Eve of Samhain by Lisa Sanchez was an easy, yet interesting and fun read. It depicts the story of Ryann, a hard-working, sassy, and determined young woman, and her unusual encounter with Quinn, a Gancanagh - which, by theway, is a mythological faerie in Irish lore that possesses the blessing or the curse (whichever way you look at it) to seduce women just by touching them. The catch is, the women he touches inevitably die from their obsession. See what I mean by curse? Quinn meets Ryann at the club in which she works, riling her up with his crude language and cocky attitude. Of all the women he's met in his 500+ years, not one has resisted him, much less given him a snappy attitude, until Ryann. Needless to say, his interest is piqued by this anomaly, and he and Ryann develop a friendship and deep caring for each other from a distance. They can never touch lest Ryann succumb to the curse. In addition to that major inconvenience, there is another catch to the curse that leaves Ryann scrambling to save Quinn before Samhain. A lot of readers seemed to have a problem with Quinn's cockiness, but I had some minor issues with the heroine of this novel. Ryann was a bit repetitive with her gushing about her attraction to Quinn - 'Ok, we get the point'... She was also more than a tad blubbery and childish, with her desperate need for Quinn to tell her how he felt despite the volumes his actions spoke. Her insecurities were a mild annoyance, what with her 'ass the size of Texas' and her inability to understand her worth to Quinn. However, despite her immature faults, Ryann is still a likeable character, and I will give her credit for her independence, stubbornness, and quick wit. Quinn, on the other hand, was a riot. You'd think after 500 years, the man might have matured, but he holds on to his youthful and perverse outlook on women and life in general. The lingo is hilarious, and I found my eyes bulging out of my sockets on more than one occasion. His identity was the most interesting to me - an ancient Irish faerie - and the history was pretty colorful, especially when Voodoo Martha and her generational witchiness came in to play, revealing firsthand glimpses into Quinn's mythological past. The storyline is predictable, but it covers all the bases, leaving the reader satisfied with the outcome of the book. The writing within the pages was fresh and made me laugh out loud frequently. Some people found the language and wit offensive, but, seriously, all you need is the tiniest sense of humor to get a kick out of the dialogue and point-of-view of the audacious Ryann. I would categorize this book into the 'fantasy romance' section of my personal library. It's funny and crude, yet passionate with grave undertones that give it a colorful texture of emotions and plights, never leaving the reader with that undesirable feeling of monotony. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a leisurely read and (hehe) aren't easily offended. Happy Reading Everyone :)

there were MANY parts that annoyed me and seemed preachy, but in the end-- a feel good book about friendship and hope.

I finally finished this book! I bought it when I met Orson Scott Card at All Staff Day and started reading it right away, but it is 662 pages and I kept having to set it aside for library books that I was reading. I really liked this book. It is classic OSC. Book 2 in this series just came out and I'll be anxious to read it. I really liked the direction that it was going when it ended and can't wait to read more.

Next to Rabbits, this is the best book I have ever read. The simplicity of how Johnson explores the impact each person has on one other is poetic. The characters are alive in the book and as an adult reader I cried as Bird realized what it was she really wanted.
