It is ok for this price. But after 2 months, there are small holes on the bottom of shoes. But after 2 months, there are small holes on the bottom of shoes.

ill give them a three.  the fragrance can be a little too much. the wicks are not the greatest.  the wicks bend over and the candle burns and melts too much on one side. I do like the wood wicks better if you don't mind the sound.

I will give it 3 stars because it does put me to sleep.  Part of the going to sleep is so I can stop listening to the annoyingly droning voice, though, so it is a mixed blessing.

Works well and I cannot come up with how it could be improved, but I still cannot rate it much above a 3 star.

I liked Awake at Dawn, but nothing really important happened. Kylie spent a lot of time being horny, moody, and worrying about who to date. We still don't know what she is and that's cool, but I would like a little more work on the mysterious aspect of that. I mean, don't just toss things at me and dismiss them one by one in a manner that pretty much tells me they were never gonna stick anyway.

On top of that, I'm still not sure if I like Kylie. I don't dislike her, but I'm not all in with her either, despite her issues being easy to relate to. I spent most of the book being indifferent to Derek and then he leaves right when he says something that really pulls me in and makes me understand him a little more. Same with Lucas. He does have the upper hand because I'm a wolf girl, but he spent most of the book absent. Still, the MC's and side characters are likable enough with a ton of potential.

The triangle is ...I hope it ends quickly because I think it's unnecessary and detracts from the story. It also makes Kylie annoying. There are two other potential romances in this book and I enjoyed them way more than the triangle. I'll take more Perry/Miranda and Holiday/Burnett next book, please.

I think what bothered me most is that the mystery with the ghost played like an after thought and the wrap up was just blah. The action of the last 40 pages or so just felt sloppy to me and the ending wasn't that strong either. Hoping the next book works a little better for me.

I like the plot, but the story is not written in a very polished manner.  I think the author needs more seasoning.  The grammar is lacking and for me, that is an irritation that I have trouble getting past.  A larger vocabulary would help, too.  I wish her well with the following books in the series and I hope that, with practice, they will become more polished.

I wanted a sterling claddagh pendant with a Celtic trinity knot. There were a few to choose from on Amazon and this appeared to be the nicest one, and it got very strong reviews. It came yesterday, and it's okay. It's not the most fantastic or beautiful pendant I own, far from it. The bail is large enough to work on several different lengths of chain that I own, so that's good. That's what I wanted. I am somewhat disappointed in the color, which is not a silvery-whitish sterling, but a little dull. I'm going to polish it with a decent polish cloth and see if that helps. The detail work on the front of the pendant IS very well done, and the back is pleasantly finished as well, so it has upsides. I will keep it and wear it, but I'm not as thrilled as I wish I were. I would like more of a real bright sterling color in the pendant, and I guess I would like a little more "presence." I don't think it would stop me from buying from Silver Insanity again, but next time I might try a more upscale, expensive pendant or necklace.

eh. okay, I'm giving it three stars because it might be an okay book about clearing clutter. I'm not taking away the third star because, yes....there is a mention (and a minimal use - key word: minimal) of Feng Shui. Why didn't she just call her book Clear Your Clutter with Karen Kingston with an occasional focus on Feng Shui. That would have been so much more accurate.

The House of Night books I found hard to get into.  They came recommended, so of course I had to go buy the whole series.  I feel a bit (OK, a LOT) cheated to have paid $10 per book, they were really worth half that.  Or less.  And yet I keep reading them.  Waiting on them to improve.  Again, I feel that they have such potential, but they still haven't delivered.  I guess I'll finish out the ones I've purchased and see if they do.  Please, let them improve!

The characters were good, the premise was good, but something just didn't click with me.  I think as the books progress, they do get better, and being a sucker, I did have to read them, and I'm sure I'll buy the next one.  But under protest at the high price.

For the guy's age, I think he's done an enviable job.  However, there are some things to learn.

Paolini just has not developed the chops yet to not telegraph his surprises.  The surprises are not really surprises.  Also, and I noticed this in Elder too, he does not yet have the skill to intertwine his chapters to keep multiple threads going in tandem.  There will be several chapters with one set of characters, until it gets to the point of being overdue to switch back to the other threads.

Eragon's real father was divulged in this book.  It wasn't a big dramatic plot turn though.  It was sort of ho hum.

As far as telegraphing surprises, I'm going to go out on a limb and predict that Angela, the herbalist, is actually Selena, Eragon's mother, undercover from Galbatorix, and watching over her son.  I could be wrong, but I don't remember Eragon's real father meeting up with Angela in the previous books, so there was no big reason to divulge this at the time.  And, from what I remember, no one seems to have seen Selena die.  Am I wrong?

The book was an ok read.  It didn't feel so derivative this time around.  There were a couple of things that felt original, but I can't remember what they are now.

I gave this book a 3 star, it was okay nothing overly exciting about it.

Not as good as the first two, but still good. If this is the ending it will be good, if not I hope the storyline improves. Not that it was bad, it just seems the author is running out of situations to put the guys into. If you read the other two then this will wrap things up nicely.

It does what is is suppose to do, but does not last long, this is my 3rd one is the reason I only gave it 4 stars.

I wish I could give it 3.5 stars, because I'm not sure it's a 4 star but definitely better than three stars. At times the pacing is odd, it plods along for the first three quarters and then the ending comes suddenly. I know there are follow up books and there is something to be said for lead ins to sequels but I feel there was far too much glossed over.

There was very little development in the two main characters. The author is definitely capable of character development since the two "main supporting" characters seem much more rounded out and real.

All of that aside, the story was good and I enjoyed reading it. I look forward to reading the sequels.

In general it's okay but with simple changes could be made more practical:  I'll give it 3 stars instead of 2 based on the inexpensive price...you get what you pay for.

I am only 1/3 through the book but I am not as interested in it as my friends said I would be.  I have not given up on the book and I will finish it so will rate it again upon completion.

Okay, so I've read the two books in such a short time, like really I just bought this one last night. So, I must admit that it's held my interest but I'm still struggling with how much I like it. I'm not getting the warm fuzziness that I would like in those moments in the book when they should be there. I was also about fed up with the he loves her not me and I can't live like this without his love deal BUT I'm still interested and yes I'm purchasing the next book right now so I have to give it at least 3 stars.
