you know shits about to go crazy when there's less than 100 pages left... #LETSGOOOO

Currently in the middle of this book, and just got the biggest mind fuck from this plot twist!!! Freaking out right now!!!! I love when a book makes me go insane

This was the first LitRPG book I've ever indulged in, and while I was skeptical, I was pleasantly surprised. The initial introduction to Jason and the world of Adventurers could have been better, but I was quickly pulled into the story and finished the book within a matter of days. The idea of statistics and abilities is utilized inn a rather unique and interesting way, especially with the humourous and enticing characters we meet in this story

An exciting conclusion to the adventures we see with Alanna, but not my favorite in the bunch. Alanna once again proves herself to be incredibly strong and determined (and to out it simply, badass). #TeamGeorge

This book might not have the same amount of exciting content as the previous two, but brings some much needed development to the characters and the relationship between them, while setting Alanna up for an exciting adventure in the next book.

The second book in the series, Alanna has now showed readers that being feminine does not equal being weak. We finally get a satisfying piece of romance, and Alanna grows stronger in the face of continuing adversary. Her character inspires me and makes me feel strong just reading her! Can't wait to continue down her journey.

If you like her other books, you'll enjoy this one too, though it lacks the same adventure and excitement of her other stories. Her creativity is still visible and lovely to read, and I enjoyed the story, but it was much more complex in the characters and development than any straight forward quest.

Inspired to read by my favorite movie, this book is one of the few that I can say makes a movie even better after reading. Having just as many similarities as differences, the story itself explains more of the movie as you read, while only making you love your favorite characters more. I still prefer the movie, but this was a nice little read.

Another childhood favorite, we watch another young woman fight her own unique battles. While this story lacks any violence or action, there is just as much battle for justice and heroism as any tale of knighta. seeing Ellas personality come into her adventures is one of my favorite parts, as she fights her own curse in unique ways. A unique retelling of a classic fairytale.

One of my favorite stories from childhood, I could listen to this story over and over. GCL really knows how to deliver a good story, keeping readers rooting for Adi and she finds her courage, getting your heart pounding as Meryl fights her own battles, and bringing a classical history in with Drualt, this is a 5 star story.

Cashore has shown readers that she can write any number of strong female leads of all types, and with bitterblue, she has rounded out the emotional spectrum in all 3 books. This book was much darker, heavier, and more serious than the 2 previous, and aptly so. Being able to see our favorite characters later on, surviving and processing trauma, was a deeply emotional experience to read but go into it very carefully.

Fire is another very strong female lead, but on the opposite side of the spectrum from Katsa. The emotional depth we lacked with Katsa was fulfilled with Fire, and the unique ties between the two stories brought an added layer of satisfaction to readers. Definitely recommend reading Graveling before this.

I have such huge admiration for how Machale develops his characters and story line. Bobby is never displayed as a leader who knows all, but as a kid finding his way, with doubts and questions and confusions. Saint Dane has once again added a very pleasing layer of complexity to the story, and I find myself wondering what to believe right along with Bobby. I really feel the tension building in the battle for halla with ever page.

The series is finally starting to go down the inevitable developmental trail of darkness, and Bobby as a character is truly starting to fill out and grow into his role as a Traveler. I have a great appreciation for the plot twists that keep me on my toes with this series, along with the fact that Machale does not crowd please by forcing romance. Love the natural development as Bobby as a warrior, as well as his relationship with Loor.

The midpoint in the Pendragon series, Machale keeps readers guessing by throwing in twists and turns that leave me clinging to every page. I often find myself expecting a predictable plot development, but I am more often than not pleasantly fooled and surprised. The character of Saint Dane is truly a unique and complex one, and I never know what to expect from him, which is something I love in a villain.

Love the direction that Machale took Bobby's character in this book - a hero cannot be perfect and MUST make mistakes for readers to be able to empathize and view the story with realistic expectations and emotions. There isn't always a happy ending, but sometimes a more important course of events that is the path of lesser evil. Another great addition for Bobby as a character, ready for his growth and redemption.

Bobbys second adventure is a really excellent step in the right direction for his character. This adventure and story is still rather exciting and fun, with just the right amount of death and despair for a young reader/protagonist to bear. Uncle Press' influence was apt and timely, and the scene is slowly being set for the future of Bobby as a Traveler.

Machale begins with Bobby's adventures in a similar manner to the start of Harry Potter - our protagonist is young and naive, with little idea of what's going on jt ultimately he saves the day. Bobbys character is introduced as rather realistic, he's 14, annoying, and pissed about his life changing. Ultimately, Machale has a set up a really great character intro with excellent room for a development and growth arc.

if you love strong female heroines, look no further, because katsa is the full package. The combination of kingdoms, courtships, and unique powers is such an enjoyable world to dive into, especially with katsa's truly epic feats and fights. The entertaining dynamic between Katsa and Po is also something that never gets old and that you can't help but fall in love with. awesome story I could not stop reading, and have reread many times since.

At no point in this book did I know where it would take me. Reid truly masters the art of simple suspense throughout the whole novel, making it truly difficult for me to put down the book and stop turning pages... The end of the book is such a simple, fast-paced culmination of information that immediately upon finishing, I had to go back and reread the last 20 pages or so to fully appreciate the masterful delicacy of writing. Book club material!

relistening to this book and it explains a lot of why I am who I am today. Alanna is the original female MC that is sick of the patriarchy and shoves it back in the faces of all the men in her life. Such a strong character, reading this makes me feel like I can do anything. She is the blueprint.

if you're someone who enjoys criminal minds, this book is like the best episode of Criminal Minds on crack that you'll ever see, and then made better because it's in writing. Being able to read the perspectives of so many other characters really filled in the story from the movie, so it was still a worthwhile experience even when having seen the film beforehand.

This book made me feel so stressed as the final battle approached, I genuinely felt amazed at how events transpired. Seeing the clear difference in character development from the start of the series to the end of it, the fulfilled character arcs were satisfying in their entirety, except for that one part.... I was genuinely sad to have to finish this book and leave the world of Alegaesia that Christopher Paolini created. Having a signed copy helps

One of the more complex installments of the Inheritance cycle, Paolini really develops and lays down the foundation for an epic ending.... the story is one so fantastic that I genuinely felt the magic and the emotion

My personal favorite of the 4 novels that make up the Inheritance Cycle. Switching between multiple POVs, most insterestingly that of Roran, this book truly brought me into the pages to the action packed world of Alegaesia. My heart pounded and my adrenaline spiked reading this story as it never has for a book before, including my 2 favorite scenes of the whole series. I literally shouted while reading the fantastic culmination of all the POVs.

Fantastic start to my favorite fantasy series ever, and this is the simplest one of the whole series!! Christopher Paolini uses such incredible descriptive language that you can perfectly imagine these strange and fantastical places and things in a story he establishes so well that it cannot help but feel real
