Mary Quinn The Body At The Tower

Hello everybody this weak I've reread(yes you read right)Mary Quinn The Body At The Tower(Since I've just got the third book)it was published in 2010.It was written by Y.S Lee and the second book of the series.

The good
.Mary and Japas is as likeable
.Great cover
.The story has more of a mystery theme tan the first book

The bad
.While Mary and James are likeable as ever some new characters aren't that likeable
.The story is a little
bit duler this time(to me it lacks some spirit the first book had)

Quick summary
Someone had died at the tower and the agency is hired to investagate so Mary is send there but unfortunately girls aren't allowed there(It's a construction site)so she has to disguise herself as a boy.There she meets James Easton again and a reporter Octavius Jones(He is the only new characters who knows that she is a girl).While she tries to hide herself from James.........................That's all I guess.

The conclusion
Mary Quinn The Body At The Tower is a great sequel while not as good as the first it is a great enjoyable myster book which will definitely satisfy fans of the first book.

Birthmarked is a book written by Caragh M O'Brien.It was published in 2010 and receive some positive reviews.

The good
.Interesting story really different then what I expected.
.The characters are very highlighted
.Great ending

The bad
.The book finishes to quickly.
.The sypnosis at the back of the book promises a little too much
.Weird cover

Quick summary
The story is set where there are two types of the people.People who lives in the wall and the one who lives outside.Every month the people who lives outside must gives babies to the one who live inside and the will receive compensation.Gaia Stone just midwife one day while returning home she found that her parents were captured by soldiers from the wall because they had question to ask them but after they didn't return after 1 month she becomes very worried.........................That's all I will say

The conclusion
Birthmarked is a really interesting book to read with it's interesting story eventhough the sypnosis did promised a quite different story.By the way the cover was really weird.At first I thought it was romance novel or something.Birthmarked is a great book to read if you're looking for fast book with a great story.

Inkdeath

Hi everybody last week I read Inkdeath(I'm still not sure why I read it and the first two was just okay.Anyway it is the third book and the last of the series.It receive mixed to negative reviews.

The good
.The story becomes more interesting this time.
.Elinor is as likeable as ever.
.Some characters hold more crucial part this time(Violante,Orpheus,Resa,etc)

The bad
.Meggie becomes less important in this book.
.Sadly Elinor doesn't appears much.

Quick summary
Now Mo,Resa and Maggie are stuck in Inkheart because Fenoglio wouln't write anymore and they didn't want to ask Orpheus.Mo keeps pretending to be Bluejay(a hero created by Fenoglio in the last book)and fughting soldiers but Meggie is worried that her father might die.Meanwhile Elinoris miserable in her house because all of them had dissappeared after alot of mourning Darius decide to try..................that's all I guess.

The conclusion
The story is more interesting than before.It has more story on some characters this time(sadly not Elinor) so how in the world did it recieve mixed to negative reviews(If you read the Inkdeath Wikipedia reviews one reviews will says that Cornelia Funke forgot who was she writing it for,well I didn't agree with that review sure this time it has a darker tone but kids doesn't mind reading it.After all since the publication of the first book the kids have grown for four years and I don't see people complaining at Harry Potter)While it is not he best book around it isn't that bad.So for people who loves book Inkdeath will definitely smile.
