupi anyway. A good read, though!

This story is complicated. It deals with many moral issues. Families, marriage, strength and weakness. This is a great story coming out just in time for you to toss in your tote bag or beach bag. Just do it!

Bittersweet drama, a little dry
As interesting as the parallel dialogues were of both father and daughter, the story fell short slightly of its potential. It felt a little repetitive at times and ended rather suddenly with not much conclusion. It was sweet but it didn't quite reach the point of cementing a moral of the story.

Great movie to make your head spin

Definitely great revenge horror in the vein of I spit on your grave. Definitely a high point in ellen pages acting. But the level of pure moral ambiguity will definitely make you question if the goodguywe cheer is really doing good but be a necessary evil.

I really liked the plot but something about this book was a major let-down.

I like the moral question it raised, the dialing down of Creepy!Roarke, and Eve's friendship with Peabody and that's really it.

I know that this is supposed to be about three years from the first book but this one felt kinda stagnant.

Book Favorite

"I’m fascinated by the premise of Lessing’s horror story where the threat to survival is not external but literally inside the body and home of the protagonist. The moral quandary of raising a dangerous child is not one many of us will ever confront, but the painful struggle of this family is impossible to look away from."

The prolonged grief of watching someone suffer
Terribly sad to read Cathy Rentzenbrink's real account of watching her brother in a vegetative state eight years after a hit and run accident. It raises many moral questions including is it right to let someone live in pain or die quickly under horrible circumstances. This book is truly a love story between a sister and brother. Expect many tears.

A perfect introduction to Catwoman. Or Catgirl to start. How she came to be how she is and her relationship to Bruce. I really loved the Independence but also moral compass she had. They didn't make her feel like a criminal but more antihero, which is what she is.
If your a fan of graphic novels and beginnings this is a great read to jump in with.

really? that's how you end a series mr. westerfeld? i'm very disappointed. it took me reading over 1100 pages of your series to figure out what the hell kind of moral you were trying to get across. and it didn't even have to do with physical appearance!
well, it was fun while it lasted. even if you killed of one of my favorite characters.
