Fsafbk Khsvadjhasv hvsjhsvdfj21ca — Bleeding Violet Simon Pulse, 2010, 454 pp., $19.99 Dia Reeves ISBN 978-1-4169-8618-8 In a quiet, calm, regular suburban neighborhood, a girl waits in the night. A quick check under the doormat reveals a key that lets her into her mother’s house - the mother she’s never met. Hanna looks around at the sparse surroundings, at the colorless furniture. Her mother catches her in the kitchen, making a sandwich. And after a short conversation, she finds out about a certain problem that her newly-discovered daughter has. “Rosalee stopped pacing and looked down at me, tight-lipped. What I need is not to have to chase after a bipolar disordered kid. If she thought that name-calling would put me in my place she was sadly mistaken. I prefer manic depressive, I told her, if it’s all the same to you. It’s much more explicit, don’t you think? More honest? But really can you call me whatever you like as long as I get to stay.” So with a barely consenting consent, Hanna stays. However, as she goes to her new high school and meets the people of the town, including Wyatt, a mysterious fellow student, grapple with what seems to be live glass, she realizes that the town that she wanted so badly to become part of, might not be exactly what it seems. With its exceptional plot and wonderful first person point of view, Bleeding Violet by Dia Reeves was charmingly written. The first person point of view made me feel like I was right next to Hanna, seeing the things she saw, and sharing her experiences. The plot was creative and unique, so I didn’t feel like I was reading a book that I read before. There were many twists and turns in the story that made reading it an adventure. There was sufficient character development and the characters were realistic and portrayed honestly. Reeves let the characters take a life of their own, letting their flaws show, plus their emotions were all really authentic. The book was fast paced which made it addictive. My one complaint is at times Bleeding Violet can be graphic or disturbing, and has many gory scenes. All in all, I feel that this book lived up to its potential, and was a highly enjoyable read. One of the strengths I saw in Dia Reeves’s writing is that she uses magnificent descriptive writing and a first person point of view to really let the reader get inside Hanna’s head. This helps the story move along and be out of the ordinary. Bleeding Violet is a perfectly paced book. Some books have slowly paced sections, or the whole book moves along slowly, which can be frustrating. The only con of this book is that at times it could be a bit graphic or disturbing. I would recommend Bleeding Violet to anyone who loves fantasy or paranormal romance novels. I think this book is more geared towards girls age 14 and up who like books like the Twilight books by Stephanie Meyer. This thrilling tale of a girl, and the town that just might be the death of her, will be sure to leave you captivated. - Julia

Nessha Putri nesshaputri — I don't usually read "thrillers," so if I didn't already know and love Joanne Harris' other books I might have been discouraged by the jacket blurb. I'm glad I wasn't because it doesn't read like a thriller—it reads like a character-rich story that will just happens to keep you guessing (almost) to the end. Highly recommended.

Doctor Print _octorprint — Historical fiction is not really my thing but the descriptions of 16th century Venice were excellent. The tale is told from the point of view of a courtesan's dwarf.

Junwei Sun jwsun — My first "meeting" with Neil Davis was watching, on television, his death on the streets of Bangkok during one of those pathetic little coups that occasionally happened in that land of smiles, the camera rolling, rolling on a story that even at the last he couldn't abandon. I then met him again in Tim Bowden's excellent book. Davis did indeed live a "crowded life" and I can never hear the words of that poem without thinking of him, a person whose friend I would wish to have been.

Irene Smit _ipis — شاید بشود گفت که سرزمین روسیه پیش از آمریکای لاتین، مولد رئالیسم جادویی باشد. ابتدا باید گوگول را با داستان هایی نظیر "بینی" و "بالاپوش"، مبداء این مکتب دانست و سپس و پیش از آن که بورخس و مارکز قدم در این مکتب بگذارند، "مرشد و مارگریتا" نوشته شده است. بولگاکف که به عنوان یک نمایش نامه نویس، مشهور بود، تنها بیست و هفت سال پس از مرگش در 1940، معلوم شد چهار رمان، از جمله مرشد و مارگریتا را در سال های میان 1928 تا 1940 نوشته است، زمانی که هنوز هم همه ی آثارش اجازه ی چاپ نداشت. و مرشد و مارگریتا ابتدا در 1967 چاپ و منتشر شد. بسیاری از منتقدین این رمان را یکی از بهترین رمان های قرن بیستم می شناسند. ترجمه ی شکیل "مرشد و مارگریتا" به فارسی را مدیون عباس میلانی هستیم. هسته ی اصلی مرشد و مارگریتا، دیدار حضرت شیطان از سرزمین بی خدای شوروی ست. اولین بخش در 1930 در شهر مسکو اتفاق می افتد، و شیطان در هیات پروفسور ولاند، شعبده بازی مرموز از سرزمینی نامعلوم، با خدم و حشم وارد می شود. شخصیت های همراه پروفسور ولاند (شیطان)، همه تمثیلی از شخصیت های کتاب مقدس اند؛ عزازیل، با نگاهی مرگ آور، عجوزه ای به نام هلا و... بخش دوم رمان در اورشلیم و در زمان پونتیوس پیلات، در محاکمه ی "یهوا هانوتسری" (عیسای ناصری) می گذرد. در این بخش است که شخصیت مارگریتا، معشوقه ی "مرشد"، به رقص با شیطان دعوت می شود. او که از روی جنگل عمیق پرواز کرده، و در رودخانه ی مسکو حمام گرفته، بهمراه عزازیل، به مجلس رقص شیطان می رود. شیطان (ولاند جادوگر) حاضر است در مقابل روح مارگریتا، دو خواهش او را بجا آورد. و سپس عزازیل، مرشد و مارگریتای مرده را دوباره بر می خیزاند؛ رستاخیز مردگان، همچون خود عزازیل. آنها تمدن را همراه شیطان ترک می کنند، هم چنان که مسکو در آتش می سوزد. مرشد و مارگریتا محکوم اند که تا ابد در سایه بمانند (شبیه برزخ دانته) دست نایافته به شکوه بهشت، و ناسزاوار عذاب جهنم. آنها همراه پیلات به جاودانگی خاموش، محکوم اند.

Joaquim Oliveira _oaquimde_liveira — I picked up this audio book because it won the 2008 Audie award for Thriller/Mystery. When I looked into the author (I had never heard of Joe Hill before), I learned that he was the son of Stephen King. That set my expectations high. Hill had a novel idea--buying a ghost over the internet--but I didn't feel any positive emotions for the main characters or find the plot particularly engaging. There were elements that were interesting but overall I found it a bit disappointing because I just didn't care enough about how it might turn out. I thought my teenagers would enjoy listening to it on a road trip, but it just put them to sleep (twice!).

Wu Jianxing huhooya — Well written, page-turning fantasy with a little romance thrown in. Inventive...can't wait to read the next in the series.

Aleksey Mas _lexey_as — read immediately following the choice and i liked this one as well. again, a daily dose of reality, a little more mystery than his others, but NOT a mystery novel, maybe malicious intent sounds better? but it was good.
