I laughed out loud at parts, which generally isn't something that comes to mind when you think about Greek mythology.
Sometimes, especially with the Heroes of Olympus series going on with a lot of characters that immediately draw me more than he does, it's a little hard to remember just how much I adore Percy Jackson, but his voice telling these stories was just perfect . It was such a fun way to tell Greek mythology.
The artwork in this book was also fantastic. You can kind of tell that it's going to be awesome by the cover, but even the cover is better in person. The book itself, at least the US hardcover, is absolutely huge. Like, I couldn't fit it anywhere but the bottom shelf of my bookshelf now that I'm done with it, it's so huge.
Overall, it's a fun book that makes me want Blood of Olympus even more. I loved it. ...more
Can we talk about this setting? Because the setting was my absolute favorite part of this book, and I'm usually a character person.
Even before you juCan we talk about this setting? Because the setting was my absolute favorite part of this book, and I'm usually a character person.
Even before you jump into the setting, it's intriguing - it's a fantasy that's Russia-based instead of the usual European-based fantasies. And while I do love European-based fantasies, the way that Leigh Bardugo built up the world for this was so cool . As well as the little bits of 'hey yeah that's Russia!', the magic system and the Grisha was also very cool. I liked how they were categorized, I liked their powers, and I liked how those powers worked.
The story itself follows Alina, your basic, average orphan with a crush on her best friend. She's a map-maker in the army, and while the army is crossing the Fold, a stretch of darkness that cuts the country in two, they get attacked and powers that she never knew she had are revealed. She's taken to the palace for Grisha training, and that's where the story really kicks off.
The plot and the writing were both very fast-paced. The writing easy to read and the plot didn't really keep me guessing - but I liked it. The real reason I gave this four stars instead of five was the characters.
I didn't dislike any of the characters. Alina was funny sometimes, Mal was absolutely adorable most of the time, and while I don't really get why people freak out about the Darkling so much, he was an interesting character to read about. Genya was probably, honestly my favorite, because while she wasn't a fantastic character, her personality was definitely unique.
Also, female sidekicks are usually my favorites. Take Nehemia from Throne of Glass for example. They're just usually really awesome.
Overall, it's a good book and I do think I'll eventually pick up books two and three, but they're not really all that high on my priority list....more
I initially bought it because I heard 'unattended young people in the wild + pig', thought Lord of the Flies, and dec~4.5 Stars~
Okay, so this book .
I initially bought it because I heard 'unattended young people in the wild + pig', thought Lord of the Flies, and decided that if it was anything like Lord of the Flies, it would be great. And while it is a lot different than Lord of the Flies, there is still that feel to it. (view spoiler)[ Also, David Zhang is a better Roger than Roger was, wow this kid . (hide spoiler)]
I'm going to start with the things I didn't like, because there were only a few - just enough to knock off half of a star. First, parts of it were kind of predictable - I knew who was going to make it out alive from the first descriptions. There are two characters that I just knew were going to survive, no matter what happened, and they did.
As well as that, the eventual fate of another character isn't quite clear - the last you hear of said character, said character says that they 'need to finish the game once and for all,' and then you never hear from them again.
Also, is it just me, or do all Chinese-American (or Chinese-Canadian) characters have the last name Zhang? I don't think I've read a book with a Chinese-American/Canadian character where their last name wasn't Zhang. It's popular, yes, but it's been every single one .
Now to the things I did like.
First of all, there was a seriously unexpected villain. You're introduced to a lot of characters at once, so of course a few are going to fade into the background while the first set gets introduced, but I did not see this kid coming. It was kind of brilliant.
Second, the ending. That one kid regardless, the ending was awesome. I had to re-read it a few times to see if I read it right, it was so great. Definitely awesome.
Also, the gore. Enoch St. John definitely didn't shy away from killing off characters, and it worked really well for the book.
Next, characters - considering this book is less than 300 pages and most of them die, you don't really see that much of very many of them. Either way, the ones that you did get to know were pretty great. All of them are 'bad kids' in some way - the book revolves around a wilderness camp for such people. A wilderness camp that, you know, goes horribly wrong, but they all have their issues. And you as the reader get to see a little bit of backstory even for the ones who die within the first fifty pages.
It was also a really, really fast-paced book. I finished it in a few hours, and I loved almost every minute of it.
Overall, a fast-paced, exciting book with a basic plot that works well and a cast of characters that you get to know just in time for them to die on you. I loved it....more

