Book Number: 31

Number Of Pages: 332

Book Title: Stormdancer

Author: Jay Kristoff

Summary: This dystopian steampunk adventure set in Japan features the protagonist Yukiko with her father and friends fulfilling the wishes of the Shogun of the land, Yoritomo, in capturing a griffin. Although they succeed, the mission ends in disaster that has Yukiko struggling to survive with only the newly-freed griffin for company. Since he hates her for capturing him and would rather kill her than help her, how will she survive and be reunited with her father?

 

This is book one in the trilogy series and while I will finish the next two I would not recommend this one. It's horribly disrespectful of Japanese culture.

Book Number: 9 (I think)

Number Of Pages: 218

Book Title: Stalking Jack the Ripper

Author: Kerri Maniscalco

Summary: Young Audrey Rose Wadsworth is the younger of Edmund Wadsworth's two children, and she's also interested in a rather macabre hobby that young society ladies shouldn't indulge in. This is 1800s London after all, and a serial killer is stalking the streets. Audrey Rose must use her wits, and to her reluctance, the handsome Thomas Cresswell's wits to solve the case of Jack the Ripper. 

Rating: I love this book. Audrey Rose is adorable, and her slowly realizing that she likes the devilishly handsome Thomas is just the cutest thing. I have the second one too! It's about Dracula! 5/5. YA novels are just the best.

Book Title: Hunting Prince Dracula

Author: Kerri Maniscalco

Summary: Young Audrey Rose Wadsworth is the younger of Edmund Wadsworth's two children, and she's also interested in a rather macabre hobby that young society ladies shouldn't indulge in. This is 1800s London after all, and a serial killer is stalking the academy she is attending. Young, handsome Thomas Cresswell is still around as a love interest. Will they be able to find the one killing servants and students alike? 

Rating: This one's ending wasn't as good as the first one, but what makes up for it is the adorableness between Thomas and Audrey Rose is fabulous. I'll give it a 5/5 for that alone. lol. Now I need the next one. xD

The first book was fantastic, I went into it not having seen the show and with low expectations, and got really caught up in it! I will be picking up the second book after I knock out some more tomes. I swear Aiden Turner is an awesome everything. XD

Along with Lazari, newly minted as a unicorn from his earthly incarnation as Jazz, they learn how to heal and spread love on Earth as part of their mission. Their training has become much harder with the rise of the evil unicorn Hasbadana and his recruiting efforts to raise an army of animals to overthrow humans and rule the planet. Using dark mists to recruit abused animals, it becomes a cat-and-mouse game to see if the Legion of the Unicorn can stop Hasbadana from completing his goal.

Thank you, this is awesome to read!  Having only watched the miniseries, I can safely say the title of the last book is "spoilery," but not really, if that makes any sense.  It seems like the miniseries doesn't finish in the same place as the book series.

 

 And I definitely concur about Aiden Turner!
