Should I say 'well done'?

Did you enjoy and appreciate them? Have you reviewed them? Did you value them, or has each author's pains and effort been reduced to a simple tick on a page?

Happy 2021.

Sterling Kirkland (sterlingkirkland) Just finished A foreshadowing of Darkness. One of the more interesting post-apocalyptic books I've read to date.

Victoria Zigler (toriz) | 2898 comments Here's what I read during the last two weeks of 2020, along with my reviews for the books in question:

The Ickabog
by J.K. Rowling
My rating: four out of five stars
I struggled to get in to this one at first, and - being totally honest - for the first half of the book I was convinced it was only going to be a three
star read for me at best. But it picked up in the second half, all the seemingly random stories started to tie together, and it had a really nice ending.
So, though it was far from being an amazing read for me, I do think it was a really good one that was worth persevering with, hence the four star rating.

Bright Lights and Candle Glow
by Staci Troilo, Michele Jones, Pamela Foster, Jan Morrill, Dave Kwiecinski, Joan Hall, P.C. Zick, and E.J. Lane
My rating: five out of five stars
Usually, when you get a collection like this from a selection of authors writing in a variety of styles and/or genres, there will be stories that appeal
to you more than others. While that does hold true for this collection, it's impossible for me not to give this book the full five stars, since I feel
all the stories deserve high ratings. Yes, as I said, I did enjoy some more than others. But I thought they were all fantastic and well-written tales,
and consider this collection worthy of the full five stars. A highly recommended read for around the holidays.

By Royal Appointment
by Victoria Leybourne
My rating: five out of five stars
This was a well-written and wonderful little romantic tale, with fantastic characters and a fabulous plot.
~
Ready Player Two (Ready Player One, #2)
by Ernest Cline
My rating: four out of five stars
OK, so this wasn't as much of an awesome read as the first book was. However, it was a fun read, it was great to have an excuse to spend more time with
the characters I learned to love in the previous book, and it did have quite a few moments I really loved. Also, that was a pretty cool ending. So, a really
great read, but don't go in to it expecting to have the same amazing reading experience you had in "Ready Player One" - which I'm going to assume you read
before considering reading this one - because you won't. I'm definitely glad I read it though, and would still recommend it to those who loved its prequel.

Sterling Kirkland (sterlingkirkland) Started Darklands Online last night. The only negative thing I can say about this book is it is a quick read.
