The world in it is very cool and interesting. It had me asking so many question and hooked on the book from beginning to end. I hope you enjoy it!My Thoughts....

I get what they're trying to do by attracting an audience from a similar book but if a book is good enough, and this one is, it can stand on it's own merits. My Thoughts....

I hope you get a chance to read it, it's very good and definitely intriguing enough without the comparison.My Thoughts....

That always puts me off because no matter what, I will always sit and compare while I am reading, which takes away from so much of the read! <br /><br /><br />However, I am really glad you liked it. I went ahead and bought this a few months ago and I have yet to read it so I think it is time. I also like the sound of the logistics too. I think the way the beings work (especially in witch books!) and how it is explained is better than the plot sometimes! :) <br /><br />Great review & thanks for sharing! :) xx<br /><br /><br />Alex @ <a href="http://theshelfdiaries.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">The Shelf Diaries</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01901881788309082282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158143373242218557.post-27031071543946870382014-05-06T11:07:56.848-04:002014-05-06T11:07:56.848-04:00I absolutely hate when books are compared to other...I absolutely hate when books are compared to other series. My expectations end up going through the roof, and I'm usually left a little disappointed. I just don't understand why comparisons have to be made! I haven't read The Bone Season yet, but it's been on my wishlist for a while now =) And no cliffhanger, even better! Great Review!<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05889303601242344598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158143373242218557.post-31544644888610386202014-05-05T14:45:56.348-04:002014-05-05T14:45:56.348-04:00OOh nice review!

So it's in my TBR mountain, I just have to work my way towards it! Curse the short hours in a day and the need to "work" and "sleep"! I so wish I could go without sleep! It would solve a lot of problems! :)<br /><br />Again, great review! I heard comparisons to Harry Potter too, but I thought it sound intriguing even without that comparison! Hoping to read it soon!
