review 1: Queen Elizabeth I. Pretty much everyone knows she was a good queen and some people know what she accomplished during her reign (like outlawing wife-beating after 10:00pm, according to one of my Bathroom Readers), but not many really know much about her childhood and teenage year...

review 1: I collect owls. I love (good) children's books. I enjoy series where you can follow the lives of the characters as they face more trials and more excitements and learn and grow. So it was a no-brainer in the past to read and collect all the Guardians of Ga'Hoole books. Then m...

review 1: Basically this book is about two main characters, Faolan and Edme. Faolan was abandoned as a pup and left to die due to a splayed paw he was born with. Faolan survived his sentence to death due to the loving care of a mother grizzly bear named Thunderheart who had lost both her c...

review 1: I loved this series, but this one book was my absolute favorite. The book is about how one wolf helps an owl, two bear cubs, two eagles, and ten wolves cross an icy bridge to get to a new world, which they called The Distant Blue. Only Folaon knows that this new land is really th...

review 1: THIS REVIEW CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS. This book/series has a lot of bittersweet memories for me. When I finished it(and cried) it was Christmas Eve. Ezylryb will forever remind me of my grandfather, who was a true book lover. Right about the time I read the part in the series wher...

review 1: My opinion- could be better. It was good, but not good enough, I believe that the earthquake was a bit silly, as an earthquake the size to destroy a volcano, it would make the volcano erupt, a tsunami would happen, and well, survival in an earthquake to destroy a few giant volcan...

review 1: This was the book when Faolan and Edme figure out that they were lovers of a past time when they traveled separate ways on the ice tongue. They then become pawfast again. I find it kind of obvious that all this would happen, just reading the first chapter already told me everythi...

review 1: In the previous book, Faolan was undoubtedly the hero of the story. In this one, Edme really steps forward as a major character. She is so unlike other MacHeaths as well as other wolves of the Beyond – cheerful and kind despite all the sorrow she suffered, and yet she is strong a...

review 1: This book was fantastic! But, sad, too. The sad part is when Thunderheart gets thought about by Foalan, and Thunderheart was a grizzly bear who found Foalan on a ice shaft in a river because he had a splayed paw. Packs get rid of pups when they have bad things that happened. Like...