And it was a fantastic decision.
Since this was technically a re-read, I did sort of know what was coming, but I wasn't expecting to be as impressed with the writing as I was. In seventh or eighth grade when I first read these books, I was in a phase where I would read literally anything, no matter what book it was the series or if I particularly liked the genre or not. And I was honestly extremely surprised with how much I genuinely liked this book the second time through.
The writing, like I said, was amazing. It is a shorter book, hopping between a few different perspectives, though we saw the story mostly through Will's eyes. I liked Will as a main character, and I enjoyed reading about all of the side characters as well. This book, unlike a lot of middle grade/young adult, didn't shy away from having adult characters with personalities. I enjoyed that.
The plot was generally fast-paced, though the first thirty or so pages were a little slow... though it might have just taken me too long to get through those first thirty pages because I remembered a more-than-slightly mortifying part right there at the beginning, and I was sort of avoiding it.
Overall, a solid, thoroughly enjoyable first book in a fantasy series with great characters. ...more
I first read the Percy Jackson series when I was in seventh or eighth grade, and I've been keeping up wiEverything Rick Riordan writes is so much fun.
I first read the Percy Jackson series when I was in seventh or eighth grade, and I've been keeping up with the Heroes of Olympus series since, and re-reading this was such a great experience. It's so much fun to revisit where the story started - to see people like Luke and Grover again.
The characters are, of course, fantastic. Percy is such a fun main character, funny and sarcastic and definitely a hero. Annabeth is great, Grover is great, and even more minor side characters like Clarisse are just awesome .
It's been a while since I've read this, so I did forget everything that happened, and it was nice to see what was going on again. The plot is engaging, the story keeps you hooked, and the little bits of modernized/Americanized Greek mythology is just fun .
Overall, if you haven't picked these up for some reason, do so. It is a middle-grade series, but it's still a great time....more

