I absolutely love this book. I have read it so many times, and every time I get something else out of it. It's an amazing commentary on life, on what life could be, and it just blows my mind, I really can't think of a more eloquent way of putting it.

I listened to this on CD a few months ago. It was the best book I read all year! The women who narrated were fantastic, very believable. Went to see the movie yesterday. It was good too. Not as good as the book but still very entertaining and got the message of racism in the 60's across.

A really fun read and a lot better than I expected it to be. Lots of great dialog and humor.

** spoiler alert ** 5 starts for the first half, 3 stars for the second half. It was like two different books in one. I was on the edge of my seat for the first half of the book. Once Alex arrived in Rule, things took a turn for the boring. Not only that, she did a bit of a 180 personality-wise. I liked the strong-willed Alex in the first half of the book better. I still can't believe she didn't bust out of there to go find Tom and Ellie. I expect there will be resolution there later. I will admit that I hadn't guessed the ending, but it does make sense. I hope we will find out what actually happened to the world (rather than speculation from various folks) in the next books.

I didn't know my good friend Courtney was reading this! I've read it so many times, and have a pretty old copy with print illustrations.

This far into the series, it's kind of like a Sookie Stackhouse Situation - I'm going to trademark that! - with these books: in that we all know, pretty generally, what is going to happen in the book: Claire and her friends will face some impossible danger, Claire will uncover new and unsettling revelations about Morganville/her friends/the vampires/etc., and in the end, everything will work out with some teenage humor and group can-do. This might sound snide but it's really not completely: I truly enjoy these novels. I just enjoy them for what they are: brain candy. Just something fun and easy to read when looking for entertainment and hot broody teenage males (heellllooooo Shane!) This is a series that's long-running but hardly takes a lot of time to read through. While this fifth novel actually does manage to shakeup the Morganville formula a bit and is rather less predictable (thank you, Mr. Bishop/feudal warfare tactics of vampires), I found it to be a lot of flash and little action. This is certainly more of a plot-driven episode in the lives of our heroes than before. There is a frenetic, almost frenzied even, pace and feel to the novel - appropriate since technically Morganville is in the throes of a civil war during these events. More information about the city and vamps themselves are rolled out, such as Amelie's relative age (she causally mentions being around for the Great Fire - aka Rome in 64 AD!), and details about the alluring but dangerous vampire genius Myrnin. Furthermore, Myrnin, Sam, Michael and Amelie continue to be the only humane vampires in the town, especially with a rather rabid antagonist named Ysandre to pick up any slack that the villainous Mr. Bishop missed. To finish this review, just click right here.

Phenomenal book!

Erica Jong..can't add much more that is different from what other reviewers have said. I wish we could get away from saying "hooking up" and instead use the term "zipless f**k". It does up the neurotic ante, her narrator.

This has to be one of the best examples of a good Meg Cabot book—the characters are fun and believable, the writing’s good, the plot’s believable (if a little bit exaggerated), and it’s just so much fun to read. The shining point of Teen Idol is Jen—she’s down-to-earth and feels like a normal ordinary girl. She doesn’t obsess over her body image or complain that she’s too plain and doesn’t have any friends, she’s just Jen. Which is why I love her; Jen feels like a normal girl who could actually be everyone’s best friend. She’s also fairly no-nonsense; once she starts shaking things up in her school, she will not take no for an answer. Luke Striker is an interesting MacGuffin character. He’s presented as just a Hollywood star who’s just goofing around for a little, but you really get the sense that he wants to try out the high school thing. I’m not sure how well his disguise would have worked over the long-term (which obviously doesn’t happen for plot purposes). I do like his rapport with Jen, and I really like the fact that he’s uninterested in her as a love interest. Going on that, I like Scott, and I can see his attraction to Jen. It’s on Jen’s side that it kinda comes off as a little random. There’s a slow realization that she’s in love with Scott, but when she says that “I’ve never had a boyfriend because I’ve been waiting for you!” is a little out-of-character from her practical attitude. (I do like that Scott thinks he has absolutely no chance against Luke, and Jen is basically yelling, “I. DON’T. LIKE HIM. THAT WAY.” the whole time.) The side characters are also pretty good, although they’re not perfect. I’m very drawn to Cara (if only because I could relate to her situation), but I would have liked to see more done with her aside from “Makeovers make EVERYTHING better!” She seems like an interesting character, but there’s not much aside from crying in the bathroom every few pages. It was the same thing with Trina, there wasn’t really much to her aside from the star-struck best friend. Geri Lynn, though, was probably my favorite, if only because she wasn’t painted as a harpy ex-girlfriend. There’s really not much plot to this, and it comes off as more of a character-driven book. But it’s so much fun to read that the thin-plot and the pacing don’t bother me as much. It’s a fluffy happy read that I adore.

Any book by Catton is worth reading and this was a fascinating look at the rise to prominance of U.S. Grant. This was a pleasure to read because of the style as well as the content. Catton describes the major actions which caused people to initially notice Grant. Not a hagiography, Catton explores Grant's weaknesses, as well.
