The Blair Book Project
Hello! I'm Janus. I am a 3D Graphics Artist by profession, and a proud Book Addict - i mean Enthusiast, and Blogger. I'm very much into Young Adult and Fantasy genre but I open myself to reading other genres from time to time. I run a blog launched as The Blair Book Project on Blogger, where I post entries such as my book reviews and other book related articles. I obviously got the name of this blog for the movie "The Blair Witch Project," why the name you may ask? I have no idea! I just thought it had a good ring to it. Ha! Ha! I post reviews twice a week and I regularly participate in book memes and features that readers and blogger all over the globe share their book interests (i.e. In My Malibox, Top Ten Tuesdays, etc). I have 230 GFC Followers. My blog has over 37,000 pageviews history and have roughly 200 page views per day. I have written over 267 reviews since my span of blogging. I am also an avid Instagram user, with over 350 followers, where I post pictures mostly of books I'm currently reading, books I got for review, galleys, purchased from bookstores, etc. (Statistics as of March 2013). My book reviews are not exactly "reviews" in a sense because I simply just type down what I feel about the book. What I write is solely my opinion and should not be taken as a definite basis of how the book is to be judged entirely. We all have different likes and dislikes so please do understand that although I'm very optimistic about the books I read, there will be negative comments towards those that I don't find suiting for my taste.

| "It seems to me, that no matter what we do, no matter what choices we make, there isn't a happy ending waiting at the end of the long road... But that doesn't mean we give up. It doesn't mean we stop fighting" So much death! It hurts! Danielle L. Jensen has baffled me once again! She came out strong with debuting Stolen Songbird last year and here she is again keeping readers hanging at the edge of their seats with Hidden Huntress. Following shortly with the events that ended in Stolen Songbird, Hidden Huntress opens up to a whole new adventure for Cecile. Cecile was a strong character during the first book, but I have to admit that book two gave me a different perspective on her personality. It may not have been a pleasing one, but it was understandable considering her situation. I can't blame her that desperation and longing might have tipped her off balance. Tristan remains to be the ever heroic prince that he is. While circumstances from book one gained him more enemies than before, he redeems himself otherwise. Plot-wise, Hidden Huntress is a solid and well developed story. You may make presumptions and guesses with the events that follow, but you'll never be truly sure what happens next. Ms. Jensen's writing makes it so that the story remains intriguing and unpredictable each step of the way. The pacing is much faster than its predecessor, although still keeps readers well informed. Be warned though, expect it to be a bit on the slow side. But do not fret, the story flows smoothly and progresses well albeit slowly, and I promise you the patience you draw out will be worth it in the end. I really enjoyed reading Hidden Huntress and it pains me that I have to wait until next year for book three, although I shouldn't be surprised. Stupid sequels! I hate you! Okay I take that back, I love sequels, but the waiting just kills me! *Thank you, Angry Robot Books and NetGalley for granting my request to view Hidden Huntress.
