At first, seducing Drew was nothing but a nice sport for Ron. But as he gets to know Drew better, he soon perceives the depths of pain and despair within the other man. Before he knows what happens. Ron is playing for keeps. And so is Drew, but he’s got a formidable opponent: himself. Both characters are likeable and well-drawn, although I had some minor issues with Drew. He has suffered a terrible trauma, but after so many years and given the way he feels about Ron, he acts a bit erratic and over the top aggressive at times. Yet, this wasn’t so far-fetched that I couldn’t indulge him. Ron, though – he was wonderful, open and unashamed about what he was and what he wanted. His patience with Drew bordered on that of a saint – in his stead, I’d have given up on Drew much earlier. Then again, Ron got the lowdown on Drew’s ghost – quite literally. I found myself really caring for those two, rooting for them and cheering them on to their well-deserved, completely satisfying HEA. Speaking of which, those ghostbusters were fabulous (although from how they were pictured, I found myself constantly looking for Scooby Doo). By bringing them in, the author took every trace of horror from the plot, turning it effectively into the plain paranormal mystery it was laid out to be. Due to all the angsty emotional turmoil Drew and Ron have to overcome there wasn’t really a lot of sex in this book; what little there is, was filled with purpose and emotions and described in graphic detail. There were quite many kisses, though, and those were hot enough to scorce the pages. I also loved the coastal setting of the story and the way the author used Ron’s professional eye to transport me, as a reader to this place where I have never been in my life, picturing it so vividly I could practically smell the sea. Very well done. All in all, a very well crafted romance with an almost believable paranormal element and a completely satisfying solution. Highly recommended.

Ortaçağda İki Yahudi Seyyahın İslam Dünyası Gözlemleri-Nuh Arslantaş TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

I really wanted to like this book and after being pleasantly surprised (and touched) by "The Secret Life of Bees" I was pretty eager to read it. Having said that, I didn't dislike it. I guess disappointed is the word. I was disappointed in the characters, the themes, the motivations and the plot overall. The characters seemed stock/shallow and a bit forced with the only believable one of the lot being the poor husband (and the friend’s “off” daughter, who was a hoot...we needed more of her) and the dog. Nothing is really explained and while I understand that impulses don't always warrant explanation, it still left me feeling a bit used up and frustrated. The sex scenes were especially tedious and sometimes I almost felt as if this was a serious confessional (but I also think I’m a bit of a prude). I found myself plodding along because it wasn't a very long book in hopes that at some point it would suddenly make sense. And don't get me wrong, Sue Monk Kidd has talent, there are some brilliant passages here, beautiful and moving and as real as anything you'd like. The mystery of the mother and her self mutilation was quite intriguing as well as various "touched upon" descriptions of the island (like the slave cemetery). But overall it was a bit of a let down and I may have expected too much of it because of the previous read. So I apologize for wanting that "heck yeah!" feeling I got with "Secret Life of Bees" and should have just let this one present itself on its own without pretext.
