Joann Schwarberg jschwarberg — This review was written for The Review Diaries: http://reviewdiaries.blogspot.com/201... Um, how has no one pointed me in the direction of Jennifer Lynn Barnes before? This woman is GENIUS. Yes, she deserves the capitals. This book completely blindsided me – I stumbled across it completely randomly and was hooked from the first page. The writing is excellent, the humour fantastic and I frequently embarrassed myself in public by laughing out loud at the sheer brilliance of some of the one liners. The plot is a fantastic spin on Jekyll and Hyde, and was so fresh and original that I was practically jumping for joy throughout. However, about three quarters of the way through there’s a twist that suddenly brought it back into the realms of usual young adult plots, and I was a little bit disappointed. However, that slight set back didn’t ruin the overall enjoyment of the book, and I think it was more the shock of suddenly plunging back into something I thought this book avoided than it being bad exactly. I want to go back and have a re-read because I think being prepared for it will make it less of a jolt. If that made any sense… Kali is a fabulous heroine, strong, independent, and with a brilliant sense of humour, and the cast of characters that accompany her are equally well constructed. It’s rare to find a book where every female character is so awesome. I would quite happily read the Skylar story, or the Bethany story, as much as I enjoyed reading the Kali story. In fact my only real complaint would be that I wanted more. Whilst I can do a lot of jumping up and down and squeeing and waving this book at you and demanding that this has to be your final read of the year, I can’t really say more without spoiling it. And there’s so much I want to talk about regarding it that I’m going to do a full review once the book has been released on the 27th December 2011. If you like Cassandra Clare, Holly Black or Sarah Rees Brennan, this is a must have read. Brilliant plot, fantastic world building and snarky strong females galore, this is going to be one of my reads of the year.

Camila Pirela camipi — This is my second read through of this book. When I happened upon it originally, I went straight out and bought the second book, as is usually my habit. But I didn't read it until I had the third, because I'd already learned my lesson once before to never throw myself into a series unless I knew it was finished. Lucky thing I waited, because the third and final book took 8 years to arrive. So, I'm re-reading the first, and it's testimony to how good this is that I only took about 6 days to do it. Intricate and almost science fictiony in its world-building, The Chosen is basically your dramatic coming of age story, set in a complex, barbaric fantasy world where men who are like angels rule over and enslave all others through a combination of wealth, terror and tradition. Pinto's writing is lyrical, his his vision vaguely unsettling. He's a little like George Martin on the bad drugs - amazing and frightening and brilliant. The first book ends on a massive cliffhanger, and I'm not sure if the focus is going to switch from the Machiavellian politics of the Masters to the budding same-sex romance between the main character of the first book and what is likely to be a major character of the second, but either way, considering the cliffhanger ending, you might want to have book 2 immediately at hand.

Victor Elias _ictor_lias — Not my favorite, but I do give Jane Eyre a lot of credit for being so forward-thinking. It's not too common to see a female character from that era that is so empowered and progressive.

Gustavo Paula _ustavo_aula — Fabulous breakdown of the colusion of the U.S. government, corporations and multinational organizations (World Bank, IMF) from a time when they were developing their techniques.
