Resonant, heartwarming, and fast-paced. A strong 4/5 stars, Victoria Schwab's This Savage Song will leave readers breathless, waiting for an encore. Thoroughly recommended to ages 12 and up, fans of J.K. rowling, Holly Black, and Cassandra Clare will eat this up.About 7 years agospinnypeeps has read this book.

Undefeated by the Salt Mines of Endovier, Celaena Sardothien has returned to Adarlan, the prince’s champion to compete for the position of the royal assassin. If she emerges victorious, she Crown prince has offered her freedom at the price of four years of service to the malicious King of Adarlan. But it is not the competition that worries her one bit-- it’s the evil that lies at the heart of the castle that is killing her opponents left and right. With the help of the gruff Captain Westfall and the bewitching playboy, Prince Dorian, will she finally set her inherent beast free before it’s too late? After reading a review by fany13 on DogoBooks, I finally managed to read this fantastic Young Adult book by Sarah J. Maas. I admit that at first I hesitated to read it-- Celaena seemed evil to me. How could the author possibly justify the actions of the most notorious assassin of Adarlan? I opened the book cover with completely cynical eyes, expecting to hate the main character. At first, I did. She was narcissistic, haughty, ruthless-- or so I thought. As I read on, I discovered that Celaena was one of--if not the most--incredible, inspiring, and 3-Dimensional characters that I’ve ever encountered in literature. Sarah J. Maas spins an incredibly intricate web in “The Throne of Glass”, which you don’t want to miss. I can confidently rate this book five stars. Lovers of Rick Riordan, Brandon Mull, Marie Lu, and Veronica Roth will enjoy this thrill of a read!Over 7 years agospinnypeeps added a book review.

"Sometimes, the thing you've been looking for your whole life is right there beside you all along." (Quill) Might I just start with saying, this movie was absolutely phenomenal! The effects (for both the fight scenes and the many aliens featured in the movie) were fantastically done; there were many times where I found myself staring at Rocket, enthralled by how realistic and fluid the movie's animators made him. The effects weren't the only thing that made this movie stand out: the characterization in this movie was heart moving. To see Quill grow with who he meets, Yondu and Rocket bond, and Quill and Gamora working on their relationship was entertaining and heart moving. By the last twenty minutes, I was just crying over the characters and the story. Moving onto the plot, it had many twists I wouldn't have expected, and caused me to sit at the edge of my seat the entire time. I would say that the only downside of the movie would be the fact that the humor seemed to have been lowered in exchange for the character development (which I personally don't mind at all!) All in all, this a great movie to go watch with friends (like I did), but I would not recommend this to younger audiences (or at least those that haven't been informed of the multiple curse words and more inappropriate subjects).Over 7 years agomysterystar has watched this movie.
