I was so surprised by how much I loved this book. This is the first book by Holly Black I’ve read and I have to say she really knows what she’s doing. She’s a master and crafting both character and plot into a page-turner. Well, not literally, in my case, since I was listening to the audiobook. Also...
I was not sure about Jesse Eisenberg as the narrator. He sounds so insecure at times so it was like Cassel was constantly in doubt. But I got uses to it as Cassel was pretty unsure about himself. Narration, seems it worked in the end then. Story. I think I dosed off in a vital part (don't I alwa...
I read “White Cat” fairly quickly. I thought it was an enjoyable read, hence the reason why I gave it four stars. Holly Black does a great job creating an alternative world where some people can kill, maim or steal your luck with a mere touch. These gifted individuals are known as curse workers. Som...
I'm going to start this off by saying thanks a million trillion for the option of half stars in ratings. I'm going to have to go back and re-rate every single book I've read.

This book has been on my TBR list since early this year and I decided to finally crack it open for my Tackle Your TBR Pile Read-a-thon. Lots of people have been going on and on about how great this book is and the series as a whole. In fact, many of my trusted book bloggers seem to like White Cat a ...
I don't know what it was about White Cat, but I really, really enjoyed it. Probably because of the cats. Not only did this book deal with cat(s), it also had fantastic worldbuilding and interesting characters. Curse Working is such a unique concept, and Holly Black did a really fantastic job introdu...
Surprisingly enjoyed myself with this one. Totally predictable but the likable character of Cassel made up for that. I will definitely continue the series to find out what happens.
What if there were people in the world who could work magic? What if it had consequences? What if your consequences could be deadly? What if people wore gloves all the time to avoid appearing to want to touch people to work magic? What if the use of this magic was banned and forced underground, lik...
