Andrea Havens aparajon — Haunting and beautiful.

José A jmtzfdezeb00 — This is another book that I'm not *excited* to tell people about, because it's not exactly "literature", but it's a good summer-type read. At least for me - it's actually a pretty dark story about three siblings and their horrific traumatic family, and contains the single most disturbing scene I've ever read in a book. But it's also not a book where you have to over-work your brain to figure it all out. Call it an un-happy medium.

Kristina Amandaa amandacruz — I have no idea how I came across this book....I had no clue what it was about...around page 120 I was about to stop reading it because NOTHING was happening, then it got pretty intense and I had to finish it. It was pretty good minus a few unnecessary parts.

Starlet Martin starletbxb666 — A fangirl biography of Pallas Athena. What is not to love! It's written by a Mt. Holyoke professor and touches on the modern cultural relevance of Athena. Should be fun! EDIT: Well I finished it. Actually the author just retells the myths in which Athena appears. She also makes a number of suppositions that even an Athena fan girl (such as myself) would find doubtable. I find it difficult to believe that Athena was the basis for the African goddesses (especially knowing Aphrodite hails from Africa). I also fail to see how Athena, a virgin goddess is the archetypal monotheistic goddess. In fact I would argue it is Hera, who was then subjugated and ridiculed by the Greeks. But despite all her claims about how awesome Athena is...the retelling of myths is pretty good and some of her commentary is excellent.

Nichapa Chokearee nichapacho7f64 — I've read this book a couple times. It's a dark, twisted tale that could be a psuedo biography for a filmmaker like Todd Verow, Bruce LeBruce, John Waters or Pier Paulo Passolini. It's a disturbing look at line between art and masturbatory porn and the destructive drives behind the auteur gone awry.

P Guemmer pguemmer — Wow, Angels and Demons was every bit as good as The DaVinci Code, if not better! Really love the fact that the author has personal knowledge of the subject matter and setting of his books. Creates some reality to his fiction, and shows exceptional credibility. As always, this one ripped along at a fantastic pace, and kept the reader wanting more. I spent several late nights staying awake long after bed-time just to find out what's next. I adore that in any book! Dan Brown has a new one on the shelves this week, and I am certainly getting it as soon as possible. Can't get enough of his writing..

廖 晏琳 aa048376927a0c — Depressing as hell at times, but it’s one of my favorite books ever! Are you a fan of Peter Pan? Great! Are you a fan of the horror genre? Even better. Just expect a bit of a twist on this classic fairy tale, infusing horror--both traditional and psychological--that you'll find chilling and fairly thought-provoking. We meet Peter, whose mission is to recruit as many kids (Devils) as possible, bringing them to Avalon (a warped version of Never Never Land) to help defeat his pirate adversaries, save his ailing queen, and restore Avalon to the once beautiful place that it was. Of course, Peter doesn't choose just any children. The book kicks off making it very obvious that he connects with those who have been abused and battered. He saves them, wanting to give them a better life. But is it really better? Where do Peter's priorities and loyalties really lie? To his Devils, or to his queen? These question are challenged through Peter's newest recruit. While we meet a number of children, the second protagonist of this series would be Nick. He's living in the mean streets of NYC when Peter finds him under attack by a group of thugs who routinely terrorize him and threaten to hurt his drugged out mom. Peter helps do away with them and coaxes Nick to join him for this "better life". Little did he mention the whole part about that pesky little war going on. Unfortunately for Peter, Nick is not a blind follower. Unfortunately for Nick, all of Peter's Devils are. How does Nick plan to deal with this? This book is absolutely not for children. The amount of gore, death, abuse, and torture (which both the adults and children are subjected to) I imagine is even disturbing for many adults. But I for one love the dark and vivid world Brom creates. It just takes everything we knew about the Peter Pan tale and turns it upside down making it familiar, but far removed from everything we thought we knew. The lesson is clear: don't be tempted by forbidden fruit. No matter how bad things are in your life, switching it for another life may not necessarily be for the better...and there's no going back. This book certainly makes you question who is the real villain. I loved that this book gives you the perspective of all sides, the Devils as well as the Pirates and other adversaries. I've always said that most of the time, many conflicts would be fixed by a little thing called "communication." If you really think about it, you will question how necessary this war was at all. Also, expect a lot of dissension among the ranks on all sides, keeping the plot fairly unpredictable. Aside from Peter, the characters themselves aren't quite as dynamic, but I think that providing different perspectives helps make them more than one-dimensional fodder. I highly recommend this book as long as you're prepared for the rough undertones and subject matter. No, this is not the Disney adaptation. It's not Fox's either (which was my personal favorite growing up). But I like seeing this tale told. *Review also posted to Amazon
