The Fowl Twins by Eoin Colfer

So first off, I have to say that I was really excited when I got the opportunity to review this book as I am a huge fan of the original Artemis Fowl series and have read all the main books in the series, at least the ones that I know about.

The Fowl Twins, by Eoin Colfer, is the sequel to the Artemis Fowl series and follows Artemis' two younger brothers, Myles and Beckett, who as you might have guessed are twins.  Myles takes after Artemis as a child genius and is often competing against Artemis, trying to out smart him.  Beckett is more hands on and seems simple, but in really is anything but simple.  The twins are nothing alike, but the differences work to make an excellent balance that helps them push forward.

Without spoiling too much, Myles and Beckett, along with a toy troll, are kidnapped and have to escape with the help of a non-magical blue pixel named Lazuli.  Together, the weird becomes normal, and each member of the team, named the Regrettables, use their skills to get them out of the clutches of a duke obsessed with immortality and a nun who wants to prove that fairies exist.

The story is action packed with lots of plot twists and surprises to keep you reading till the next page.  As a teacher, I like the story because it is fantastical enough to pull students in.  As a cosplayer, there are just so many fun characters to portray such as suit wearing miles, goldfish tie wearing Beckett, and blue pixel Lazuli.  It is one fun story that I highly recommend reading, especially if you are a fan of the original Artemis Fowl series.

Velcro from FineWish Review

Hey all! I wanted to share this Velcro from FineWish that I received to review. It is quite a useful item for us cosplayers as you all know. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N3T9HKK/ About the Seller: The seller was very prompt in sending the package and it arrived on time. The Velcro was packaged well and kept safe from the elements. No complaints about the seller. About the Product: The Velcro comes in two rolls, one hook and one loop, to complete the set. On the back pieces of Velcro is a sticky adhesive that allows you to attach the Velcro onto objects easily. The adhesive sticks to some surfaces better than others which I found out when I used it to do a quick repair on a ripped messenger bag. This can be beneficial if you need to remove the Velcro and put it in a different spot. I know I make mistakes all the time and need to fix it, so this ease in removing can come in handy. However, if you want to stick it in one place for a while, it does hold up well unless yo...

Sound the Gong by Joan He

I bought "Sound the Gong" by Joan He as it was the sequel to "Strike the Zither" which I have read before and loved.  Though it is a sequel, it is meant to be read right after "Strike the Zither" and should probably be considered one book broken up into two parts and read together.  I would not read "Sound the Gong" as a stand alone.  The series is roughly based off the story of the Three Kingdoms, but with a mainly female cast.  "Sound the Gong" starts off right after Zephyr makes the betrayal realization at the end of "Strike the Zither."  It follows Zephyr's journey as she must decide what she is willing to sacrifice to get a chance to change fate and meet her goals to lead Xin Ren to victory.  Without giving too much away, it is a story of betrayal, forgiveness, hope, despair, and so much more in an emotional rollercoaster.  Will Zephyr ultimately get what she wants or will she have lost everything just for the chance?...
