Good building on a world of magic
A good second book in the series that would become my favorite. Jim is still trying a bit in this to find his voice, and the writing will develop more fully in the next couple of books, but still a solid addition to the series. Dresden is a very human and relatable hero, but with a wonderfully crafty mind and hilarious self-depreciating sense of humor.

Well Written Novel
Strong Female Main Character
Start of an amazing series
This book is a little Beauty and the Beast-esque, which makes me love it all the more.
Especially as Belle is my favourite Disney Princess!

The main character is a strong female who overcomes many challenges, she certainly can't be seen as weak or a damsel in distress.

Highly recommend this YA series to anyone that enjoys fantasy, it is possibly a bit graphic for younger readers though.

I don't like Chaol...whoops? (0 more)
Strong second book to the series
This has to be my least favourite book out of the series. I'm not a big fan of Chaol (#Celorian). I found him to be quite irritating and never really liked the dynamic between him and Celaena since Throne of Glass. However, it was a good book! The plot was hectic (it always is with SJM!) and was so addicting, I couldn't put the book down.

Okay so the series is great as usal but the final episode is what makes me give this season 10 stars. If you haven't worked out now i like when characters dies and oh boy where there deaths in this series. I'm sad because Tyrell my favorite house but then the queen of thorns continues to live so I'm happy.

Ayra transformation is finally complete and what a way to do it.

First of a series of Jigsaw
Of all of the the movies in this collection this was the best. Usually the first is because it is most original. The story of a serial killer who kidnaps his victims based in what crimes they have committed in their lives and makes them choose to live or die via playing a very ideally games which usually involves them dismembering themselves in some fashion. SOme learn some don't. The series now contains 6 sequells they should have stopped at 1

I enjoyed the first book so I decided to read the 2nd in the series. Granted it took me awhile to get to it, but I read it. And I have to say it took me forever to get through, yes Christmas was in there, but really!? 20 days to finish a YA book!? It was nothing to write home about, but I feel obligated to see the series through to the 3rd & final installment. I just can't decide if it's worth it or not...

Different angle from the other films
A good entry in the series
A very good addition to the series, better than the 3rd. Full of near non-stop action through out. A whole new range of terminators are on show and there are some great SFX, action scenes. Some might not like the plot as it does differ from the first 3 where the action is pretty much one on one. This is very much a full on war. Go see it.

This is the second book in this series by this author. I haven't read the first book in this series but it didn't matter one bit. This book was so funny, it had me laughing out loud several times. The characters were fantastic and were so easy to connect with. This author is quickly becoming one of my favourites the more I read. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended

This book will still shock you though. This book has fantastic twists and turns which will have your heart racing and will have you happy and sad. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
