This book fell into a trap. The trap of predictability! I thought a non YA book would save me. I thought wrong. Foiled.Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy it. What can I say, I've grown attached to some of the characters. But everytime some earth shattering event was about to take place, I knew what it ...
Hmmm. I'm sitting here trying to gather my thoughts and the main feeling that is coming through is disappointment. I'm disappointed Mead allowed her ends to justify the means. She knew where she wanted the book to end and drove Eugenie towards that point, no matter how unlikable it made her in the...
4.5*I didn't expect to like this so much! It was amazing.What I liked:Dorian: even if he is a conniving bastard, at least he is a loving oneJasmine: she was very refreshing, you can always know what she wantssecondary charactersEugenie: sometimes she can be a normal person, even though she is a very...
Iron Crowned—Book three in the Dark Swan series by Richelle MeadThis book kind of pissed me off. I will admit that I only got to page 317 of the full 375 before just skimming the rest to decide if it was worth trusting the story. From what I could summarize, it was not. Much cursing ensued, but i...
I'm not sure what to think of this series.I think that Richelle Mead is sitting at home going 'How can I f*ck with my fans, giving them some and then ripping it back, then giving them some more, then RIPPING IT BACK.' I like Mead's characters. They are all unique, but this is the first time that I f...
3.5 Stars... Not sure what to say about this book. This is not my favorite Mead series by any means but I just have to know how this series ends... Dorian or Kiyo? Not sure if either of them is good for Euginie. Better review to come.
This story kept my interest but by the end I can't really say that I liked any of the main characters or the direction the story seems to be going. I think the next book is the last in the series so I may read it just to see how it ends but if it's not the last I don't think I'll be keeping up with...
I'm torn on this one. I enjoyed it while I was reading and want to give it 4 stars, but when I reflect back on the story itself, it wasn't as great as I thought. Plus, to be honest, I think a lot of people will just find it average. It's a fun read, but it won't be memorable. I'm okay with that beca...
A short recap of Thorn Queen events are under the spoiler alert. At the end of the Thorn Queen, Eugenie had "taken over" the Thorn lands and must return to the Otherworld periodically to recharge herself and her lands. Kiyo has failed her and she dumped him for King Dorian of the Oak Lands. At th...
I'm listening to the audiobook and also have the paperback. I usually read the book first and then listen to it, but I'm doing the opposite for this book. Lots of changes for Eugenie and not all good. Dorian hides a big part of the reason for a quest Eugenie is sent on and she can't live with the...