This book stops just before (view spoiler)[ Kira #3 shows up (hide spoiler)] things get really exciting, and the building tension is just great .
Light Yagami remains one of my absolute favorite protagonists of all time. A serial killer, sure. Exciting and brilliant, also very true . When I watched the anime, Light was my absolute favorite, and while reading the manga, he has definitely remained the absolute best. L is decent, (view spoiler)[ Mikami hasn't shown his face yet (hide spoiler)], and Misa, while she can be a little annoying, is still a fun character to read about. There's something about her that's strangely admirable.
One of the best things about this series is L and Light constantly outsmarting each other while not actually doing anything, and it's absolutely fantastic. The battle between two great minds is so much fun to read, especially when they spend half of their time thinking what the other one will do and what the other one will think before doing anything. It's so great.
Oh wow. Okay. I actually liked this a lot more than I was expecting to.
First of all, I really liked how John Green and David Levithan's writing workeOh wow. Okay. I actually liked this a lot more than I was expecting to.
First of all, I really liked how John Green and David Levithan's writing worked together - it flowed well between the two of them, and while I have to say I maybe prefer Levithan a little bit more, that might have been because his parts had a different format - all lowercase, no quotation marks, so monotone and brilliant for the character he was writing.
As well as this, I liked Levithan's Will Grayson more, too - his problems seemed more serious, I teared up a little at some of the things that happened to him and, overall, I thought he grew more as a character. I did like Green's Will Grayson, too, though; while I could feel more for Levithan's, Green's hit closer to home. He did grow as a character, too, just not in the same way that Levithan's did. And, overall, I did love them both.
The story itself was entertaining and kept me reading way later into the night than I should have been reading. I really, really liked how Green portrayed his Will Grayson's (attempted) apathy, and I absolutely loved how Levithan portrayed his Will Grayson's depression. It was so raw , and I do think the writing style really helped with that - if Levithan's Grayson had been written normally, with normal capitalization and quotation marks, it wouldn't have made as much of an impact.
As well as that, the side characters were so much fun - on Green's side, Jane and Tiny Cooper, and on Levithan's side, Maura, Gideon, and Tiny Cooper. (view spoiler)[ My emotions were manipulated by all of these side characters, especially Maura. I felt betrayed and teared up when Isaac was revealed to be her. (hide spoiler)]
Just, overall, I don't know why I waited so long to read this, especially considering I enjoyed all of Green's other books and the two by Levithan that I read. It's absolutely fantastic. ...more
I read the first book in this series a few months ago and was completely blown away by how much I liked it, and this one... I did like the Okay. Wow.
I read the first book in this series a few months ago and was completely blown away by how much I liked it, and this one... I did like the first one better, but I don't think I could give this one any less than a five stars, because it's awesome, just like the first one - except with the addition of pirates .
The main story picks up two years after the last book, with a few chapters that take place immediately after the first book dispersed throughout the first half of the book. And it was awesome . The dialogue is as hilarious as ever; I laughed out loud several times while reading the book. The plot was pulled off well. The description is as great and captivating as ever.
Locke and Jean are as great as ever, of course - I love Locke as a main character - but we also get a slew of new characters to adore. More specifically, the pirates. More specifically than that, Ezri Delmastro and Zamira Drakasha. I loved both of them, though I have to admit that I liked Ezri a bit more. (view spoiler)[ There's a brief romance between Ezri and Jean, until Ezri dies which was horrible because I loved her, and the romance is actually really, really adorable. Like, way more adorable than I was expecting. (hide spoiler)]
One of the things I liked about the first book was how many things were going on at once, and though there is more of a straight-forward feel to this book, there were still a lot of fun things to keep track of. It was an extremely entertaining read, and I can't wait to move on to the third book.
Apart from one little subplot that I wasn't the biggest fan of, I actually really, really enjoyed this book. I've heard mixed things, so I was a littlApart from one little subplot that I wasn't the biggest fan of, I actually really, really enjoyed this book. I've heard mixed things, so I was a little wary, but... I fell on the side of really liking it.
The book follows a group of teenage girls who, after one of their classmate's apparent suicide, find out that they're witches. The plot focused on the group trying to figure out what actually happened with their classmate - if he was actually murdered, and who that murderer was.
All of these girls had their own problems, and the book took its time in showing these was well as the main plot, and I did like most of their problems! (view spoiler)[ Except I don't think I'm ever going to like teacher-student relationships, no matter how needed they are for the plot, unless they're portrayed in a way that's not... this. (hide spoiler)]
The characters themselves were fun, for the most part. My favorite was probably Rebecka or Vanessa - there are six of these girls, so they can be a little confusing at first, but after you meet them all and see them interact with each other, it's easier to figure out who's who. (view spoiler)[ Also calling it now Vanessa and Linnea if that's not a thing in later books I'm going to go back here and puzzle at the amount of times we saw Linnea from Vanessa's point of view. I'll even take onesided from Vanessa's end. (hide spoiler)] Although, despite the fact that Minoo's main subplot was one that I wasn't a fan of, I really could relate to her.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book, and I'm definitely going to pick up number two and wait for number three to come out in English....more

