I feel like everyone I know loved this book, but it was only a lukewarm okay for me. The first half of this book was very boring. I don't know if it was the book itself or more the narration, but it was a snoozefest. Obviously not boring enough for me to flounce, there was something that kept me wan...
Original review I don't know why, but I always relate dragon stories to action, war and bloodshed. Those are not bad things for me. I look for those things in a story. I don't mind goriness and bloodshed (in fiction that is. Whattya think I am, a psychopath?!) add to that a medieval setting, and I a...
I had heard amazing things about Seraphina and was totally psyched to read it. I mean high fantasy and dragons? Sign me up! Luckily Seraphina did not disappoint!I really, really liked this book. I mean the first line is "I remember my birth." Seriously? That line screams how good this book is going ...
Seraphina is…at once enjoyable and disappointing. And the only reason it’s disappointing is because it should have been more enjoyable, and I can’t quite figure out why it wasn’t. All the right elements were there. Everything that should have had me panting and coming back for more. In spite of ...
Stopped at page 178-The story moved so incredibly slow for me. Let’s be realistic, 178 pages is long enough for a book to hook you. I wouldn’t have normally read that much if I wasn’t enjoying the story. So many people loved this book so I gave it more of chance.-The premise of the story is very int...
I loved the uniqueness of the dragons - they had their own culture and behaviors that were entirely separate from humans. They weren't just humans with lizard skins. I also liked seeing the build up of all the various elements that were pulled together. There were a few threads of the story that wer...
I finally understand the rave reviews for this book. Gosh.I've never really read fantasy and this book just blew me away. Seraphina is so beautifully written and the world of Goredd is wonderfully crafted. I fell in love with almost all of the characters, especially Seraphina and Kiggs. Pardon me wh...
I don't want to say too much, because I'd like this review to be reasonably spoiler free. So here's a short list of what I loved about this book (followed by a shorter list of what I didn't love so much):1. Seraphina herself is amazingly realistic, for such a fantastic character, and amazingly likea...
What is there to like? ▪ Seraphina is a likeable heroine: brave, independent-minded, and compassionate--but not so much so that she seems false. ▪ In so many stories with a female protagonist and a romantic rival, the "competition" is petty, unkind, easily dismissed. But Glisselda holds her own as s...
