THIS STORY ISN'T THE END OF THIS INTERMINABLE MESS? UGH! The writing favors form over substance, and while I don't mind flowery writing if there isn't anything to back up the beauty it becomes a horrible mess. And that is the best word to describe this book, a mess. It's jumpy and uncoordinated. The...

Cobweb Bride, the first in this series, was one of my 2013 favourite reads.In fact, it probably was my "favourite read of them all".I fell head over heels about everything in it: The characters _especially the beginning of the relationship between Percy and the Black Knight _, the setting, the plot,...

SOS is doing another round of BINGO, but this is freebie-only and we're doing two shelves a week. The BINGO spaces are based off of letters in the title/series/author name so it's less restrictive, except for the fact they have to be free. Still, a fun way to get through all those godforsaken freebi...

It's a little bittersweet to be reading the final book of this series already, but I'm kind of glad too. I like knowing how many books there are in a series before I start reading. This book is a trilogy so I knew just from the series name, Cobweb Bride Trilogy, that there would only be three book...

I liked this one more then the first book in the series (Cobweb Bride), although I think that's more because of first book syndrome - you don't know who anyone is or what the world is like. I'm not sure what to think about the relationship between Percy and Beltain (the Black Knight). There are...

I really expected Percy to be the Cobweb Bride. Spoilers already! She isn't, but I really expected her to be, especially after the whole her name is Persephone and she was a Goddess loved by the God of the underworld (who they think was Death). I hadn't thought about her name being Persephone unt...

WIN AN EBOOK COPY OF COBWEB EMPIRE (see end of post) Taking place soon after the events of Cobweb Bride, this volume is once again a magnificent tribute to the art of fine writing, showcasing the author's unparalleled imagination. Taking place on a grander scale that the one presented in Cobweb ...

Do you ever regret giving 5 stars to the first book of a series, not because it doesn't deserve it, but because the second book is even better and you have no way to make the rating reflect that? Because that's the case here. I absolutely LOVED Cobweb Bride, I think I ended up making myself somew...

I have literally no idea what to make of this book. It just….I don’t know. The idea behind it was just so interesting and intriguing. I read the synopsis and thought, wow this sounds so good. And it just wasn’t. It had its good points to be sure, which is why I gave it two stars but at the end I was...

Another Read It Now snagged from Netgalley. A beautifully written fairytale.Though I must admit, at a few points, I nearly gave up with it. While on the one hand the language the story was written in was beautiful, vivid and poetic, the pace of the plot was very very slow. Meandering and dream like ...