Seriously, I'd pick it up for what felt like ten minutes and I'd be a hundred pages farther. It moved so quickly that I almost had to force myself to slow down so that I didn't accidentally miss things. It was awesome .
The story takes place in a not-so-distant future where most people spend most of their time in a virtual reality-type of game called OASIS. You can do anything on OASIS - anything you want, there's a planet for that. Now, the creator of this game passed away about five years before the actual book starts, and he left almost all of his possessions, including control of OASIS and his fortune, to whoever could find the hidden Easter Egg in his game.
Our main character, Wade (or Parzival as he's known in OASIS) is a 'gunter' or, an egg hunter. As he sifts through eighties references to try and find the Egg, he stumbles across the first key to finding it. And that's where it takes off.
Wade is a fun main character - I liked him, he was interesting to read about, and I did like the motivation he had most of the time. As far as side characters go, Aech was awesome, Art3mis was pretty great, and Daito and Shoto were also fun to read about. The only real problem that I have with this book was that, while I liked reading about all of these characters, I never really connected with any of them. I never really felt for any of them, and I can't really say that any of them were my absolute favorite. There was something about them that was missing that spark for me.
But that might just be me.
Also, the several 80's references were so much fun. I understood maybe a fourth of them, but they were so much fun anyway.
Either way, this book is fun, fantastic, and just something awesome. ...more
This was, as expected, cute and not life-ruining. And I really liked it for that.
The story follows Alek, a young teenager who ends up having to go toThis was, as expected, cute and not life-ruining. And I really liked it for that.
The story follows Alek, a young teenager who ends up having to go to summer school because his grades aren't enough to keep him on the Honors Track the following year. It's a short book with a lot shoved into it about Armenian culture and history (and, considering the only other book I've read with even slightly Armenian characters is We Need to Talk About Kevin, it was fairly interesting), but there's a lot more than that.
Alek himself is a fun main character. He's interesting enough to make you want to read more. I liked reading from his perspective, and I liked the other characters, too - especially his best friend Becky.
Then we have the love interest. Ethan. I did like him for the most part - I did go back-and-forth a few times on whether I liked him, but in the end, he won me over. And he definitely played a big part in the best part about this book, which is that it's basically one of the cutest books I have ever read.
It's a cute, fluffy contemporary, and I really enjoyed that. There were times when I would have to just sort of bury my face in the book because it was adorable. It wasn't a perfect main relationship; there was a lot of miscommunication, which did sort of get old in a 250-page book, but overall, it was adorable .
The only real problem with this book that I had was that some of the characters didn't really feel like people, but, as you can see, it wasn't too big of a problem for me to give it four stars. Overall, super cute, super awesome, and I really enjoyed it. It's definitely the perfect book to read after marathoning a heart-breaking series. ...more

This book was actually a lot more than I was expecting.
From the beginning, the writing was stellar . I would have given it a solid three stars on the writing alone. But near the middle of the book, maybe about a hundred pages in, I started really enjoying the story as well, and all the various characters. Though most of them appear in one chapter and one chapter only, they all made an impact.
Speaking of an impact, that ending . I did see (view spoiler)[ Johnny being blind before it was revealed (hide spoiler)], but I did not see either of the two big twists at the end coming. I did have a suspicion that he (view spoiler)[ wasn't actually real, at least as that old (hide spoiler)], but I felt that way about Archie Costello and basically every other character in every single book, ever. I didn't actually think that it was actually what was going to happen.
Johnny as a main character didn't really make much of an impact on me, though, which was one of the reasons I didn't get into it for a while - I liked the side characters a lot more than the main character, which I feel shouldn't really be the case. I didn't dislike Johnny, but I didn't particularly love him either.
Overall, the quality of the writing and the side characters made me keep going as fast as I did, and the ending made everything awesome . A solid four-star, good book. ...more

