Underworld part 4

Ok now who doesn't love this series?  I just hope that they do a great job continuing the storyline.  Instead of killing it like a  lot of movies they should have just started and finished with one.

I can't wait to see what they have in store for Selene and her new daughter.  My only real question which Selene asks in they teaser is WHERE IS MICHAEL???

Glow

Glow by Amy Kathleen Ryan

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


Ok so I’m torn between giving this book two to three stars. I’ve heard that this book is like The Hunger Games, which I hope that it isn’t.

This book in a lot of ways was very godly. Very preachy and I’m not into that. It had a very intense message and was very political.

At the beginning of the book I was drawn in and I really liked it. Yet, as the story progressed it had parts that were written for the teen crowd then others that seemed would have been better suited for a children’s book.

The book also jumped POV, which made it a very slow and irritating read. The books love triangle didn’t really make much sense as Seth has done things that are not redeemable and Kieran and Waverly spent most of the book separated. So it made it very hard to become a fan of either love interest. It all felt very detached.

By the end of the book I couldn’t pick a team Kieran or Seth. And most of the time it felt like it was every person for themselves.

This book is listed as a book 1, so I guess unless I’m sent an ARC of the book 2. It will not be flying across my part of space.

Giving it a second chance

Circle Nine

Circle Nine by Anne Heltzel

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


This book was so weird. I read a few reviews and just couldn't finish it. I skipped to the end and read some of that and I must say that was a very very odd book. I always try very hard to finish a book no matter how bad it is but this one I just couldn't 10 pages in and I was wondering what was going on with it.

#BookRecommendation: The Iron King (The Iron Fey #1) by @jkagawa

Synopsis: Meghan Chase has a secret destiny; one she could never have imagined.

Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan's life, ever since her father disappeared before her eyes when she was six. 

She has never quite fit in at school or at home.

When a dark stranger begins watching her from afar, and her prankster best friend becomes strangely protective of her, Meghan senses that everything she's known is about to change.

But she could never have guessed the truth - that she is the daughter of a mythical faery king and is a pawn in a deadly war. 

Now Meghan will learn just how far she'll go to save someone she cares about, to stop a mysterious evil, no faery creature dare face; and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart.

#BookReview for The Strange Case of Finley Jayne (Steampunk Chronicles 0.5) by @AlterKates

Synopsis: Finley Jayne knows she's not 'normal'. 

Normal girls don't lose time, or have something inside them that makes them capable of remarkably violent things. 

Her behavior has already cost her one job, so when she's offered the lofty position of companion to Phoebe, a debutante recently engaged to Lord Vincent, she accepts, despite having no experience. 

Lord Vincent is a man of science with his automatons and inventions, but Finley is suspicious of his motives where Phoebe is concerned. 

She will do anything to protect her new friend, but what she discovers is even more monstrous than anything she could have imagined.
