Really awesome book! It took me a few chapters to get into it, but once I did, I could not stop reading. I like the dragons in this book, because they're so different from dragons in other books, and they also made Goredd a really interesting kingdom. It is written in a way that you feel as if you are there with the characters, which definitely added to the amazingness of this book. Seraphina is amazing, and is one of my favourite main characters I've read about in a while.Really awesome book! It took me a few chapters to get into it, but once I did, I could not stop reading.

This series is one of the best I have ever read! The books are so interesting, and I love all the characters! I wish there had been more answers as to what happened after the book ends, but I guess that wouldn't really follow the whole 'secret ' thing in the series. And I liked how I could imagine my own ending, the way I want it. I thought this book was really funny at some parts, and I love how PB just interrupts the story randomly sometimes. This is a great book, and I can't wait for Bad Magic, and hopefully, there will be a few answers there. Probably not.This series is one of the best I have ever read!

I thought Unhinged was a great way to carry on the Splintered story. The characters are great, and I felt as if I knew them. I really like this version of Wonderland A.G. Howard has created. It's creepy, but you could actually see it being real (well, I can, at least). There is a love triangle, so if you like them, you would probably like the trilogy. I liked how there was a cliff hanger at the end. I just like cliff hangers. Unhinged is a really good book, and I can't wait for Ensnared next year!I thought Unhinged was a great way to carry on the Splintered story. The characters are great, and I felt as if I knew them.

This was an amazing end to the Selection trilogy! I couldn't stop reading, and when it ended, I wanted more. There were no disappointments, although I do wish some things had ended differently. There are a few plot twists which made The One so much more amazing! This really was a great series!This was an amazing end to the Selection trilogy!

I liked Divergent, then Insurgent was pretty good but then I read Allegiant and it ruined the whole series for me. I don't even know what happened. I didn't like how the POV switched because it didn't in the first two books. It's a trilogy, so it should be done the same. I don't want to ruin the book for anyone who hasn't read it, so I'll just say that the plot was terrible. I liked the dystopian world with the factions, but then it's like 'hahaha. just kidding, it's not real'. And the whole thing about who her mom was, was just weird. And I hated the ending. It was just so different from the other two books. Divergent was like when Tris was competing to be Dauntless and then Insurgent was the war. I don't even know what Allegiant was. It was not necessary to make that the end. Having just the two books would have been plenty. It was VERY disappointing.I liked Divergent, then Insurgent was pretty good but then I read Allegiant and it ruined the whole series for me. I don't even know what happened.

I'd wanted to read this book forever, and when I finally did, I was not disappointed at all. Persephone is a slave, but is then rescued by Azriel, a gypsy. Azriel takes her to the gypsy camp, and is told that she is part of a prophecy that states she will help bring the foretold Gypsy King into power. Meanwhile, the Regent Mordecai of Erok is plotting to overthrow the current king and wants to wipe the gypsies out of existence. The characters are really well developed and relatable, and I is a great book. I can't wait to read A Fool's Errand next!I'd wanted to read this book forever, and when I finally did, I was not disappointed at all. Persephone is a slave, but is then rescued by Azriel, a gypsy.

This is my absolute favourite series ever! It's full of magyk and has amazing characters and is completely addicting! There are no words to do this series justice. Magyk is the first in the Septimus Heap series and had me hooked on page one. If you like magic, wizards and spells, you would definitely love this book!This is my absolute favourite series ever!

I read this series because I was such a big fan of the Hunger Games, and was amazed. Gregor and his sister find themselves in the Underland, a world beneath New York City and find their way to Regalia, the city where the Underlanders live. They discover that Gregor is to take part in a string prophecies that claims he is the foretold warrior who will save Regalia. The characters are all awesome, and the whole series was perfect. I would definitely recommend this series to fans of the Hunger Games and Percy Jackson!I read this series because I was such a big fan of the Hunger Games, and was amazed.

Splintered is a story with a twisted version of Wonderland. Alyssa Gardner must solve the mystery and break the curse behind her family's past occurrences in Wonderland. Love this book! It was similar to fairy tale re-tellings, but with a darker, creepier twist. Would definitely recommend it!Splintered is a story with a twisted version of Wonderland.

Grave Mercy was pretty good. At the beginning, I kind of felt lie it was rushed. I would have liked if there were a few more chapters setting up what she was Ismae was learning at the convent and explaining more about the time period. But overall it was a good read and would recommend it.Grave Mercy was pretty good. At the beginning, I kind of felt lie it was rushed.

This is a great book! It's about 3 sisters who are witches in a society ruled by the Brotherhood. Women are considered lesser than men and witches are considered to be evil. Before the last Terror, the oracle gave a prophecy saying that 3 sisters will either cause a second Terror or cause the witches to rise again. There isn't a lot of action in the book, but I don't think that took away from the story at all. If you prefer more action, you probably wouldn't like this book, but it's still a great story. I'm really looking forward to reading the next one!This is a great book! It's about 3 sisters who are witches in a society ruled by the Brotherhood.

To be honest, I expected more from this book. I would have preferred it if it focused more on returning the stolen things, as opposed to Jeff and Sera's relationship. I didn't like Sera, so that ruined the book a bit for me. I liked it in the beginning, before Jeff started dating Sera. Overall, it was a good book, but wasn't what I thought it would be.To be honest, I expected more from this book.

I thought Underworld was better than Abandon. I really liked how it leaves you hanging at the end. I liked how you find out about John's past I can't wait for book 3!

I really liked this book. It really grabs your attention from the start. I liked how there were real photos throughout the book and how it leaves you hanging at the end.
