Francesco Barbarulo francescob69a0 — Cole is a video game developer who’s bored with his life and decides the best way to rejuvenate is to go to Canada and kill something. Fortunately for Bambi, but unfortunately for Cole and the others on the trip, things don’t go as planned and the group is attacked by a huge creature that Cole can’t even begin to identify. One of the men who’d tried to stop what he called a Full Blood, but is obviously dying, asks Cole to take some kind of a knife and a message to a woman named Paige. Feeling he owes the dying man for saving his life, Cole agrees and is thrust into a world that he never dreamed existed. Once he finds Paige, who is a Skinner, someone who hunts down and kills monsters, Cole learns that, even if he goes back to his normal life, the Full Blood can, and most likely will, track him down and kill him. Also, Cole feels a responsibility to try and stop the murders that are usually deemed wild animal killings. They find that there’s more going on than just the normal occasional killing of humans and Skinners. Paige and Cole, along with the help of a man who calls himself Prophet, attempt to stop the killings before they start an all out war between supernatural beings and humans, who are blissfully unaware of what’s going on around them. I liked this book quite a bit. Cole was really freaked out at first and then slightly freaked out when something new and/or weird happened. Paige tried to get Cole up to speed and mentor him without forcing him to do something he didn't want to do; she gave Cole the option of leaving at any time without laying a guilt trip on him. They were both pretty normal people who happened to be thrust into less than normal situations but, unlike most people, they did what needed to be done in order to protect the rest of the unaware world. There was a good amount of action and I liked Cole’s personality and sense of humor. I look forward to reading Howling Legion.

Kewan Thomas kewankeconceptphotos — ** spoiler alert ** OH. MY. GOODNESS. THIS BOOK. I'M SO IN LOVE WITH IT. Before I start the actual review - for anyone out there that's heard about this book but might be reluctant to read it in case all the raving and fangirl/boy-ness is overplayed and a little on the not-worth-it-in-all-actuality side (I know how you feel, I was there at first, too!)...trust me. READ IT ANYWAY. You'll be glad you did. To quote my friend (who read this book along with me): "I don't think I've ever felt this many emotions because of one book since, like, Harry Potter. (or the Book Thief.)" I can definitely relate to this. Suzanne Collins did one hell of a job immersing you into Katniss's world and the desperation-laced, adrenaline-drenched, and the cruel, surprising twists of the arena for the Games. I laughed[not as much as other books, I admit], I cried (several times), I [mentally] screamed at the Capitol and President Snow, I became fond of Peeta, I pitied Haymitch, I cared for Prim - and Rue...!! - I panicked at the tracker-jackers, I was proud of Cinna and his beautiful work, I was annoyed by the prep team, I was disappointed in Katniss' mom, I felt pain for Gale as he was whipped, and I was as eager as the Capitol and all 12 districts to find out what Katniss would come up with next. Also, this book brought up the next big "Team _____ or Team _____??" since Twilight. Gale, or Peeta?? TEAM PEETA ALL THE WAY, PEOPLE. ALLL THE WAY. (I apologize to all you Gale fans out there, but...I just wasn't feeling it. He kind of annoyed me, to be honest. All throughout the trilogy.) In short, this book was absolutely AMAZING (a reason it made it to my "loved" shelf) and I will absolutely be reading it over. And over, and over, and over, and over... Also, as a final note...excited for the movie...not so much for the casting. Movies nowadays seriously need to get better casting directors, because, let's face it, something's gotta be wrong with a lot of them, judging by who they cast for what roles.

Peter Kaalund peterkaalund — This book is a fascinating portrayal of class division in Edwardian England. I found it completely absorbing. Forster knows how to make a simple conversation charged with meaning. From Wikipedia: The plot takes place in England at the beginning of the twentieth century. It is about three families who represent different gradations of the Edwardian middle class: the Wilcoxes, who are rich capitalists with a fortune made in the Colonies; the half-German Schlegel sisters, who represent the intellectual bourgeoisie and have a lot in common with the real-life Bloomsbury Group; and the Basts, a couple who are struggling members of the lower-middle class. The Schlegel sisters try to help the poor Basts and try to make the Wilcoxes less prejudiced. The motto of the book is "Only connect..."
