![]() Book Review: Red Rising by Pierce Brown.On Rereads: Science Fiction Series Ending in Novem.I hear some characters from this book even come back! I have not yet read the Parasol Protectorate so that may be my next foray into Gail Carriger's steampunk world. I am not ready to say goodbye to this world and these characters. On the whole Manners and Mutiny is a great ending to a fun and entertaining series with quirky and complex characters, a unique and interesting world, and a thrilling plot. A happy medium between the two would have been good. I found a few of the earlier books to be a little slow when it came to the pacing so this being so quick to move from moment to moment was a little surprising. The pace was a little harrowing at times. But I will say, this may have moved a little too fast. Everything lead up to a thrilling conclusion that had me both entertained and concerned. I was on the edge of my seat concerned about what was going to happen to my beloved characters. The stakes are really high and every moment was so full of action. But also because we are finishing a book about finishing there was so much action and adventure going on here. In each book we spend a little time learning about different groups within society and here it was a lot about the Picklemen which was a component that we hadn't learned much about before. There's so much political context of the world and it became a part of the plot. There is so much going on here both at the school and with the larger world. Like most final books in a series, it all really came full-circle and resolved questions and plot points that began in the first couple books. However, while the plot development was something I did love, it also was something I had an issue with. ![]() This was a really great ending to a series that is both fun and engaging with great characters, a thrilling plot. And fans of the series will not be disappointed. So I was really excited to read the last book in the series, Manners & Mutiny, to see how it would all end. Last November I marathoned the Fishing School series and found myself liking it more and more with each passing book. Here's my review of book one, Etiquette and Espionage to encourage you. Read the rest of the Finishing School series first and come back. **** This is the final book in a series and there may be spoilers so proceed with caution. What will become of our proper young heroine when she puts her years of training to the test? Find out in this highly anticipated and thrilling conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Finishing School series!. What does the brusque werewolf dewan know? On whose side is the ever-stylish vampire Lord Akeldama? Only one thing is certain: a large-scale plot is under way, and when it comes to fruition, Sophronia must be ready to save her friends, her school, and all of London from disaster-in decidedly dramatic fashion, of course. She would much rather be using her skills to thwart the dastardly Picklemen, yet her concerns about their wicked intentions are ignored, and now she’s not sure whom to trust. Lessons in the art of espionage aboard Mademoiselle Geraldine’s floating dirigible have become tedious without Sophronia’s sweet sootie Soap nearby. Synopsis: If one must flirt…flirt with danger. Which leads me to believe there's some missing condition.Published: Novemby Little, Brown Books for Young Readers ![]() I've been through dozens upon dozens of scripted events.
