So I realize it has been FOREVER since I have recommended some good reading material to the masses so I thought I would just start with a few books that I really enjoyed in the last two months! I have read way to many books in the last few months, it is all the fault of my husband who was wonderful and bought me a Kobo Arc for my birthday and then gave it to me three weeks early! Of course I had to try it out by reading on it nearly constantly!!! I love it and the battery lasts way longer than I thought it would. Anyway back to the really important things!!! BOOKS!!!
Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes here is the link http://www.fallingkingdoms.com/ I loved that there are several different characters that are developed as key characters. I also liked the complexity of the story and that which ever character you are "hearing" from determines the point of view of the story. This made me love and hate certain characters. It is a great illustration of point of view determining the truth of a situation. I can't wait for the sequel!!!
Shadowcry and the sequel Blackwatch by Jenna Burtenshaw here is the link http://jennaburtenshaw.blogspot.com/ I enjoyed the characters in this book. I really like when one of the characters in a book is not perfect or even really a "good" person but they manage to be "good" in the end. This has that type of character along with the wonderfully "perfect" and naive characters to balance it out. The story is complex and detailed and the world she lives in is so well written you can see it in your mind as you read. If you like fantasy adventure/ magic/ suspense then you will love these two books. I am DYING to read the next one.
I will try to remember to come back tomorrow and write a few more. I have read around 50 books in the last 3 months so I have quite a few to share with you!
