Some of the reviews are going to be about books that I read in sapnish, but I am going to translate them, there is also another Padlet that is the same as this one but in spanish, below you will find the link.

The Children of Húrin by Tolkien (REVIEW)

CheetahUniverse — 2020-05-12 12:44:31 UTC

Calification: 5/5☆☆☆☆☆
Ideal for fans.
Tolkien doesn't let us down with this novel that even though it's a tragedy it is not dense for reading. Ideal for fans that really appreciate the author's work!

You can also find this review in Kobo, link below👇https://www.kobo.com/AR/es/ebook/the-children-of-hurin

REVIEW II:
It was edited by Christopher Tolkien (son) based on his father's writings. This story is found in The Silmarillion, but in this case the plot is extended. It is not recommended for sensitive people, as it is a tragedy. One difficulty when reading it is that it is in older English so there are words that are not used much anymore (e.g. "thee","thou", "art",etc.) and there are no good definitions. Despite everything, the story is very interesting and it greatly expands the Tolkien universe.

The Children of Húrin (SUMMARY)

CheetahUniverse — 2020-05-12 14:18:37 UTC

>>SPOILERS<<
INTRO: Húrin was a man who defied Morgoth, the great evil god, because of this, Morgoth cursed him and all his family: everywhere they went, a shadow of sadness, depression and misfortune would be spread.

This is the story
of Túrin, son of Húrin, heir to the throne. When he was young he lived with his mother, Morwen, and his younger sister, Urwen(her name meant happiness and laughter). But one day Urwen died, and all the happiness and laughter she had
once provided was gone. Meanwhile Morgoth's servants were preparing to attack them, so Morwen sent Túrin to an Elvish kingdom, leaving her and her unborn kid. Túrin grew up in the Elvish kingdom, but one day he got tired and decided
to make his own life, leaving the kingdom with his cursed shadow. He became chief of a group of outcasts in a forest,and two friends joined him: Beleg, an
elf, and Gwindor, a man. Túrin had became proud and superb, and
accidentally killed Beleg with his sword. Gwindor got tired of his personality and left him, so Túrin changed his name to Turambar. One day he found a lost lady in the forest, who was Niënor, Morwen's child, Túrin's sister, whom he had
never met. But Niënor changed her name to Níniel so they didn't recognize each other, and they got married. Once, Túrin had to go and fight a dragon, and he
was knocked off, but not killed. But Níniel thought that he was dead so the dragon told her that they were siblings; she couldn't bear the truth, so she killed herself by jumping into a river. When Túrin woke up and discovered
everything that had happened, he stabbed himself with his sword. At the end there is Húrin and Morwen mourning over their childrens' graves. Morwen died of grief, leaving Húrin as the only surviving member of the family.

An eagle in the snow (review) by Michael Morpurgo

CheetahUniverse — 2020-05-13 15:56:59 UTC

This is a story based on true events. It is the story of a man who could have stopped WWII. A boy in a train listens to the story of a stranger,a retired soldier who had a friend that once had the chance to kill Hitler but he didn’t. Now the World will have to suffer the consecuences…

ENDLING#1 THE LAST(review)

CheetahUniverse — 2020-05-15 14:34:43 UTC

Fantastic. The story itself makes you have lots of emotions such as sadness, anger towards humans and pity towards dairnes. Katherine Applegate never lets us down with her fantastic fantasy novels.

BRAMBLESTAR'S STORM

CheetahUniverse — 2020-05-15 14:42:43 UTC

I think this one tells a challenging story, one about the first Thunderclan's leader after Firestar's death. It tells you Bramblestar's struggles to prove to be as good leader as Firestar, but that he is also different. Will it work?

THE FIRST BATTLE, WARRIORS DAWN OF THE CLANS by Erin Hunter (review with SPOILERS!!!!)

CheetahUniverse — 2020-05-15 14:52:16 UTC

I LOVED how Thunder took part in this epic battle and Clear Sky realizing the bad leader, friend, brother and campmate he had been, and the death it took for him to relize it.

BRAVELANDS#4 SHIFTING SHADOWS by Erin Hunter (review with SPOILERS!!!!)

