BookTube-A-Thon: Day 4


Total Pages Read: 212

Total Goals Met: 2. Start a series, 3. A book with red on the cover, 6. A book to movie adaptation (and watch the movie).

Book Count: 5

Completed


Secret of Light ~ KC Dyer
Pages: 245
Genre: Time Travel, Young Adult, Canadian
Book #2 of Eagle Glen Trilogy


Started: 79 - 245



Quick Review: I didn't like this one as much as the first one, however, it was an enjoyable story none the less. Leonardo DaVinci makes an appearance and I liked the angle that Dyer took with him. He was mildly infuriating; what you would expect a genius to be like.


3/5 STARS



The Black Cauldron ~ Lloyd Alexander
Pages: 178
Genre: Fantasy
Book #2 of The Chronicles of Prydian


Quick Review: I have so much to say. So much anger. I watched this movie as a young un'. Now that I've read the book, I dislike the adaptation of the story. The characters were sort of similar, but the same plot was no where to be found. All in all, I'd say experience the book and the movie as two separate entities.

2/5 STARS
