I really enjoyed the story in this one, but the writing was just... not there. And the ending was really messy and sudden. What would have been a great cliffhanger was overshadowed by a failed and sloppy delivery. It feels like it could go through another draft or two. Still, I did enjoy the story e...

Runes was a quick, fun, easy read. I found the use of Norse mythology really interesting and unique. I hadn’t come across it in a YA book before and it was fun to see how it was weaved into the storyline.

Review: 4 out of 5 stars I absolutely adore Ednah Walters The Guardian Legacy series so I was eager to jump into Runes which is a story filled with mythology, romance and intriguing mystery. Seventeen year-old Lorraine ‘Raine’ Cooper has a bit on her plate, her father has been missing for a few mont...

Surprisingly good. Wasn't sure what to expect with this one, as while it sounded good, it also sounded a very familiar story, but once I started...I couldn't put it down. Raine's coping with ordinary teenage life and finally owning up to feelings for the boy who's been her best friend forever, and...
