So I started this series because my niece and nephew suggested it. After the first book, I was wondering if this was a series I really wanted to finish. After the second, I decided it was probably worth finishing. This third book, Grip of the Shadow Plague, made me so happy I continued this series….
Finally! Answers! Did it give me all the answers I wanted? No, but it covered enough to give me a sense of a satisfying ending. If you’ve seen my other posts about the books in this series you know I’ve been craving answers since book 1. Son, finally, provides some answers. That being said let’s get…
Lois Lowry is killing me with these open endings! Don’t get me wrong I have enjoyed every book in this series so far, but they all feel like they end in the middle of the story, not the end. It’s incredibly frustrating and Messenger follows that same pattern. I never realized how much I…

Disclaimer: In Percy Jackson and the Battle of the Labyrinth, they use the term “gods” as a swear word. However, since they specifically refer to the Greek gods, I did not feel it fell under the category of a swear word for my grading system. In the last book, Percy found out he was destined…
I’m a bit ashamed to admit that this is my first Terry Pratchett book. I have read Good Omens, but since both Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman wrote that book, I don’t really count it as reading a Terry Pratchet book. As a fantasy lover, for years, I have had people suggest I read Terry…
