This book, while strange at times, was a complete gem, and I consider myself lucky to have found it at my local library. Since reading it the first time I have purchased a copy of my own and plan on reading it again. This book is imaginative but very relatable, with a strong female lead and real life issues addressed. If you are a fan of YA fiction and fantasy books then you should give this book a try. While it may not be a typical "happily ever after" story, it is more captivating and memorable than most books I have read. That much said, I give it a five out of five. If such things were possible, I would give it a six.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400988234205141826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1816359737285871844.post-81294234530519257552015-06-24T01:33:38.311-04:002015-06-24T01:33:38.311-04:00It's great post!

I thought it sounded unique and intriguing and so I decided to read it. The characters are what made me keep reading it. I loved how Arin is the slave. It's usually the girl that's low on the totem pole.I loved it was Kestrel trying to save Arin. She's risking her happiness for him. I'm so excited for the 3rd book.

I have loved books with dragons in the past, but it was because I loved books that HAPPENED to have them, not BECAUSE they had them. Seraphina was such a rich character and the pacing of the novel was just masterful. The story was allowed to progress slowly and given room to breathe. It managed to be slow, but never to drag or lose my attention.<br /><br />Also, Kiggs.

I'm intrigued to hear that this one is really innovative with its mythology and story arc, so it might be worth a shot with me.

No such luck. They dispel that notion very early on. When Thomas is thrown into a hole they shake the camera all over the place. And to top it off they show nothing but super close ups of peoples faces so you are looking up their nostrils the entire movie. They even focus in super close on a persons eye so it fills the whole movie screen. These guys are sick and I can't believe any sponsors pay for it. I had totally quit going to the theatre due to shaky cam. A review saying this movie was free of it brought me to the theatre. Boy am I sorry. I will now have trouble believing any review that says same. No movies for me at the theatre anymore.wblisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03418838016113820218noreply@blogger.com
