Eon Dragoneye Reborn

Image
Eon Dragoneye Reborn by Alison Goodman I don't have this book laying around right now to take a picture with, because I recommended it to my sister (who is now reading it I believe!) So I found a picture of the cover on google instead.  I originally checked this book out believing it was the first book in a series which my brother gave me the 5th book of, I read it and then realized I had been wrong but I'm glad I found this book. I immensely enjoyed the story, the world, and the characters. I absolutely love Dragons, and so I was immediately attracted to the cover! The claws holding the disk-like object was intriguing. I like how red was the most-used color on the cover, since this has significant weight in the book. Pros: Good characters, amazing background, story moves forward at a good pace Cons: None that I can think of at the moment, other than several parts of the book where I felt like tearing my hair out at some of Eon's actions.

Monster Blood Tattoo, Book Three: Factotum

Factotum D.M. Cornish Since I've already covered the reasons why I checked this book out and you already know I loved the first book, I'll just cut to the chase on this one! In this one Rossamund goes to work for the Branden Rose. This is also the last book in the series, so as you can guess quite a lot happens! I loved this one because of the new characters and events that take place in this one. Pros: Characters were well-written. Seemed fairly understandable.  Cons: Left me wanting more. Sometimes things happened a little too fast or slow, but I still enjoyed it! Because of this, I give it 4 stars out of 5. I loved Rossamund and the Branden Rose, even though I didn't like some things that happened. I'd still recommend it to any friends who enjoy reading about monsters and monster hunters!  Enjoy Reading! <3Claire
