There are often books that play on stereotypes. Some of them do so cleverly, exaggerating the stereotype into comedy or twisting it into a subtler or subverted rendition. I was really hoping that this book would be something like that when I picked it up. Unfortunately, it was exactly as the author ...

This is the first book in the series. It kind of has the Harry Potter feel in the since that it continues the story through to the next book.. It leaves you hanging until you get to the next one. I am more of a romance reader and like my stories to end at the end of the book. With that said I am st...

Despite the silly love triangles, which do get a little irradiating at times, I still really love this book series. Having read the third book of the series first, The Girl with the Iron Touch, I think I've just ignored the on-again-off-again flirtations between all the characters, because by the th...

Not the most derivative of steampunk. Quite enjoyed the world building, and the characters. Author relied a little too heavily on love triangles to build tension and I had very little interest in the Sam/Emily subplot (Why do they like each other???) and little patience for Sam in general, but it ke...

Wren and Lark Noble are twins and are identical in every way except two; their hair color and ability to breathe. Wren was stillborn and thus is a rarity among her ghostly kind. She has a special connection to her sister Lark and together they can do and see things that most people, dead or alive, c...

My paperback copy of this book contained the prequel, The Strange Case of Finley Jayne, as well as The Girl in the Steel Corset 2 stars for The Strange Case... and 3 stars for The Girl in... I wasn't sure what to expect with this. It isn't my usual sort of read, though I have read quite a few st...

After five books and numerous novellas, Kady Cross’ Steampunk Chronicles finally come to an end. This rocky series has seen its share of ups-and-downs. Weak subplots, rushed action, and fairly one-dimensional characters make up a majority of the stories. Yet, there is something entertaining about Fi...

Czy można połączyć stal, dziwne moce i XIX wiek w jednej książce? Jak widać można, a idealnym tego przykładem jest książka Kady Cross "Dziewczyna w stalowym gorsecie". Jednakże nie zawsze takie połączenie może oznaczać coś dobrego. W przypadku tej książki mam mieszane uczucia, ponieważ z jednej stro...

I enjoyed it and I'll read the rest of the series (provided they don't turn into absolute crap) because I thought it was pretty fun, regardless of silly plot points and some annoying character quirks.Some of those silly plot points were painfully predictable [spoiler] Leonardo? Garibali being the ...

When my wife's friend recommended this series to us, I didn't even notice it was published by Harlequin Teen until I was well into the first (and best) of the series. By contrast, I don't think there was a page in this one that didn't scream Harlequin, Teen, or both. Still, I'd enjoyed this X-Men ...
