This book needed a bit more development of both the world and the characters. Otherwise, it was a fun quick read.
Also, is it weird to say, but I did not like the format of this book? Like? The pages were too short and narrow (text wise), even though the pages themselves were pretty good sized.

The first half was a good insight into the mind of Maven. The second half was a good insight into the motives of Cal. Gosh. The last book is going to kill me.

Elantris was pretty good. It wasn't my favorite of Sanderson's but definitely a necessary read for the Cosmere... I gave it 4 🌟's simply because of that ending. There was definitely a TON of build up and he sure freaking delivered. Can't wait to read more about Sel, and the awesome characters that live on the system.

If you like learning about political economics, this is definitely the book for you!! Very informative, if a little out dated (was written in 1944-ish). It is still, however, very relevant today!!

The Cuckoo's Calling | Robert Galbraith

The beginning was interesting. But it did drag a bit in places, and honestly read more like a screenplay, or something, than an actual novel. I wanted more from this book than it actually gave me... *sighs* I will try the next book in the series though! Hopefully JK Rowling will get better at writing Detective Novels...

I'm a little over 50% done with Outlander, and I really don't like how they treat their women. I mean, Claire was saying stop and no, but you know "Wives must obey their husbands..." so and so forth. I like the writing, though. It really puts you in the time and place.

Empire of Storms | Sarah J Maas

Okay, so that's insane. I honestly hope there is some way around Elena's promise to the gods. And that Aelin doesn't have to freaking die, 'cause if my fire breathing bitch queen dies, I die.

ThePuffleHuffleKitteh I have a feeling it'll be Dorian, doing the 'honorable thing' instead of her. x 8y
Listeningtotheleaveslaughter @ThePuffleHuffleKitteh Ugh. I don't want him to die either. I'm honestly wondering if it'll be Manon. I mean, she went through the mirror too. And she's immortal, and she has magic. But, I don't want Manon to die either. Gah! I know that Elena said it had to be someone with Mala's power... but not Aelin... *cries hysterically* 8y
ThePuffleHuffleKitteh Yes exactly. But I really don't want Mannon to die :'( I'd sacrifice Dorian to save Aelin and Mannon 8y

It's taking me a while to get into this one. Having the same problem with Soul of the Fire. Hmmm... I did just finish my third reread of ACOMAF too so that could be why.

CaitlinSiem I had a bit of trouble getting through this one but book two was definitely better. 8y
Listeningtotheleaveslaughter It got a little better, near the end. I can definitely tell she got some inspiration from Romeo and Juliet. Anyways, I hope I like book 2 more... @CaitlinSiem 8y

Rick Riordan's writing never ceases to amaze me. The idea behind this is pure gold. Get it? Because he's the sun god, and has(d) golden rays of sunlight? No? Nevermind then...

Got sucked into this one really quickly. The politics, the court, the *clears throat* fun times. Ah. Yes. I enjoy it.

mahasoor tried this series ages ago and couldn't really get into it. I've heard nothing but praise for the books though, 8y
mahasoor (fat fingers hit send too fast lol) I'll have to check them out again and give the series another chance. 8y
Listeningtotheleaveslaughter @mahasoor It is good. I did set it aside to finish another though, but I have less than half of it left to read, so I'm gonna pick it back up again. I miss the world... 8y
