Grace Meredith (koreantrash) Please join Aline and I as we read A Darker Shade of Magic!


Aline (thousanduniverses) Join us guys! :)


Grace Meredith (koreantrash) Hi! I'm on page 100 now. Where are you at?

Kell is really cool. I like the way he can actually think for himself. I'm sick of the way that a lot of main characters are so blinded by passion or revenge.

Holland really intrigues me!


Aline (thousanduniverses) I'm on page 75.
I'm curious to know more about Kell and where he actually is from.
Holland appeared only for a short time this far, but I want to know more about him too.
And Lila, she seems pretty interesting.


Grace Meredith (koreantrash) I'm on page 175 now. The plot has just thickened a million times over! I cannot wait to see what Black London is like. And I'm so glad that Lila partnered up with Kell.

The way that all those people come back to life with the black blood... that's really creepy. This is actually kind of horror AND fantasy!


Aline (thousanduniverses) I'm always behind you :D Still on page 155.
I have difficulties to picture the different London's, but it got better the further the story goes.
The stone. And you're right, the black eyes magic thing is kinda creepy.
Can't wait to read on!


Grace Meredith (koreantrash) On page 320 now. :) Don't worry about being behind! I'm a naturally fast reader.

I am loving the way this is progressing. Everything is so twisted! I really like Lilah as a character. This book needs to be made into a movie.


Aline (thousanduniverses) I'm nearly finished, on page 355 now :)

I like that progress too. The Dane siblings are so horrible and I hope that Kell and Lila will get out of it alive ...
A movie would be awesome!


Aline (thousanduniverses) I'm done reading it. To the end it got finally way more exiting and I liked the end.
I posted a short review about what I thought of it :)
I liked it and I really tried to like it more, but it doesn't excited me how I thought it would.


Grace Meredith (koreantrash) Yep! I finished it a few days ago, forgot to tell you. It did get a lot faster paced! I can't wait to read the next one once it comes out.
