I know there are things like Nefari , gollum and Van Gogh but I barely know what their powers are or why they existed.
The author is going for a snarky heroine but she only comes across as annoying. Even the mystery wasn't that interesting. I do am interested in how Ashira and Levi's romance develop but I wouldn't want to read the next book...more

I think the conversation between chapters really add to the whole allure of the book. It took me few chapters in to finally guess that it is Taver telling Lilac about what happened to him that got him his medal and how its related to the crashing of Icarus.
I can't wait to see what happens next and how they gonna expose Lilac's dad...more

Tavre and Lilac landed on a foreign planet and they just walk and walk with no end in sight while I am here bored out of my mind. They argue and have a bit of sexual tension but its nothing that I really care about. Then Lilac started hearing things and seeing things. And she died. Its hard for me to know whats real and whats not real at that planet anymore because I really don't care about it.
The part where Tavre got question is interesting too and thats about it. ...more
Absentee mother who is obsessed with looks and looking for a new man... Check Two younger siblings ... ChecThis is very similar to Flowers in the Attic.
Absentee mother who is obsessed with looks and looking for a new man... Check Two younger siblings ... Check Incest.. Check
While Flowers in the Attic is more long and winded and more sinister. Forbidden is not. It was really straight forward overall and LOL I even predicted that (view spoiler)[ their mum will be the one walking in on them (hide spoiler)]. But what I didn't see coming is the tragic ending. Its sad that Lochie have to resort to this to make sure the family stay together...more

Thirteen Rising's ending is as generic as they come. This whole book could have been scrapped and just end it in Black Moon.
I know it gonna end in a fighting scene and I hate fighting scene. And I really got bored keep reading about Rho's wallowing in self pity and crying , crying over Nishi and everyone try to bring Rho out of her funk. ...more
Ever is the most boring protagonist ever. She went to Loveboat determined to loosen up , do something cSo boring at the beginning that I nearly DNF it
Ever is the most boring protagonist ever. She went to Loveboat determined to loosen up , do something crazy. Her and Sophie and a couple boys sneak out every night, drink snake wine , go clubbing etc etc. This part takes forever and I am getting sick of Ever keep telling us about her breaking the Wong rules and how another Wong rules bites the dust. We get it !! You don't have to keep repeating that to us. And oh don't forget the boring as hell dance description
The book starts to get interesting when they went to Aunt Clara's house. Then whole drama ensue which I am just all too happy about. The ending and the final performance at national theater is great. And thats why I bump it one star up...more
I find myself being so pissed off at the mum. My God Halley is 16 , gives her some freaking space. Kids This is kinda cute. A great coming of age book
I find myself being so pissed off at the mum. My God Halley is 16 , gives her some freaking space. Kids don't have to tell their mum every single thing. The least she could do is sit down and have a talk with Halley but all she did is not letting her talk and start accusing her of things she didn't do and then you wonder why ur kid don't talk to you
I am still curious about whats going on with Macon. Whether he fall out of love with Halley or just plain grumpy because he didn't get sex. WHAT THE HELL IS HE BEEN UP TO
I like Scarlett. She find herself in the bad situation but she push through to see her happy ending. Cameron is sweet and they are so cute together...more

6 person got trapped together in an underground basement of a restaurant and they have to kill a person or else all of them would died. Then really crazy shits happened. Everyone lost it and they start speculating and even contemplating murder. I wasn't even trying to guess who did it, all these time I am being held with a rope and dragging to all sort of theories and suspects this book thrown at me.
The alternating POV between past and present really up the whole tension of the book. And we discover more and more secrets that each person held and ahhh Sasha is so horrible.
I should have known that this book will sort of go the way of

This one is a bit of bored in the beginning because nothing interesting was going on. Rho traveled to Aquarius or Scorpio I think because there was a lot of description of the scenery going on and also some fancy technology Scorpio are using and its so boring. Rho saw whale and fly into the air which I couldn't care less about. Then Nishi invite Rho to Aquarius because there is a new Tomorrow Party ball which is held at Aquarius and then I have to endure all the talk about the clothes they gonna wear for the ball. Ugh. sucks even more because Hysan is gone from Rho's life
ONly second half did things starts looking up. They find evidence that The Tomorrow Party is not what it seems to be and the master could be any of the Guardians. Its crazy. And Hysan come back yay. And very very finally the master is revealed and damn I donno how they ever gonna defeat him...more

