Firelight (Firelight #1) by Sophie Jordan Review

I just couldn't get into this book at all. It mostly consists of Jacinda whining and bitching about everything. She doesn't want to leave the pride but when given the opportunity to go there she doesn't want to. I really just wanted to punch her for her selfishness. First few chapters were good and the mythology of the dragons really intrigued but it just went downhill plotwise after that and was just Jacinda going back and forth with her feelings for Will.

First few chapters were good and the mythology of the dragons really intrigued but it just went downhill plotwise after that and was just Jacinda going back and forth with her feelings for Will. I didn't find the high school believeable and teh students. So I don't recommend this to anyone unless you like selfish girls who whine about everything and can't do smart decisions than sure go ahead.

Winging It (Dragon Diaries #2) by Deborah Cooke Review

5 STARS

I am really in love with this series it is just beautiful. It is nice to see even from the beginning of this novel how much Zoe has developed from the first book and is much bolder and more attuned with her Wyvern powers.

In this novel Zoe and her fellow Pyr (Liam, Nick and Garret) must deal with the Mages once again as they did in the first novel. On top of this Zoe must has to deal with her parents possibly splitting up, her best friend Megan who she is constantly headbutting with lately and try and balance homework and school on top of that. Not to mention Jared keeps giving Zoe hot and cold signals. So Zoe isn't very happy even with her sixteenth birthday coming up.

Even though this novel didn't have as much action as it's predecessor it worked heavily on character development and Zoe working on developing her Wyvern abilities.

Definitely can't wait for Blazing the Trail.
