The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black
1.0
Everytime I remember this book I come back to goodreads and remove one star.
Why does everybody love this so much? I don't get it.
Did I somehow read this wrong?
Nothing personal with Holly Black...just saying.

Outstanding reboot to one of Marvel's most iconic superheroes. Cool-ass artwork and awesome storyline that undertakes the battle between science and magic. Can't wait fot the rest!
Angela: Asgard's Assassin Vol. 1: Priceless by Kieron Gillen, Marguerite Bennett
4.0
4.5!****
My favorite new Marvel hero.
Kieron Gillen, writer for The Wicked and The Divine, has again done such an excellent job giving his characters so much life and power.
The development for Angela's story was very detailed and showed how perfect she is for this new universe.
Loved the cameos of Loki, Thor and others... I Am Groot ;)
And can't forget the amazing artwork. *thumbs up*
Looking forward to start "Angela: Queen of Hel".

Farandula by Marta Sanz
2.0
Un discurso que cautiva con una adjetivación grandilocuente. Lamentablemente los personajes se descarrilan y chocan entre sí; causando un aturdimiento en el lector y una distorsión en el mensaje que quiere llevar Marta del ahora. De todas maneras un gran juego de palabras con personajes curiosos.
All the Birds in the Sky by Charlie Jane Anders
4.0
4.5*!
This novel breaks literary boundaries, commercial formulas and it's just something else on its own.
Charlie's prose, even though mostly simplistic, is necessary. The same way this book is necessary. With a mix of every genre out there, All The Birds In The Sky still touches the most important of them all, humanity. And what it means to live in a world so fantastical yet so realistic.
With characters full of flaws and doubts that stumble upon unforeseen events, the author has delivered a stunning novel that speaks only truths and defies the reader's accustomed mind.

Ruined by Amy Tintera

I'm glad I got to finish this.
This is one über cool, high-stakes, revenge-driven fantasy story that takes place in a Spanish-influenced world. Fun and fast paced.
And one main character that breaks YA formulas for not being your typical lady in distress.
Amy Tintera sure knows how to write action and how to make her characters suffer. (Points to that last scene).

NYPD Red 3 by Marshall Karp, James Patterson

I love the way these books keep me reading. It's such an easy, cool and fast read.
This one, specifically, is a solid addition to the series. Same awesome twists and thrilling moments.
Absolutely; James is not the next author to win a literature award. But he surely knows how to -- write? buy? or whatever he does-- deliver a movie-like read that makes one a happy reader.
