Aquicorn Cove by Kay O’Neill

5 stars While I am waiting (not so patiently) for the release of Tea Dragon Festival, I have started reading the rest of the books Kay O’Neill has worked on, because I absolutely love their ideas and artwork.

The Tea Dragon Society by Kay O’Neill

4 stars Such a beautiful book. Strangely enough, I actually started reading this online over X-mas. I had finished the first chapter (and was loving it) when I found a physical copy at the library. I really enjoyed reading it and the huge pages of the physical book really allow you to get lost in…

The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air #1) by Holly Black

3 stars This is just one of those books that is super difficult to review. Overall, it was good. I think my downfall was reading The Darkest Part of the Forest before this one. I absolutely loved that book. It was amazing. I loved everything about it. When I figured out this series was set in the…

The Worst Witch All a Sea by Jill Murphy

4 stars Another great book in the Worst Witch series. I really enjoy this series. Mildred’s character is very likeable and it is interesting to read about all of the adventures she has and the trouble she finds herself in. Simply language, but a nice adventure story. The ending was a bit predictable, but I…

Dragon Rider by Cornelia Funke

5 stars  Fantastic read. I really enjoyed this book. I was a bit hesitant to read it after I read Inkheart earlier this year. I loved Inkheart, but it took me a while to get into it. This one, however, had me hooked at page one. This is a great adventure tale. In comparison to…