CheetahUniverse — 2020-05-15 16:47:21 UTC

Excellent, shocking and unexpected plot-twists as always. I can't wait to see how it continues. This books makes you feel pity for Fearless, who was cast out from his own pride; Thorn, who doesn't want to be great-parent; Sky, who left her family behind. I really want to find out more about these spirit. eaters.

A WARRIOR´S SPIRIT (some spoilers)

CheetahUniverse — 2020-05-26 11:20:58 UTC

it was really interesting as always to learn something new from these characters (how Twigbranch and Violetshine got to the tunnel; how Tree got his name; Mothwing's struggle to keep her secret and to deal with her brother). The way the 2 first stories are related is excellent. These novellas are short and provide you with a lot of information. Deserved 5/5 stars.

BRAVELANDS#5 THE SPIRIT EATERS by Erin Hunter

CheetahUniverse — 2020-06-03 11:55:59 UTC

This series is so good! I can't wait for the next book to come out. What will happen next? Its outstanding the way they make all the characters have an important role to play. A story of forgiveness, loyalty and ambition.

BRAVELANDS #5 THE SPIRIT-EATERS by Erin Hunter (SPOILERS!!!)

CheetahUniverse — 2020-06-03 11:57:24 UTC

Things that surprised me and left me broken hearted:
1. Berry's death----> she was so loyal and brave
2. Keen leaving Fearless to go to Mightypride after not being able to stand Fearless ambition of killing Titan.
3. How River truly died.
4. That the wolves by eating the heart of the animals, they were also eating their spirit, and with it, all their power.
5. The Crown Guards coup.

THE SECRET SEVEN ON THE TRAIL review

CheetahUniverse — 2020-06-05 13:00:18 UTC

The way the Secret Seven solve mysteries is amazing. These books make you think and go along them trying to solve the misteries.

Cassidy Blake Cronicles #1 City of Ghosts by Victoria Shwab

CheetahUniverse — 2020-06-11 14:50:23 UTC

This is the first book in The Cassidy Blake Chronicles.
Cassidy is a girl who can see ghosts and break through the veil (which separates the real world from that of the dead). Her best friend, Jacob, who saved her when she drowned, is a ghost. Mr. and Mrs. Blake have a television channel dedicated to looking out for them and hunting them. Cassidy's job, although she didn't know it, was to free the ghosts so they could get to the afterlife. But there are good and helpless spirits, and there are evil and dangerously powerful.
In this case, Cassidy travels to Edinburgh, Scotland, and meets a highly dangerous spirit who wants to take Cassidy the thread that gives her her life. Can Cassidy be saved? Or will she remain forever in the veil?

Cassidy Blake chronicles #1 review and some spoilers

CheetahUniverse — 2020-06-11 14:52:46 UTC

chilling. The fact that the writer chose Scotland as the plce where the story would take place was a very good choice since it combines the picturesque landscape of this city with the cold and creepy place that is the veil. The characters have excellent and lovable personalities. Recommended 5/5.
SPOILERS! There are doubts that remain as:
How did jacob die?
Why was he in the river?
Why does he not like Lara?

MISTBORN TRILOGY BOOK 1: THE FINAL EMPIRE BY BRANDON SANDERSON

CheetahUniverse — 2020-10-09 17:39:45 UTC

THIS BOOK IS AMAZING!
I started this book giving it high hopes . All I can say is that it was as good as I had expected and MORE. I'm officially into the Brandon Sanderson fandom.
It contains:
-epic phrases that also speak about reality
- excelent developed and lovable characters
- interesting and different kind of magic power, which source is metals: Allomancy.
I must say that there is gore and that the parts that are violent, ARE VIOLENT. But I think that that is what it makes this books so good. It really makes you get into the body of the protagonist and view the scenes in her own perspective.
It is about a group of skaa(low class, slaves) thiefs that decide to overthrow the Lord Ruler, which was considered impossible due that this ruler was like a God. Kelsier, the leader of this crew, plans to start a House war between the noble houses to start a distraction so that the Lord Ruler has nobody to defend him and it is easier to overthrow him.
Acually, I was surprised that i liked it because it contains a lot of political and religious content. It was originally published as an adults book but then it was also accepted as juvenile reading. It isnt difficult to follow and in no point you feel like its going slow.
There are heartbreaking, tensioning and even some heartWARMING moments.
Highly recomended if you enjoy fantasy novels.
