ArecRain (8 KP) rated All the Lovely Bad Ones in Books
Jan 18, 2018
Everything this woman writes is gold. I am 21 years old and I love her books with a passion even though they are only meant for children. Something about the way she writes just enraptures me to the point that I must finish the book. Her novels are quick reads, but they keep you interested, even with their simplicity. There are no drastic twists in the straight forward plot and it tends to be a bit predictable. But her characters are very real in their actions, thoughts, and reactions to situations.

I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads.
I loved this book!! It is heavily influenced by Sherlock Holmes (whom I love). Fans of Sherlock and classic detective books will love this book.
I love how short & sweet this book is, yet it is able to fit the full story in. Also, I am a big fan of books with short chapters. For some reason, it makes me read them faster, haha.
The plot and two main characters felt real.
I'll definitely be reading more of this author and this series. =)

I received this book for free through GoodReads First Reads. I read the summary of this book and knew I had to read it! I absolutely loved it, and I can not fault it all. The plot will leaving you hanging on the edge of your seat (or bed as I always read in bed, lol). The characters are so well developed. I felt as if I was actually part of the story. I would recommend this book to anyone no matter what genre you like. You won't be disappointed.

As I’ve said before, I’m obsessed with Ready Player One. That said the movie isn’t the greatest piece. It also fails to muster the same nostalgic feeling I got when reading the book (no debate on book over movie please, I’ve had that conversation) so I am less vested in the on screen characters. That said, the characterisation of some key characters is good enough to keep me coming back for more, shame some of the key scenes never got shot. FYI Wil Wheaton reads the audiobook and that’s always a good deal.

I read this book for a book club on good reads a couple months ago. I enjoyed it, even though it was fairly Predictable, and kind of repetitive. The main character was a little two dimensional. This book is set in Scotland, which I thought was cool. The descriptions the author gave were very well written.
If you're looking for an easy read to while away an evening, look no further. But if you like a little more intelligence and actions in your reading, you might want to keep looking.

I use Facebook to keep up with friends and groups that I belong too. You can get addicted and look every few hours to see what people have posted and people run their life by it and get upset if they cannot get on. It is very useful for information but I don't like that it also reads your computer so if you are looking up something on google for example it then appears on your Facebook page as an advert. Big Brother is watching you all the time.

I loved the Vampire Academy series and held off reading this for ages thinking it might not have grabbed me as much as the other series but you know what? I got really into it! I always find Richelle's story quick and easy reads and this was no exception. If I could have, I'd have read this in one sitting but two long working days back to back ruined that idea and it's taken me four/five days instead.
I can't wait to read the rest of these books!!

Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Lola and the Boy Next Door (Anna and the French Kiss, #2) in Books
Jan 12, 2021
It's official: I am now a Stephanie Perkins fan. How could I not be after two reads that I've given five stars to?
I love reading her characters and the romance they share.
I loved Cricket in this; he was equally gorgeously cute and geeky. Some of the things he came out with *sigh* Too cute!
Also the appearance of Anna and St. Clair/Etienne was really cool! I can't help wondering if Anna, St. Clair, Lola and Cricket will make a surprise appearance in the third book in this series :)
