wow !! ali hazelwood really shocked me with this one . very much appreciated the change of scenery from the science-y ones, and this one had the perfect balance :) actually was a great story that kept me engaged and i enjoyed reading it a lot !!

Wow, what an amazing read! Read this for a bookclub and was pleasantly surprised. Western/horror is not my usual genre to read, but this book really kept me hooked. Great characters, a unique plot, action, emotion, and a wonderful story! Really enjoyed this one.

golly

I first read this book when I was about... 8 years old? It took over my life then, and reading it now just reminds me of my first and original love for reading that this book gave me. One of my top 10 novels ever for sure and I will never forget how it makes me feel. Love every page of it!

the only reason this book took me so long is because i was in a bit of a reading slump- but this was the most beautiful book ive ever read (both beautifully written and beautifully illustrated). the pictures and way it was written completely immersed me in the story and brought my two favorite things (pride and prejudice AND science fiction) together . amazing story and i loved every page of it .

what a fantastic story. i have owned this book since i was about 14, but im glad i waited until now to read it . i feel like i wouldnt have understood it as well when i was younger . but wow, so many references and what a great story . i would give this 5 stars , but i feel like it was dragged out more than necessary . certain parts was given so much detail that i found it a struggle to power through and read- but im still glad i read it . it really will never leave my mind and i think it is a wonderfully written piece of literature

i usually love penelope douglas, but this one just didn't hit . it was a lil tooo much for me- that's just my personal opinion . story was a little far fetched and silly at times, but i really liked it in the beginning . wasn't a bad read- but probably one of my least favorites from douglas . :(

i did really like this book, it just kind of escaped me in the middle. i went through a long part of time where i couldn't find anything interesting to look forward to until it got closer to the end- which really excited me. honestly i really was hoping that bree and sel would get together - and i unfortunately let that blindside me from the great works of this book. this was an amazing story that i loved, it was just kind of slow for me. but wonderfully written and amazing for being a ya novel. good read :)

specifically a 4.7 star rating only because it's a romance novel and i reserve 5 star ratings for my sci-fi books
but that doesn't mean this book wasn't amazing! i definitely loved it, and out of the other two ali hazelwood novels i have read (the love hypothesis and love on the brain) this has been my favourite from her. it could also be that i took a big break since the last time i've read one of her books (over a year ago) but this book felt very fresh and fun compared to her others. while these three books that i've read from her have all centered around women in stem and finding a handsome, sexy, and out-of-this-world perfect man in stem, this one felt better. i don't know how to explain it! i think elsie's character was a lot more relatable and had a lot more character development than the other two novels (but nonetheless, those books are still great). i'm really glad i read this book and it included a great story, characters, spice, and internal character development. this is 100% worth reading!!

one of the most underrated science fiction novels i have read in a long time. while the writing style was very unique, it added to the book and to the feeling that the book gave of suspense and tension. i'm so glad i decided to give this book a chance, rather than listen to the countless hateful reviews on this novel. i was initially interested in reading the book because i watched the movie adaptation about 4 years ago and was blown away by it. while the book is nothing like the movie- i still loved it because it gave greater insight into many of the questions i wondered when i watched the film. i'm so glad this book exists- and i plan on reading the rest of the trilogy when i get the chance. amazing book!

had to log onto my laptop so i could do an adequate review for this book.

fourth wing didn't really get a hold on me until the end when everything began to unravel. iron flame had me from the BEGINNING. this damn book. rebecca yarros has an amazing ability in writing that made me literally cry, want to throw shit because of how angry i am, feel the pain that violet felt, and had me to relate to all of the characters. i wish i would've read this series earlier- but then again i'm glad i waited until now so that i didn't have to wait for iron flame to release- but then again i wish i would've waited to read this series so that i wouldn't be in the predicament i am in right now (impatiently waiting for onyx storm to release). basically this book made me feel every emotion that occurred in it and i am so glad i took the time to read it. both badass and sexy- probably one of the best novels i've read that has my perfect balance of romance and action. absolutely a five star book and i commend rebecca yarros for her wonderful creation that is the empyrean series <3

A good kind of romantic slow burn that has the perfect amount of action, humour, and violence to add to the intensity of the story. Loved this book and cannot wait to start the next one!

For a dark romance, I did actually enjoy reading this one. I love fairy tale retellings and this was no different! Good spice, was a quick read, and entertaining! Enjoyed it.

Was mainly disappointed because I was told the book would be scarier than the movie. Maybe because I'm a bit of a horror snob I was not scared at all, but nonetheless Gaiman's classic storytelling made this a quick read. Coraline will always be one of my favorite stories, so I'm glad I read this!

This was quite a journey. Definitely a classic for a reason and was very challenging to read. I had to lock in a lot, but I still loved the story nonetheless!

I really wanted to like this book! I am going to reread it soon. I was falsely told that it was a fluffy romance- and that was exactly what I was looking for since I had just finished reading Dune (the densest of dense). Alas, it was not that and had a lot more depth to it. Since I was just not expecting it, I didn't love it that much. Will reread!

This was such a cutie story! I loved Sarah Dessen's writing and the summer setting was perfect. I loved the romance and the coming of age young adult element.

i ended up finishing this book faster than i thought i would, and i'm glad i read it :) this was definitely a heart wrencher, and very unexpected from how i expected it to go . but i liked where it went ! a good read <3

I really liked this book! Though I had to read it for AP Lit, I was enamored by the teaching of culture and differences that were so unlike mine. I've never read a novel like this one before, and I'm glad I read it.

For a Colleen Hoover book, this one was actually okay! She always does really good plot twists, and this one had plenty of those. I did enjoy reading it.

Wasn't a fan of this one. Story was strangely written, didn't have a lot of depth, and was a little too YA for me. YA meaning, young adult cringe writing.. Wouldn't read it again. And, I can't even imagine why there would be 5 more books after this one lol

ernest cline is probably the best sci fi author i've ever read books from , and this book was pretty awesome. the only thing i didn't love was the ending - it felt sorta rushed and hurt my heart a little when i realized that xavier actually died and wasn't coming back :( but all in all it was a great book and a worthwhile read :)

I did really enjoy this book, but man does Nesta piss me off. I like to see the expansion of characters that are not dependent on Feyre and Rhysand for once, though. So sad this series is over :(

This was such a cute addition to the ACOTAR series. A nice little break in between two very big novels. Wish it was a full length book!

I actually really enjoyed this book! It was a little hard to read, but Simon Artmitage did a great job of translating it and making it his own. I loved the story and it was one of the most fun books we had to read for AP Lit.
