Ravenglass Chronicles

The Fool by Jon Cronshaw
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Ravenglass Chronicles Collection

I want to thank you for creating such an enticing foundation for what looks to be an amazing, mystical adventure. I finished reading the ARC copy. Kat is developing like a spider web, growing more intricate and interesting with each new chapter. While some of the characters around her are slow to flesh out, Kat keeps me invested in the story, as I eagerly await her actions and reactions to the challenges and obstacles rising before her. Some from her present, some from her past, some entangles in her future.

(view spoiler)[ As a reader, I was not fully believing in her relationship with Hans. It seems contrived, and lacking a solid moment of true connection, that would be powerful enough for her to risk so much for a kiss, or more. You may want to consider editing to add more elements or history to their story together.

Similarly, I was a bit put off by the sudden change in the relationship between Kat and Elizabeth. Again, more history of them getting along as little girls, or with something special shared with their father, may make it more real. His death could have drove the wedge between them. More often than not, sisters stay catty with each other, unless there was a time when they truly adored each other. (hide spoiler)]

I truly enjoyed reading this, and look forward to more of this story!

Blinding Night

I loved this story!!!

Let me start by saying, I picked up my Kindle, then put it down on the first page. I waited a week, then tried again. I gave it one more chance, and I am so glad that I did.

I devoured this story, reading the book in two days. I quickly found myself eagerly watching Summer, and trying to find clues as her story unfolded.

Mom is Demi, maybe a demi-god?, she's not eating, is that something? dream or a memory?kissing him or his brother? does he 'love' love her too?

I experienced the edgy time as you near the end of the book, and you get worked up because you realize you are going to have to wait for the next one in the series to be releases. (Soon please!)

Thank you Chantal, for a modern adventure into classic Greek mythology!
