![]() Ministry of Moral Panic was a whole different story. Perhaps I will try it again in future, too. I persisted through half of the book, then caught interest in another book, and haven’t managed to go back since. It had an interesting premise and an interesting point of view, but the writing just didn’t capture my attention enough. ![]() It was a finalist in the Epigram Books Fiction Prize (a fiction prize from Singaporean publisher Epigram Books), and has an average of 4.16 on Goodreads, so I expected lots from it. I never got to touch it perhaps I will in future. Ten Things My Father Never Taught Me is a collection of short stories by prize-winning Singaporean poet, Cyril Wong. ![]() Ministry of Moral Panic by Amanda Lee Koe. ![]() ![]() ![]() And while it sounds like salvation - even for the vampires themselves - the truth is far more sinister and deadly. It seems that an organization called the Daylight Foundation has offered the population of Morganville something they've never had: hope of a vampire-free future. The town looks cleaner and happier than they've ever seen it before, but when their incoming group is arrested and seperated - vampires from humans - they realize that the changes definitely aren't for the better. ![]() ![]() Something drastic has happend in Morganville while Claire and her friends were away. But the Morganville they return to isn't the one they know it's become a different place - a deadly one. While Morganville,Texas,is often a troubled town, Claire Danvers and her friends are looking forward to coming home. Rachel Caine is a pen name of Roxanne Longstreet Conrad. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The TASCHEN catalog includes scholarly examinations of cultural icons such as Muhammad Ali, gorgeous monographs on painters like Hieronymous Bosch, exquisite books of photography like Sebastião Selgado’s Genesis and portfolios of muscle cars. TASCHEN’s lavishly produced art books run the gamut from the ridiculous ( The Big Book of Breasts) to the sublime (17th-century naturalist Albertus Seba’s Cabinet of Natural Curiosities). TASCHEN’s success derives from his personality: he publishes books that reflect his own diverse personal enthusiasms. The first copy in a limited edition published in 1999 and signed by many of the celebrities whose images appear in its pages sold at auction for $364,000. Sumo, a 464-page, 66-pound compendium of Helmut Newton’s photography is one of the largest and heaviest books ever produced - it comes with its own display stand - and among the most expensive, too. ![]() ![]() From his humble beginning selling comic books in his native Cologne to his rapidly expanding book publishing empire, Benedikt Taschen has been all about living large - literally. ![]() ![]() ![]() I just wish he'd play around with voices just a little more in order to find tones that are more natural sounding.Ī twist of humor adds to the thrilling mysteries. It's just so incredibly obvious that it's totally distracting to me. It's very obvious he can not maintain that level of tone of voice, and had he chosen to not go so low, it would have sounded way better. ![]() Like when a woman tries to imitate a man, so she sounds like she's puckering her lips. But when he's narrating (in this case) Royce's parts in dialogue, he sounds absolutely ridiculous. As I've said before, I get that this is a tough series to narrate because the books have like 10+ characters in them with dialogue. The issue with this one, is the same as it was with the previous books, Kenneth Obi's attempt to make his voice deeper. Believe me, it has nothing to do with a preconceived idea of what the characters should sound like, oh no, not at all. man, the audiobooks are hard for me to listen to. They're hot, steamy, sexy, the men are complex and sweet and infuriating and just all sorts of good stuff. The spin off series - aka where this book fits in, is just as great. ![]() The Unbreakable Bonds series is fantastic. I'm a big fan, BIG fan of these two authors' books. ![]() ![]() ![]() I sighed heavily and thought to myself, I wonder if she’ll destroy all the bad guys? A few pages later I met her twin brother, Andreus, who was the SUPER HANDSOME HAS A WAY WITH ALL THE WOMEN trope. Until about two pages in, when I discovered that Carys, one of the siblings, was a STRONG INDEPENDENT GIRL BEING HELD CAPTIVE BY AN OPPRESSIVE MALE SOCIETY. Sibling rivalry over a throne? I was excited. ![]() I thought it would be a departure from the usual STRONG INDEPENDENT GIRL SHOVES OFF OPPRESSIVE MALES TO DESTROY ALL THE BAD GUYS that seems to be the thing in YA right now. The tagline at the top of the book reads: The premise of this book appeared unique. When it came, I cracked it open only to remember within the first chapter why it was that I took a break from YA books. I did it quickly enough that I was only 4th in line, not like Into the Water which I am currently still at waiting for at 46th. ![]() I went online and immediately got in line to borrow this book from my library. ![]() ![]() Sally is sitting on her bed and doesn't realize that he's watching her. She races back to tell the others, but Nate and Jerry think that she's just high.Ī short while later, Brian Evans goes to Sally's cabin. She walks down towards the lake where she sees the spectral forms of several bodies rising from the lake. Ryan puts up a half-hearted defense for his friend, but it is still enough to anger Sasha and she storms out of the cabin. Sasha continues to make fun of Brian, berating him for his nerdish behavior and high I.Q. Sally doesn't fall for it, and tells Mike that she's not interested.Īfter things calm down, Ryan, Sasha, Brian, Nate and Jerry go to Ryan's cabin to play some guards. Mike also makes sure that Sally is okay after her near-drowning experience earlier, but in truth, he is really using the time as an opportunity to make a move on her. ![]() ![]() Nate and Jerry reach the safety of the other counselors before Rico can get his hands on them and Mike Burns tells Rico to cover himself because he's "scaring the girls" with his nakedness. Rico flies into a rage and chase after them completely naked. ![]() They are interrupted when they discover the two new junior counselors Jerry White and Nate Dodds peeping at them through the window. Later that evening, Rico and Alisha are making love in their cabin. They administer CPR and Sally appears to be fine. The counselors manage to rescue Sally and pull her back to the shore. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Set in idyllic rural Iowa and told in lyrical, poetic, sometimes sentimental prose, Shoeless Joe is a story of the power of the imagination and the triumph of love. Salinger, who joins Ray in his quest to restore the broken dreams of the past. Shoeless Joe shows up, and Ray continues to pursue his dream, even traveling cross-country to kidnap the reclusive writer J. ![]() From this premise, Kinsella spins his tale full of magic and nostalgia. Jackson was banned from baseball for life following the Black Sox Scandal of 1919, in which he and seven other players accepted bribes to throw the World Series. One day he hears a mysterious voice saying, "If you build it, he will come." Ray believes this is an instruction to build a baseball field at his farm and that the "he" is his father's hero, Shoeless Joe Jackson, one of the greatest baseball players of all time. The narrator, Ray Kinsella, is a baseball fanatic and dreamer who owns a farm in Iowa. Kinsella's first novel, Shoeless Joe, published in Boston in 1982, is an ingenious baseball story that smoothly weaves together fact and fantasy. ![]() ![]() Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Ship of Destiny picks up each of the trilogy’s many storylines from where they left off at the end of The Mad Ship. First, though, I need to post my thoughts on Ship of Destiny – and as this is a trilogy which really needs to be read in order, I can’t avoid spoiling elements of the previous two books here if you think you might want to read them I would recommend going no further with this review until you’ve read both Ship of Magic and The Mad Ship. Having become quite attached to the characters and swept away by the story over the course of the three novels, I’m sorry to have come to the end – but I have to admit, I’m also happy that I’ve finished and can now move on to the Tawny Man books and rejoin old friends from Hobb’s Farseer trilogy. This, the third of Robin Hobb’s Liveship Traders novels, brings the trilogy to an exciting and satisfying conclusion. ![]() |
