by Michelle Zink
There's definitely no sophomore slump for Michelle Zink with Guardian of the Gate! While I had a difficult time getting drawn into Prophecy of the Sisters (but ultimately enjoyed it), I was immediately hooked on this story. Perhaps that was because I was already familiar with what was going on from ...
This book started off at a slow pace but once it picked I couldn't put it down. To be honest, I found the first book in the series to be more exciting. But this book was still great! I bought the final book of the series right after finishing this one. The story line is great and I can't get enough....
I loved the growth that Lia, and the other characters have gone through. I love the Lia's perseverance, as well as the support system that she has. It's unfortunate that she has to go through this ideal, but I'm happy that Zink wrote it the way she did. I could not put this book down! It's a little ...
3.5 stars. Book 2 started off very slow. Too slow. But then it picked up with some nice twists to the story. Why not a higher rating? Lia's flip-flopping between strong powerful independent Sister and damsel in distress was annoying. Once again, I must remind myself of the period this takes place bu...
I found myself in amazement after reading this book. I had flew through it so quickly, that I hadn't even realized it! Now, that is some awesome writing! One thing I enjoyed about this book is getting to see everything from Lia's point of view. In this book, you don't really see things from Alice's ...
This was no where near as good as the very first book. To be honest, I was so confused as to what was going on, pretty much the entire time.I did not forget, persay, the entire first book, I remembered the gist of it, and the main twists and what not, how Edwardian and almost eerie the writing was. ...
I enjoyed this book immensely, and I was sad when it was over simply because it ended. I got really into it and I could hardly bring myself to put it down!~REVIEW TBC ASAP~
I would give this one 2 1/2 stars.I have mixed feelings about this book. While I didn't altogether dislike it, I was disappointed in the direction this one took. One thing I enjoyed about The Prophecy of the Sisters was that it was set in the 19th century. In this book, we pretty much leave that beh...
3.5 stars
The second novel in the Prophecy of the Sisters series is everything and more than what I was hoping. The magic that Zink created in her first novel is again presented in Guardian of the Gate.In this installment, Lia is on a journey. She must find that which has been lost in order to fulfill her pla...
