I have had this book for a while - bought it right when it came out, but then I was apprehensive about reading it due to the abuse that Skye suffers. I'm happy to say that while the terrible effects of the abuse are readily apparent in Skye's behavior and body, the abuse happens off page and we are not beaten over the head with it. I really enjoyed how the author took time with the story and relationship between the three men. This is not something that they "jumped into" because of only physical attraction. The strong connection between Skye and Dru was something that they built on from their childhood friendship. Thom's insecurities were very well written too and explained and believable given how he had come to understand his own sexuality. The thing that struck me the most was that all the characters worked on being honest with the others. They all grew into realizing that this relationship was more than friendship and each processed that differently and in their own time. I also liked Kara a great deal. She was a very good friend to all parties and I was sorry to see her leave. Maybe she'll make a guest appearance in the next book. The one character that I felt we didn't get to know was Oscar. I hope in the next book we get to know him a bit better because I have to say my reaction to him was mixed. It's hard to write a good and believable menage with three men. The other series that I have read that does it really well is the Dark Horse series by Kate Sherwood. I really look forward to reading more about these three and how they move forward.

"Shimmer" is about a teenage girl who is about sixteen years old named Emma, and two boys her age named Justin and Russ. It switches viewpoint from character to character throughout the story, which each one having different thoughts and perspective. One day Justin decides to throw a wild party late at night, and during that time a mysterious box that his dad's workers had found deep in a mountain cave is opened. The story follows the events that follow. This book is deeply disturbing at some points, and just plain strange at others. Before the reference was even made, it screamed "Pandora's Box". While the horror part of the book was strongly written, some of the other elements were lacking. For instance, I felt that the author had some trouble developing the characters and deciding what to do with each of them. This is because towards the end of the book he wrote out characters that seemed super important at the beggining, and made some support characters develop almost randomly into main charcaters. The story also felt awkwardly rushed, and there was no point the book that just clicked and made me go," Ooooh". However, if you are a horror fan then this is the book for you.

Generally, noir plots are not particularly believable, so the noir writer must be skillful enough either to make you believe in spite of it all or to make you not care whether you believe in the first place. (Jim Thompson specializes in the former; Cornell Woolrich specializes in the latter.) This time, Bruno Fischer did not quite succeed in making me believe. Fools Walk In is an example of transgressive noir, the subgenre in which the protagonist, presumably someone not much different from the reader, crosses over to the noir side. Usually the protagonist is driven by financial temptation, but in Fools Walk In, Larry Knight is motivated by the simple desire to escape his miserably unexciting life. When the novel begins, Larry is driving home to New York from Kentucky, where he has been visiting his brother, George. Larry lives with his sister--a shrill, self-pitying, dominating old maid--and he had hoped to convince George to take her. Of course, he had so no such luck. Add to this the fact that Larry is toiling in the world's most pathetic job--he's a high school English teacher, for God's sake!--and he is ripe to transgress when he picks up a gangster's moll who is on the run with $20,000. Larry soon finds himself in hiding with gangsters of the sort who talk earnestly about "capers," and, for a high school English teacher, he proves to be unaccountably attractive to gangster women. If only all English teachers had such latent powers!

Some good information.

David Sedaris is hysterical and a fantastic story-teller. Not all of his stories are the best, but this book is a great compilation. You'll defnitely laugh out loud. Anyone from NC will appreciate his references to growing up in Raleigh, working at Crabtree Mall and taking family trips to the beach.

I liked this book, mostly because it was set in Northampton, MA and I know the area very well.

I'm ashamed to admit just how much I liked this book. It's not incredibly well-written or illuminating, but Liz Gilbert's style is honest, self-deprecating, and accessible. As someone who suffers from wanderlust and a need for constant self-reflection, I was engrossed (and empathetic).

A good story, but the author died before it was finished, so there is NO ENDING! Very frustrating!

Wasn't sure if I was going to like it as much as Love That Dog, but I did. It was just enough new information. Another wonderful quick read from Sharon Creech.

I'm still deciding about this book. Love the pictures. And I think that I could really like the words ... if only I could get a sense of what they mean. Hopefully I will rate this book higher after my next reread.
