I am still trying to figure out what I thought of this book. I am not sure if I would have finished this if it had not been such a quick read. There were 290 chapters in 302 pages and lots of white space - so very quick. I have never read Don Winslow before so I don't know if this book is typical of his writing. I wish I knew more about his style because World Cat labels this book humorous fiction and I found nothing humorous in a book where there is so much blood shed. Some of the social commentary might be considered humorous, but I spent so much time being appalled that my sense of humor deserted me. This story is about a hostile takeover of a drug company. The drug company makes the best dope in California. Even the "good guys" are bad guys in this story. For me there were no sympathetic characters. I suspect that if you liked the movie Pulp Fiction (which I never saw) you might really like this book - black humor with lots of death. Since I like staying abreast of what our patrons read, this was not a total waste. But it will never make my favorites list. Since I am reading this for The Morning News Tournament of Books, I am now prepared to root for The Finkler Question during the opening round. Although I have not read The Finkler Question yet, it has a couple of things in its favor - it won the Booker and it is scheduled to go up against Savages. I want Savages out of the running as soon as possible.

In Darkness Reborn is the story of Barak, an Other, who we met in book one of the series when he saved Dr. Laurel Young’s life. Dr. Young has done her best to keep Barak safe with the backing of the leader of the Seattle Paladins, Devlin Bane... For the entire review please go to the Best Paranormal & Urban Fantasy Review site on the web, Bitten By Books, for the review of In Darkness Reborn in it's entirety. You won't be sorry.
This book started out a bit slow...not enough to make me not read it. Tessa is terminally I'll and lives out her last days carrying out her list of things to do. This book will make you laugh, cry, love, be angry and even be somewhat indifferent. Tessa and the ones she cares about truly see how love can impact us. Jenny Downham wrote this book well. She made poetry in death without getting too cliche or mundane about it. Overall good read.

I got this book just because I'm a huge fan of Tina Folsom's Scanguards series and also I enjoyed Bella Andre's other free book called Ecstasy. These are 2 short stories that give you a taste of their writing style. I love how these two authors consistently offer free books for their readers. The Venice Vampyre short story Tina Folsom contributed to this anthology has convinced me to try reading that series next!
see comment on other dave barry books... his schtick gets real old real fast, but is "my best friend's mom LOVES him" funny

This isn't the right edition. I read the book and this is an audio CD set but it's the only one I could find. SO disturbing it turned me off John Saul for awhile. Although having read it right after Suffer the Children and Nathaniel, I was getting near that point anyway.

I love Elder Holland's stories. This is a compilation of many talks he has given over the years. I loved it!

I like these books. It's a fun story and he keeps coming up with exciting adventures. Both Kayla and Morgan have read all of his books so it's fun talking to them about the stories.
Loved it! This is the first of his books I have read and I'll be looking for more. Very well written, flowed beautifully. Difficult to summarise without giving too much away. Other than to say it has an excellent twist.
