This was a hard decision on whether I would give it a 3 or a 4 star rating but in the end, the overall of the book won a 4. It took me a while to finish this (again, I am beginning to delay in reading) when I began since October and now its December already! Anyway, once again I love how the world b...
MWT is a master of sleight-of-hand. Storytelling skills to the level that you'll follow her dubiously likable characters through endless bewildering micro adventures until everything settles into clarity with the grand reveal at the end. Great interiority, great insight into the characters' minds an...
As sequels goes, its not easy to do a good follow up. The King of Attolia did not out done the previous book but it manages to stay at its form, which to me, has done pretty much expected after The Queen of Attolia. Once again, I fell in love more of the world of The Queen's Thief series and once ag...
Sequels are not an easy read, especially if the author able to write better than the first book. When I read The Thief, I read without any expectations but based upon reviews after reviews from other readers. It is a book that is well-written, filled with a historical universe created rich with myth...
I love a good fantasy historical stories. There wasn't any thing that interest me that is simple and enjoyable (although I know there are some good historical fiction novels that are good) but there is one that caught my attention that has a simple title - The Thief by Megan Whalen Turner. What was ...
Ah! I'm so mad! But in a good way... I waited seven years for this book and then read it in about a day and now I just have to wait some more for the sixth book. Also the book was really good. Like, yes, it's a standalone story (-ish), but I still got really invested in it and it was almost as g...
I legit thought the whole book was the events of the first third of the book. I have no idea how I managed to forget so much of this story. But that was great for the reread because it was like reading it for the first time. The ending does make me mad that Thick as Thieves is a standalone story. ...
Every time I reread this book I'm shocked that I loved it so much as a kid (-ish... I was ~14 the first time I read it?). It's a lot of things I don't really like in books but Turner is such a good author I don't even care. If you haven't read this series yet, get off the internet, get yourself a ...
There are several books in my life that I love but am always afraid to reread. Because there's no way they're actually as good as I remember. But I'm always wrong (thank goodness). It's difficult to talk about this book. I don't want to spoil anything for anyone, so I'll just say The Thief is a gr...
I was drawn to read The Thief because Iād heard amazing things about its sequel, The Queen of Attolia, and I wanted to get into the series and see what everyone was so excited about.The Thief is the story of a ā you guessed it ā thief named Gen who is forced into using his considerable talent agains...
