I won this in a First Reads giveaway on Goodreads. I have read Bram Stoker's Dracula. Unfortunately, I did not enjoy this novel. I don't want to be overly negative so I'll just touch on a few things. I thought that it was a long book. It became hard to read in one sitting, and I felt myself getting distracted rather easily. I didn't feel any 'love' in the novel. It was overly lust filled, and then instant love. I had hoped this would not happen in an adult novel. The characters were so different from the original Dracula, I really had a hard time correlating them with the original. Lucy's character is hardly touched upon. I thought the use of mythology was completely irrelevant and unnecessary. Coupled with the rushed incomplete ending that I had a hard time following, I just couldn't get into this novel. Maybe you will.

Basically what you can expect from a book whose author has no recollection of writing. Burrough's greatest achievement was not Naked Lunch, but living to be 90 years old with such lifestyle.

Wherever you go is Heather Davis third book and one that I really wanted to read so I was super excited to have got an ARC. All that being said I read her first book "don't cry werewolf" and didn't really enjoy it so was hoping for a much better read and i'm very happy to say Wherever you go is one emontionally packed novel with an outstanding plot and has been beautifuly writen. Wherever you go is told from the POV of the three main chacarters Holly,Jason and Rob. Holly is still trying to cope with the death of her boyfriend Rob while also looking after her kid sister as there mum works two jobs. As Holly's grandad Aldo gets to sick to live by himself he has to move in with them so now it falls on Holly again to be the adult/mum and help look after him aswell. I just could help but feel so sorry for her because of his you just want her to at least have some time to be a teenager. As Aldo spends time with Holly he tells her that a boy named Rob is talking to him but Holly does not believe that it is Rob's ghost and thinks it's Aldo's Alzheimers making him see things that are not there. I loved the Aldo and the relonship that him and Holly share with each other. Aldo ask for her help to remmeber a list he has made of all the things that have a special place in his heart. As Holly starts the list she tells only one other person about it Rob's best friend Jason he then agrees to help her and Aldo complete the list. Holly and Jason grow closer while doing the list and was so touching reading about them I couldn't help but want them to be together. Rob gets very jealous of the two of them spending time with each other and I really do feel for him as he watches his best friend and girlfriend but sometimes his POV just got on my nerves. Wherever you go is a great read with topics of death/depression/second chances with a amazing love story rolled into it and a book that will stay with me for a very long time to come. I look forward to whatever Heather Davis writes next. Favourite Quotes 1= When you grow older,you love again,and the new love feels so different that the love before feels like make-belive. The way you love changes throughout your life. Even the way you love the same person changes." 2=" All of it washed away in a tidal wave of love you see rushing towards her shore" 3= " You try to radiate your feeling because there are things you know that you want get the chance to say"

Everyone has an all-time favorite, and this is mine. I re-read this book every year around my birthday as kind of a special treat to myself. Maugham's novels in general are always a good read, but this was the first of his that I read and it just kind of stuck with me. I love fiction from the early to mid 20th century, and Maugham captures all the idiosyncratic aspects of this just-out-of-reach reality that I find charming and curious. I like the way Maugham uses strings of adjectives to describe things and people almost in the round. Like three-dimensional writing. The characters are often hyperbolic, but not without being real people or individuals. The main character, Larry, falls outside most of the other characters' grasp; they just don't understand him, where he's coming from, or why he can't conform. I think most of us can relate to that in one way or another. If you've ever been branded a slacker, a Peter Pan or an outsider for choosing to follow a different path in life that severely arcs from the norm, you'll find a level of comfort and a sense of validation in this novel. Not a triumphant glorification, but just a quiet, understood nod of the head from a kindred spirit. When I finished reading it for the first time, almost twenty years ago, I sat down and wrote a thank you note to the person who had recommended it to me!

So isn't she still amazing? At 80+ and she can still draw me into her characters' lives, motives, murders. I just looked at her photo on the back cover and she reminds me of the actress who first played Tommy's wife (Elizabeth George's series on tv's Mystery). Wonderfully engaging face.

What was so appealing to me about this book was that it is about the immigrant experience in the early settlement of the United States. So I absolutely loved the very beginning of the book, the middle was interesting, but by the time narrative voice goes to college, I was less interested. If the book is about Antonia, I don’t really understand why we spent that time hearing about Jim’s college experience. I’m sure it was meant as a contrast and it was that, but it wasn’t particularly interesting. This book was also a very easy read, but I didn’t find myself underlining many passages or marveling at how ideas were put together. Ultimately, I liked the concept of the book more than how it ultimately came together. Maybe I’m just not a Willa Cather fan.

Poetry fans tune in--this woman is incredible. One reading of "The Journey" and I was hooked. Check it out.

Bendis keeps escalating the "what's at stake" and you'd think by now it would have gone to ridiculous lengths, but even with ultimate destruction on the loose, and the end of the world very fucking nigh, he still writes very real, very believable dialogue and never forgets who his characters are, inside. Dark dark dark storytelling, but this is why he's a modern master of the medium.

I liked it. A good succesor to the first book. I'd read another. Though it always ends so happily, what problems could they have in the future? A nice book with good lessons for young adolescents.
