I have to many favorite books to list and most of you know which they are.
I am not sure if I am going to read since for some time now I somehow haven't got the patience to read but if I am reading than I will continue reading

And now I'm going to start this:

It's difficult to select a favourite of all time, but I'll go with these two:

I have read a little over a third of the book and I am enjoying it but the PP was so good that both the FS and the CP are less good.
The CP has the same humor but it misses the great interaction between Alexia and Conall. We do get to see a lot of our favorite characters all grown up which is nice, because I am often left wondering what happens with the children in a book and now I know.
It gives us a lot of the same in how events unfold and how characters respond to them. Which is nice because it is what we liked about the first series but it is also getting a bit old and has me searching for what makes Prudence different as an individual and not just an extension of characters we know.
There are some hints to future events that have me going: "no no no" but which are no surprise as they were alluded to in the PP.
But as I said I 'm only a third in and most of it has been introducing both old and new characters and setting the scene. Who knows where the book takes us.
