I love to read. I guess that's pretty obvious now. Been reading novels since I was in grade school. I think I started with Nancy Drew then moved to Sweet Valley Twins, then Sweet Valley High. Honestly, I cannot pick one favorite book or one favorite author. So I'm allowing myself to have ten favorite books of all time (in no particular order).

Fiction Flings #1
Whenever I read books, there are times when I can't help myself but develop an admiration for a male character. Call it a crush, if you may. Here's what I call my "Fiction Flings", it has two vampires, a Fairy Prince, a Nephilim and a Divergent.

The Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa
When I first read the series with The Iron King, I liked it and got hooked easily. When I read, I usually breeze through the description and focus on the dialogues. But with this series, I found myself reading them word for word.
Before going into the other stuff I like about this book, I'll get this off my chest.. I hate Ari! I know she sacrificed being with Ash so that Meghan and Ash could meet and be together. I admire her for that. It takes a lot of courage to walk away and give up someone you love. Personally, I'm not sure I can do that. However, since she already made a decision she shouldn't be flirting, making hints or professing her feelings for Ash. It's just not right.
With that done, I'll continue praising this novel. This is about Prince Ash and his quest towards becoming mortal. I have to hand it to him for giving up something as huge as his immortality to be with Meghan. I think it's the ultimate sacrifice. I applaud his determination because throughout his journey he never wavered even if the obstacles seem insurmountable. I can just wish I meet someone who loves like he does.
Another thing that I took note on this novel is the Wolf's sacrifice. He stayed behind so that the others can pass through and continue on the quest, and to think that they are not really friends in the strict sense of the word. It is difficult to find a friend or anyone for that matter who has your back, someone you can really rely on.
This book is about love, sacrifice and friendship. It's funny, interesting, easy to read. It made me think about the relationships I have and will have. I highly recommend this book and the whole series.
