Pencilk Gui _ — Gritty, hard hitting, classic crime fiction. I enjoy Hammett's use of language and humor.

Karthick S karthick98 — I first came across American Born Chinese at Giant Robot in San Francisco and ran into it again at a publisher's booth at the midwinter meeting of the American Library Association. At that meeting, it won a major award for young adult literature -- the first graphic novel to receive this award! I read it a few weeks later and loved it. The story is interesting, with one of three plots coming straight from a Chinese legend, and it skillfully explores difficult issues surrounding identity, alienation, racism, and the true meaning of the Transformers. What stands out, for me, is its use of color. The faces of the characters are expressive and the line work is beautiful, but in this book, the lush colors are amazing. Other sections of the book are even prettier than this excerpt available online here: [http://www.firstsecondbooks.com/abc/a...]

A Z beetleaz — Started this a few days ago and it's not like the run-of-the-mill zombie book. Very beautifully written and is more about how we can't let go of our dead than our dead coming back to snack on our brains. But I'm not even half way into it; who knows what weird things might happen later on. I'm really enjoying it so far. ******************************* John Linqvist knows how to write beautiful prose, but I don't understand the purpose behind Handling the Undead. I don't even know why the dead started living--or "reliving"--again. At the end there's a lot of wondering about souls: do we have them?; where do they go when we die? This isn't such a big question for people who already believe in souls. The book follows three families and how they deal with their reliving: A man who lost his wife in a car accident very recently; a grandfather and mother who lost an 8-year-old grandson and son a month before; and an elderly woman whose husband comes back. Of all the stories I think the one about the 8-year-old boy is most interesting. The grief they feel is palpable, and the love and care they show the boy is touching. I thought the old religious lady and her granddaughter--both of whom have "the shine"--were dull cliches. When I finished reading the last page, I kept flipping around wondering if I missed some cataclysmic ending. Nope. It was pretty much not there. So this is a book with a great beginning, an OK middle, and an anti-climatic end. Handling the Undead doesn't come close to touching the brilliance of Let the Right One In.

Choi Yeon mont_perat03cc — Great finish to a great series! Dragon Heir mostly follows Madison Moss and Jason Haley through the ensuing mess after the disaster at Second Sister.

Nehar Kesan nehar — This book was disappointing...not enough intrigue or suspense. Harris failed to develop Sookie's relationships with Quinn, Eric and Bill. (I think she took the easy road here) She failed to develop Bob the cat's storyline (weak), as well as Sookie's relationship with her great-grandfather (superficial). Harris introduced some new characters, but they were mundane, they come out of left-field (?). I don't think she had a clear picture of what she wanted to write...Harris may have given into the pressure of producing a book on a deadline, if so this book was not a Sookie story...I don't know what it was. I'm disappointed. The book was mediocre, with the sense that Harris was trying to wipe the slate clean, which is ridiculus because the characters are already a part of the storyline and should remain so. For example, the Queen, Siegebert, Quinn and Bill are barely even mentioned in this book. Two are killed off, one is dismissed and one is ? (have no idea). These characters make the books interesting, along with Sookie, Pam, Eric and Sam, and to find a quick resolution was a cop out. Makes me wonder about book 9.
