I liked your review, Stephanie! I sampled a few opening pages, and I enjoyed the awesome pictures and the opening poem. I have yet to get the feel for the character development you mention in the review, but my initial impression of this book is that it is a remarkable magical story, and I too would give it a perfect rating.

Thank you for your great review on "The Hermit Gryphon" by Paula Grover. I am not into the fantasy genre but this book looks like an interesting read. It's got a thrilling plot with great character development and themes of acceptance, trust, and forgiveness.

Despite the fact that this book is labeled as Sci-Fi/Fantasy, in my opinion, it is more mythology than anything else and my, what a story it presents! It sounds like an epic tale of redemption and becoming a real person worth being respected. Congratulations on BOTD!

"The Hermit Gryphon" by Paula Grover is an intriguing and unpredictable fictional fantasy novel. The plot revolves around Tal's journey to redeem herself. I like how the characters in the book are developed, especially the character Tal and her emotions and thoughts.

[Hannah Gregoria]

Fictional fantasies anew always a delight to read. Tap must have gone through a lot in a bid to redeem herself. I love that the character in the book were well developed. Great review!

Quite an interesting journey for Talona, all these experiences come together to provide a truly likable story. I hope Tal finally gets the healing she needs.

[Pranav Dewangan]

The way she captures the complexities of love through her poetry, combined with the simplicity of her language, makes it so accessible and relatable. I’m particularly drawn to how her poems provide comfort and guidance during tough times.

"The Hermit Gryphon follows Tal’s journey to redeem herself by oppressing the other gryphons." I like stories where characters try to redeem themselves. However, I don't think I like how Tal intends to go about it. Well, I'd love to see how it unfolds.

[Marie Chalupová]

This sounds like an amazing and original fantasy. Even if it can be read as a standalone I would prefer to check out the prequel first.

[Lara Hamdan]

As I generically don’t read fantasy, this book seems to be the perfect story to settle into after a long day. The characters and the adventures carry the reader through indulging excitement and connection. Amazingly written, it’s a must read.

[Victory Ositaorah]

It sad that Tal trusting the Gargoyles was a mistake and this plot of this book seems complex and I would surely relax to read this book and comprehend better.

"The Hermit Gryphon" by Paula Grover. An interesting fictional fantasy story, talks about Sunsky who is the oracle queen. Tal in this story was hated by her people. This book is full of mysteries, action and eventful. Congrats on your #BOTD.

It sounds like *The Hermit Gryphon* has a compelling narrative centered around redemption and personal growth, which is emphasized through the character of Tal. From what you've shared, it seems that the review highlighted the depth of Tal's character development and the vivid imagery of the book. The idea of Tal starting as a figure of hatred and moving towards healing, with the help of a friendship with Griper, adds a meaningful layer to the story. It's also great to hear that the book can stand alone, even as a sequel, and that it's appropriate for a wide audience. I’m curious about how the themes of acceptance and forgiveness play out in Tal’s journey. How does her relationship with Griper influence her transformation? The unpredictable plot and detailed illustrations also sound like they enhance the overall reading experience. Your review makes me want to explore the world of *The Hermit Gryphon* and see how Tal’s journey unfolds.
