Just my opinion....Also, JESSICA, we will be giving away a copy of "Fire " when these 2 contests are over. If you want to stick around and enter, you never know, but I have the copy already from Penguin sitting upstairs and am just waiting to post the Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07093088073769843713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372548807962669495.post-16369286367248404832009-08-17T13:06:21.741-04:002009-08-17T13:06:21.741-04:00Now I'm going to have to buy it.

Thanks, Dave. ^,^ This review has <i>most definitely</i> gotten me psyched up to read this book and perhaps even look forward to the prequel. Only a pro writer can make that happen, I expect.<br /><br />I mean, the characters sound cool and the thing with Graces is awesome (it reminds me of the book SAVVY where everyone's special talent is called Magentahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04079033662798955544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372548807962669495.post-67779211189344903672009-08-17T11:11:09.871-04:002009-08-17T11:11:09.871-04:00I have not read this yet but hope to.

I was on the fence when I was writing it, as most of it came from memory ( I read it about a month ago) and my daughters were running around playing, so it was kinda hard to think. But...thanks so much, and I did fix it! Glad you check it out.<br /><br />DaveDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07093088073769843713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372548807962669495.post-11394985632462176922009-08-16T23:11:07.199-04:002009-08-16T23:11:07.199-04:00You did get something wrong.

There are so many good things in this book you just have to go in depth to really even give people a gist of what the book is about. Katsa is such a strong character and she can take care of herself and others better than most men.

And im not just saying that because Laura is cool. As a matter of fact, I had expressed to her that as a reader, she has laid the foundation to take Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07093088073769843713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4372548807962669495.post-67599187687593429012009-08-16T22:57:43.380-04:002009-08-16T22:57:43.380-04:00I think the best part of this book was the "G...I think the best part of this book was the "Graces". They were varied and unique, and not what I expected. I guess I thought there'd be something like a "flight" grace, a "teleportation" grace, stuff like that, basically giving them X-Men powers in a fantasy world, but instead they were more like knacks or talents that were really revved up.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13342192635635750418noreply@blogger.com
