Hmmmm.... so here's the funny thing. Its two years later after the third and final book of Nightshade came out, it's 2 in the morning, on October 1st, and I have just finished reading this book. Now the funny thing is that when this book first came out, i was about half through it when i stopped....
I personally think that a 3 star rating is pretty good. However, I know some people see that as a reason to stay away from the book. The story line was interesting. The book managed to incorporate a fantasy feel in a normal world which I appreciated. It was just that sometimes I felt like it was ...
I'm giving this 2.75 stars.This was a mixed bag for me. The story kept me reading but I wasn't in love with the plot. Looking for the elemental cross pieces reminded me of "Tiger's Curse" series. And this love triangle...good grief! Calla was so fickle it drove me crazy! Seriously...the way she...
Picked this up in the airport because the beautiful cover had been staring at me for weeks from shelves in every store I went to.This is from someone who usually takes about three days to finish a book I like: It took me 3 weeks to finally finish this. It dragged. I had to force myself to pick it...
I read this novella after I read book 1 Nightshade. Shadow Days is a great introduction to Shay and getting to know him before he meets Calla. I loved meeting his friends he had made before he moved into his uncles estate. Ally is my favourite. Andrea sets the scene perfectly and it did make me l...
So excuse me while I throw up!!! But this was whore shit!! Okay, first off....I should have read this before Nightshade maybe I would feel differently.....yea I don't think so. But still, I tried to swallow my hatred long enough to stomache this, this ridiculousness! Secondly, in some instances I...
The Inventor's Secret was given to me by my Young Adult Literature Professor. I found the novel entertaining to the point that I couldn't put it down. The relationship between Jack and Charlotte can be irritating at times. Charlotte reminds me of my sister in regards to men. She always thinks the...
OMG is all I can say. I thought the series was over after Bloodrose. But its NOT! the series is still going on. I liked Bloodrose and even though I was upset at the ending, I could've ended it there. I should have known it wasn't. This book brought back all emotions from the series. It's differen...
He stood in front of the door to Agnes’s chamber for a long while, unmoving.Why did she return?Alistair had imagined Ember coming back to him too many times to count. Now that she was here, real, he was stricken with doubt. Tugging his hands through his dark curls, Alistair resisted the urge to u...
His face was world-weary and his every movement stilted by frustration. At least he was telling her it was about the mission and nothing else. He didn’t bring up the training session. Neither did she.“It’s not your fault he got away,” Adne told Connor. “Logan’s always been slippery. Saving his ow...
Dante, InfernoTWELVE“WHAT?” MY QUESTION emerged as a hoarse whisper. “Her brother?” Shay gaped. “You mean Ansel?” “I didn’t get a name,” Adne said. “Why are you stil standing there? Come on!” I snapped out of my shock and bolted for the door. Adne was already running down the hal . I could hear S...
Then he poured himself another.“Quite a lovely thing, our lady Morrow, is she not?” Wine dribbled from one corner of his wide lips. He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand.Eira murmured her agreement, wondering when this boor of a man would leave her to the pressing work she was neglecting s...
SHAY asked as we walked out of Big Ideas. “Outlining this essay.” I tapped my notebook. “I’m starting to fall behind because of . . . everything.” “Can I come over?” he asked, holding up his full page of notes. “We could do it together.” “I don’t think it would be a great idea for you to be at my...
The screams hadn’t stopped.Rabbie was squirming in Jean’s tight grip. At three years old, her brother was too young to understand why staying quiet was so necessary, especially when he was too frightened to stop moving. Rabbie wanted their mother, but Jean knew that wasn’t possible. Their mother ...
