Picking up a different kind I read, I enjoyed this book far more than I expected.1. Historical. I love the way the historical history of the book weaves in the plot. It gives the book a feel of a different world that you simply can’t resist entering.2. Iron Mask. The fact that this girl had to wear ...
Though the beginning was slow, the story still managed to hold my interest. All was going well until the end, which felt rushed. I just feel it could have been better executed. Some things that were happening towards the end made little sense to me, and then too much was happening in so few pages. T...
Ironskin is a clever re-telling of Jane Eyre with a delicious heaping tablespoon of faerie thrown in. Since [b:Jane Eyre|10210|Jane Eyre|Charlotte Brontë|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327867269s/10210.jpg|2977639] is tied for my favorite book of all time, I definitely loved that about this book. I...
Wow! I didn't expect to get as hooked in the story as I did. I'd picked Ironskin up a while ago and had to stop reading it because of school so I was glad to finally get the chance to finish it, and I really enjoyed it! :D I loved the mystery aspect and I loved the whole fey and dwarvven mythologies...

I loved reading about Jane and Dorie interacting and was curious to see how Dorie's conflict would be res...
I wanted to love this book… I wanted to shout from the mountain tops and praise this book and its gorgeous cover! And though I did enjoy various parts of Ironskin by Tina Connolly, there was just something missing. Fey? Okay, it got my attention. A fey war against humans? Mmmhmmm, more of my att...
As you all probably know, I'm a girl that's easily impressed by a pretty cover. Don't know why, I just love a cover that catches my eye and makes me want to read the book without even checking the blurb. So it shouldn't surprise you that the moment I saw the cover for Ironskin I wanted to read that ...
Set in a alternate-history Britain, Jane Eliot, the MC, wears an iron mask over half of her face to protect others from the curse she holds there. In the last fey war she had been hit with shrapnel from exploding fey magic, like many others, but unfortunately her injury is much more visible which ca...
Review originally posted on Parajunkee's ViewPJV Quickie: Ironskin was a charming book to read if you looked past some of the obvious problems within the plot and the character building. I did enjoy the details and the anxiety within the book, along with the main character and her charming ward, yet...
