I enjoyed this book. It was a fun, quick read with a new take on the Arthurian legends. I enjoyed the characters quite a lot. Bizzy, in particular, was a driving force that kept me interested and involved. Lizzy was a well written teenage character trying to deal with outrageous circumstances, a...
Oh my gosh, I don't know if I can say just how much I loved this book! The story was really good, but besides that, with it being my first year teaching 7th grade English, specifically about plots and narrative writing, I loved the titles of the chapters, and how the protagonist or main character e...

I found myself really into the book as soon as I started it. I adored the Otherworldly and the way it is written. I have never come across a book like this before. Fast pace, gripping, and very engaging, I am in love with this author, Ms. Kolger. The book is not at all what I was expecting. Instead ...

This was a book intended for MG kids and the protagonists were younger than the ones I usually read. However, this did not detract from my overall enjoyment of the book though I did need a moment to re-situate myself. Fern is weird. At least in comparison to the other students of her grade. She wear...
Looking at style and content alone, this is much closer to a 3 starI liked the general idea, the various families of vampires, the references to Greek gods and mythological terms, etc. I liked the family dynamics. Still, I got bored reading it. The pacing was an issue for me, too slow at points. The...
I had a hard time getting into this book. There have been a lot of vampire books gaining popularity recently, and I like many others, have found myself wanting to read them all. This book had great potential to be a wonderful read, but I believe it fell short. The story was extremely slow moving,...
Honestly, I was both pleased and disappointed with this book. Upon reading the description, I was thinking it was going to be a super powers/heroes kinda book. Unfortunately, it was just another book about vampires. (Don't get me wrong, I love vampire books, but this genre has gotten so flooded with...
I noticed my old review was rather lame and lacked capitalization/spelling/punctuation/etc. so I'm just going to edit it a bit. Hooray.Well, I can tell you now that a couple years after reading this, I barely remember a thing about it except for that I didn't enjoy it. I remember reading most of it ...
