Soulless

"What a tale of history, fantasy and adventure"

Story

Would you listen to Soulless again? Why?

I'm not much for rewatching movies or rereading books.We shall see but if I did this would be a good one to revisit.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Soulless?

I've enjoyed this entire series. I'm on the last two books now which is why I'm revisiting the review section to give it due. These books have been very entertaining.

“How ghastly for her, people actually thinking, with their brains, and right next door. Oh, the travesty of it all.” ― Gail Carriger, Soulless

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I've loved these books and listening to the Miss Terriboti grow up into a women of measures. She is beyond interesting as a character. I'm so happy Emily Gray remained the reader for all the books.

You really get into the book through the reader and she gives each character their own voice and emotion. The way she pitches the doctors voices in later books with enthusiasm or gives Ivy her snuffy airless ring. The adventures really come to life. I've even googled meany of the era's mentioned happenings like the dirigible travel to learn more and found a steam punk group in my city.

Any additional comments?

If my former comments where not enough I'd just like to reiterate how much I've enjoyed these books and hopes the author continues with them. They would make for very interesting movies, although the producers would probably never do it justice. The ware-wolves, phantoms, souless and vampires all become lovable characters. This book is not a drama but an adventure full of mystery, wonder and excitement. This is the book in the series that gets you to fall in love, as Miss Terriboty would.

  1. Some of the best romance novels are those that tell a story of love in a very dramatic way. I'm sure you have your very own romance story that you think is the best. There are very many factors that readers consider when they are judging a novel to be the best. นิยาย
