The Undying by Ethan Reid
3.0
Got a copy of this book via Netgalley, in exchange for an honest review.
At first; I really like the genre of this book. And I like the fact that the writer is not scared to kill some of the main characters.
Now I've finished the book, It's still covered in mystery, so I would defenately read the second book.
The story started really well, the middle just had me with really big questions sometimes (that's why I gave it 3 stars) and the ending was nice as well.
Some doubts;
In the middle the characters just start swearing out of nowhere, for some pages.
I really don't understand the choice of taking a baby with you, when you know the father is as good as dead.
Why is everybody mad at the Americans? That's something that I can't wrap my mind about too.
Poor choice to start the book with the ending, you know exactly who lives and who dies.
Like I said, some parts were really weird to me, poor choices, but I liked the story overall and would read the second book to get some answers.

Jaxson by Alisa Woods

This is a light, quick read.
Strong characters and a great writing style.
Love the angles and little secrets in this book.
I would describe it as an erotic, romantic, action-paced, fantasy book.
Deffinately gonna read #2; Jace.

The Course of Love by Alain de Botton
4.0
Love.. A word with so many aspects. Not a word that you can explain very simple, that's what this book shows you.
There is a nice explanation for some behavior that people show. And also lessons about your own feelings.
A great book when you're in a longer relationship, or when you had a relationship that failed.
A great book to show you how to treat the people that you love.
A book that show's you, there is not 1 way to love someone.
For people who don't want to "stand still" in life, but for people who want to keep learning and evolving. For people who ask questions about life, love and the other person in your relationship.

This book took me almost two months to finish. I don't really know why it took me so long to get through. It is the main reason that I give this book 2 stars.
The story overall is very unique, I've never seen a story like this one. There is a lot going on in this book, I think you could make 3 movies out of it, and I don't know if that's a good thing, because the book is action paced but never exciting enough to me. Maybe that is because of my age...
I also think this book would be better to read for kids below the age of 16 or maybe to read aloud in the classroom. I think I would enjoy it much better that way.
I gave the book 2 stars, because I think children will like this book and I can see potential in the story.
