The sword & the sophomorehouse

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review I really enjoyed all of the Arthurian myths and legends that were woven into this book I really enjoyed the magic in the book too This book really makes me want to reread all of the legends of Arthur and his knights of the round table I wonder how this series will continue as the book seemed to wrap everything up nicely B. EPub The Sword & the sophomore meaning P Sweany is a YA Arthurian retelling that follows Rosemary THE popular girl at school as she deals with a high school break up trying not to show up the boys sports teams with her unmatched strength and speed and discovering she is THE prophesied child of Guinevere bearer of Excalibur. The sword & the sophomore book 2 Pros interesting take on Arthurian legend Audiobook was very well narrated lovely to see a narrator commit to accentsCons Constant use of cringe slang that does nothing for the character or plot I swear I never wanna hear gigglemug ever again MC is a 16 year old tattooed not like other girls pick me I really struggled to care while listening cause I just found the MC insufferable Key plot point of prophecy is the possible SA of MC I m all for about talking about SA in a YA when not gratifying and is handled well but making the be all and end all of a prophecy and the characters discussing it as such is just icky Characters are not fleshed out and seem to only provide a voice to tell MC where to go I was so interested in hearing about Guinevere and Lancelot but they felt so flat. EPub The Sword & the sophomore year P Sweany As a high school teacher who is passionate about students reading their own books I come across a lot of YA books I read a TON of them or at least start them so I can book talk them into the hands of my reluctant readers I find a lot of YA to be dumbed down drama for the sake of drama. The sword & the sophomoreling While SatS is marketed as YA fantasy it doesn t read that way Think Buffy the Vampire Slayer meets Veronica Mars The characters are realistic yet mythical sarcastic yet likable The writing is smart which I appreciate BP Sweany writes in a universal teen voice that nails the high school experience without resorting to stereotypes and juvenile vocabulary And don t get me started on metaphor Omg So cool And smart Did I already say that Can t wait for book 2 B. The sword & the sophomore book 1 P Sweany Thank you NetGalley and RB Media Recorded Books for allowing me to listen to an early copy of this book 5King Arthur s myth travels in time to end up in a modern American Highschool mix this with a female lead full of sass teenage hormones and an ancient mage with a serious case of Benjamin Button and you will have a hilarious YA fantasy. The sword & the sophomorejack The story was very interesting and I loved all the movie song references in it I think this is the perfect book for 17 yo and the author did a great job portraying the ups and downs of a teenage girl. The sword & the sophomorehouse The book lost me a little by the end I wasn t a fan of how the plot unraveled and how things were left in between the characters I know Rosemary is just a teenage girl and she can and should change his mind on stuff but the ending felt a little anticlimactic. Book the sword & the sophomore season P Sweany Arlynn Rosemary Banson is an atypical sixteen year old the cool popular outsider effortlessly straddling the line between divas and dorks Her forever young mother Jennifer is dedicated to making her life awkward by trying to be her friend Her father Alan is a workaholic history professor who barely acknowledges his family s existence Her boyfriend Benz the quarterback and homecoming king has just broken up with her while her best friend Joslin bears reluctant witness to Rosemary s romantic drama But nothing prepares any of them for a Welsh foreign exchange student named Emrys Balin Emrys looks like a teenager but he seems to act much much older Rosemary discovers she is part of the Lust Borne Tide children born to the royal line of King Uther Pendragon who are imbued with mystical powers after being conceived in lust Rosemary s parents are Guinevere and Lancelot banished by King Arthur to twenty first century suburban America prior to Rosemary s birth as punishment for their affair Rosemary is the third in the Lust Borne line after King Arthur and his son Mordred the latter of whom has traveled to the future to continue the line of the Lust Born Tide by retrieving Rosemary and returning her to the late fifth century to conceive a child with her But Rosemary has other plans plans that involve training under Emrys and kicking Mordred s butt as long as it doesn t interfere with prom or getting back with her boyfriend Benz Action packed and funny but also serious and insightful The Sword and the Sopho goes beyond usual YA fantasy tropes to confront real life teenage issues of social cliques relationships sexual agency and profound personal loss The Sword u0026 the SophoThe Sword and the Sopho is the first book in the American Martyr Trilogy The story follows Rosemary Banson as she discovers her Arthurian heritage and a dubious prophecy Emrys aka teenage Merlin is my favorite character and makes a great great friend and mentor. Book the sword & the sophomore chapter This audiobook was fantastic I loved how the narrator was able to capture the different accents from