I am going to have to sadly admit that this series is not my cup of tea. I tried to like Unearthly after reading all the rave reviews but found it only okay, it didn't blow my mind like I was so sure it would. Hallowed was even less appealing to me, I read three chapters and even that was a struggle - but now I do think I'm starting to see why. I think if I happened to meet Clara in real life, let's just say she enrolled at my university, we would be friendly to one another, perhaps mumble a polite greeting when we passed in the corridor but I don't think we would ever be close friends. We have so little in common. Clara is, in many ways, the girl I have never been... nor really wish to be either (though, I would like to be able to fly). (1) Clara is the kind of girl who will have relationships filled with sweet romance, hand-holding and utter tameness. I appreciate that this is a young adult novel and I didn't exactly expect graphic sex scenes - or, in fact, any sex at all - but "Tucker still has this notion that since I have angel blood in my veins he should try to keep my honor in tact" is practically Victorian repression. (2) Clara cannot even admit to herself that she has the hots for Christian as well as Tucker. She dreams, daydreams and thinks an awful lot about the guy but "no, no, Tucker is my future". Who is she kidding? It's not like every reader doesn't know already that there's a whole love triangle thing going on... so why is our heroine being stupid? (3) I read three chapters. In these chapters, apart from a quick recap of what happened in the first book, we spend all the time in the middle of Clara's daydreams of marriage and babies. Or experiencing kissing Tucker through Clara's mind, which is naturally out of this world, sensational, practically orgasm-inducing... or seeing visions of Christian, which is just bad, bad, bad. (4) And why oh why did this book get so biblical? Three chapters, I must remind you, and I don't know how many times I heard about god and the bible. Look, my religious beliefs aside, everyone is fully entitled to believe what the hell they want - but that doesn't mean I want to hear it about it in chapter two. And a lot. I could read the rest of the story but I can tell we are not destined to love one another. And that's okay, right now I have so many other things to read. To anyone who is put off by my lack of chemistry with this book, navigate towards Wendy's or Tatiana's review to see how it worked out for people who "got" Clara more than I did.

Beautiful story, a wonderful lack of stereotypes afflicting the many female characters and best of all, it took me over a week to read it. I felt spoiled. I almost resent the next book I've picked up, because it can't help but disappoint in comparison. Next book in series is on the way, but it's going to be a while! It's apparently very popular. (Changed it from four to five stars, because I'm one of those stingy people who never give five stars out of the gate; I have to sit and wait and see how I feel about the experience later. And this is definitely a five star story.)

I give it a marginal 5 stars, mostly for all the use I've gotten out of it. The organization of the book is not the best, for example it would be nice if other keywords and reserved symbols (like, say, "while" or "{") were covered in detail in an easy to find ordered reference section, as the functions are. But it's still the best Perl reference out there.

"A Perfect Day for Bananafish" - best short story ever.

I found this book impossible to put down. Great bit of history about conditions around the turn of the century... Still pretty relavent today. Turns out that Sinclair isn't the biggest fan of capitalism. If you're down with that, you'll probably love this book.

I really wish that Stephanie Meyer had finished "Midnight Sun." It is the perfect compliment to "Twilight." In some cases, if an author was to write the same book from another character's perspective, it would just be annoyingly redundant. However, this is really not the case with "Midnight Sun." I found the insight that Edward is allowed into the human thoughts around him to be perfectly presented. Meyer truly portrayed the notion of people not knowing what others are really thinking, and that in most cases it is more selfish and hurtful then one would assume. Great portion of a book, and it is a true shame that it was not finished :(

Would my booklist really be complete without Foucault? :-)

A tale of three parts full of philosophical and moral ideas to challenge the Christian mind. I really enjoyed the discourse that this book took about a wide-range of issues. Although sometimes reading like a university text-book, it was worth perceivering with for the pure inventiveness and originality. I think that this story could possibly have been told over three individual books, since the sections were so different in style. In places the descriptions were unecessary to the plot, in others I would have liked to know more of the character's feelings. Having said that, I did truly feel for the main character. I'm glad that I got a chance to read this book annd am hoping to get a chance to read the sequel sometime in the future.
