ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — great followup to the first book. Again, lots of great action, an intriguing and unique built world, hilarious banter between characters, a flawed protagonist that has been thrust into the craziness again….oh yeah, and Rune. *sigh* Hmmmm, how am I going to do this review without giving anything away? Impossible. […]
ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — OK, that was a fun ride. Seriously, so much more than I was expecting. First, I LOVED Katelyn’s voice….she could be just absolutely HILARIOUS. She is such a strong, spirited girl, but with a fabulous self-deprecating and witty sense of humour. I actually really enjoyed her friends in Rivermarch too, […]
3.5 stars — I both listened and read this book. This was another one of those books that while I couldn’t find fault with the narrator (and in fact I’ve enjoyed Ms. Guest in other audiobooks), I just had a harder time getting sucked in when listening. But when I would switch to reading, it […]
3.5 stars — I started this one by listening to the audiobook, but it really did not capture my attention in that format. It wasn’t that the narrator was bad, I thought she was quite good. But I think there was something about the narrative that just didn’t work for my distracted mind. So I switched […]
4 stars — Yet another book that I was wary of when I started…just wasn’t immediately sucked in, you know? Kept wondering where it was going to go. But somewhere along the way I did get sucked in, and I desperately wanted to know details of the mystery. I think this is probably a 3.75 […]
4 stars — HAAAALLLLLVAAAAAAARRRRDDDD!!!! Needless to say I was a wee bit excited when I figured out this was his story. (especially since it’s not mentioned in the blurb) I definitely enjoyed myself, and while I gave it the same rating, I would say I enjoyed the first book more…but I would almost bump that […]
4 stars — Wow. This one was fairly slow to start, and while I was enjoying it, I wasn’t wowed. It had some moments of repetition, and there were some pacing problems where I felt like there could have been some editing down. But then I got sucked right the fuck in, and holy cow […]
This one was ok, the story didn’t move very fast but the character development made up for it. Even though it wasn’t as fast as I usually like. I was really surprised I didn’t like it more. I love Melissa Haag’s writing but this one was by far the worst book I’ve read by her. […]
The cover is what initially caught my eye, the title is what made me click it. I think I was a bit predisposed to liking this book already since this is one of my favorite stories to have re-told and RH is kinda my jam so best of both worlds really. I’ve read a lot […]
Favorite Quotes: “Why are you ashamed of your body?” His soft voice caressed her bones. “I’m not,” she said, and it was true. She loved the hardness of her thighs, the tautness of her belly, the powerful clench of muscles in her back when she drew back her bowstring. “But in my culture, a female’s […]
