It's a little slow at the beginning, but then a lot of stuff happens very quickly. I liked it.

This book had interesting and encouraging things to say about meditation. Only thing was: it was a "28 day program," which just made me feel bad about not completing the weeks. Sharon assigned 20 minute sessions to start, which is longer than I'd meditated before. It was hard to keep it consistent. I preferred Dan Harris's books, where he encourages people to start with 5 or 10 minutes.

It was really exciting in the beginning, but it dragged a little after that. The fight scenes were cool, very fast paced.

Carmen's perspective was more boring than Dani's, and that was the entire book. This book had more action than the first, but the villain was stupid. It dragged on for too long at the beginning, her decision to save her girlfriend or stay with her family. Obviously save your girlfriend! Which would make for a better book!? I still liked the book, but wouldn't recommend it.

This book is extremely dark. I picked it up because of the pretty cover and Japanese setting, but it's mostly depressing. I liked the Zen elements though, since I'm interested in meditation. I skipped the chapters of Ruth's perspective a few times, they weren't as interesting as Nao's.

I like the Minecraft gameplay references, like "Why have I been carrying an oak sapling around?" and "I forgot a bed. Anyone have 3 wool?" The art style is cute and funny too.

This book makes me smile and laugh out loud. Very funny!

I like seeing Tadano dress up like a maid!

I don't think there were any boys in this book, ever. It was an interesting take on science fiction. It wrapped up pretty quickly after a lot of action at the end, I would have preferred a more satisfying end.

It makes me laugh, because I'm socially anxious too.
