Really connected with Moreno's portrayal of grief. This is a very quick read with just enough spookiness.
3.5- VanderMeer books have become comfort reads for me. I appreciate the way he describes nature and incorporates it into his stories.
I can't say enough about this series. Fonda Lee has created some great characters and she always manages to keep the story a step ahead of the reader. As someone who can often guess where a story is headed I never felt like I knew what was coming with these books, and I enjoyed every minute of them.
I understand why some people do not like this book. It is graphic, but the world James has created is so unique and unlike anything I have ever read. I'm happy I gave this a chance and plan to continue the series.
I decided to read this after having heard about it everywhere. It is more young adult than my usual tastes, but wanted to give it a shot. While it was an enjoyable read, I didn't connect with any of the characters and think I would have preferred to read the story from Luc's perspective. Overall, I'd say it was a predictable love story.
Very quick read. Written in such an original and enjoyable way. I would recommend the comic The Good Asian to anyone who likes this book.
I couldn't put this book down. When not reading I was constantly thinking about the characters. I thoroughly enjoyed the world Fonda Lee has created and I am excited for it to expand in the next book.
This series is really doing it for me. The character development, political maneuvering, and fantasy elements are all done so well. I'm looking forward to reading Jade Legacy.
I really wanted more from this book. It had an interesting premise, but the story never really seemed to go anywhere. The characters weren't unlikeable, but there wasn't a whole lot of dimension and the themes were heavy handed.
Patti's writing always captivates me, and her ability to tell a story is unparalleled. A portion of this is a fictional tale as opposed to her usual non-fiction and I was blown away. Why doesn't she write more fiction!?
I really loved this! The art is insane and Alan Moore makes comics relatable and interesting for someone that never had much desire to read them.
3.5- Felt very Fellowship of the Ring inspired. I enjoyed the journey and overall message.
I really enjoyed the first two pov's but then the story fell off for me. I felt like I didn't know Holly by the time it came back around to her and I found myself not really caring about the story. Any easy enough read but didn't pull me in like I had hoped.
This series continues to be great. The pacing is always on point and the story never slows down making these books a breeze to read. If you like books 1-3 you will absolutely enjoy this one.
I good quick scifi read. I read this long after reading Annihilation and it immediately drew me back into the setting. Will definitely read book 3.