This book was very entertaining, rarely boring, had a pleasant writing style, and had characters different enough from each other that you could tell them apart. Overall, it was a good book. So why only 3.5 stars?
The only problem with this book that I really had was the fact that it seemed sort of generic. This is a children's/middle grade book, so I do expect some simplicity. I keep in mind what age range a book is for when I'm rating it. But... there's a difference between simplicity and 'nothing really new.' And this book did lean more on the 'nothing really new' side of things.
But other than that, the book was very entertaining. I was never bored when I picked it up to read a chapter or two. I thought the struggles of fitting in to a new place and trying to be what other people want you to be were portrayed very well. As well as this, the writing style fit with the mood of the book - it was light, entertaining, and didn't have any moments that jarred me out of the story.
The characters were another good part of the book - we follow Summer, a girl who goes from rags to riches when she wins the lottery. Ten million dollars. Summer was a good main character, especially for a book like this. She wasn't shown as someone who could always stand her ground and stay true to herself, but she did realize what she was doing and managed to find herself again. I liked that about her.
Another character that I thought was done very well was Summer's mother, especially due to the fact that she actually had a personality, unlike a lot of parents in books. She was shown as impulsive, but true to herself. Her flaws and good points were balanced very well.
The rest of the characters were done in much of the same way - they were balanced well, and I, as the reader, could tell that a lot of work was gone into them.
The plot was fine. The pacing was good. Overall, it was a good book that I did enjoy. ...more

This book was.
Well, it's a little hard to explain. I finished it hours ago, and I'm still not quite sure how, exactly, I feel about it. It's satire of the paranormal romance genre, and in that aspect it does definitely succeed - though I didn't really find it funny until 'Hayden' showed up. I did appreciate the not-so-subtle digs at paranormal romance in the first part, though.
I did really enjoy this book. It was entertaining, and it was fast, and it was everything it promised to be. Everything that I would have problems with... was done on purpose, and that was pretty great. The writing itself was good; there was no awkward phrasing to pull me out of the story, I got what was going on and what important things looked like, and it did its job well.
Overall, this is a fun book to just pick up and enjoy one afternoon, when you're sick of dumb books pretending to be serious and want to read something making fun of the paranormal romance genre. ...more

For the first four hundred pages or so, the majority of the book is funny and sort of stupid. Enjoyable. A fun thing to read. But then...
Anyway, characters. The main character, Ryan Dean West, is likeable enough. He's a hormonal teenager and he's perverted but overall he's a decent character. Then you've got Annie (aka the love interest) and she's pretty interesting too! I like her. There's Chas, Ryan Dean's roommate, JP and Seanie, Ryan Dean's former roommates/best friends, and then there's Joey, who starts out just being mentioned in a sort of offhand manner ("Oh Joey was there, he's gay but yeah he's a cool guy" to paraphrase it)and turns into basically Ryan Dean's best friend.
There are a few more - Casey, Megan, Isabelle, but they're pretty minor and though they were easy to differentiate between they're not really worth mentioning.
Now, the plot. Basically, Ryan Dean has gotten in trouble and is now in O-Hall, which is for the 'bad kids.' He's pining after Annie, a girl who's his best friend but she's two years older than him - Ryan Dean is a fourteen year old junior. Everything keeps piling on and piling on and piling on, including rivalries between an old friend and gaining a new friend and playing poker at night in the O-Hall.
I'm going to mention the end but not quite spoil it - I just have to say that it definitely earns its liferuiner status. It was on the level of The Fault in Our Stars sad - maybe even above TFIOS. It was just... I don't know if I can really think about it for a while, but I am glad I bought this book....more
Second re-read January 2015, rated 5/5 stars. It's nothing new to me when Stephen King books get better each time I read them. I re-read Roadwork unt Second re-read January 2015, rated 5/5 stars. It's nothing new to me when Stephen King books get better each time I read them. I re-read Roadwork until I could stand it, and while always enjoyed The Gunslinger, I didn't love it until this time around. Maybe it's because Roland Deschain is probably like my favorite fictional character, like, ever - not counting from video games, just from, like, books - or maybe it's just because I've finished the series now and I took my time with it and could catch all of the horrible, horrible foreshadowing... but I absolutely loved it.
It's true that the writing style is a little bit different from the others, and I don't think that this one will ever be my favorite of the series if only because I love the camaraderie of his ka-tet, that we don't see until The Drawing of the Three, but it's still amazing. I still adored it way more than I had before.
Roland is my favorite. He's just so fantastic. I love his character, and I love re-reading earlier books so that I can think of his character development and cry. Because Roland and character development is something amazing (view spoiler)[ at least until the end of The Dark Tower(hide spoiler)], and he's also just. Kind of adorable sometimes. And it's a bit weird to think of a grown man with guns as adorable, but he kind of is. I adore him so much.
There's not much else I can say without gushing for like the next three thousand words, so I'm going to cut myself off. Basically, if you didn't really like this the first time through, come back to it after you've finished the series. It's way better then.

