I found this book in one of those free little libraries and decided to give it a try. I wasn’t thrilled about reading a book written in a style like it was, sort of like an interview, but it made it easier to get through. The will they or won’t they that you felt as you’re reading about Billie and Daisy just keeps you going page after page. I cannot wait to pass this book onto someone else.

Oh my goodness! I can’t believe the story is over! I have truly loved this series so much. This final book took me on such an emotional rollercoaster! I laughed a lot, but I also cried some. This author can pull at every single emotion you have with this book. The ending was absolutely beautiful. I will read this series over and over again, just so I can relive this experience again. The war alone will keep you on the edge of your seat while you read. A special thank you to the author for giving us this beautiful and amazing series!

Okay, the third book is officially my favorite. I was getting annoyed with how needy both of the male leads were being, but it got better as I read. If you read my previous review, I was team Kaz. Well, that changed more and more with each chapter. I am now team Ruslan! The story is building up so much more with each book. And now I am ready for book four! The cliffhanger really got me at the end! I still love that there are multiple points of views through this book. In the beginning you really only get two in book one. Book two has a few more. This one though gives you the insight to other characters and what is going on in their minds. You see so many torn as you are as you read. There’s so many twists and turns that you don’t know who you should be routing for with this series. I love it!

This book was suggested to me by a friend. And when I posted on my Facebook that I was about to start reading it, other friends started commenting and telling me that they loved it. I could not put it down. I did not even go to sleep until I finished it. I cannot say too much on this book, because it would give so much away. I want others to have that shock when they get to the twists in the plot that I got to. I am about to start the second book today. I hope I can put it down, because I do not want to be up late again, even though it was very much worth it!

I guess I read the American version, because it was the sorcerers stone. I read this when I bought a copy for my little brother when he was little. I was thumbing through it and before I knew it, I had read the entire book. I had to buy him his own copy. I’ve been a fan ever since. I’ve actually read this one several times.

One of the best fantasy books that I read as a child. It made me always just want to go into my closet and end up in another world.

Although it’s not my favorite from the series of books or movies, I did learn so much more that the movies did not tell us in this book.
