Great shorts to continue the Paolini world. I enjoyed each of the three. It is nice to dip back into the Inheritance Cycle after years away from it. I look forward to the next collection of stories.

A classic indeed. I look forward to reading this story with my children this coming season. So filled with lessons of kindness and love, with charity and warmth, it is. This is a tale to be read each year, to be reflected on, remembered and acted upon. A wonderful story. Reading it has been better than all the various movie versions.

Cute twist on the Hercules story. I enjoyed how much Hades was involved in this one. It's fun to read these tales from his point of view. My kids have begun reading this series and I think they will enjoy this book when they get to it. I love the discussion and writing prompts at the back, they will make for great learning tools.

Interesting.

I enjoyed the various and numerous facts within this book. Due to many piquing my curiosity I have done my own research while reading. It is fun to have a book that causes more exploration and learning.

Phenomenally honest book about a life filled with secret trials. All the pain, suffering, and trauma that happened behind closed doors, deep within a soul, unshared, is heart wrenching. This collection of stories was incredibly insightful. I have a deeper understanding of a religion that has always baffled me. Moist importantly, having gone through some similar/parallel experiences I both saw myself in Ms. Gay's journey to self acceptance and finding her strength. Upon finishing all I can say is brava! Here is to a better future than the past, filled with love, happiness, and support. Well done Heather Gay. Well done.

I read this to my kiddo, he says it's cute, cuddle, sweet and soft. He like this one very much. He looked at the pictures enraptured. The words are written in a lyrical way that making reading and listening rather entrancing. We both enjoyed this story.

Quick shifter smut. Cute short story with just the right amount of intrigue and danger.

Gritty and often raw, entirely captivating story. I enjoyed learning the history of Kyoshi as well as the two avatars that preceded her. The depth of feeling was moving. The political intrigue was interesting and kept me guessing. The tale sets up what will unfold in "Avatar The Last Airbender" TV series. This was a good second book in a wonderful duo that drives deep into the lore of Avatar. I will likely read this again with my kids one day when they are teens.

At this moment in my life this is one of the most important books I have read. Liz Cheney and her staff did phenomenal work. The book is fact full and informative. I have a greater understanding of what happened on Jan. 6th 2021 as well as the months leading up to it. The time since, in which the Select Committee did their job so thoroughly, was also covered in great detail. I appreciate knowing Liz Cheney's personal stance, opinions, experiences in her own words... I am amazed and proud to be from her state of Wyoming. Her unwaivering defense of the United States Constitution is one of the greatest acts of patriotism I have witnessed.

Well done Liz, well done.

This is an ok little book for kiddos. Not great. Not terrible.
