Review:I really appreciated the fact that because the publisher wasn't letting the book go Kindle at first, Amazon stepped up and offered the hardcover in it's place for the same price.

I love this series, it is so well written, the characters are made to feel as though they are your friends. I am going to hate when this series is over, but, I'm sure we will be made to feel the same about the next series. Read more

Review:I thought this book was just as awesome as the previous ones. Richelle Mead has you wanting more right upto the last page and then you want the next book. I liked the twist in this one. Shadowkissed is still my favourite. Read more

Review:The economics of supply and demand, had Mt. Zeus been successfully repositioned to the proximity of Earth, would have effectively lowered its intrinsic value to little more than that of purified water. Read more

Review:Wow this is a must read for anyone whos needing help and guidance with writing! This book not just help amateurs who are only now starting out with writing but also helps with the most experienced.

I also found with the style of how this was written came across more friendly and it felt more compassionate unlike wi... Read more

Review:Contained long glimpses of brilliance. There were a few pieces I simply did not get. Others were scary accurate. Overall, one more experience of the magic that is his writing. I'll have to decide whether to read future DFW on my phone's Kindle app. Hard to maneuver the (essential) footnotes. Read more

Review:If you like bravura prose this is a must-read; if your taste runs to short, affect-less little sentences don't bother, this is not the book for you. How good is good? This good: the essay on the tennis pro is so moving, profound, and brilliantly crafted you'll want to read it twice in a row, even if you cultivate an active dislike for sports in general and athletes in particular, as I do. The essay on the Illinois state fair is so vivid, intense, funny, sad, and deep that you'll not only fee... Read more

Review:Read other reviews for plot and character analysis.

I'm new to DFW, I'll admit. But I've extensively read up on the author and am familiar with his reputation as toeing the line between literary genius and madman. So, as I have with all fiction, I felt the compulsion to read his works chronologically so as to pick up on any subtle nuances in later works, and picked up a copy of The Broom. This rule has its pros and cons. Obviously, if The Broom left me confused and angry, it could dissuad... Read more

Review:finishing 2666 leaves you both glad its over and wanting more. Bolano's final work is a true capstone; worthy of the praise heaped on it and yet still imperfect, flawed in some ways that almost make the book better. But I get ahead of myself.

The book is divided into 5 sections; each one orbits around parts of the story. Santa Teresa, and to a lesser degree, the enigmatic author Archimboldi for the center of the mass.

The first book, "The Part About the Critics", is, by far, the "h... Read more

Review:I am writing a review primarily to encourage anyone interested in Wallace but feeling intimidated by the prospect of this "unfinished" work to take the leap and read it. I came to it after Infinite Jest, many of the short stories and journalism, and also after reading the D.T. Max biography of Wallace. I was not interested in the book standing alone. I was interested in how it fit with Wallace's other writing, his life, and his death. The book is unfinished, but if read more like short stori... Read more

Review:My mother-in-law introduced me to Karin Slaughter, and I have become a fan. This is my second book, and I am trying to figure out which one I want to read next. My first read of her's was Fractured. I would recommend reading this one also. Read more
