I believe they were D reads for me.

You can have a funny book, a joyous book, a fun toned book but don't you also need a base, a solid idea and execution? This was too silly, too careless.<br />This is nothing like her dragon series as GA Aiken. I can't even believe it's the same author...because the fun? It does happen on her dragon series. And it works. And it's well done! <br />Amazing how it doesn't happen the same here. <br />Oh well, other stories await.<br />Hugs!S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12010038911071421007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2570507407569672764.post-25592243889493616342015-02-19T10:32:12.654+00:002015-02-19T10:32:12.654+00:00Who knows, Jennifer?

I do enjoy the Dragon Kin books so I'll probably give this a try someday. I'll just be prepared. :)Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03717325098424976925noreply@blogger.com
