First off, I loved the cover and at first i found myself intrigued by the story and Gris but as I continued to read this I found myself having a difficult time getting through it as it appeared to become a dull read and maybe that's my fault as I went in with the expectation of getting at least the creeps but it didn't happen. I will warn readers that this does contain some self-harm issues which at times can be very descriptive.

One look at the cover and it makes you think that this is a kiddie book, but the saying; "Don't judge a book by its cover" rings true here.

Ayana and Tyler stumble upon a book sitting on a dusty shelf in the library that changes their lives as the book is all about how to summon dragons. However, they screw up and something magical happens, and they are transported to a different world that is full of adventure.

This delightful read captures the imagination and keeps you turning the pages.

Dec 12, 2017 (Updated Dec 12, 2017)  
Once I got into the story line I couldn't put it down. This was truly an interesting and intriguing read though by the end I was left with some questions but not enough to deter my rating. I did find some of the characters somewhat lacking but there were others such as Melody and Sam that made it all worthwhile to me. I enjoyed the paranormal elements to this story and I certainly enjoyed the world building. I will definitely read the next book in the series.

Who wouldn't love to visit a cafe that hosts several book club meetings per day? And sells books to boot? This is such a great location, it's a little disappointing to realize that it is only fiction.

In this story, Sassy finds her best friends and room mate the only convenient suspect for murder, and decides to snoop around on her own to clear her pal's name. Throw in a little family drama at home and a business to run, and she has her hands full! This was a fun story, and I'll definitely be reading the rest of the series.

My friend pushed me for months to watch this series! and by god was she right! It really brings the original series into the future.... the story of Sabrina and her family and friends, but in a way and world we can relate to now.... I'm still hung up over the season 1 cliff hanger and am on the edge of my seat to see what our little Brina does next.... like does she atually hang with the people who tormented her from the start? and does she ever get back together with Harvey?


again, I aim to remind everyone that these are MY opinions, which i am entitled to, you do no have to agree...

Fake news in a post truth era.
Not Buying It describes the ‘post-truth’ era really well, how social media and the media manipulates our opinions, and how politics is becoming a central area where we are seeing the results of this (as well as science). It covers both sides of the Atlantic and Charlotte Henry looks at how ‘fake news’ became a thing, how we were (and are) fed alternative facts, and finally what we can do to better inform ourselves.

It’s NOT a cheery read, but it’s an essential one! Highly recommended, and I enjoyed it very much.

Many thanks to The Pigeonhole, Unbound and Charlotte Henry for reading along.
  
This was a very quick, easy-to-read story that crossed over a lot of different genres. Not to be taken seriously as the author has mentioned, it's still enjoyabale. I feel like Jade Cooper has a lot of potential with her storytelling; however, there were a lot of grammar errors in the copy I was given. I also saw elements of fanfiction (which isn't surprising given that it features werewolves and vampires with some erotica mixed in.) I would recommend this to mature adults who need a fast novella to get out of a reading slump.

Loved this interesting mystery!
I loved the last book I read by Grace Hitchcock "The White city" and this one definitely follows along the same lines of greatness :) I loved the main characters, and I thought them to be very relatable characters with some fun quirks. I enjoyed the flow of the story, the mystery of it, and the heart stopping suspense :) It will definitely go down as one of my favorites.
I give this book 5 out of 5 stars for the great characters, funny moments, and superb suspense. I highly recommend this book!