American teenager to Welsh boy or English Mom I never felt like anything was over the top either Rosemary s sarcasm was met with good timing and humour. The sword & the sophomoreling Though sometimes especially when the main character was talking I couldn t tell what was thoughts what was actually said out loud what was just narrator comments which sometimes got a bit frustrating. Book the sword & the sophomore chapter Hoo boyI forced myself through the first part because the main character is just so incredibly annoying She s this Not trying but still popular outsider already so special and then becomes even special So self centered that it honestly surprises me she still has friends by the end. The sword & the sophomoreling Maybe with a different main character i would have enjoyed this book a lot Though most of the time it felt like nothing was happening The description of this book made me believe there would be actual time magic and other magic happeningbut then 90% of the book was just generic high school teen drama. The sword & the sophomore pdf download Emris is an incredibly interesting character and towards the end Rosemary main character actually started becoming bearable though it still annoyed me that she basically didnt know what she wanted But that can be glossed over She s 16 after all. The sword & the sophomore epub ebook download For a teen drama this was a fairly good one Characters that seemed flat in the beginning having clichees one sees all too often in these types of stories ended up actually having some substantial depth to them and rising far far above these clichees. Book the sword & the sophomore season But even for the first book in the series this was a little too much setup and too little happening Aaaand the romance was slightly unbelievable as it didn t build up at all. The sword & the sophomorejack I wished we got some of certain characters like the main character s mother who is always said to be this total badass but then only has one scene where she shows for half a second what she can do. Epub the sword & the sophomore season So imagine my surprise that I actually liked Rosemary quite much in fact I loved her sarcastic humour and sassy ass too much I get she seemed too self motivated and selfish but she made me laugh so much that I will just ignore her selfishness. The sword & the sophomore book review The sword and the sopho is Arthurian retelling which involves everything Arthur related So there s Arthur Merlin Morgan and all the characters that comes with the platter And yeah Excalibur too Rosemary is a teenager with raging hormones and infuriating parents a mom trying too hard to be friends and a dad who is absent most of the times She has a boyfriend Benz and a best friend Jocelyn and a mortal enemy Amery Yeah so almost everything is typical or too obvious but also Rosemary is than that She is Guivenere s daughter born out of passion There are so many positive things about this book and so are negatives too So let s see what I liked about it We can say that this book has a typical setting with a teenager with one best girlfriend one girl she hates one boy she is in love with or thinks she is in love with Yeah I know so cliche and even then this book was too fun to listen Maybe coz of narration There is never dull moment in the book the interactions between characters are fun to listen and there are many laugh out loud moments The narration is spot on too good that kept me hooked to the book Emerys is love and even though Rosemary isn t exactly a likeable character I loved her. The sword & the sophomore book 1 Now what I didn t like Even though the book isn t dull There s very less action in the book There are only 3 action scenes to be honest so action would have saved this Book for me Given a fantasy world it would have been great to read about it Many characters are just shown to accept Rosemary s secrets in a very casual ways like it was how things happen in routine The character development is very poor Especially Rosemary s parents Only characters which I feel are developed are Emerys Rosemary and to some extent Jocelyn The end felt rushed And not so great It happened in last 5 % of the book after about almost 90% of the book was done and it was a huge letdown There are so many moments where it felt dumb that people in the book including Rosemary were living a totally normally life Most book is conversations between characters and even though it was enjoyable it didn t really add anything to the story or didn t raise the excitement I think that s a poor way of writing Rosemary s obsession with Benz was too much about 30 40% of the book she is thinking about him I know that s how teenagers act but it was annoying Also there are 2 3 points where they seemed to make up and then in the next scene they behaved like they didn t so again it was shown that they were trying to make up It was really confusing World building is very poor Even when this is supposed to happen in present but there are too many loopholes to mention. The sword & the sophomoreknight P Sweany I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook The narrator adeptly captures teenage angst and shines in action scenes While the pacing wasn t to my liking with the final 20% seeming rushed I liked that all character storylines were wrapped up neatly without any cliffhangers Certain elements of the writing suggest it s a debut B.
