Book Review: Shadow and Bone (Grisha #1)

Book Title:  Shadow and Bone (Grisha #1)
Author: Leigh Bargudo

“This was his soul made flesh, the truth of him laid bare in the blazing sun, shorn of mystery and shadow. This was the truth behind the handsome face and the miraculous powers, the truth that was the dead and empty space between the stars, a wasteland peopled by frightened monsters.”
Alina Starkov, Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

Final Verdict: A fast read with characters that have great chemistry. Perhaps a little too light on the fantasy content though.

Book Review: I am Number Four

Book Title: I am Number Four
Author: Pittacus Lore

“There were NINE of us who escaped…
Number ONE was killed in Malaysia.
Number TWO was murdered in England.
Number THREE was hunted down in Kenya.
Before they come for the others, they’ll come for me…
I AM NUMBER FOUR.”
John Smith, I am Number Four by Pittacus Lore

Final Verdict: A book to read mindlessly. Thinking only means you see the large plot holes and the lack of depth in the characters.
