The inexorable judge gave the sentence she believed was just despite the roar of outrage the defendant's supporters let loose.



I see that this word's been done before, but it was quite a while ago, so I thought it'd be okay. I kept seeing 'inexorable' in a book I'm reading and was annoyed to find I didn't know what it meant, so I thought I'd look it back up and share.

Yes, yes, I want more of it. What?

Is that one good? I'm determined to read all her books as I've been boldly declaring her my favorite author for several years now, but sometimes the titles and/or book covers deter me. They can make them look so CHEESY. I'll read this one next, then, thank you for the suggestion!

Actually, though, I'm a little unsatisfied with the ending of Hexwood. I just felt like there was so much building and climax and then... welp, that's sorted out now, let's walk back home guys. Sigh. I need to reread it so I can fit together all the pieces.

READ THEM ALL. Some are better than others, it's true, but they all have to be tried because they are amazing. My favourite is Fire and Hemlock, though it doesn't really make sense. I agree about the ending of Hexwood.

Yeeessss yes a select few I can't say I particularly care for, but I love her writing style and the things she tends to feature in her books. I read Fire and Hemlock this summer; it took me a while to get through some of it, but I absolutely LOVED it. Although I love several of her books, Howl's Moving Castle is my absolute favorite and has a very good chance of staying that way. ♥
