I'm not the biggest Calpernia Addams booster, but now I respect how hard she's worked to transcend her circumstances. Mark 947 chronicles her hellish childhood and eventual blossoming into a woman, but it features a somewhat novel approach to its storytelling. Her surprisingly evocative, deeply intimate style drew me into her inner world such that I recognized a lot of her demons in myself. It's a pretty affecting portrait of a person learning to love themselves, and the detail and clarity with which she chronicles a lifetime of emotions speaks well for how much she's grown. Don't bother with this book if you're looking for a conventional bio. Lots of time is unaccounted for and there's surprisingly little info on the nitty-gritty of her life, the trial of her lover's killers, the physical aspects of her transition, etc. But it works pretty well as a story of awakening, of a person struggling to identify the contours of her soul and figuring out how to be true to her nature. Any rebel, gender or otherwise, should be able to appreciate that. The title, by the way, is a reference to a bible verse: http://bible.cc/mark/9-47.htm

Wonderful story of a Latino boy living in a traditional home in modern times. Ultima is a mystical woman whose spirit is tied to nature (owl). Antonio learns about life and God while trying to understand religion. love, life, hate and fear. Amazing story! This book is also a semi-American classic. Everyone should read.

Yet another Malcom Gladwell book that disappoints. This book discusses, (rather laboriously in my opinion), the value of split-second judgments. To be honest, I've gotten through about 50 pages and am giving up because I find it tedious and rather un-inspiring.

Holy crap. I did not think I would like this book all that much, but I LOVED it! I could not put it down for anything! However, this was almost exactly like the movie Keith... *Spoilers* Okay, so, how this is just like Keith: The main female character is the popular blonde yet goody-good. She has a boyfriend (although in Keith she is dating a Latino guy first haha). She and Keith, like Brittany and Alex, are assigned as Chemistry partners. Both Alex and Keith are rebellious, the difference is Alex is a gangbanger and Keith has cancer. Towards the end of both, the couples "make love", and Keith, just like Alex, ends up telling her it meant nothing to him, etc. Despite being alarmingly alike, both stories are unique in their way and are both tearjerkers (I probably cried more for Keith though, since at least Alex and Brittany got a happy ending.) I thought the cussing in every sentence in this book was VERY unnecessary, but all-in-all it was great and I would thoroughly recommend it to fans of teen romance. Alex is smoking hott!

It's a pretty good beginning of a story. I like the art used in this manga and the authors previous work "Back Stage Prince". Can't wait till the next vol. comes out Nov.

Secrets of what happened in the woods the night of a hurricane in 1979 come back to haunt four adults when they reunite after all these years for the death of one of their friends. Needless to say, this was a very sad, dark, depressing, mystery. The author told the story from the perspectives of many characters in the first narrative switching between past and present. Doing so actually gave a lot of insight into nature of each person and made for a rich, deeper story. You learn so much about their lives and how each of them viewed the same situations and people differently. It seemed like they knew the truth about each other and the real person they were when they didin't know the same themselves. The group of five kids that used to play together in the woods were three brothers (Sean, Tim, and Go-Go in chronological age) and two girls that were best friends (Gwen and Mickey). Gwen is the pretty girl with a father who is a doctor and a stay at home mother. The boys's father jumps from job to job because of his hot temper and their mother tries to keep up the house with no help. Sean is the cautious one, Tim is jealous of Sean, and Go-Go is weak and fragile. Mickey doesn't have as much money as the others and she doesn't have a stable family life. Her mother's boyfriend acts as her step-father so she has a lot of anger and resentment. A lot of this attitude is what leads the group to seek adventure in the woods which becomes the root of their secrets. The thing I like most about this book was learning how people really see and feel about each other. How one best friend sees and really feels about the other. How a wife sees and really feels about her husband. How parents really see and feel about their kids. It is scary how much people keep their real feelings hidden. To me, those were the most interesting secrets. Even though the book was leading up to the reveal of the big secrets, these secrets were interwoven all throughout the story. And in the end, you are supposed to believe that some secrets should stay that way because they will only hurt others and that revealing them only absolves you. The author said in the afterword that this was a very personal book for her and her most autobiographical. I wonder if this is her way of revealing her own secrets so they won't hurt others but will absolve her.

Pike has a skill for coming up with the most interesting of premises, and his books were not just pedestrian teen horror books (which is where I'd place R.L. Stine, no offense meant - I read those books too). This book had an interesting premise about teenagers living in a hospice, and Pike shows off his ability to psychologically frightening.
