This is the final book in the Princes trilogy by Hoyt. I loved both The Raven Prince and The Leopard Prince and was expecting the same with this one. Unfortunately, I didn't enjoy it half as much. This is as much a love story as a story of revenge. The hero, Simon, has inherrited the title of Viscount after the death of his brother in a duel. A duel he was forced to make by four men who stood to gain money after his death. So Simon found out who those men were and challenged them in duels in order to avenge his brother's murder. The story starts after Simon has already killed the first two men and has two more left. One of the men arranges for Simon to be hit and left in an empty countryside road to freeze to death. Fortunately for Simon, a yound woman returning home finds him and has him carried to her house to recuperate. They find themselves attracted to each other but Simon believes he has to fullfil his mission befores he gets involved with her. He leaves for London but soon returns for her since she won't leave his mind. But while he brings her back to London with him, he stills goes out, seeking his remaining victims every night. Lucy learns at some point about the men he killed and those he still seeks out and has to make a decision; should she stay with him or is he beyond salvation? I'm usually very supportive of a hero's revenge cause, but in this one it was just too much. Simon is obsessed with his cause and it frankly takes up most of the story, leaving little space for the romance to develop. Lucy, who was extremely attracted to Simon from start, has an unrealistically huge trouble realising that she loves him: it doesn't happen until 70-80 pages before the end! And as for the last duel, well I think Simon just took it too far. To me, he was so deeply hurt and damaged by all this revenge thing, that I cannot believe he would ever be able to forget and live his life happily after all. Even the fairy tale about The Serpent Prince did not have a 100% satisfactory ending. If there was an epilogue, to explain what happens to Pocket as she grows up, and how Simon turned out to be a happy man after all, I would perhaps rate it with 3 stars. Unfortunately, I was left with the feeling that their future lies rather bleak ahead, and that's not the way I want my romances to end.

After introducing Aaron to Tombstone last weekend, it was time for a re-read of Territory. I adored it just as much on second reading. Old West shenanigans, with magic? This book was basically written for me!

I enjoyed this story, but I did not understand the hype & acclaim lavished upon the book. Yes, it is enjoyable, but there are some decidedly goofy aspects to the story, and not necessarily good goofy, but clunky goofy. A good, though not great, book, in my ever so humble opinion.

I had a hard time getting into Buddha but once I did it was a fascinating story. It follows what is known of the life of the Buddha. It can be dry at time but all in all an enlightening read.

You know, the writing here wasn't all that great, but I enjoyed it quite a bit. It had been too long since Star Trek had been on the screen and I enjoyed the first movie immensly even if it was a light retelling of one of the TV Episodes. Roddenberry captured something of the passion of the basic Star Trek Universe, though, in his words.

This book would have gotten 5 stars from me if it weren't for all of the heterosexism in it. I found many sections angry (rightfully so) about the lack of inclusion of race and class issues in feminism. But, then hooks goes on to explain that queers need to be patient for feminists to get it and quit being homophobic, says a bunch of stuff that shows no knowledge of queer issues, and even says some downright offensive stuff. BUT, this was written in a different time. That doesn't excuse it. But I like to hope things have changed. The perspective this book gives on race, class, feminism, etc is amazing- even though I don't agree with all of her points. Everyone should read this, but brace yourselves for the times she mentions the queers. You'll be disappointed.

Bu e-posta romanında, New York'ta gazetesinde dedikodu kolonundan sorumlu bir muhabir olan Mel Fuller ile tanışıyoruz, komşusu saldırıya uğradı ve kedilerine ve köpeklerine bakmak için yeğenleriyle temasa geçti Mel artık bu görevi işiyle uzlaştıramaz (yine de biraz kaotiktir ve her zaman geç kalır). Bununla birlikte, yeğen şu anda en iyi model Vivica ile Karayipler'de ve sadece eski bir üniversite arkadaşının hala ona borçlu olduğu yönünde bir iyilik istiyor. Böylece John yıldız fotoğrafçı Max gibi davranıyor. Olması gerektiği gibi geliyor ve John ve Mel aşık olurken Mel'in arkadaşları onları uyarır çünkü gerçek Max hakkında bazı (gerçek) söylentiler vardır. "Guy Next Door" harika bir eğlence, dünyayı sarsan bir şey değil, dünyaya yeni bir bakış açısı kazandıran hiçbir şey değil, ama klasik bir "civciv" için bir şablon olarak ideal olan güzel mizahi bir hikaye. "harika bir kitap olabilir. Sığ, güzel bir eğlence havasındaysanız, kitap idealdir.
