I hadn't intended to marathon the books in this series but fortuitously I was able to get my hands on them only weeks apart. Therefore, I decided to lump them all together in one masterpost. You're welcome! Rather than showing the covers for the books, I've opted to give you a glimpse of the illustr...
Mythic to a large degree this is an interesting read. Prue goes after her brother who has been kidnapped by crows into the Wildwood where no-one goes in Portland, but she finds that she can go, and her friend Curtis comes with her, they both find that everything is not as they assumed and that thin...
A Chapter Book for ChildrenWhat an adventure -- and a well characterized one at that! -- lots of folk to attach to and lots to dislike. Overall rating -- excellent! Would have given 5 stars if it had included the end of the story --but since I did not know that it was a series and there was no hint ...
This chapter book for children features feisty, intelligent Prue. She is searching for her baby brother who has been kidnapped by crows. Curse those evil crows! A friend of hers, Curtis, invites himself along and together they enter the supposedly impassable wilderness of Wildwood where they meet ...
I have been reading this book on and off. For some reason, while the story is good, the book couldn't keep my attention for more than a few pages at a time.Also I really disliked the Curtis parts. I loved to read about Prue's journey, but Curtis... no thank you.Overall this was a good book, the stor...
Before anyone chalks this rating up to me being prejudiced against kids' books, I would like to preface this by saying I started this book with a really open mind. And apparently I'm not the only one who found this book tedious. The action was slow, the characters bordered on outright cliche and s...
When I first started reading this book, I tried really hard not to compare it to Jim Henson's Labyrinth. Girl doesn't pay attention to her baby brother, he gets kidnapped, and she has to go into a dangerous, magical world to save him. But I figured I'd give it a chance....and then the talking coyote...
A pesar de que la nota en GR va a ser de 3 en la reseña del blog seguramente será 3,5/5. El libro está bastante bien, está lleno de magia peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeero hay un par de aspectos que al final se quedan un poco perdidos en el limbo de los "y-no-te-enterarás-jamás" y el ritmo general es un poquito l...
There were still a few parts where my reaction was: "Really? [Insert Trope Here]?" But it was still enjoyable, still a bit twee, still wonderfully written.Once I got past those darn tropes, I was much more interested in Elsie and Rachel's story vs Curtis and Prue's, which felt very familiar. Also, t...
“So what do I do now?” asked Prue. ”My brother was kidnapped by birds. My friend was captured by coyotes… And I nearly forgot: My bike is broken. Sounds like a country song. If country songs were really, really weird.”After Prue’s baby brother is kidnapped by a murder of crows, she and her frien...
