The Girl On The Dock: A Dark Fairy Tale (2008) - Plot & Excerpts
I though I would read this book as many consider it the 2.5 in the James potter series which I have quite enjoyed. I have to say though, I came away feeling a bit unsettled and unsatisfied. The book itself was a good read, however the character progression for me was a bit difficult to follow. I also don't think it would be able to be fully understood without reading the Harry and James potter series. This was a really quick and enthralling read. Lippert takes the character of Petra Morganson and delves deeper into who she is. I am excited to see how powerful she can become. The introduction of the little sister also provided the reader with a little more understanding of who Petra is. I give the author many kudos for keeping me guessing throughout the book. I am almost NEVER surprised by the endings of movies or books, and while I knew what Petra would ultimately choose, I enjoyed the guess work a long the way. I had no problem paying the 4.99 for this iBook, as I have truly enjoyed everything in the series so far, and I truly believe he deserves recognition for his amazing work. I've read that this novel isn't a mandatory read before you get the the third James potter book, but I'm glad I did. I have a feeling it will definitely give me a one up. I am looking forward to tomorrow morning; a nice cup of earl grey, a foggy morning here in England, and The next James potter book in the series.
