Nice children book of rhymes. Only the Czech translation sometimes lacks originality and the right rhyme. But the illustrations are beautiful.

What a nice nice combination of classical fairytale and story of P.T. Barnum. This is exactly what I would await from retelling. Recommended! 80%

A must have for all Land of Stories fans. You get some background to some characters as those are based on real people from Chris' life. Also there is an overview of all destinations and characters as well as some versions of book covers etc. And this time fully illustrated by Brandon Dorman ❤️

If you like Dungeons&Dragons then this book is exactly for you. Collection of three stories full of action, blood and magic... Pure fantasy. Recommended.

If you like gamebooks, then you should choose this one. It is horror themed and you have more possible endings. It was a good reading with some scary moments. Definitely recommended!

Artur Mumby strikes again and this time he needs to beat evil top hats. Accompanied with beautiful ilustrations by David Wyatt, this is definitely something worth reading for all fans of steampunk and scifi.

This was something unbelievable. A combination of multiple styles is something which makes this book really unique. Retelling of an unknown fairytale, detective story or a mysterious thriller? Maybe even a horror? All of that served to us in one book. Perfect reading for autumn evenings...

If you are a fan of Ranger's Apprentice, then this is a must read for you. Even though it's only an addition to the main story, those short stories are good for the whole story and the world around.

This was really nerve-racking ending to the main Maze Runner trilogy. I was feeling it all the way with Thomas and the last 50 pages were really the best. Now I am looking forward the two prequels to see what background does it all have.

My beloved story I know so well from the movie. The book doesn't bring nothing new unfortunately, but it is a good choice if you love Egypt and mummies.

This was really interesting reading. Combination of young adult with a witchcraft and a little bit of a mystery. The middle part was a little bit overmixed, but the ending was better. I am looking forward to the next book as I can't imagine what it may be about.

Everytime I read it, I find something new... This is for sure my favourite book ever...

I just love illustrations by Chris Riddell everywhere. So this short story from the Nordic mythology is no exception. The Nordic atmosphere is amazing and you can feel the cold from those illustrations.

This was (again) so amazing. It is a must read for all who already read the previous two books. I just love this future dystopic world and how everything works there. Only the waiting for book 4 will be again too long, I am afraid. If you want an original fantasy/scifi, this is a perfect choice!

Perfect poems with a Christmas theme, the story and illustrations by Tim Burton are clever and nice. I think it is good to see how it started and what was the basis for the well known animated movie from 1993.

This was pure nostalgia. As I grew up on Ducktales, I really enjoyed all my favourite characters and the story of chasing the lucky 5 cent.

What an ending! But it's something which is for sure Shusterman's strength. The story flows until the last quarter or third of the book and then the final mayham starts... I already look forward the last book in the series about Scythes. Perfect choice for all dystopies lovers.

I wasn't really aware of what to expect from this book except from an amazing cover. And I get a dark book full of mystery and tension which I enjoyed from the first page to the last one. A solid 90% rating that would fit 4,5* out of 5*. Strongly recommended if you like haunted mansions.

4,5/5... This was surpridingly good middle grade crime story full of adventure. It has nice illustrations and also a good story which goes in an unexpected direction. I strongly recommend it to everyone who loves trains, just like I do.

I loved the style of the paintings in this comic book. And the story is full of action, even though a little bit scary and quite brutal. I am curious about the next 5 books, which I will definitely read soon as well.
