ArecRain (8 KP) rated Sky High, Bone Deep in Books

As someone who reads a lot of erotica, this was not the worse nor the best. First of all, it was very short with little development beyond learning about the characters. Some of the dialogue with just awkward to read and I found myself skipping over certain scenes. Do not be fooled. There is nothing kinky about this book.

I adored this short story and the cover is incredible! I love fairy tales and legends so this was well and truly perfect for my style.
Such stunning, vivid imagery. It reminded me of Gaiman's writing throughout, beautiful and terrifying all at the same time.

Man, this was REALLY intense and scary for me.
I wish it was a little shorter and that the book moved along at a quicker pace (story-wise) but it was a suspenseful and intriguing read. Add that together + a lackluster ending and you get an exciting book that falls short of something a little more thought out.

**This book is NOT for kids!** Likely Stories in an interesting graphic novel. There are four odd short stories in the book, each a little more twisted than the others in various ways. It's an interesting read, if you're a Neil Gaiman fan, or if you're looking for a very adult graphic novel that isn't about superheroes.

Brilliant! I
I really enjoyed this but it was just way too short of a season.
It's fantasy that I have never seen before and what makes it even better is how it includes many of the everyday things we all read about, see, experience etc, such as racism, sexism, etc.
I can to wait for season 2

I quite liked this for such a short story. It took about 5/10 minutes to read but it's certainly left me wondering what happens next. The only problem with that is that the author no longer sells the book as individual stories and has done a revised edition with all the different parts in one full story.
The Chocolate Lady (94 KP) rated The Storied Life of AJ Fikry in Books
Oct 5, 2020
The curmudgeonly A.J Fikry is an unlikely character to own the only bookstore on a New England island, but all that begins to change when someone leaves a 25-month-old baby girl in his store. Read my review of this lovely novel here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2014/03/20/greater-than-the-sum-of-its-short-stories/

2.5 stars
A short story about Will's undercover adventure that occurs between books 6 and 7 of the series. The first chapter was jam-packed full of action. It was a quick read and while each discovery surprised me, I felt it was lacking something - but I'm used to the full-length stories, so maybe that's just my problem.

Gareth Michael Lewis (6 KP) rated Storm Front: The Dresden Files, Book 1 in Books

An exellent introduction into Harry Dresden's world
My lowest score for a Dresden novel ad it's only because I read this book after watching the short-lived TV series The Dresden Files. My perception of Harry was skewed by the excellent Paul Blackthorn portrayal and this book suffered because of it, in my eyes.
I went back to reread this book after the second novel came out and realised my error. The book was so much better than I remembered. Harry as a flawed individual but he is very human in that regard and we can identify with him, despite his magical powers.
Give it a read and dive into the world that keeps getting better with every new book, short story and graphic novel.
