This is book 2 of the 666 Park Avenue series, with a similar glittery book jacket design but a not as dazzling plot line. The climax doesn’t arrive until about the last 50 pages of the book, and even though it is very exciting and unexpected, it doesn’t really make up for the previous sluggish 250 pages. Plus the ending is a total cliff-hanger, so that’s a little annoying that I’ll probably have to wait another year or so to figure out what happens next. I can wait though. It’s definitely no Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, even though there are allusions to that thrilling mystery of mysteries in this book (our protagonist Jane Boyle finds herself in a precarious situation in which she must find a long-lost female relative for someone—or else die—just as Blomkvist did for Mr. Vanger). The Dark Glamour opens with Jane on the run after deciding to part ways with her new husband Malcolm Doran, each of them hoping that separately they’ll be less likely to draw attention from the media and all the bad guys and witches who are hunting them. Malcolm never makes an appearance in this book and what really bothered and confused me the whole time I was reading it is that Jane (or the author) just can’t seem to figure out how she feels about Malcolm. To fill you in from book 1 (and here comes a spoiler if you haven’t already read it), Malcolm killed Jane’s grandmother so that his mother, Jane’s evil mother-in-law and nemesis Lynne, could find Jane and steal her magic. So that’s a pretty hate-worthy action, especially since Jane’s grandmother was her last living relative, so you’d think she’d want him dead, right? But since he’s oh-so-dreamy and “magic calls to magic,” she ends up kind of forgiving him at the end of book 1. But then in this book she alternates between being mad at him/wishing him dead and wistfully longing for him to be at her side. Then, the second another tall, dark, and handsome witch-related (therefore with magical blood) dude shows up, Jane’s panties are flying off without so much as a second thought about Malcolm. Maybe it’s just me, but I figured she would at least pause for a second (before or after the dirty deed) to think about her husband while she was repeatedly committing adultery. But no, Malcolm is completely forgotten. And then Jane has the nerve to get jealous when Harris (another guy with magical blood she’s crushing on) starts going out with her roommate Dee. So maybe Jane’s just kind of a ho-bag. Anyway, sorry to get off track. I just didn’t like book 2 as much as I did book 1. Jane is even more ditzy and dim-witted in this book than she was in the first one, and that makes the story drag even more. Hopefully in book 3 she’ll get her shiz together and be the more powerful, confident witch and protagonist that she should be (and it does look like she’s on her way to becoming that, from the way book 2 ended). There’s a witch war coming in book 3 so she’ll definitely have to be at the top of her game. 2.5 stars

Chú Ngựa Hoang Dã Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Horacio Quiroga

I read this book because there were some really strong reviews for it. I got 150 pages in and still couldn't figure out if this was an extremely well written book about a narrator/main character that is completely overdramatic and vapid, or if this was just bad writing. I'm more inclined to think the latter. The ultimate problem is not enough time elapses for the reader to feel that the situation has earned the reaction Erick gives to it. People who have never been a gay teen, or known one, will likely think this is a good novel. I was, and I've known more than one, so I'm abandoning this one and moving on.

I enjoyed Franz Wisner's first book, Honeymoon with my Brother so much, I probably would have grabbed his next no matter the topic. Glad I did, if anything, he's outdone himself. How The World Makes Love is an exploration of dating and romance around the world, at the same time keeping an eye on how it relates to us personally. Having fun while thinking deeply, maintaining a sense of humor while searching for answers: my kind of non-fiction.

Giúp Bé Tập Tô Và Tập Viết - Quyển 1 Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

I believe the book is below average. The author was trying to imitate similar dystopian novels from other westerns writers but it ended up with an exaggerated and far from realistic account on events that could happen based on the current circumstances that made him write the book.

Chicken Soup For The Soul 26 - Ký Ức Biển (2010) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

I enjoyed the book for three reasons: 1) I'm an ethnologist who likes anything to do with Native North America (as long as it is tasteful); 2) I have family members who are or were members of the Navajo Hot Shot Crew (very cool!)and 3) I'm Native American. With that said I found Ault's description of the Tanoan Pueblo very interesting. For those of you who don't know, she made this pueblo up and she creates their culture from a variety of different native groups. I thought this was extremely cool, because she shows how cultural sensitive she is. Most Pueblos do not share their religion with anyone outside of their communities. I gave this book 4 stars because I enjoyed Ault's creation of the Tanoan Pueblo, however, the storyline was predictible. I figured out who the culprit was way before the ending.
