Warning: There are spoilers in this blog post!
I am very picky when I chose what I am going to read (except when it is a school novel that I have to read).
Funny story: There is a saying, “never judge a book by it’s cover”. But, one time, I was supposed to read a book for a project at school and I chose this book called, Pillage. It caught my eye because there was a cool looking dragon on the cover. I read the first chapter and I was like, “when is the dragon going to show up?” It started slow then gradually got better once you start reading further into the book. This is just like how Serafina And The Black Cloak turned out to be.
Getting on to what this blog post is actually supposed to be about.
Serafina And The Black Cloak is a very interesting book. Remember when I said that I am very picking when I am closing what to read, that must say something since I actually decided to read beyond the first chapter. The author (Robert Beatty) wrote the book really well. Just a warning though, there are some creepy parts (for me at least), so try not to read it at night when she went into the forest that her father (not her real father) told her not to go into. There are some crazy twists in this book, like the person that you least suspect to be the man in the black cloak.
After reading the book, I realized how much I like mystery genres.
My final rating for this book is a 5 star rating. I would totally read this book again. If you have not already read it, I recommend that you do. There is a whole series, so if you like it, there are plenty more in the Serafina series to read.
