Book Review: The Trials of Morrigan Crow (Nevermoor)



Blurb

Not only does Morrigan Crow's curse means she's blamed for all bad luck, she's also destined to die on her eleventh birthday. She bravely accepts her doom, but in a very surprising twist of fate, before the clock strikes twelve on Eventide and the howling shadow wolves arrive, she is whisked away by a remarkable man called Jupiter North and taken to the city of Nevermoor. Morrigan cannot believe her luck when she is given a once in a lifetime chance to join the Wundrous Society -- a place of mystery, magic, and protection. Only first she must pass four impossible trials using an exceptional talent (which she doesn't have). Racing against time can Morrigan claim her place in the wild, Wundrous city before the shadows catch up with her?


Review

Amazing !!!!

Morrigan Crow is one of the amazing characters in this book. She is smart, witty, kind and brave. She is lonely and she never had friends. The only thing she wanted was people to love her not to be scared of her. The whole city considers her to be cursed and she is destined to die at a very young age but she accepts her fate bravely. Things did change for her and she was swept into the magical world of Nevermoor. 
Nevermoor is WOW with magical creatures and fun people. There is a giant cat, dwarf vampire, centaurs, zombies, witches, unicorn, dragons and everything which a magical world should have. There were lot people who were gifted. It was magical. 

Jupiter North is (the guy who saves Morrigan from death) funny and hilarious. He is too manipulative and also has a unique gift. He is one of the successful men in Nevermoor. He is kind and people of Nevermoor love him. There are many more characters whom will you fall in love with. The villain is genius and he has the unique gift to control the whole city. 

The trials were amazing. The trials decide the whether Morrigan can be the part of Wunderous society in Nevermoor. The trials, twist, creatures, and magic are too good.  I loved everything about this book. I enjoyed reading this book and I want to read the sequel. It will be released in October. If you like middle grade or Harry Potter you will enjoy this too.

Book Review: The Underground Railroad

Blurb Cora is a slave on a cotton plantation in Georgia. All the slaves lead a hellish existence, but Cora has it worse than the most; an outcast even among her fellow Africans, she is approaching womanhood where it is clear that even greater pain awaits. When Caesar, a slave recently arrived from Virginia, tells her about the Underground Railroad, they take the perilous decision to escape the North.   In Whitehead's razor-sharp imagining of the antebellum South, the Underground Railroad has assumed a physical form: a dilapidated box-car pulled along subterranean tracks by a steam locomotive, picking up fugitives wherever it can. Thus Cora embarks on a harrowing journey, seeking true freedom, pursued relentlessly by a terrifying slave catcher named Ridgeway.  As Whitehead brilliantly recreates the unique terrors for black people in the pre-Civil War era, his narrative seamlessly weaves the saga of America, from the brutal importation of Africa...

Technology: Artificial Intelligence (AI)

We get to hear a lot of hype about AI and its applications. AI eases human life or as some believe it is dangerous. This article will give you a brief idea about AI, its application and the impact on the world.    What is AI? AI is a contrast to natural intelligence exhibited by humans. It is a machine which is designed to perceive the events and take actions with maximum probability of success. In a simpler word, the machine mimics human minds. AI replicates the cognitive functions of the human brain which is mainly learning and problem-solving.  As the hype grew through many years, a term came into picture i.e. "AI Effect". It means "whatever hasn't been done yet". Some of the AI capabilities include:  Understanding human speech Competing in strategic games Automated cars Routing in content delivery network Military simulations AI was founded as a part of academic discipline in 1956. It is the combination of various fields like co...

Book Review: The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follet

Blurb In a time of civil war, famine and religious strife, there rises a magnificent Cathedral in Kingsbridge. Against this backdrop, lives entwine Tom, the master builder, Aliena, the noblewoman, Philip, the prior of Kingsbridge, Jack, the artist in stone and Ellen, the woman from the forest who casts a curse. At once, this is a sensuous and enduring love story and an epic that shines with the fierce spirit of a passionate age. Review "The most expensive part of a building is the mistakes" The whole story in this book revolves around the building of a Cathedral. Yes!!! mistakes are the most expensive part of a building. This is seen as the story moves forward. I enjoyed the story and it kept me hooked until the end. The best part of the story is the characters never stopped taking revenge till the end.  Plot:   The plot is set in 1135 AD in a fictional town called Kingsbridge during the civil war in England. The story involves the str...
