Where is the number one place for finding severed heads? What makes pressed jeans SO creepy? And where can I get homemade waffles right now? These are just a few of the many fun questions that rolled around in my head and made me laugh while reading Lish McBride’s Hold Me Closer, Necromancer. For me, the star of this show is the playful attitude and tone of the tale. The characters find themselves in some painfully awkward conversations and dangerous situations, but they always seem to come up with a smart-alecky, whip-smart comment or response. The story moved along and possessed a quick, sarcastic, fun, laid back feel and pace that made every page, adventure, interaction, and fall out of bed hilarious! The humor slowly eases the reader into this world of darkness, filled with creatures and magic. A world Sam has a connection with in his past and within himself. Our hero, Samhain LaCroix, is struggling to find his place in this world and a big missing piece of his life just fell into place. Sam along with his friends and family find themselves in a whole new world filled with all new kinds of dangers. Troubles even more terrifying than a life as a bitter fast food warrior fighting to survive the lunch rush with his soul intact! It’s a good thing Sam has his friends for support and to issue a good slap upside his head! Even with all the sarcasm and smart-ass comments, the love and warmth all the characters feel for each other jumps off the page. I truly adored every character and how their love, loyalty, and pride shined through in every situation. Sam, Ramon, Frank, Brooke, Brid, Haley, the Moms, and so many more were the back bone of this book for me. I just knew and felt they all had each other’s backs! A small to “could-develop-into-a-huge” crush has begun to burn for Sean! Hehe….He made me giggle and he wasn’t even in there all that much! Can’t wait for more scene stealing from that guy! :D One of my favorite aspects of horror and fantasy is the “yes-we-have-been-right-here-in-front-of-your-face” angle. This tale does a beautiful job of creating a matter-of-fact vibe about the whole monster world with leaders, councils, bitter rivalries and even paperwork under the surface of everyday society. Sam is so “yeah-so-what” about the whole hanging out with werewolves, fairies, seers, and the undead. It makes me giggle. It notches up the pay attention to your surroundings to a whole new level. I so want to gossip about some of my favorite parts, but I feel like even explaining the setting will spoil some of the fun. Readers should just dive in and discover the giggles all on their own! Raising and communicating with the dead is not all fun and games though. Several strong messages of loyalty, finding your way, and facing your past run deep through these pages. As we all know, history always has a way of catching up, repeating herself, or just plain beating the sense out of us eventually if it is not dealt with. Sam must find his past before he can fight for his future. My only disappointment with the book was the big confrontation. I felt like it lacked bite! Come on! That’s all you got for me? The scene and Douglas himself felt a little reigned in at times, but that could just be my bloodlust calling out. Next time—I hope Ms. McBride knows her readers can take it. Bring it on! Have fun with Necromancer and all the gang! I cannot wait for more! **Two very important side notes** I LOVED the shout out to Calvin & Hobbes! I am so happy I am not the only one missing those two. *sigh* The comics were never the same after they left. The severed head question….my guess for the number one spot and where I would hide one is the microwave! Hehe :D It’s not just for popcorn anymore!

The Perfect Storm by Sebastian Junger tells the shipwreck story of the swordfishing boat the Andrea Gail in the extraordinary weather event dubbed “the perfect storm,” the kind that only happens once in a century, by the National Weather Service. The Andrea Gail was never found, but the stories of the men and women who went into that storm, those who survived it, and those who rescued others are vividly detailed and suspenseful.

I was pleasantly surprised with "Blood and Chocolate"! I thought it was well written and I was able to relate and empathize with the main character, Vivian, although she is a teenaged werewolf and I am a 32 yr. old wife and mother. I also appreciate this book managed to describe certain physical/sexual situations and feelings in a mild way, therefore it was not inappropriate or too graphic to share with my pre-teen.

I was handed this book by a librarian when I asked her for a recommendation. I said I preferred stories with female protagonists and also liked science fiction and fantasy. It is not what I expected! I don't really know what I expected... but it wasn't werewolves and vampires. I've avoided Twilight like the plague, but perhaps I looked like I was in that demographic? It's a collection of nine short stories (or longer short stories). Many of the authors, the librarian told me, have whole novels and usually series, so this is a good way to find out if I like any of their writing without committing to a whole book. Not a bad plan, really. The first story is good, even if it is a bit explicit in a roundabout way. (Not really expecting that either!) I enjoyed the characters very much, I thought they were compelling and I would like to read more about them, except I don't think they're main characters in any of the author's other books. (And I liked the witch better than the werewolf, anyway, and it seems her other books are mostly about werewolves.) Most of the other stories I also enjoyed. I forget which one or two I didn't care for, but it's okay. I'm not running out to get any full novels by any of these authors, but I may someday.

Really cute book. Some people might find it unrealistic, but once you pass that stage, it is cute and feels good. Just a nice easy read.
Good, except for the deus ex machina at the climax.
errr.. agak susah ngikutin buku ini... kenapa, ya? karena ini karya klasik atau karena si Tom ini bengal banget? sempet ngerasa capek dan tegang aja pas baca ini..., mungkin karena kondisi pas baca aja lagi ga enak bodi... cuma yah, kalo buat anak-anak di bawah umur 12 taun sih... ini buku ga direkomendasiin menurutku mah... banyak banget kelakuan Tom yang bisa ditiru soalnya... heuw heuw...

This book is indeed well written and interesting but pales in comparison to the first one. In ways, it's a bit slutty, and it's amazing to me that I read this when I was a blossoming teenager. The hell was my problem...
