Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

This book is a magical mystery! Riggs puts just the right amount of everything into an original story! I have never before read about a plot like this (which makes it all the more spectacular.) The characters are all unique and each one brilliant. At first I thought "this is taking a bit long to get to the point." (I am one of them people that need the action to kick right off at the start) I soon discovered that this was necessary and amazing! I must insist that you (whoever is reading this) go and find yourself a copy and start to read immediately (or at least as soon as you have time.) This book has fire, flying, birds, monsters, invisible boys, and that is not even the best part (of which I can not tell!) Just writing this has made me want to go out and buy the second one again (meaning I already went out and bought it, the second, no before, I finished this amazing book!) Did I already mention the fact it is magical? Yep! Well then, I don't see what more you need! Go and get this book!

Hello there!

Sorry I ain't wrote a review today! Tomorrow I will be starting to read Dangerous Deception by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl so as soon as that is finished (which knowing me, will not take long) I will review while still fresh in the brain. Here's to hoping the old Rid is back!! (See the double explanation mark? That means business)
I can not believe it has took me till now to purchase this book, I was meant to in may. I hope this ain't a bad sign (of how pi***d I was at rid not being rid lol) anyway enjoy your night/day, while I ponder which new books to fit my selves with *sigh* (hardwork) *swipe forehead*
In the meantime why not check out my dangerous creatures (not so dangerous in my opinion, I find beautiful creatures to be more lethal) review - http://lovefantasyfantasylove.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/dangerous-creatures-by-kami-garcia-and.html

Twenty-eight and a half wishes by Denise Grover Swank

Okay so I found it a bit strange at first I must admit (why would any 24 year old let their mother control them into having no life is beyond me) that being said I kind of get the point to it now. Without it there would be no story if I'm honest. Rose have forever let everyone control her, in other words she never stands up for herself. She also has visions, ridiculous vision that she conciders useless and that ain't the worse part, she blurts out what ever her vision is, no matter where she is. Nightmare! This I thought was quirky.  When one day she has a vision that changes her life forever. Her own death. Of course things only get worse when someone dies in her place. Dun, dun, dun! But then Rose meets Joe her next door neighbour. Hot, fit, Joe. Who is mysterious. It all goes tits-up from here. This book is fun, dangerous and damn right amazing at times. Detective crime story with a twist is how I would describe it. I love all the characters, I love Denise's writing style. If you're looking for a fun love story this is it.  http://www.amazon.co.uk/Twenty-Eight-Half-Wishes-Gardner-Mystery-ebook/dp/B0058UXHHK/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1441462195&sr=8-12

Shiver Cove part 1 tamyra by TJ Shortt

Okay so I've been meaning to review this for a while. I first heared of these book because I have the author on google+ and seen her post about them a few times. So because god loves a trier, I decided to give them a go. So let's start by saying - the teenage girl in me was in love. (It is easy reading, or for me it was, but that right there is part of the teenage love) I really felt for the main going through all the normal stuff most teenagers go through like bullying, growing into a women, turning into a werewolf you know that kind of stuff. So I was pleased when mother dearest ups and moves tamyra to Shiver Cove, where her werewolf aunt has no worries. She makes some great friends who make you wonder what other supernatural stuff is going on In this place and let us not mention no beast. I can not write anything else I do not wish to spoil anyones read. I would most definitely suggest you teenagers give it a go. Also those who are still teenagers at heart. That being said dreams are only real if you make them and TJ Shortt has made them. Go ahead and have a go http://www.amazon.co.uk/Shiver-Cove-Part-1-Tamyra-ebook/dp/B00YHOWFP8/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8 The first part is free so even if it's not for you it's worth the try, you might just enjoy it! As for me I think I might read part two as we speak......

coincidence or just plain strange....

After writing The Shepherd's crown review (if it can be called a review) I clicked on the dashboard to see if anyone had read it. It was here that I noticed I have written 41 posts. The last being the end of discworld novels - The Shepherd's Crown - which just happens to be the number 41 in the discworld series. To be honest I couldn't be more thrilled (weird of me? I know) this seems fitting to me after loving the discworld for so long. Infact I don't even remember the point I was making now because my mind have gone back thinking of the amazing story. Anyway have a nice day all of you. May you make it ridiculously amazing! *waves with a slanted smile*

The Shepherd's Crown by Terry Pratchett

How can I do this book the justice it deserves? I loved seeing into the way, as a writer Terry worked, the process if you like. Yes it might of been better if he were able to finish it, but I think it is perfect for the end, his end, the discworlds end! I can't possibly begin to tell you how sad, happy, excited, on the edge on my seat, then sad again I was throughout this book! Discworld will and have forever been a favourite of mine. On that score let me begin.
A main character dies (or not dies, depending how you see it), times 'a' changing! There will also be a reckoning! Yes there god damn will....
Tiffany Aching has big boots to fill, possibly the biggest in Pratchett's last ever Discworld novel *cries so hard* *big gaping sobs*.
The elves are back in force and every witch must and will fight to keep the peace on the disc. THERE WILL BE A RECKONING!
You know I really haven't got one thing I would change or complain about (I never have with Terry Pratchett novels) all I have to say is read it. READ THEM ALL!
I myself like to think of Terry as the Granny Weatherwax of fantasy, by that I mean I believe he is the unsaid leader of Fantasy Authors (no offence to any author/reader who don't agree.)
There is not one thing he can't make funny, not even death. That is some skill. Although sad to have read the last ever disc novel, I go forth knowing I have 41 brilliant novels on my shelves that I can pick up at anytime and know they will bring joyous laughter!
Where is Terry now? To quote You! Meow...vrywhere!
The end.

Lameness

So it turns out I'm not a very consistent person! Sorry for that....
I really, really haven't found much new fantasy that I am even remotely interested in, soooo, I have been reading alot (and I mean alot) of non fantasy (which I can hardly review about on a fantasy review blog) *sigh*. On a plus, I have just won most times fantasy has been used in one post award (I'm so very happy to win, and all that s@*t).....
Maybe I should change the name of this blog right here to 'A little bit of everything including (yep you guessed it) FANTASY!' Anyway I shall try to make it up to any might be reader. Starting first thing tomorrow! Good day to you all *waves dramatically*.
