This was a funny book, great author. I love vampire stories and this is vampire with a twist. Just a laugh out loud light read. Vikki

A dscription of the plot has already been made. I enjoyed the book and was confused by it. I love the Anita Blake series, but I have to say the quick turn around for Richard did not seem plausible. I kept waiting for it to be disclosed he was possessed by Mommie Dearest or something. I don't mind the sex, that's part of the Blake series, and I liked the violence and further flushing out of Asher's character. But I was left confused by the transformation of Richard...I don't think wrapping it up by saying he's had therapy and simply accepts himself does it. Overall,it's an okay story, not one of her best. I would like to see a little less sex and more of the ruthlessness of Blake and Jean Claude.

This was a great book for tweens to read on their own or more preferably with a trusted adult. I've used it with some of my young female clients (and parents) and it was very helpful in explaining how our bodies work and "the care and keeping" of our bodies. It also provided several opportunities for the girls to share their feelings or thoughts about other subjects (e.g. peers, possible dating interests, sexuality, etc.). I wish I had this book when I was a young girl.

I enjoyed this story and writing, however, the ending was very abrupt and left me wondering if there was a sequel...very frustrating.

Wonderful development in the Eve-Roarke story. It was great to see Eve vulnerable and shaken at her core but become stronger.

Great story from the Dark Hunter series. I loved this dark character, Zarek. Just enough angst, romance, violence.

Jumping back into the written form of Dexter was great. This book includes a killer that enjoys decorating his work in the most interesting of ways. Things become personal with Dexter when his "loved" ones become involved...also our Dexter is very close to getting caught. Witty writing as usual. It was enjoyable.

My first exposure to the Reacher novels and I am hooked. Clearly the character, action, intrigue would make a great movie, but how terrible to hear Tom Cruise starring in it...
I am a new fan of Mr. Child. Great writing.

I started reading Hooper's paranormal thrillers and so I thought this would be similar--it's not. The story isn't bad and definitely there suspenseful moments but I think the author grew as she started writing Bishop stories. This book just seemed like a romance novel with a tiny bit of ghostly presence.

At first, I thought it was another version of the Hannibal Lecter stories, but it was plesantly and disturbingly different. I plan on reading more from this author, as I'm hooked on the main character Archie and his struggles. The flow of the book was great, character development was pretty good, but I thought the journalist character kinda wrapped up to quickly at the end. But overall I liked this story and will read the next on in the series.

My first time reading this author and I may check out the rest of the series. This story was enjoyable but I felt the ending was a bit rushed and left me vaguely unsatisfied.

Enjoyable mystery, romance angle was okay and didn't really kick off until more towards the mid-end. Which isn't a bad thing...I liked this book and the author is great in keeping the mystery going...

Great suspenseful story, lovin Coben's writing. The ending seemed a bit rushed, but didn't distract from the good story.

WOW! Just a great story and characterization. I'm familiar with psychotic children and the incredible strain on their families and Ms. Gardner got so much of it right! A total page turner although the ending didn't feel as tight as the rest of the book. I'm on the haunt for my next Ms. Gardner novel.

Be prepared to enter the wonderful world of Mosley again with this new complex character. It was a shock to be in the modern age with Mosley's book as the other books I've read was set in 1950-1960's Los Angeles.
This book stumbled a bit for me at the beginning but it definitely hit it's stride in no time. Check it out, you won't be sorry and you will be panting to learn more about Leonid McGill.

Wow, I just couldn't get into this book. Typically, I can finish any book regardless if it's interesting or not...but this one and another by this author I just couldn't take it. The writing was boring and the story line just didn't capture me. Maybe another one from this series will be better...

Wow, I just couldn't get into this book. Typically, I can finish any book regardless if it's interesting or not...but this one and another by this author I just couldn't take it. The writing was boring and the story line just didn't capture me. I tried reading book 7 in this series and same problem. I love books of this genre but this series and the writing was unstimulating.

The Leigh story was okay and as expected. Undeniable attraction, tension, sexual play, romance. I wish the story was longer and characters a little more flushed out but enjoyable. Now for the Burton story...it was very simple, boring even though sex occurred almost every 3 pages. Plot and romance was just background for sex--and not even hot sizzling sex. This was my first story by Burton and am very hesitant to give her another chance.

Wonderful book on Reacher. I'm reading them out of order and this book provides a little more insight into Reacher's personality and motivation. Tightly written and totally enjoyable.