Also, watching Caine progress as a character and then regress and then progress again and overall, while the best-written character in this series may be Quinn, actually, Caine's pretty far up there.
But the characters in this series, all of them are so well-done. I don't think there's a single character that doesn't develop in some way. And so I cry a lot, basically. There's a reason this series is my favorite.
Re-read So, this is the third time that I've read this book.
You'd think I'd be used to it by now.
You'd be wrong.
From (view spoiler)[ Brianna's death (hide spoiler)] about 200 pages in to the end, to "You are now free to leave the FAYZ" or whatever, I was gone. Just gone. (Though funnily enough, the tearstains landed on Howard's name in the acknowledgements. Haha, he's my favorite character and that's funny)
See, the thing with this series is that it's everything I've ever wanted in a series. It's six books long. It's got a huge, diverse cast of characters. Each book is like, at least 400 pages, and Hunger's like over 600 or so. There's copious amounts of not only gore, but Michael Grant gore. And also there's the fact that he's planning on maybe writing another series that takes place post-FAYZ and I'm freaking freaking freaking out becaUSE HE SAID HE'D INCLUDE DEFINITELY ESPECIALLY EDILIO.

That's going to basically be the only thing I'm thinking until I finish Light. And probably like, several days after I finish Light, but still. Orccccccc
Most all I want to say here is spoiler-y, so we're going to just throw down some spoiler tags and run with it.
My favorite thing is Caine begrudgingly helping people - like he does with Brianna in Plague, and like he's going to in Light, and him and Sam going after Drake and trying to find Diana is like the best, even if the only reason he agreed is because a) DIANA and b) HE WANTS TO KILL PENNY FOR THE WHOLE 'CONCRETE' THING and c) He's still probably a little weak from the whole concrete thing. But I love it.
Also, Howard's death. Sadness. This calls for a super-long canon divergence starting way back in Plague in which I get that Howard/Edilio thing they had going on in Lies back up to speed in which he doesn't die.
Ahem.
Also, Orc sadness. Dear God, he makes me sad. He just - dear God. Ughhh Orc.

Re-read (Dekka's totally enough of a main character by Plague to count, right?)
When your favorite character is Howard Bassem, you have to deal with some stuff. Some stuff includes: no other characters actually liking him, despite his massive parts in Lies (this is pretty justified), him being demoted back to super minor character, despite his massive parts in Lies (TBH, when Orc's wandering somewhere, Howard's not usually anywhere you can find him, he's got his own stuff going on), and also him being in like no fanworks but that's a different story.
Also, when your favorite character used to be Hunter Lefkowitz, this book makes you super sad. Hunter child
But yeah. This stuff gets. This stuff gets intense. (view spoiler)[ Like - Breeze & Caine teaming up, that was awesome. (hide spoiler)] Also, Caine Soren is a huge dork. Like oh my god. He's power-hungry and vicious and merciless and horrible but he is also a huge dork that "makes a noise like a strangled animal when he sees a naked girl

I mean, not even because of intense stuff happening to the characters, but I'm talking about my emotional pain. God, Hunter. Duck. The ship I shouldn't ship but totally ship anyway hahaha.
By that I mean Caina.
God, I love Caina.
But anyway, every time I re-read a series or something, I get scared that I'm not going to love it like I did before. And like every time, I'm proved that, nope, I still love this series and it's like, I love this series and it brings me so much pain and I have no idea why I continue to re-read it because damn, it just takes over my mind. That's something that this series does. It just takes over my brain and I can't think of anything else and god I love everything in this series so much and I'm going to go see if I can read Lies in three hours kthnxbai...more
