Book Review: Clockwork Princess

Perhaps it isn’t proper for me to write this review while I am undergoing an emotional upheaval right this very minute. My thoughts are still incoherent and I am not sure whether I would be able to properly convey my feelings for this book. Clockwork Princess has been on my 2013 must-read list and to say that I am looking forward to read it is an understatement. I was so immersed in the world of Shadowhunters that I couldn’t rest until I’ve read the final installment of The Infernal Devices. Unlike The Mortal Instruments, The Infernal Devices left a sorrow…

Book Review: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Finally, the second to the last installment of the boy wizard’s amazing story. I’ve read this book ages ago but I can’t stop re-reading it especially these fast few months. I am terribly missing Harry and the gang. You must probably know by now (if you’ve read my past HP book reviews) that I intend to finish reviewing all the Harry Potter series because I owe him big time. Anyway, this is the second to the last HP that I’m going to review and I’m definitely moving read another series. (Watch out for that one) To start with, the Half-Blood…
