Muddled, Mystified & Marvelous Musings
Scott Westerfeld comes up with a fascinating new world in his Midnighters series. It's a brilliant concept to begin with, and one that only Westerfeld could ever have come up with. This book was a sci-fi book that had an everyday, relatable, twist to it and that would be enjoyed by everyone. I enjoy...

La storia di per sè non è male, ma i personaggi sono troppo stereotipati. La protagonista, Jessica Day, è l'incarnazione della Mary Sue, bellissima, amata da tutti ( possibile che tutti notano di notte e senza nessuna luce che lei si è truccata? quel pezzo mi ha fatta ridere e non era sicuramente vo...

I LOVE this series. Although the Uglies/Pretties/Specials/Extras series is more popular, I actually like this series better. It's about five teenagers who are the only people that can move during "the secret hour", when everything else in their town freezes at midnight. Although a bit weird, the sto...

Is 5 stars too high? I cannot think of one thing I didn't like about this book. It's just, I don't know. Have I ever read a book without finding at least one thing I didn't like about it? Seriously I think this is a first. Do we want to commemorate this occasion somehow? Good book. I enjoyed it.
