I Tagi i_agi — ** spoiler alert ** Favorite Lines: “There are no white knights, Kate. You don’t need one. Get back to your life and make it what you want.” (p. 56) Reverb is a troubling book. Why? It’s a heavy book in which multiple rapes affect everything. I guess that’s where the title kinda comes in as reverb is “an effect whereby the sound produced by an amplifier or an amplified musical instrument is made to reverberate slightly.” It’s not the usual heroine rape, though. The story is intriguing. A man is institutionalized against his will, raped, escapes and must find out how to live again while on the run. The author shows the long journey to self-worth that James is forced to travel and it is a painful trip. It didn’t happen overnight and even by the end of the book, James wasn’t a happy, carefree man. He was a man who made a life after losing everything. He found a woman who supported him and tried to be the best man he could be. The book wasn’t for me though and I’ll tell you why. James (the hero) is obviously an extremely damaged man. He tries to keep people at arm’s length, but when he finally lets his heroine in she tries to show him another side to the atrocities he was forced to endure. She has some valid points, such as he needs to confront his father and see if his father knew how James was being tortured. But she lost me when James expressed his feelings about being returned to the facility. She tells him: “Shut up! I don’t want to hear anymore. How important could Cameron and I possibly be to you if you’re so keen on killing yourself when faced with a little adversity?” “A little adversity?” He flashed her a look like hatred then turned back to the road. “You know what I mean. I need you to listen to me very carefully now.” She hoped he could hear her through his anger. The hero handles it, but with those sentences the heroine lost my support. If I can’t believe in the power of a heroine’s (or hero’s) love, the book does not work as a romance for me. I don’t believe the two can live happily ever after, and for me that makes or breaks a romance novel. However, this book isn’t a romance. It is a general work of fiction that really disturbed me I felt like there was an ongoing theme of characters chastising the hero. Even the hero’s father and his father’s assistant shook their proverbial fingers at the hero. I was pissed. It felt like the characters were trying to justify placing James in a facility, while pleading ignorance of how he was treated. Kinda like, “Well, I (he) did the what I (he) thought was best for the right reasons, but something bad happened. That’s not my (his) fault.” It made me furious. The impertinent child still glared at him. How was he to get through to this man? “He took you into his home, his life, and provided you with a stable, supportive environment that encouraged and funded your talent without limits. And you walked away. You shame me as a man and a mentor. I thought you knew better than that.” Really? After the hero has been raped by men and women, and you now know of his torture, you’re trying to get through to him that his father wanted to take care of him. Really? A grown man? We’re not talking about a teenager. We are talking about a man who is around 30-years-old. From the beginning to the end, people want to fix him, to pull him away from his music simply because he’s a musical prodigy who lives and breathes music. They want him to take a larger interest in the world. Well look at how that world treated him. In the end, Reverb is just not my type of book. It left me disturbed and filled with negative energy.

Daniel Dörrschuck danieldoerrschuck — This is the third book in the Argeneau Vampire series that I have read. They are fast, fun reads about Immortals finding their Life Mates, and along the way, there is mystery, fighting, disapperances and love. This time, Lucian, a very old Immortal, is hunting a rogue vampire and he finds Leigh (she was turned against her will by the rogue) who turns out to be his life mate. Lucian fights against, while trying to help Leigh come to terms with who she is now, an Immortal. Enjoyable, love story.

Joana Casahuaman _oana_asahuaman — Fascinating setting, compelling narrative style, and interesting, complicated characters. Somehow, though, this book didn't amaze me the way I expected it might, after reading others' reviews. The repetition of characters' names was an odd device that, for me at least, was too distracting/confusing to be totally effective, although I understand what the author was going for. I definitely enjoyed it, and will want to re-read it at some point in the future, but I wish my expectations hadn't been so lofty. Then again, perhaps later in life I'll be able to appreciate this one more fully.

Leenaa M _eenaa — Okay so. Wow. Let me just sit here and fathom what just happened. Alright. I got this. I'm good. I'm okay. So, first off, this book technically should be a 3.5. The technical stuff is a bit far fetched and there are moments where I found myself doubting or simply thinking of course. Of freakin' course. But by how I felt while reading it, how much I enjoyed every step of the way, and how I feel about it once finished, would make you think it's a 10/5. Even with hiccups, I'm able to see how awesome this book is. I can understand it's 4.20 rating, something pretty god damn high on the Goodreads scale. The entire premise and set up of the novel is what agitated me the most. Kids began dying everywhere. The survivors form these psychic abilities. Adults fear the power. Government puts them camps to "rehabilitate" but it's just a prison. The opening chapter drew me in, but all the way I resisted. I couldn't quite accept that after hundreds of thousands of children dying between the ages of eight and fourteen, they'd send the remaining living children to these prison camps. Yea, I get it. They're afraid. But again, history shows that society values children--they are the future. But now pregnancies are being banned. It doesn't really make sense to me. There are other problematic things as well including the national debt. Like, we are billions of dollars in national debt. Still doesn't stop us from spending invisible money. I don't know, I just have a hard time succumbing to it all. But once Chubs, Liam and Zu came into the picture, there was no turning back. Holy cow did I grow incredibly fond of all of them and their relationship to one another. These three are what will make you plow through the book. What I really enjoyed about them the most was that despite how horrible things had been for them previously or presently, they were still kids. I thoroughly enjoyed the Team. Enough to let other little aspects and details slip on by. Who cared if Ruby freakin' knew all the oldies despite have a ten year old's education and knowledge of the world. I loved every second of Chubs interaction with anyone, anything. I freakin' loved Chubs. (I loved all of them. I totally fell for the romance, so help me god). Ruby became quite the character. She's not aggressive, but forceful. She's suffered quite a bit of trauma and I appreciate that it never leaves her, that she is constantly dealing with it and always remembering. She's a victim, and by the end of the book, all that anger and fear is justified. You can't help but root for her to control her abilities, to be with Liam, Chubs and Zu, you can't help but want something more for her sine she spent six years having nothing at all. The ending is one of the best endings I've read in YA in a long, long time. No cheap copout. No dangling by a thread. So much is at stake, yet everything feels set in stone. It's like, a huge bolder has been rolled in and you're like WAIT WAIT WAIT STOP. And now you're standing, staring at this huge immobile wall, knowing full well that it had been rolled here, so it can be rolled back, right? RIGHT? Thank God I have the next book already.
