A witch is a "woman practicing sorcery." The Oxford English Dictionary explains that sorcery is the "supposed art of influencing [the] course of events by occult control of nature or of spirits, witchcraft." By definition a witch, differs from a sorcerer, in that they do not use physical tools or ac...
Superfast read with some interesting ideas, but wasn't up to the usual levels of brilliance that I appreciate in Westerfeld novels... not sure if it's because it was a 3-person cowrite, or just that it suffered from second-in-a-trilogy syndrome... Could be the dark & depressing set-up-the-final-boo...
I received the ARC from Netgalley. Thanks, Netgalley! I guess this averages out to 3.5? I'm too tired to do the math so a 3 it is. Holy crap this book took half my life to read. It says it was only 432 pages long but I Do NOT Believe It. There are sooo many stories. Too many stories. No one need...
So I really love zombies. And I also think unicorns are pretty cool. Therefore, I really thought I would enjoy this anthology. However, reading it was really a struggle for me. I really didn't like the first few stories. They all had the same problems which were that they were too long, very dull,...
Standout stories in this collection are: Valente's Badgirl, The Deadman, And the Wheel of Fortune, which I initially thought ended poorly but has continued to haunt me long after I finished the story. Seasons of Glass and Iron by Amal El-Mohtar, which takes two fairy tales and combines them into an ...
Heroes, not Zeroes.This book reminded me of the show, Heroes. All the characters had various powers from seseeing through anothers' eyes to changing the mood of a crowd. With these powers, they tried using them for the greater good. In this case though, it was to save their own from the mess he was ...
I hadn't heard of Zeroes before, how I don't know, but I jumped at the chance to read it for free on RivetedLit.com. I've loved Scott Westerfeld's previous work, but had never heard of Margo Lanagan or Deborah Biancotti. Now I'm really curious about their work and plan on checking it out Soon™. Zero...
I didn't want this one to end! It was action packed, witty and had a cast of characters that you can't help but love! I'm ready for another installment.
As per usual, a book that is over 500 pages is just too long. Especially considering this is the start of another series, and sigh, I'm tired of series in young adult literature. While overall, I enjoyed Zeroes there were too many characters and everything happened because of one selfish, stupid act...
(GR is doing that thing again, where my review only shows up for the one version of the book. Reposting.)Within these pages you will meet six unique teens.Nate/Bellwether(aka Glorious Leader) has the ability to bend the will of crowds, to make them follow him.Chizara/Crash can crash anything electro...
