Book Review: A Royal Guide to Monster Slaying by Kelley Armstrong

42281823


I was hoping to get this review up several weeks ago, but unfortunately, due to a lack of Internet and just an incredibly busy schedule it just didn't get done.  I have now started a new permanent position at my work with more hours, but no set schedule, so it will be more difficult to get these done.  Anyway...
I really enjoyed this book!  It was so well written and engaging I couldn't put it down.  The characters are very fleshed out and they have real motivations for doing things, rather than because the plot requires them to do so.
The plot is so well written that it will keep you on the edge of your seat.  I really liked that there was a good mix of action and regular life, if you will.  I'm already looking forward to the next book (although there is no hint of a date)!
This is a tween book.  It is a bit old for children around 10 (depending on maturity level, etc).  I certainly wouldn't read it to my 5 year old niece!

Suggested Reads
I couldn't think of any off the top of my head that I haven't suggested already, so I turned to Novelist for some assistance!
Here are the 9 titles that Novelist suggested with spunky female leads:

Princeless - Whitley, Jeremy     Igraine the Brave     Handbook for Dragon Slayers     Frogkisser!



Moving Target (Moving Target, #1)     Hook's Revenge (Hook's Revenge, #1)     The Door at the End of the World     Thisby Thestoop and the Wretched Scrattle

Guest: A Changeling Tale
