Harry Potter order tag; Maud

This is few days late but this is going to be my main post.
I'm going to be doing an order of favourite to least favourite harry potter books tag. I will also write a mini description of why. Don't get me wrong though, I love them all!
I hope you all enjoy this fun post :)
It will be least favourite to favourite by the way.

 Books 

Least 
1. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
    This is my least favourite book because I just found it really creepy. I read this in Year6 so I might      think a bit differently now?!
2. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
    Lots of people (aka Emile) love this book. I don't really know why this is near the bottom of my         list, I just prefer most of the other books' plot lines.
3. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
    I really love this book as it's the start of this amazing adventure. But I suppose it gets more                   incredible as you get futher into the series.
4. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
    I also loved this one but ya know...There are sooo many up the top of the scale that this ended up         here ;(
5. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
    I really like the Triwizard Tournament and how in this book, us readers to meet other wizarding
   schools.
6. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban 
    It was so tough to choose between these last two so they are pretty much equal. I REALLY                 REALLY LOVE this one!
7. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
    Although it had a really slow start, the end of this book was life-changing.
    I loved it so so so so sooooo much. I stayed up until 3:30 am to finish it. Yep <----- That is                   dedication right there ;0
Favourite

That is my list of least favourite to favourite.
I tag Emile to do this so you can see our difference of opinion!

QOTD: Which is your favourite Harry Potter book?

Happy Reading!

Percy Jackson and the Olympians series review ~ Emile

Bonjour mes amis!

How are you all doing today? Honestly, I feel awful. But hopefully that's just me. 

My latest book-ish obsession is the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series by Rick Riordan. Unless you have been living under a rock you have probably heard of this series. It is a 5 book collection about a boy call Percy Jackson (obviously). 

Percy is a demigod and after a strange turn of events ends up living at Camp Half-Blood, a camp for demigods. Demigods are the children of gods and humans, because of this they attract monsters which means they do not often survive without help from the camp. On the way he meets new friends and enemies and heroes and villains and it is epic. I love it. 

The books are as follows:

1. Percy Jackson and the Lightening Thief

2. Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters

3. Percy Jackson and the Titan's Curse

4. Percy Jackson and the Battle of the Labyrinth 

5. Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian 

There is also a follow-up series featuring the original characters as well as some new ones called the Heroes of Olympus. This series incorporates Roman gods as well as Greek into the world of Percy Jackson. Here are the books:

1. The Lost Hero

2. The Son of Neptune

3. The Mark of Athena

4. The House of Hades

5. The Blood of Olympus 

I highly recommend this for people of all ages. 5 stars! 

Au revoir,

That is all if you have not read the entire Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. If you have read them, then this next section is for you. If you haven't, then open at your own risk. 

Throne of Glass ~ Review by Sarah J. Maas (Emile)

Bonjour!

One of my most recent bookish obsessions, has been the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. I love it so much! It is to be a six book series. Currently only the first three books are published as well as a book of novellas The Assassin’s Blade. The first part of this review will not contain any spoilers, and the part with spoilers will be covered. Read that at your own risk!

Throne of Glass is about an assassin working in a death camp. One day she is visited by the Crown Prince who takes her out of the mines to compete to become the King’s very own champion. She must defeat thieves, assassins and fully trained soldiers in order to earn her freedom. Will she survive? And where will she be at the end?

(That wasn’t the blurb that was my own summary. )

As you already know, this is one of my favourite series I have read this year.

5 out of 5 stars.  Awesome.

In these books I love how Celaena is a girly-girl yet still kick-ass and doesn’t take any rubbish from anyone. I want to be like her sometimes, apart from the devastating life and the murdering people. 

I highly recommend this series. If you like young adult fantasy and kick-butt characters this is for you.

Au revoir,

Emile x

Now for spoilers! If you have not read the whole Throne of Glass series so far, (books 1, 2 & 3) then do not open this.
