WEEKEND WITH THE KIDS!

Saturday, June 23, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

This is my weekend meme that I thought would be fun. It's book reviews done by my kids. Some may be older books, some new. Kids read too! Enjoy!

Artemis Fowl (Artemis Fowl, Book 1) By Eion Colfer ( May 4, 2002)

Reviewed by Kye Phennicie (My son)

Artemis Fowl is about a boy named Artemis Fowl II who is the son of one of the world's top criminals, Artemis Fowl the first.

When Artemis's father goes missing , Artemis has to become the family man. The family finances start to plummet and so Artemis who is also one of the smartest masterminds of this century plans to kidnap a fabled creature called a fairy. But it turns out fairies are real and Artemis catches a fairy named Holly Short, and keeps the elf for ransom, but when the police come for her Artemis has a big problem on his hands!

*Synopsis by Kye Phennicie*

Kye's thoughts:
I personally liked this book because it was full of fantasy. It's well blended with modern day time to seem almost real. But my favorite part was the action of this book. It was really exciting and got my heart beating.

I would definitely recommend this book to someone who loves fantasy!

GET ME OFF THE SHELF!

Thursday, June 21, 2012 | Posted by Unknown |

Get Me Off The Shelf! is my edition of The Review Pile from*Stepping Out of the Page*hosted by Stephanie. This will be a weekly meme on Thursdays.

The aim of this meme is to showcase books that you own but haven't yet got around to reading, in order to give the book some extra publicity. I thought it'd be helpful to readers/reviewers as well as publishers/authors to try and showcase books that you own but haven't had time to get around to.

This week I'm spotlighting:

Deadlocked by Charlaine Harris

I just don't know why I haven't read this book yet. I was all hyped about getting it and love the Sookie Stackhouse Series!

This is what happens I think, I get so wrapped up in the show True Blood that is based off of the books, so it kind of knocks off the edge for me. I don't know.

I'm a, pick the book that I'm in the mood for moment, kind of reader.

So share what's you need to get off your bookshelf, or floor, or box . . .

Fifty Shades Freed by E.L. James

Publisher Date: April 17, 2012

Publisher: Vintage; Reprint edition

Pages: 592; Paperback

My gosh! How I already miss Christian ... and Ana. This book had me laughing, angry, talking to myself, and crying. But I love happy endings, and that I am grateful for. The cover of the book with the handcuffs, I feel signifies Christian being release from his past, moving on if you will. And of course using those cuffs on Ana a few times. Oh what joy!

If you can handle a lot of raunchy sex and lots of it and the "F" bombs through out, then this is the book for you.
I actually tried to put off reading this book because I was not yet ready to let it go, but my need to read it won out and I am sad to say I finished the book

It was wonderful to see the characters grow and change. I like that it had a little suspense and mystery too. What a brilliant idea that after the story ended, the author gave us a glimpse of how Christian felt and was thinking when he first laid eyes on Anastasia.

Do yourself a favor and read this series, you will be glad you did. I can't wait to see what this author creates next. Please E. L. James come out with another book soon!
