Words Of Radiance

This is book 2 of the Stormlight Archive which began with The Way Of Kings. It’s one of many books in the Cosmere universe. This book is another slammer for me. I’m not sure why some people complain about the Sanderlanche as I find the book amazing from start to finish. I think it’s because I enjoy getting to know

The Way Of Kings

The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson is the first book of the Stormlight Archive and one of many books in the Cosmere universe. This isn’t my first Sanderson book, I actually started my journey into the Cosmere with the novella The Emperor’s Soul. After that I was hooked, I went on to read the Misborn trilogy and Elanrtris. This

Warbreaker

This is another great story in the Cosmere universe. It’s a standalone novel but that doesn’t make it any less wonderful to read. I loved Siri and Lightsong the most out of all the characters had something to keep you interested in them. Brandon Sanderson excels at making you care about the people and the worlds he creates. I found

The Bride Wore Size 12

Ah the 5th and final book in the series featuring Heather Wells. It took a long time but we finally got the wedding the readers were waiting for. Well we’ve had many murders for Heather to solve but this murder actually takes place before classes at the school even take place which is a bit unfair. Not only does Heather

Size 12 And Ready To Rock

I’ve made it to the 4th book and I was surprised because I think I was 30% in before a body dropped. It just took awhile longer than the previous books. A lot happened to Heather in this one including learning about her own health with endometriosis and what it means for her future. I’m so happy that she finally

Size 14 Is Not Fat Either

This is the second book in the Heather Wells series by Meg Cabot. The series starts with Size 12 Is Not Fat so make sure to read that first. Poor Heather, I swear Nancy Drew and Jessica Fletcher never had quite this much trouble but then again they never had to work in Death Dorm. So not every book can

The Poppy War

I really struggled with this book. I wanted to like it, we didn’t get along. I spent the first half of the book disliking the main character. Then the war came and I was just disappointed. I never connected with Rin but I did like Kitay and Jiang. Rin did have some character growth but not enough to make me

Elantris

This book was published before Mistborn. This would be the 4th Brandon Sanderson book I’ve read if we don’t count the novella of The Emperor’s Soul. I still like the Mistborn trilogy more but the characters of this book grew on me. I ended up cheering for them loud enough that I’m glad I wasn’t in library reading it! This

Blood Price

I bought this ages ago on my Kobo and there used to be a Kindle edition as well.. sadly that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore. This series is great which is to be expected from Tanya Huff as she is one of my favourite Canadian authors. However the TV adaptation of her books called “Blood Ties” lacked her

The Hero Of Ages

The Hero of Ages is the third book in the Mistborn Trilogy. Although I know there is another trilogy after it, a sequel series. I loved that we got to see things from TenSoon’s point of view and learn more about the Kandra. In each book of the Mistborn Trilogy we got a complete story. In the first book we

The Well of Ascension

The Well of Ascension is the second book of the Mistborn Trilogy and takes place 1 year after the ending of the first book. It turns out that this book was originally where Brandon wanted to start, luckily for everyone he wrote Mistborn instead. The reason I say this is because it gave the reader more of a chance to

Mistborn

I just finished reading Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson and I absolutely loved it. It’s not very often where I find a book or any media where I love the whole cast but Sanderson did it. I’m clearly going right to the second book after finishing this little review of mine because I MUST know what happens next. Brandon was right

The Emperor’s Soul

I’ll make a confession, I haven’t read any Brandon Sanderson books before this. I picked this little novella as my taster because Brandon said on his website that it was short and would give the reader a feel for his work. I loved this little book. It was short but it didn’t feel short, it felt complete in ways many

Nevernight

I had a good chuckle at the beginning when the prologue warned readers that the author wouldn’t make things pretty. Now a quick explanation on the difference between Young Adult (YA) and New Adult content by Elisabeth Wheatley is in order because I don’t consider this YA at all. Most people don’t and yet Goodreads had it tagged as YA.

The Girl Who Fell Beneath The Sea

I really liked this one a lot. It felt like a fairy tale in all the best possible ways. I know many people might think of the Little Mermaid and the thought did briefly cross my mind. However this book also brought to mind The Ill Made Mute or at least my vague memory of it. I can also see

Scorpion and the Night Blossom

My first thoughts were of the movie The Lake House when I read about the pendant. I wasn’t very far into the book at the time but it’s a thought that decided to chime in. Now that I’ve finished this book that was dedicated to Cdrama girlies.. I felt it was more like The Vampire Diaries than a Cdrama. The

Heart of the Sun Warrior

This book take off a year after the events of the first book Daughter of the Moon Goddess. It seems like we have a Katniss vs. Snow situation going on. Xingyin has freed her mother, it’s seen as an act of defiance and rebellion by the Celestial Majesties. This gives Catching Fire vibes. Thankfully readers don’t have to wait too

Daughter of the Moon Goddess

I just finished reading Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan. It’s a good book, the beginning gives me a bit of Cinderella vibes. This is because our female protagonist comes from well off family and then through circumstances beyond her control she has to toil away for some horrible people until a prince rescues her. The prince
