"A great book should leave you with many experiences, and slightly exhausted. You should live several lives while reading it." - William Styron

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
