Let’s talk about my favorite thing in any book: WORLDBUILDING. There are NEW CREATURES GUYS. I love them. They’re the best. I guess I can’t actually talk about this much without spoiling? But know there are some new worldbuildilng elements in G&M that really add to the magic of the story. Gingold, Michael (16 February 2023).

If a person is going to do a murderous Pooh movie, the least they owe to their audience is a passable simulacrum of Pooh, imbued with an identifiably Pooh-like essence. Creative license lies at the heart of the argument in favor of public domain, the notion that concepts shouldn’t be off-limits to artists looking to engage with them. Anything short of that is just slapping a proper noun on generic chaff as a shortcut to distinction, an act of lazy greed that would deserve any litigation coming to it. And in the end, isn’t making ordinary citizens side with Disney’s legal department far more offensive than foisting unforgivable atrocities on literature’s cuddliest bear? Thank the deity that Shelby Mahurin made a trilogy out of this because if she were to leave the things like that I would’ve been extra pissed off.

Coco and Ansel are as always: my favourite munchkins. And I even started to like Beau more. To be honest I found his addition to the crew in Serpent and Dove to be somewhat random. But he's grown on me. The story gets darker, more rushed, excruciating at some point and everything you have to do is sit there and sweat because that action is heart-pumping. Everything becomes more visual, more terrifying. And even so, the main motif of the whole book seems to be the blindness of one’s mind. Ok so I still don't like her that much. I mean, there kind of has to be a median: at some points in this book, I hated her to the point that I wanted to fling my book at the wall. At other points I wanted her to be my best friend. I actually think Lou would make a great best friend. She's selfless, loyal, and brave. But she can also be incredibly annoying. Ah, I love Coco. She's so smart and some things she said in this book made me grin so much. I can't really say much else because I have no idea what to say, since if I add more on, I'm literally going to repeat what I just said with different words.

Rate And Review

Célie and Jean Luc joining the scene: At first, I felt like they were there just for the plot’s sake (and to some extent they were), but I ended up enjoying seeing the development they had. Célie was no longer the character that only existed to create tension between the protagonists, and Jean Luc stopped being the envious friend. They both showed personality and I liked the roles they played in everything. a b " Winnie-The-Pooh: Blood and Honey (2023) - Financial Information". The Numbers. Nash Information Services, LLC .

I like to think I’m a calm reader in the sense that I don’t like, throw a book at the wall. There was a moment in this book where I absolutely threw the book at the wall (it was actually my e-reader and it hit a pillow thank God BUT STILL). There were a lot of moments in this where I just…AH. I screamed. I’ve managed to survive 2021 without rating a book 1 star UNTIL NOW. So, thank you Shelby Mahurin for taking that away and ruining my year. There wasn’t anything that I enjoyed in this installment. And that’s saying something considering I had no expectation at all going into it. NONE, except that I was ready for the worst. Now, it’s verified. Not even the romance made me feel anything—because, CAN YOU EVEN TELL ME WHERE IT’S AT? I understand that characters needed to show some growth and the world building to expand, but why did the story have to be drawn out THIS much, THIS long. All it did was make me lose my care for everything altogether because I couldn’t find the things that made me fall in love with the first book; regardless that you finally get the ending you’ve been waiting for, and you find closure in this book. Ugh. I’m not disappointed. I’m unreservedly bitter. If there’s anything worse than Covid-19 in the last two years, it’s the last two books in this series. Yes, I said it. No further comment, but this: Serpent & Dove IS a standalone as far as I’m concerned. And may whoever responsible for turning this into a trilogy burn in hell! It’s been real, y’all.

Here, I am going to play the French teacher and correct every single one of them. There are so many that I spotted while reading that it hurts my eyes! Feel free to skip to the next paragraphs if you are not interested. Shelby Mahurin writes French like she writes English, which is wrong because both languages are so different in so many ways, so are the sentence structure and grammar. a b " Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey (2023)".

Después de ese final de infarto que me dejó SHOOK, vamos a saber que pasó, en un inicio todo es muy confuso sabemos que poseyeron a Lou pero todavía no se sabe las consecuencias pero poco a poco se va revelando todo y OH MY GOD!!. Toda esa primera parte es resolver ese gran problema y fue bastante creepy y tenemos escenas muy buenas en esta parte de la historia. Me ha gustado como ha sido el desenlace de la historia, incluso me ha dado pena despedirme de estos personajes. Si es verdad que me hubiera gustado ver más la esencia del primer libro, sobre todo en la relación de los personajes principales Reid y Lou.Since the disappointment from the last instalment, I started the book without any expectations, though I did hope it wouldn't be a letdown. And I guess it helps because the book ends up being passable. And when everything is a matter of life and death for us, the stakes are higher. The more we gain, the more we lose.” Let me tell you my villain origin story, something that this book series did not even bother to have. I want to classify this series as plastic Fantasy Romance.

Me? *glances around; points at self* Oh I'm total fine after that ending. And by “totally fine” I mean: NOT AT ALL. I think the only reason as to how I managed to finish this mess was the audiobook. It wasn't a great audiobook by any means, I can't say I liked the narrators (both Lou and Reid had their own narrators) and the performance wasn't the best either. I've listened to quite a few audiobooks at this point and I can see this is close to the bottom of my list from favourites to least favourites. But at least it helped me get through the novel. I usually listened while also reading along, but I have to admit there were times when I just didn't really care enough to bother understanding what I was listening to. Lou and Reid's wedding: This was very nice, and I liked that it was narrated by Ansel. Nothing more to say.Lou and Reid take up to the masses of making me continuing the series. Even when (sadly) the romance has still not become the focus in the book as it did in Serpent and Dove, I still find myself enjoying seeing the character's arc in both of them; where they feel more like themselves than they did in Blood and Honey. The friendship between Beau and Lou: In general, I loved Beau throughout the entire book, but something especially remarkable is the beautiful relationship between these two characters. I loved that they were always there for each other and their mutual understanding. Beau knew exactly the right words to say to keep Lou from collapsing! He’s amazing.

Blood & Honey made their relationship go downhill for me, so it was nice to see them act more like themselves again and see the romance unfolding once more. It made me laugh a lot. When the trailer for Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey hit the internet last year, it produced a mild viral hysteria. The angriest Pooh fans accused director Rhys Frake-Waterfield of invading their childhood psyches, the creative equivalent of napalming 100 Aker Wood. When the film was released in theaters, critics mauled it, agreeing “ this Pooh stinks.” Others—50 percent of the audience on Rotten Tomatoes and a profitable proportion of Mexico—appreciated its gruesome absurdity.
