Review:This book is an interesting read. It feels almost like a series of short stories that all happen to be about the same character written at different times and later strung together. That's not to say it's bad, just different. I actually very much enjoyed it and look forward to more in the future. Read more

Review:Absolutely loves this book. Her October Daye series gets better with each book!! So sad I have to wait a year for the next installment. Seanan McGuire knows how to wrap up a book but keep you in suspense and wanting for the next book. Read more

Review:I am very disappointed that the third book of Seanan McGuire's wonderfully creative series isn't yet release as an audible.com, and I hope that will be corrected in the near future. Audible books are the only way he can enjoy so many of these great books, and to have hooked people on the first two books, but not bring in the next novel is just cruel. Please, Amazon, take the action to record this book soon!" Read more

Review:Verity Price didn’t know that the all-star dance reality tv show. Dance or Die, really meant its title. She had won second place in an earlier season. Then she had retired from dancing to go back to her family’s full time job of rescuing cryptids and had even gotten married, when the call came. Seanan McGuire’s fourth tale about the part-time dancer, Chaos Choreography(paper from DAW) has contestants and producers trying call on a snake god by ritually slaughtering the losing dancers. The talk... Read more

Review:Everything I've read by Seanan has been fantastic. She develops wonderful characters and her backdrops and situational descriptions truly come alive. I would, and have recomended this and her other books to anyone who will listen. Read more

Review:This book presents an entirely new experience. It has aspects of comic books I enjoyed as a kid. It quotes and uses much of the Koran in the story. Its illustrated borders and Arabic script are outstanding. The story line is pretty good. Depending on how one wants to interpret the story and illustrations one might either say that it is pornographic or that it has a religious meaning. I feel that it is both. Read more

Review:Edgewise is a great read, with lots of humor that pops in at unexpected moments, and it really captures the feel of urban California life, but what I liked best about it was that it moved me. It's great to be entertained, but books that can not only do that but also make you feel something for the characters don't come along every day. I'm hoping for a sequel so I can see more of these great characters! Read more

Review:This is one of my absolute favourite books, and always has been. With Pat Conroy's truly exceptional characterization and story builiding, you would think the events listed in this book are true and the characters real people you could bump into if you ever wondered down South. His use of language is exquisite and the cadences of speech and ebb and flow of emotion and plot points are beautifully woven. Read it! Read more

Review:Patton Oswald's Zombie Spaceship Wasteland is a jumble of moments remembered and twisted fantasies conceived, assembled into a hallucinatory narrative that tells many stories, but mostly paints a picture of the inner world of one of our generation's best comedians.
Oswald's constant pursuit to improve, to never settle for having a "thing", a comedic gimmick, is shown in the process of book. Much like Stephen King's On Writing, Zombie Spaceship Wasteland is a portrait. It leaves you knowing mo... Read more