This book is not as mysterious and suspensful as the first 2 books. They are face up with a bigger enemy The Fallen Star but most of the time they are more focus on their petty love triangle. Idk it was just boring reading about them running around the world finding things to defeat the Fates. And finally we get an answer as to why Scarlett is able to see people's feelings as colours. ...more

I am glad I read this. This book is something I needed this time around. Its cute. It makes u feel good.
Only thing that I didn't click with is CharlotI am glad I read this. This book is something I needed this time around. Its cute. It makes u feel good.
Only thing that I didn't click with is Charlotte and Alison. I don't feel any chemistry between them (could be FF wasn't really my thing )and Alison barely known Charlotte then suddenly they are together. Charlotte also didn't strike me as someone with a personality. She was really bland
The play itself is fun. I enjoyed reading about how Alison manage to bring together a play despite having zero experience and she faced with some bumps along the way. Her cast Ben is moody and even more so when he broke up with their costume designer Zach. Set Designer Jenny is emo and rude all the time. Alison also have fights with her prop master / sister Annie and her best friend Becca who help her along with the way.
Their play wasn't like crazy good but what this story shows us is the friendship made and lesson learnt in the process of creating a play. And it was so cute and feel goody...more
Oh I was so bored. The story is like so juvenile. Like how I don't like to read Stephen King because his story feels so juvenile to me.
Then the book hOh I was so bored. The story is like so juvenile. Like how I don't like to read Stephen King because his story feels so juvenile to me.
Then the book have to describe every single thing. Like when the girls have to trudge through to forest to do their boat shift. Takes them forever to travel there because the books like to describe every plants and insects and I am bored. There are also a lot of girls around and I have a hard time of keeping track of all of them and it doesn't help that I don't care much about the story.
Rho is weak as hell in this. Keep on doubting herself and being scared as shit. I don't see much strength coming from her u know?? And ha I freakAhhhh
Rho is weak as hell in this. Keep on doubting herself and being scared as shit. I don't see much strength coming from her u know?? And ha I freaking knew it . I knew (view spoiler)[Mathias (hide spoiler)] isn't dead. Haiz I kinda wish he is dead bcuz then Rho won't be so weak and whining and all and now Hysan left her which is sad.
This book still manage to be entertaining, though I can do without the torture scene...more

He is way more resourceful and cunning than I ever thought and (view spoiler)[Dante (hide spoiler)] is such an good actor. Despite all his earnest promise to Tella, no I don't belive it he is playing with Tella all along. Also I have a feeling Jax is in love with Tella despite he keep insisting he is not.
May Tella and Scarlett defeat Legend once and for all in the third book. ...more

It has a fascinating world. One where humans rumoured to have come from earth and colonized the stars and they now lived on the 12 constellations. They got a special power called Centering where they can envision the stars and predict upcoming catastrophe.
I never quite get why they make Rho a Cancer guardian. We know she read the star results differently from others but the reason they elect Rho is frankly unconvincing. Then when Rho made her theory of Opichurus known , they dismissed her as crazy or immature. Why elect her when u don't even believe her.
Anyway this proved to be entertaining. I can't wait to see how her romance blooms with Hysan and I don't think (view spoiler)[ Mathias (hide spoiler)] is dead...more

Reading this take up all my energy LOL. I only pick up this bcuz its BOTM and I prefer to finish up a series but this is the last time that I will put myself through that kind of torture again.
This book is being long for the sake of being long when actually not much was happening. I don't like Lila. She is being painted as being some kind of bad ass but she's all talk and making snarky remarks and then get into trouble. Yeah its convenient how easy it is for her to just trade her bad eye for the inheritor and then everyone cheer about how awesome she is.
And then this books have a lot of part where the characters are just talking wisdom like they are oh so wise. Happened a lot too in Cassandra Clare books but at least the Shadowhunters books are much entertaining. Nvm its probably just me who doesn't like a lot of this wisdom talking. all of which is not something that I didn't heard before already.
Man what kind of idiot have to read through Maxim and Rhys went and fight the Osaron when we know they gonna lose anyway. If Maxim and Rhys don't be so stupid and go and fight Osaron then how else would we paint Kell and Lila as the hero? Spare me these predictable plot twists
Whats use of Alucard but being convenient to squeeze in some queer action. He wasn't even that important to the plot. ...more
