This book was hard to connect to because the main character refers to everyone around her as a title (ex:the husband, the daughter) and refers to no one by name. She is stuck in a less than perfect marriage and is treated as an outcast for her profession as a funeral cryer, which to many makes her bad luck. As soon as she seems to making some changes for her happiness the story kind of abruptly ends. I really wanted more from the ending. One thing I did appreciate about this book was the glimpse into Chinese culture at the time.

This is a great book! The series intrigued me alot and it was fun learning about Lunas adventure as the battle continues. We can all relate to Luna with her adventurous and courageous side. Overall it was great but not my favorite of the series

Awesome, amazing, intriguing, captivating.

I was proud of myself because I’m trying to read this book all by myself!

I got to meet the author of the Penderwick series and I got to ask questions like do you speak Latin because there was Latin in the Penderwicks? She said it was fun the add different languages into it but she doesn’t speak Latin. It was so cool to meet my favorite author in the world everyone should read her books and she has a new book The Library of Unruly Treasures

Frog and Toad get so confused. It is very funny

Another typical Gabriel Allon book. This one was very long though. There is a lot of information about the Temple Mount and history that makes you wonder how much is true.

Good for kids staring manga

I’m a HUGE Amanda Lovelace fan, so I came in with big expectations and was not disappointed. So great! Collection of 3 Fairytale inspired books in one. Not sure what the final one is inspired by but still great! I read Flower Crowns and Fearsome things right before this and it was lacking, so this restored my confidence in her works. Great read!

I loved this book. It was like a walk down memory lane as he describes the roles he did and his journey through Hollywood.
