I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I am an avid reader as well as a fan of dollhouses so I knew I had to read The Library of Lost Dollhouses. I very much enjoyed all the dollhouse details from the creation, to the meaning, just every little detail. I did like the storyline but honestly felt it was a little confusing especially regarding the main character's mother. (my Goodreads review)

I really liked fierceteeth’s perspective but I wish it was longer

It was hard to put down! A lot of information revealed and tons of action!

Loved this book

First book I read with Dez Limerick as the protagonist. Will be reading the others

This is non-fiction. Stephen was four year old in 1942 when he was deported from German occupied Guernsey. He and his parents were sent to a prison camp where they all survived for three years. After the war they returned to their home which had been taken over by another family. Stephen relates the events he remembers.

I have always loved school arcs in fantasy series as I get to see the character develop and interact with others at their age. This is especially true with Aurthor as soon after he joins the school he humbles an angry teacher and becomes the professor for that class, which was really cool.

This book is SUPER FUNNY! I’d highly recommend this book to everyone. It’s in a series and it’s amazing!

Very easy read! This is a book about 2 people randomly meeting on New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas. They are both overcoming a breakup.

I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I am admittedly not usually the reader who loves fantasy but I knew from reviews that I wanted to read When the Tides Held the Moon by Venessa Vida Kelley. The cover is eye-catching with the graphic of Benny and the merman. I loved the oceanic colors used for it. Benny is on his own in life after losing his aunt. He has come to America and is working as a blacksmith. Benny has difficulties with his breathing and being in an environment such as a metal shop really affects his health. Benny is a talented blacksmith and his art is noticed by the owner of one of the local amusement parks - Luna Park in Coney Island. Benny is hired to build a large tank for a new exhibit and isn't told of all the details. Benny finds himself becoming attached to the new exhibit - a real merman from the ocean. I loved Benny's compassion and moral struggles within himself and with the merman. The other characters in the book that make up the menagerie were also such a great group of characters to read about. My two favorite parts in this book were the illustrations and the storyline. The illustrations added to the story and worked together with the cover. I usually don't read much fantasy but this was such a good story. (from my Goodreads review)
