Ceres: essentially a goddess reborn on earth. Unstoppable reaper of vengeance. Protectress of children and celestial descendants. Absolute troll.All joking aside, this is the volume where the story finally starts to form a concrete direction to go in. After quickly finishing up Suzumi's backstory, t...
Uuuugh, the needless love triangle is at its absolute worst in this volume. I might have been forgiving of it in the first two books, but by this point it's just not fun and distracting from the actually interesting plot going on.First, there's Toya. Even ignoring the improbable rapid nature of thei...
In this volume, we learn more about Aya's superpowered alternate personality, who seems quite sweet when she's not pursuing the murderous revenge she's hellbent at achieving. Aya and her brother briefly reunite, but fate (and Ceres, for that matter) refuse to give either twin more than a moment of s...
After last week's disastrous reading experience, I felt I needed a palate cleanser. I also wanted to dip in to the "canon" of romance novels, and choose an older title that seemed to be a reader favorite. Finally, I love historical romance; contemporary is fun, but I often find that the cultural ref...
Book Links for this Review: Harlequin Blaze March 2014 Bundle Captivate Me, by Kira Sinclair I’m trying to alternate reviews of past/classic titles with more recent publications, so I’m not always behind the pack. That, and the fact that I’d never read any Harlequin titles and was curious about ...
Such a beautiful story, and undoubtedly superior to the original Fushigi Yuugi. The art is dazzling. The plot seems more mature than the original, and Takiko turns out to be a strong and very likeable heroine. Unlike Miaka, she doesn't let her feelings for Uruki define her life and her quest.The end...
Transphobic attitudes against Nuriko are not funny at all. And there were other issues I wasn't comfortable with either. But the plot has caught me anyway.
When I was a teen, I practically inhaled Watase's Fushigi Yuugi: The Mysterious Play series. Her character designs were so pretty it almost hurt to look at them, and I loved the mix of melodrama, fantasy, and complicated love stories. I've read several of her works since then, and Watase will probab...
Soooo, this book. I hated it the beginning and the second half was okay but not earth shattering. I think I went into it with higher than normal expectations and came out burned. This is story of a very hurt and bitter individual, Marquess of Dain, and Jessica Trent a determined spinster. Dain is...
Review:I have mixed feelings about the second volume of Ceres. On one hand, I love the legend of the Celestial Maiden. Ceres is tormented with rage and longs for revenge against the man who stole her feathered robes, prohibiting her from returning to heaven. Worse, he violated her, and she bore h...
