I read The Sword of Kaigen by M.L. Wang and I was intrigued!

The Sword of Kaigen by M.L. Wang My rating: 5 of 5 stars I was not going to give 5 stars to this book, because I had a lot of issues going through the first 60% of it. There are some poorly executed transitions between timelines in the first few chapters. In the end, the story seemed to open a new arc that would never close... Still, regardless of its flaws, this is an absolute masterpiece. Very clumsy, but still a masterpiece. The action is like Avatar: The Last Airbender on steroids. If you liked the concept of elemental bending, you'd see it go to its full extent in this book. The characters were so real and heavy, and the story was so dark. Still, the author managed to wrap up the story in a way that warms your heart. It's impossible to read the book without feeling pissed off at Takeru for the most significant part of the fucking book.

I read Frankenstein by Marry Shelley

  Frankenstein by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley My rating: 4 of 5 stars I loved reading this classic. I started randomly after noticing it was free to read classics via Kindle, and I was in for a ride. I absolutely loved Frankenstein, the creature he created, and their relationship. There was a lot of word repetition, which would not meet the standards of today's industries. Overall it was an enjoyable experience, and it felt somewhat up-to-date even though it is a book written in the 1800s. View all my reviews

A Dance With Dragons by George R. R. Martin is the best book of A Song of Ice and Fire so far!

A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin My rating: 5 of 5 stars I just finished reading A Dance With Dragons, and A Song of Ice and Fire has officially become my favorite fantasy series. Finding words to describe such an intense and powerful reading experience is hard. Over the past months, I have lived the Song of Ice and Fire, experiencing each page with more joy than I could ever expect. I have never read such a long series, and it has been worth the effort. A Dance With Dragons was the best book of the series by far, and it's amazing how intriguing the plot has become. I now join the group of people who wait for The Winds of Winter, uncertain of when it will be released, but reassured that once it's out there, it will be great. Thanks, George R. R. Martin, for creating this world that pulled me in and made me find a place to escape where I could find joy in fantasy. Night gathers, and now my watch begins. View all my reviews
