Review: The Law of Attraction

The Law of Attraction The Law of Attraction by N.M. Silber
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Decent Read.

Gabby was fun, exasperating and crazy to a T. She was this seriously eccentric chick, with her wild ideas that land her in the gutter, literally. She is charming, though, and really quite adorable in a child-like way.

Bray is serious, hot and quite the opposite of Gabby. Opposites attract and all...

And everybody else in the book seemed to be as amused and weary as I...

The most interesting thing about the book was how absolutely unbelievable it was. It was so incredulous that was just downright amused and kept reading just to see how much more amusing it could get. I bet it was one of those reverse psychology shiz.. ;)

My absolutely favourite part of the book was the courtroom scenes. It was absolutely entertaining. I don't know a dime about the law and all, but I'm pretty sure stuff like this usually doesn't happen at court. It was made me crack up like a witch though..

The romance itself wasn't dramatic at all. It was all those little sub-plots that was the major entertainer.

And that's what this could be described as - Pure Entertainment.

Review: The Final Empire

The Final Empire The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the first book of the Mistborn Series.

Its difficult to read a complete series. It takes time, patience and interest. But, a few chapters into the book, and I knew I will definitely read the whole series to the end.

There's always another secret - Kelsier


This is probably one of the best fictions I've ever read.

I can honestly say there was absolutely nothing I could find lacking in this book. It had everything. A exceptionally brilliant plot, seriously cooler than cool characters (there was no way you could hate anybody here), a roller coaster of emotions, a fictional dream come true.

Kelsier equals goals in life. Who cares about romance heroes and alpha men? He is absolutely dedicated to what he believes, seriously powerful, sarcastic, fantastic leader... and just awesome.

Vin: I don't know -- and it's all your fault, you know. I used to understand everything. Now it's all confused.

Kelsier: Yes, we've messed you up right properly.


And I want to be Vin. Nothing more to be said.

Sazed is like the supportive uncle, wise grandfather and the friend who will listen patiently and not judge you, all rolled into one. Everyone needs someone like Sazed in Life.

Elend, the idealistic bookworm, is just too cute. And the fact that the strong-willed, stubborn and generally difficult Vin, falls for him is really comical and strangely beautiful. (hearts)

The team. If there was anybody I would want to completely rely on, it would be people like Kelsier's Team. Breeze, Dockson, Ham, even spook and his undecipherable dialect.

Brilliant book. Brilliant characters... Just Brilliant.

Review: The Unidentified Redhead

The Unidentified Redhead The Unidentified Redhead by Alice Clayton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It was seriously fun!! Seriously, seriously fun!!

Grace is a wannabe Hollywood star and Jack is on his eleventh mile to fame. Grace is 33, Jack is 24. Grace is saucy, hot and childish, jack is cheeky,sexy and wise. And they are both awesome, funny really cute. Who cares about the rest?

Grace and Jack have instant sizzling attraction and the story builds around this. Grace has some old and new insecurities and Jack is unsure and reluctant of the increasing fame. They both try to make a relationship work in midst of jack's growing fan-base and Grace's budding career.

I love Miss Clayton's writing style. It's humorous and funny without trying, and the story is carried on beautifully. I loved the way characters were developed, each with their own little story. And all of their sassy little comments are just priceless.

Definitely worth your time and money!! :)

Review: Marriage by Law

Marriage by Law Marriage by Law by N.K. Pockett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Marriage By Law is a pretty, awesome and relaxing. The story-line may be cliched, but the book is definitely worth a read.

The highlight of the book are the characters. They were funny and adorable. There is no way, you will not fall in love with Ivory, Darius and Adrian (atleast).

In my opinion, the best part of the book was that there was subtle (and not 'sizzling'), but strong chemistry. Ivory and Darius balanced each other very well. She was adorably childish and kind of immature, while Darius was uptight (not in a jerk-ish way), and serious. They were both extreme characters, but together they created a balance. And Adrian was the just awesome!!

The only negative was that, it lacked depth.

So, the tagline is 'Marriage By Law' is smooth, fun and definitely a story for passing time.

Review: The Sword of Summer

The Sword of Summer The Sword of Summer by Rick Riordan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Now because I've read Percy Jackson (all of them), I have to give this book a 4/5.

Mr. Riordan has once again done an absolutely wonderful job with this book.

In my opinion, Percy Jackson and Magnus Chase are the same in different worlds (probably different dimensions). Funny, handsome and bravely stupid.

The only thing is that it has a confusing plot. It's sometimes hard to keep up with all the various Mythological stuff without any prior knowledge.

Definitely worth a read or two..
