My only complaint about this book, other than the amount of tissues I went through, was that while I was somewhat satisfied with the ending, it seemed somewhat abrupt in my opinion. Other than that, there was not one thing I didn’t absolutely love about this book. I fell in love with both the beautiful writing and lifelike characters. I sincerely hope this is the first of many books by this author because I found the writing both beautiful and profound. I particularly enjoyed the way the two storylines were beautifully interwoven. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone and won’t forget this book and it’s awesome cast of characters for a really long time!

While I liked the first book in this duology more, A Curse Carved in Bone kept me captivated the whole time and had a twist I did not expect coming at all.

I liked how it showed how people lived a long time ago in the old days. I didn't like the pictures as much as some other books.

I like how she used old things to make something new

The Way I Used To Be was heartbreaking. The plot, characters, and what eventually happens broke me. The main character, Eden was once a spirited young girl until Kevin, her brother's best friend really r her. This is a story that should be shared throughout. The message is clearly worthy. For Eden, that pushed down trauma only hurt her more. She runs away from herself and all she's ever known - her family, friends, home. Her high schools years abruptly shift, until it's too unbearable. It frustrated me because of her silence. She never told anyone. I know that this book taught me a lot.

This had me going back and forth trying to guess what the ending was going to be the entire time! It kept me hooked!

You will love this book if you like The Red Queen series and the Hunger Games. It is a great enemies to lovers novel, a wonderful adventure and a very addicting book.

The best book ever read ON PLANET EARTH

Excellent book with a very unique story. I would want everyone to read it. Imagine traveling the country with 2 giraffes. And it's based on a true story! Makes it even more unique and fun!

This was not my favorite book because I’m not really interested in planets.
