El Reinado de las Sombras by Susana R. presta My rating: 3 of 5 stars El libro en si es muy corto. La historia sonaba muy interesante, más de una vez me hubiese gustado que expandiera mucho más en lo acontecido durante un tiempo. Por desgracia queriendo abarcar todo lo que abarcó en tan pocas...

Magic’s Pawn by Mercedes Lackey
Magic's Pawn by Mercedes Lackey My rating: 3 of 5 stars The story was catching and very interesting, I really liked it in the sense of story, though I must admit I disliked the writing style. Still, it was not the worse I have read, and once I got used to it I could get... Continue Reading →
Castle in the Air by Diana Wynne Jones
Castle in the Air by Diana Wynne Jones My rating: 5 of 5 stars This is a sequel to Howl's Moving Castle, and like it, it doesn't fail to deliver it's funny moments. The setting is slightly different, however, as it reminds you more of something just out of 1001 Nights. There's even appearances of... Continue Reading →
The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was read mostly out of obligation, while I liked the story and all, I can't help but feel no sympathy for hobbits. My neighbor first introduced me to J.R.R. Tolkien's writing- I wanted to read Lord of The Rings, but he insisted (and... Continue Reading →
La Saga de los Confines (Trilogía) by Liliana Bodoc
La saga de los Confines by Liliana Bodoc My rating: 5 of 5 stars I can't say how much I love this trilogy. I bought all three in a whim, and when I learned the author had previously only made children books, I thought I would be disappointed, but I was not. I don't regret my... Continue Reading →
The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss
The Name of the Wind (Kingkiller Chronicle) by Patrick Rothfuss My rating: 2 of 5 stars This book had a very, very long and unnecessary prologue. I kept reading in the hopes that something good would happen, but nope. Nothing happened. At all. I mean, sure, there were kids fighting and a some sort of maybe... Continue Reading →
Gifts by Ursula K. Le Guin
Gifts (Annals of the Western Shore) by Ursula K. Le Guin My rating: 4 of 5 stars The first part was a little strange- the way it seemed to begin one way to jump right into a story-mode flashback... and how at the end it didn't seem like an "end" to the flashback itself, but instead... Continue Reading →
Fire by Kristin Cashore
Fire by Kristin Cashore My rating: 2 of 5 stars I found it rather disappointing, the end felt a bit rushed and the addition of the one "bad guy" made no sense (as in, I felt the story would've worked just the same without it, and it was pointless and forgotten for more than half the... Continue Reading →
Ico by Miyuki Miyabe
Ico: Castle in the Mist by Miyuki Miyabe My rating: 4 of 5 stars Note: This book is based on a videogame by the same name for the PS2. While it's not necessary to have played the game to understand the book, it does provide background for the story told there and is recommended to... Continue Reading →
Dragonsbane by Barbara Hambly
Vencer al Dragón by Barbara Hambly My rating: 4 of 5 stars More like 4 1/2, really.I wasn't very into it at the beginning, but then halfway through I really started to enjoy it a lot more and ended up loving it.However, my edition sucked. Lots of commas in really weird places and such editorial... Continue Reading →
