I read this book on a recommendation. It has been talked about with much praise from many people I admire. The idea of finding love, losing self, and finding self is very good and this book covers it well. My issues is the style and format of the book. I like things that flow and it is choppy because it is written in a series of letters it seems. The voice is incredible and I will recommend this book but for me there was no flow just a series of photos with some missing.

The first thought I have about this book is that it is a mystery that doesn't try too hard. The second thought would be that I can't believe I waited so long to discover Janet Evanovich & this series!!!
The characters are well developed & I found myself rooting for Stephanie Plum throughout the entire novel. She seems like someone you would want to know. She's funny & tough, but still manages to seem vulnerable without being all "girlie- girl." I can't wait to read the rest of the books in this series!

Here the series starts to fragment into a number of threads, all of which are key to the plot of the whole series.
Tisamon takes his half-blood daughter to be trained as a weaponsmaster, these scenes being quite emotional yet thrilling.
The Wasp Empire continue to be as annoying as their insect namesakes.
Overall, this book is like a big game of capture-the-flag, with everyone trying to get their hands on the shadow box, a mystical implement of unknown powers (but if the Wasps want it it must be bad!).

For me this marked the end of the first part of the series, as a lot of loose ends are tied up and this could have ended the series as a whole.
There are a number of conclusive battles/conflicts and the interaction between Tisamaon and Felise leads to some excellent scenes.
The thrilling conclusion puts an end to the Wasps' onslaught across the lowlands and sets up the next set of books to follow.
There is a definite downturn in quality from this point onwards, but it does improve again later.

The Runelords Spoiler Free Review
If you liked The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan you will like this series. This is the first book in The Runelords Saga. It's a very good sword and sorcery high fantasy series with multiple perspectives and a unique magic system. This first book introduces and starts building the characters and world well and the action is just beginning. I have a feeling things are going to get rough through the rest of these books. Deffinately a highly recommended book in my opinion.

The plots in the Rachel Morgan series just keep getting even more intriguing. I am (just about) fully enjoying everything in these books; the only thing I'm iffy about is the Rachel/Ivy thing. I don't know what direction Ms. Harrison is taking it, but I sincerely hope she doesn't make Rachel her scion...or more. I think it would change the whole feel of the series for me. Otherwise, her books are fun, fast paced, and fascinating. I can't wait to read the next one! :)
4.5 stars

This is the fourth book in this series by this author. These books just keep getting better and better the more you read. The characters in this book are amazing and really well written. this book has an emotional story line. I love how the books entwined together. I couldn't put this book down till I'd finished it, then I was left wanting and needing more. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

Very good animated film

Usually in my opinion the first film in a series is the best. I feel that's true for the cars series. However this is still a great feel good film. Great for kids and adults. I love the addition of more characters and more environments beautifuly tweaked from reality to fit in to the alternate world of cars. It fits well with real life, with the retirement of all the race cars and the new intake of youth. Very entertaining with an underlayer of life lessons.

fab read
This is the seventh book in this series by this author. This book starts right after 'Until Harmony" finishes. This is a low angst, extremely hot and entertaining love story. Amazing well written characters with very intense chemistry between them. This is a fantastic addiction to this series. You will be hooked from the first page and left wanting more from this author. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
