Tom Phillips _om_hillips — Interesting book..I listened to it on CD and was thankful I did, as it takes place in teh 1600's and the speech is different than ours.

Trần Phúc tranphucdang123 — The Island is a complex thriller set in an Indian paradise. This novel is told from three viewpoints. Firstly, there is Otto. An eighteen year old boy obsessed with photography and is every part the voyeur. Secondly, there is Charlotte who has been Otto’s best friend for years. She is a very practical person and seemed much more mature than her friend. Thirdly, there is Jen. A one time a girlfriend of Otto’s, she is an ethereal character who exists partly in the real world and partly in a world of spirits, auras and psychic intuition. The Island is really a rather strange and beguiling book. At first, I thought I’d never get beyond the half way point. Otto begins to tell his story. He has arrived in Goa. He has met a British girl called Maria and he lusts after her. The opening chapters are very voyeuristic. Otto is completely self-obsessed and obnoxious. I just couldn’t like him at all and his character viewpoint is so pretentious that it alienated me. But then Maria dies in most mysterious circumstances having stood Otto up. And the story goes back in time to Charlotte’s viewpoint and tells of how she and Otto first met Jen. From there the story was much more engaging. I liked Charlotte. Her viewpoint was much more down to earth and practical. She is hugely frustrated by Otto. She has been in love with him forever but although he notices every other girl who wanders past, he doesn’t see his best friend as a potential love interest. Charlotte is incredibly patient with Otto and essentially waits for the day that he will notice her. Anyway, the three characters plan a trip to India in their gap year and this brings us to the story of Otto and the murder of Maria. The three viewpoints then tend to alternate in the telling of the story of the revellers on the beach and the identity of Maria’s murderer. The Island has a complex structure which moves between the past and the present. It is not the sort of book that you should pick up if you’re after a spot of light humour. It is the sort of book you should pick up if you really want to challenge yourself and do battle with something. You will win the battle if you stick with it. The story is exotic and I loved the location and all the cultural references. It was completely refreshing to read a novel set in India. For all my struggling with the opening, I am so glad that I persisted. Now I’ve finished The Island I’m dying to know what happens next. I want to follow Charlotte’s journey (even if it means I have to read more from Otto’s point of view). The style, the themes and the exoticism of The Island would make it a great adult crossover. An enticing and yet challenging read!

Marissa Lutz marissa_lutz — A really good book for those who are interested in the paranormal and research dealing with hauntings. You can tell there is a lot of research that went into this. I am a fan of the paranormal shows and this deals with a girl whose parents have a show. Her mom is a catholic and father an atheist. A girl by the name of Jordin wants Maia to take her to all these haunted places and be her tour guide. A lot of paranormal things happen and suddenly Jordin dissapears. Derek Jordins fiance goes with Maia to look for her. Jordin and Derek have these dreams in which all they could hear is that The Nightmare is Coming. After the dream Maia has this symbol on her neck. They find out that these people take their souls and make them into ghosts. Derek and Maia goes and finds Jordin at this office building which she is in a room with the symbols in the room. She explains she is held there under control that the symbols are controlling them and wherever the symbols are they can't do anything to get out. Derek finds a way to help Maia and Jordin out and Maia breaks one of the symbols while the entity is in the room. The entity disappears and they are al saved.

Nicolien Vd nicolienvanderplas — I think I ought to reread this. I'm not so sure that I understood at all what I was reading the first time. At any rate, I haven't a clue now what it was actually about.

James Roy _ogo_raphic — This was my all time favorite book, when I was a child and still to this day it holds a special place in my heart. I have read it countless times. It never gets old and it is one of my favorite gifts to give when going to a baby shower or a first birthday.

Daniel Zaranka _aranka — Yea, this I did not finish. Not really sure why I bought other than seeing it and remembering a recommendation from a chef at culinary school. I do not want to be a chef and have known this for awhile, the book was really just a list of all the reasons I already had for not wanting to be a chef. It also kind of makes those seeking careers in other culinary fields feel bad.
