Regina Rising
Regina Rising by Wendy Toliver My rating: 2 of 5 stars I would recommend watching the show before reading this book.

There was part of of the … Continue reading Regina Rising
Skulduggery Pleasant
Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy My rating: 4 of 5 stars Honestly, this series, it is in a class of its own. It has a ton of dry humor that I enjoy.

Ozma of Oz
Ozma of Oz by L. Frank Baum My rating: 3 of 5 stars I love the Oz books.

How Mirka Got Her Sword
How Mirka Got Her Sword by Barry Deutsch My rating: 3 of 5 stars How Mirka Got Her Sword is a good beginning to a series. My only real issue was the fact that I lack background knowledge that I'm sure would have helped explain some of the cultural references. I was able to pick … Continue reading How Mirka Got Her Sword
