Priyanka

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars Genre: Supernatural Fiction Age Recommendation: 14 and up I felt that this was a little slower paced than the first book, but I still liked it. However, the cliffhangers in this series are not funny. WHY?!! The author really needs to stop torturing devoted readers and just tell us what happens. Luckily, I have bought the entire series and cannot wait to devour the rest of them! ———————————————– Morgan has finally accepted the fact that she is a blood witch. However, she is eager to find out more about her past, since she is adopted. … Continue reading Book Review: The Coven by Cate Tiernan (Book 2 of the Sweep Series)

Priyanka

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars Age Recommended: Anyone and everyone (especially dog owners) Genre: Fiction An amazing book about the four lives of a dog and the true meaning of a dog’s purpose from a dog’s point of view. At this point, I can say with confidence that this is the best book I’ve ever read. Not only because it has a fantastic story or because it is incredibly well written. Not because it’s fiction.

Book Review: Quidditch Through the Ages by J.K. Rowling

Priyanka

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars Genre: Fiction (although I wish it wasn’t) Age Recommendation: EVERYONE I cannot believe that I forgot about this book. A very nice family friend gave me this book as a gift and another one: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them for my birthday!

Book Review: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by J.K. Rowling

Priyanka

Rating: 5 out of  stars Genre: Fiction (if only it wasn’t) Age Recommendation: Everyone (I cannot stress this enough) Another one of the amazing books mentioned in the Harry Potter series has come to life in J.K. Rowling’s hands. I found this book especially funny because it is Harry’s property and he has written his own funny notes all over the book. To be honest, I found his notes more interesting than the actual text of the book (which I am sure was the author’s intention). Also, I just realized- they’re making a movie on this book!!! It will be released next … Continue reading Book Review: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by J.K. Rowling
