You have a number of uncertainties in your melt right now. But they will always be there in one form or another. Always. Unlike molten glass, life can't ...

Unfortunately not as good as I had hoped, nor as good as the other series attached to this one, the Study Series. My reasoning for this is mainly based on the characters, when you have friends like these who needs enemies? I don't understand how she called any of these people her friends, and her lo...

It was fantastic to be in this world again. This book is a spin off of Maria V. Snyder's Study series. Some characters from that series appeared in this one and it was amazing. I loved reading from the point of view of a magician who is very different from Yelena. It was a great story and I can'...

After I have had time to calm my frustrated rage-y thoughts, I've decided that while I'm only in a frustrated and disappointed phase now, the Glass series by Maria V. Snyder is definitely NOT my favorite of the series she has written. It doesn't change the fact that I was addicted to the series fo...

I really wanted to like this book more than I did. And some parts, I truly loved. The magic system and the world building are great. The characters and the story, however, didn't pull me in the way I was hoping. I didn't realize until much, much later that this book is a spin off of another series...

I'm disappointed. I loved Poison Study so I know that Snyder's writing can work for me and I was curious about Opal in the Study book she appeared in. But there were too many plots. Stormdancers and their mystery, the return to school, the fake diamonds and the possible political plots and connectio...
