Zoltan Totik digitsdestroy — Well, y'know, it was a murder mystery. The main character almost got offed herself, after being a suspect. Kind of how murder mystery plot twists go. The main character was one of those people that confused me; I couldn't decide if I wanted to be her or if I hated her. I like the whole though-girl thing, but why does "tough" mean "slutty" so often? Lynch wasn't exactly a slut, but she was slutty, for sure. In the same vein, why does "tough" usually equal "bitchy"? And why is it that when girls are tough, it's a defense mechanism? Can't a lady be tough because that's how she is? While I'm definitely not a tough female, I'd like to be, but I don't want to sleep around or be a total bitch-ass to all my friends. I just kind of want to give off the "don't mess with me". . . thing. Whatever you call it. But all these authors keep typing tough girls as slutty and bitchy, too. In which case, no, I don't want to be tough. (Apologies for my rant.) Despite the clichéd-but-how-do-you-get-around-them murder-mystery-twists and the love-hate relationship I had with our main character, it was a tolerable murder mystery. I read it in less than a week, mostly on the train and at school. I might have checked this out of the library on my own, but I probably wouldn't ever have paid money for it. I may not actively try to pawn it off on anyone, but I won't worry about getting it back if I loan it to a friend.

Gabriela Marques gabrielamarques — Following close on the heels of my embarrassing review about how much I love the novelization of Hook comes an embarrassing review about how much I love the novelization of Willow. Now, some of you might have some objections. "But Monica," you might say, "Willow was a terrible book! It was cumbersome and predictable! It blatantly drew on elements of every other fantasy novel ever written! Character names were laughable, plot development was almost nonexistent, and the brownies Franjean and Rool were topping the list of most annoying sidekicks ever, until Jar Jar Binks came along! And my God, what about the photos from the movie? They’re cropped so badly it looks like they may have actually been done by an untrained chimpanzee!" Which are all valid points, which is why I will not be offended but will instead calmly pull out my wand, chant Tuatha luminockt tuatha! and turn you into a gopher. Because seriously, Willow is not about good writing, or brilliant new plots. It’s about a farmer who mostly just tries to be a good father, who has to go off to the middle of God knows where trying to save someone he has no real duty towards, because dammit, it’s the right thing to do. And his daughter might have magical powers, and his best friend really isn’t cut out for adventure, and he can’t trust anyone (especially that tall dude who occasionally dresses like a woman), and he keeps being screamed at by an angry opossum. So sure, it’s a little bit The Hobbit and it’s a little bit Miscellaneous Sword and Sorcery Novel, but I loved it when I was ten and so far that love has not abated.
