I have read Peter Pan so many times I could probably put on my own play. I have seen every movie that has come out and enjoyed each one. The story is amazing. Peter Pan and Neverland are like my safe place. I have even read the book to my kids and enjoyed watching various versions with them and said I do believe in fairies I do I do right along with them!

I got this book from a thrift store when I was a teenager looking to move on from RL Stein. I think this started a weird time in my life where I would read anything by Stephen King. As an adult I cannot read horror books anymore but I would reread this book. I loved all the characters and the whole plot line. I was probably way to young to have read this but it also made Interview with a Vampire my next read because I had to find out about the Anne Rice comment LOL.

Meet the book that gave me nightmares as a child. I watched the movie first with my dad and I don't know why I thought oh yea I should read the book. My dad owned it at the time so I borrowed it from him. It took me forever to read because I kept having to put it away and then pick it up and keep going. You know that episode of friends where Joey puts the book in the freezer. That is exactly what you need to do with this book sometimes. Plus having the picture of Jack Nicholson in my mind while reading this book made it all the more terrifying. I don't think I could make it through this book as an adult who can no longer read horror without massive anxiety.

This book made be bawl my eyes out. Never have I cried at a book and enjoyed it like I did this book. Also never have I been so mad at a movie version of a book as I was at this one. If you liked this book I do not recommend watching the movie because they changed it drastically. I thought the ending of this book was beautiful and heart wrenching and perfect. A definite recommend.

This book is a true masterpiece. I loved every second and couldn't put it down. As someone who has family who have suffered from this it's such an amazing eye opening book. A must read for anyone!

Kaz Brekker got me out of a 9 year reading slump.

My daughter turns 10 this year and since she was born, I haven't been able to get my brain to focus enough on reading to finish anything I have tried to start that wasn't fanfiction. I was doing my usual scrolling on TikTok and stumbled somehow into "BookTok" and this book was recommended a ton. I looked it up on Amazon and decided why not give it a go. I didn't do enough research into this to know that I should have started with the Shadow and Bone trilogy first but, oh well, what's done is done. I am the kind of chaos that reads things out of order anyways (I read the 4th Harry Potter book first and then went back and read the first three).

I was immediately hooked. I haven't gotten this invested in a universe since Harry Potter. I normally lean more towards the romantic aspect of fiction but this book is amazing. It was exciting, there was witty banter and every time you think things are going in one direction it ends up rearing right off course! The twists and turns and oh my!

Make sure you have a Crooked Kingdom handy because as soon as you are finished this you will need to dive right into the next one.

Since finishing this book I have read the entire Shadow and Bone Trilogy and a Crooked Kingdom and I have King of Scars and Rule of Wolves to read still. I cannot wait for the Netflix show to come out tomorrow!

Edited November 25, 2021: I just did a reread of Six of Crows but listened to the Audible version of the book this time! I have to say I enjoyed it even more and connected more to characters I did not connect to during the first read. This is definitely my favourite read of this year if not period. I highly recommend the audible version if you have not listened to it, it is fantastic! I still have not moved on to reading King of Scars because I am terrified of the feelings LOL.

This series was absolutely amazing. I already want to rearead it and it hasn't even been that long since I finished. Leigh Bardugo is now a ride or die author for me. I saw this series on TikTok and picked it up because of Kaz Brekker. I devoured the first book and the second book because Leigh Bardugo's writing pulled me in and kept me there. I will say I wasn't attached to Nina and Matthias as much as I was to the other crows until I watched the Netflix show and I loved them more from that. The ending felt a little I dunno how to describe it. The fact that all the characters made it out of everything they went through without any of them dying only to have Matthias die at the end felt a little upsetting. It didn't tear me up as much as it did others as I said because I didn't connect to their characters until after reading the books and watching the show. I will definitely reread this series and buy anymore if there are more books in this universe!

Edited to add after reread November 25, 2021: I reread this book this month but this time I listened to the Audible version and man it made me feel things the second time. I wasn't attached to Nina and Matthias the first read, but after watching the netflix show and listening to the audible version OMG I had the feels. I have not sat and cried, let alone that much, over a book ever. It was fantastic. I caught onto more things this time having read Shadow and Bone and watched the show that I did not catch on the first read. I will definitely be rereading many more times.

I read this book back when the movie came out. I absolutely loved it. I loved how it went from her first time meeting him to wrap around to his first time meeting her. The ending made my cry so hard I couldn't read the words on the page (and I don't cry often when reading books). I think I might need to reread this book soon. If you are a Dr Who fan at all and loved the story between River Song and Eleven you would like this book for sure! I thought it was such a unique story!

Oh my this book was amazing. As someone who reads way too much fanfiction between books this was exactly what I wanted. I was in a reading slump from reading two huge fantasy series and this got me right out of it. It was so light and funny and I enjoyed everything about it. The love story between Henry and Alex was so cute. The dialog in this book was so witty and funny and just my kind of humour and it had just the right amount of spice. I had to give it extra points for the conversation about "Joanne" and Remus being gay LOL!
