Creatures: The Legacy of Frankenstein
David Thomas Moore, Tade Thompson, Kaaron Warren, Paul Meloy, Rose Biggin, Emma Newman
My Rating : 3.5🌟 overall for all the stories
.
Will upload the individual stories's soon!
This book is a collection of 5 stories which have Frankenstein as one of their ideas! And boy oh boy was it entertaining!
The first thing I loved about this book is how each story is unique in its own way and in no way related to the actual classic! It may have the concept of Frankenstein but never in a same way! Each story had its charm and I absolutely loved that fact!
Second of all, it's no wonder I loved this book, I am a fan of horror/thriller and this book was right up my alley!
As I said before, each story was different! And if you look even closer, you can classify them into different genre! Especially I loved the last 2 stories! You can call them realistic horror fiction! And they were amazing! Since it's a collection of stories by different authors, you can almost identify the writing style.
Though I loved few, I had issues with few. Overall, I loved the concept and how the stories were written. If you a fan of retellings, gothoc fiction, horror or thrillers, definitely give this book a shot!

I love the illustrations in this book! It's not your usual story, but it shows the impact and the differences through these illustrations.. They speak through the colours.. And I definitely can understand what they are going through on a daily basis and made me appreciate life even more
.
But I do feel like the price of the book does not match the content it has and I personally do not think it's fair. But definitely recommend this book. At least read it once.

First of all, as all of you already know, the world is amazing, it has an amazing bunch of characters and the writing is also good. And obviously I loved the book. .
Second, I can actually see how awkward Ginny must feel around Harry and I crack up every time 😂
.
With that being said, I personally feel the movie was better than this book. I felt the ending was too abrupt & sudden, and I would have liked to see some struggle behind finding & destroying *the person* & *the other person* in the chambers. It did not make me sit at the edge of the seat and wish everything should work out fine. .
But other than that, I seriously enjoyed this book, and I am glad I finally picked this up. It's still not my favourite, and I don't know if I have passed that HP phase, but I will complete the series no matter what & let you guys know!!

This book is really a heartwarming collection of very short stories by various authors. The topics ranges from friendship, acceptance, love, society, family, trust, and covers a lot more serious topics as well! And what better way to portray the emotions than just a single line? The amount of emotions that line holds has larger impact on the audience than the paragraphs spent on explaining them elsewhere.
It was definitely very emotional, but funny as well at times. It definitely is a rollercoaster of emotions and I would definitely recommend you pick it up and just experience the power of a single line. A must read for everyone.

An infestation that can eat magic. Sweepers(Non-magic humans) who die before they finish their training to kill the infestations. And now the last set of sweepers stand between the city and a massive infestation that threatens the whole city.
.
First of all, I love the concept of how the world was set. It definitely paved way to the ending smoothly. Second, I loved the character Clay! He is the only character I ended up loving in the whole book. Amazing mixture of sarcasm, sass, authority yet has a soft spot deep down.
.
I read the blurb of the story and imagined Laura would be only one alive to fight all the infestations, and kept looking forward to the death of all the others sweepers. Second, the world building was in such a way that you get confused after a point of time as to why certain things are happening. I would say the major let down for me was the repetitive scenes with how the infestations work. For almost 70% of the book Laura was just as clueless as you are, and acts as a shadow behind Clay ( The head Guy). And then suddenly she is the only one left to save the city with just 20% left in the book.
.
I would have liked to have some more build up to the ending. It happened s fast that you don’t get to understand what is happening unless you read very slow. I felt that few scenes could have been a lot less detailed to pave way for a good path to the ending. If you are a fan of magic systems, complicated characters, good friendship and a good ending , try this book.

Okay I didn't read this book with the thought of reviewing it. I just wanted to enjoy the story and fall in love with the characters. It is definitely safe to say I loved the book as much as I loved the movie! The book actually piqued my interest, and definitely will be continuing with the series now that I have discovered about the characters more!
.
The plotline was really good and I absolutely loved the conversations between the trio!! *RANT* I actually feel bad for Hermoine and she practically spent the whole year alone with her extra credits and books just because of Ron's ego 🙄🙄 That girl is goals. Seriously *RANT OVER*
.
Overall , lovely characters, good character development, the plot was good. I still had few issues, but I still enjoyed the book!!

This book is a really short rendering of how the brain of a Grammar Nazi works. * The author provided me with a digital copy in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own and is not influenced*
.
Okay first of all, I loved this concept of thriller. It sounds pretty funny when you hear the name of the book, but it deals with a really gruesome topic! The concept of having a chat with a serial killer and getting to know how thy work was quite interesting I would say, but feels futuristic as well. And that ending! The killer has had 16 such serial killer incidents with a really unrealistic back story and reason to commit such hideous crimes. Since it's really short, you do not get to involve into the story and get invested with the characters enough to mourn their horrible deaths. But, the perks of it is it falls under the category of a dark humor which might be even worse to be honest.
.
And Omg the methods she used for all the killings! In spite of all the gruesome details, you find it really funny! Overall I realled enjoyed the 38 pages of gruesome dark humor and I wish it was a little longer though!
