the iron king by julie kagawa chapters 12 to the end

i told you yesterday i would try to read the rest of the book last night. well i did. it was a really good book. in chapter 12 meghan goes to a party at the seelie court where the unseelie court was going to be there. and she meets a prince from the unseelie court who had tried to kill her not long after enter the nevernever. and while at the court a monster attacks. chapter 13 she escapes from the seelie court to continue looking for her brother. she has to escape thru her and it was easier to the unseelie court thru her world also. and she learns she has powers but she doesnt know how to use them. chapter 14 she meets a mean unseelie fairy. as she goes to the door that will carry her to the unseelie court. chapter 15 her best friend returns to help look for her brother. she enters into the nevernever at the unseelie court where the unseelie prince was waiting for them. chapter 16 she meets the iron fairy (well i guess i should say iron fey because that is how it is spelled in the book and fairy is spelled faery in the book also so sorry for my spelling mistakes). the iron fey tries to kidnap her to carry her to the iron king. and she also learns that iron king has her brother. but her best friend and unseelie prince rescue her from the iron fey. chapter 17 meghan, robbie (her best friend), and ash (the unseelie prince) and the cat (you cant forget the cat) team to go get her brother and learn more about the iron fey. and they go to this faery that lives in meghan's world (the human world) to see if she knows where the iron king lives and how to kill him. but first they have to rest because the iron fey had hurt ash so he had to heal. and then meghan gets drunk on faery wine. chapter 18 the meet up with the faery that lives in human world and the learn where the iron fey is at and how to kill the iron king. chapter 19 the go to the park where the weapon to kill the iron king is at. also her best friend robbie is hurt and the he goes into like a coma for the faery to heal and she doesnt know when he will wake up. chapter 20 meghan and ash and even the cat is leaving the park to go to nevernever where the iron fey lives. but the cat tells them he is leaving them. so it is just ash and meghan. ash kisses meghan. chapter 21 they meet the iron fey knights. chapter 22 ash risks his life to save meghan so she could continue to on her mission of rescuing her brother and kill the iron king. chapter 23 meghan meets the iron king and she learns that ash isnt dead like she thought. chapter 24 the iron king tries to make a deal with meghan. chapter 25 meghan carries her brother home. (the end of the book)


okay now my thoughts on the book. the is really good. i give it a 4 stars out of 5. the reason i didnt give it all 5 stars because of some of the bad words in it. it is suppose to be a teen book. so if you have kids or teens and you dont want them to read books with bad words then dont let them read this book if you dont care it is a good book for them to read.

the iron king by julie kagawa

i am reading the iron king by julie kagawa. so far i have only read one chapter. and it has been a pretty good book so far. in the first chapter a girl name meghan father comes up missing when she is 6 years old. and her mother moves them to some other town where she meets a pig farmer and marry him. and then she has a little brother. then it goes to where she is fixing to 16 years old. the day before her birthday she gets ready for school goes down to breaksfast and her mother is gone to town for some kind of meeting. and her stepfather is sitting and reading a newspaper and feeding her little brother. her stepfather treats like she is not there at times. her neighbor scares her nearly to death (you know how 15 year olds are. ) meghan goes to school and is suppose to be tutoring her crush but that turns out bad. then she finds out when her mom comes to pick her up that her little brother is hurt by some monster while she is at school but her mother and stepfather thinks it was the dog. and that is where chapter one ends.

i will try to read chapter two tonight and tell you about it tomorrow.
