I really enjoyed it! It was an interesting read. It was a little different than the other books I've read. It was quite refreshing!The storyline, and the characters were carefully thought out, and well written. The author did a great job! I haven't picked up the next book yet, but it is on my lis...
Very refreshing to read a book about something new--sylphs! or wind elementals. I really enjoyed this book, especially the humor, and something was always happening to keep me reading onward. I looooove the cover. Also I'm intrigued by the recipe for breakfast "torpedoes," which I'm going to have...
4.5GOODNESS GRACIOUS THIS WAS A DANG GOOD BOOK. Okay. This was a total on-a-whim, never-heard-of, don't-know-what-it's-about book. So I went into it with zero expectations and completely blind. Actually, that was a lie. Partly. After seeing that 4.40 rating I was like oh my gosh what even I must ...
This book is something every teenager should read because it has many exciting event and is mind blowing in many different ways. In the story "Keeper of the Lost Cities" by Shannon Messenger, there are many different extraordinary things. Sophie, a 12 year old prodigy never fit in. She had no f...
Es el segundo libro de Shannon que leo, y he descubierto que lo que me pasa cuando lo hago es que me divierto tanto durante todo el libro, que cuando llegan los últimos capítulos me parece que todo pasa demasiado rápido y que le harían falta unos cuantos capítulos más.Es cruel que haga eso, porqu...
Ah, I had high expectations and was not disappointed. I was also elated to find more Keefe and Sophie moments :). Once I received my copy I was thinking about the book all during school, whether trying to figure out the mystery or just waiting to go home and continue. Shannon has really improved ...
I’ve been tired before. Been beaten up before. Shoot, I survived a tornado—and even though I don’t remember what happened, I remember every ache and pain in the days that followed. But I’ve never experienced anything like this.I feel empty. Like everything that makes me me oozed out my ears, leav...
I say as I stare at the spinning blades. I know it’s a dumb thing to say, but . . . I don’t see how we’re supposed to survive this. Seventeen fans, spinning so fast they look like a solid wall of metal. “What about the trick you just used?” I ask Solana. I’m guessing she blasted us out of the oub...
I thought that was why Audra spent so much time ruining my dates and turning me into a huge joke at school—and why it took so freaking long to convince her to finally kiss me. And yet, Audra doesn’t seem nearly as surprised by this revelation as I am. If anything she looks . . . worried. “Is that...
Dex and Biana were smart enough not to ask what was going on. Keefe disappeared into his room the second he was done eating. The rest of them moved to the boys’ common room to work. Dex was hammering tiny stone wheels—apparently he and Blur had decided that was the best way to add them to the Twi...
Endal?” Master Leto asked, pointing to his badge for emphasis. Wylie’s skin wasn’t as dark as his father’s, and his features were sharper. But their eyes were the same. Same shape. Same piercing blue. And they looked just as sad and lost as he told Sophie, “I need to talk ...
“Do you know what these trees are called?” he asked, pointing to the mammoth trunks all around them. Burnt sienna bark braided up to the hunter green leaves, which fanned out like paintbrushes. “No,” Sophie admitted. She’d seen them around—there were even a few at Havenfie...
