Bone lady
In the battle between brains and brawn, it's nice to watch brains come out on top in the looks department! Although the social ineptness of highly intelligent people is portrayed, it's refreshing to see the journey each character makes throughout each season. The storylines aren't as far-fetched as some may perceive, with the fantastic Kathy Reichs giving her anthropological insight to the script.

A lovely, lighthearted and easy read that had me itching to find out more.
It kept me entertained and wanting to continue flicking through the pages.
You were given the impression that the main character was a bit of a drip to start with but boy did she develop. She became a very inspiring character and a great icon that women young and old can draw motivation from.

Such a beautiful series
This entire series is so amazing. The scenes are described is such rich detail that it transports you into the story. Feyre was easy to love. She is a very strong female character and I was invested in her story from the start. Tamlin intrigued me and I really felt drawn to Lucien. I felt like I was drawn to his character.

Amazing first book in the series!
The guys are all so individual and amazing. Completely different from any characters in any other book I've read. Laurel has created this fabulous alternate reality that I could only wish to be a part of. Carlyle is this beautiful strong female lead and you can really tell Laurel loves her character as you read the story. This book sets the tone for the whole series and if you've read the other books, you will know she just keeps up the standard the whole way through.

Fight like Alexandra Andros
I'm a huge fan of Greek mythology to begin with but the vivant series is my fav orite. Jennifer L Armentrout is a spectacular writer who work is always outstanding.
Alexandra Andros (Alex) is a great lead character strong and cool Harry but brilliant follows her heart and always does the right thing if people want a strong female lead you can not get better than Alex

I was initially disappointed that a lot of the humor was seeing the main female character in so many humiliating pratfalls and fails, however, it turns around some with Thelma Rotter's strong female role and her hiring Debbie Reynolds' character as a female ranch hand instead of hiring a male ranch hand, Reynolds' determination in working hard to support her family instead of taking the easy way out and becoming someone's wife and relying on a man to support her, and Reynolds' eventually becoming sheriff of this frontier town. There is a lot of corny humor in this movie but it's worth a watch. It was great seeing Andy Griffith in the movie and as one of her love interests.

Love story
Nyx is honestly my favorite female book character. She has such a realism to her that I want to wrap around me. She isn't this hero who is going to her death great full for a chance to save her world, she is angry and full of poison and it's so refreshing. She isn't a perfect martyr. Not to mention the book takes its time and the time frame isn't a few days and Boom! She's in love. She has the opportunity to learn something about her husband and he has the opportunity to show he loves her for who she is. I reread the book constantly and I highly recommend it as a love story.
