Review:
If Sophie Jordan writes something, odds are I'm going to
love it. And (surprise) REIGN OF SHADOWS is no exception. I love dark fairy
tale retellings and couple that with a favorite author? Bookish Heaven!
RoS is one of those books you just know you're gonna love
from the first chapter. Luna is a total rockstar and I loved reading about her,
rooting for her, and cheering for her. She's overcome a lot in her short life,
but she has this effervescent spirit that refuses to die. She's a total badass.
Fowler is every bit as swoony as a girl could hope for. I
loved watching as Luna broke through all of his defenses and he allowed himself
to open up.
It's kind of shocking how much is covered in this book (I
mean, it's a little on the small side). Despite that, I found all the
characters, plot, and world building (oh, the WORLD BUILDING) to be really
solid. I can't wait for the next book.
Seriously. Can I have it now?

So ready to read this one. Everyone is raving about it in their reviews.
ReplyDeleteFew weeks ago my girlfriend told me that she was fed up, so she packed her stuff and left me while I was taking a walk to cool off. When I got back, I was so messed up because I didn't even know what to do, it was like my whole life was coming to an end. That night I drove to a friend’s house and he was nice enough to give me a description of a man who did spells that could bring her back for me. He said this man brought her fiancée back to him after 2days. The man's email is emutemple@gamil.com, it was this man that then did a spell and brought Claire back to my life. She was now so humble and calm, she was respectful and lovely even more than i can imagine. This man is really strong and accountable. I never regret anything through him. meet him if you need help in your love life. visit his website you may find your solution there https://emutemple.wordpress.com/
