From now on, when a book series is complete, there will be a Series Analysis describing the general idea of the series. The analyses will also include the average rating of all the books from this website and from goodreads.com. Single of stand alone books will not be getting series analyses because there would be no series to analyze. Series with finished reviews before this date won't get an analysis. This only includes the "Entangled" series. I hope they give you a general idea of the series before you dive in.
I just finished the final book in the "School for Good and Evil" trilogy by Soman Chainani. This series is a must read for everyone. In each book, the friendship the main characters, Sophie and Agatha, is tested against Good and Evil. Soman Chainiani explores what it truely means to be Good or Evil and this is especially evident in the conclusion to the trilogy. The final book in the series came out last week. It is beautiful. No matter what I write in a review, I can never do the book justice. All I can say is that everyone must read this book. |
About MeI'm a student who loves to read. I read about 3 books a week and find writing about books almost as fun as reading them. My favorite books are YA books, so that is the majority of the kind of books that will be on this blog. Archives
