Mini Reviews: A Darker Shade of Magic, A Gathering of Shadows, Him

Posted June 8, 2016 by Wendy in Mini Reviews, Reviews / 2 Comments

I loved this one! It was really everything that I love in fantasy. It was so unique with all the different Londons and I absolutely loved watching them unfold and learning more about each one and the magic involved and that was intrinsic to each. Besides the uniqueness of the magic, I absolutely loved the characters. We have Kell, who can travel between Londons, who has a fabulous coat with many, many, layers and is adopted into the royal family because […]

My Thoughts: If you haven’t read any Aven Ellis before, you need to remedy that! Aven Ellis is my go-to for a sweet, funny, feel good romance. She writes the best stories and I especially do love the banter! Meet Livy. She’s an aspiring artist and is not looking for love due to a bad break up in college. She has her art, her best friend, and TriviaPlayorPass, a super addicting trivia phone game. She’s been playing with an […]

On a trip, she accidentally switches phones with a stranger and hops on her flight before she notices. For the […]

The Sound: I was not a fan of the narrator. There was this odd lilting tone that made it sound like the MC was super whiny all the time. During the voices for other characters, it was fine but since the book is in first person, all the inner dialogue and well, everything when other people weren’t talking, just GRATED on me. So… maybe I wouldn’t have disliked this book as much if it weren’t for the narrator? Perhaps. But […]

Review: First & Then by Emma Mills

Why Did I Read? This book is pitched as Friday Night Lights meets Pride and Prejudice. Why, hello, two things I love! If you didn’t know, I have a Football Friday feature and also have an undying love of football as well as of Mr. Darcy. It’s a wonder I even waited this long to read this book! My Thoughts: I really, really loved this one, you guys! So Devon is your average high school senior — she’s trying to […]
