Bonni's Book Reviews

A Feast for Crows
By: George R.R. Martin

So I just finished reading the fourth book in the "Song of Ice and Fire" series, A Feast for Crows, and of course I loved it. As for reviewing it, I don't even know how to start. It is a very long and in depth book that has a ton going on. So... you should just read the whole series for yourself, or watch the TV show, or read the graphic novel. Honestly anyone who doesnt know what Game of Thrones is HAS to be living under a rock. George R.R. Martin does a great job with bringing this magical and wonderful series to so many kinds of media. I have seen all of the TV series so far, I have read the first volume in the graphic novels, I have seen some of the video game, and I obviously have read most of the original book series. I amazes me just how different each of these forms of media are even though it is the same overall story, slight changes in how characters are portrayed or represented can make a huge difference! My biggest example for this is Catelyn Stark. In the book I find her to be a WAY obnoxious and overbearing mother who seems to bring all of her problems on herself where as in the TV show I can see her more as a loving mother who just wants to try and help her family and in the graphic novel, so far as I have read, Catelyn is just a jealous bitch. Anyway I am getting way off topic haha moral of the story is Game of Thrones is awesome!

Anyone who knows me knows that I love anything to do with zombies. But I've already talked in length about my love for zombies in my Warm Bodies Review. So, when I went on vacation this week, you can imagine that I was looking for a good zombie story to enjoy while sitting by the pool. And I can confidently tell you that I found it.

Bonni so graciously allowed me to write a review of a book I just finished reading so, I wrote up a review for her blog. I hope you all enjoy it.

Paprika is a science fiction book that was written in 1993 by Yasutaka Tsutsui. It first came to my attention when I watched the film adaptation Paprika last year. I'm someone who always loves to read books then watch the adaptations and see the differences, etc. And this instance was no different. I went and saw the movie, then immediately bought the book (mainly because I enjoyed the movie so much.)

Okay, so when was the las time that you read a book that you never wanted to put down? I haven't read one like that in a long time. I have read great books, don't get me wrong, but that doesn't mean I couldn't put them down. The Girl Who Would be King by Kelly Thompson was captivating from beginning to end. I can't think of anything really like it. First of all it is about girl superheroes which like never happens, and when it does they are just super slutty big boobed amazon women or something similar. A lot of the people who read this already know how I feel about girl superheroes haha. This is different though. This is almost a coming of age/superhero/awesomeness story.
