Asma
Not very insightful or interesting if you're already familiar with the subject. Wanted more about monstrous institutions. Wanted much less evo-psych and manly men. ]]> <![CDATA[peaseblossom added 'The Monkey's Paw and Other Tales of Mystery and the Macabre']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/76588015 to: The Monkey's Paw and Other Tales of Mystery and the Macabre (Paperback) by W.W. Jacobs
Nice short stories, more ironical than scary. ]]> <![CDATA[peaseblossom added 'A.D. 500: A Journey Through the Dark Isles of Britain and Ireland']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/76455964 A.D. 500: A Journey Through the Dark Isles of Britain and Ireland (Paperback) by Simon Young

I had forgotten that this reads like bad fanfiction. Sorely disappointed. ]]> <![CDATA[peaseblossom added 'The Haunting of Hill House']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/76455051 to: The Haunting of Hill House (Penguin Classics) by Shirley Jackson
Love the movie, love the book. Favorite ghost story ever. ]]> <![CDATA[peaseblossom added 'NurtureShock: New Thinking About Children']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/76454843 to: NurtureShock: New Thinking About Children (Hardcover) by Po Bronson
I had read most of the chapters already in various publications, so it wasn't particularly shocking. ]]> <![CDATA[peaseblossom added 'Blood and Politics: The History of the White Nationalist Movement from the Margins to the Mainstream']]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72992832 to: Blood and Politics: The History of the White Nationalist Movement from the Margins to the Mainstream (Hardcover) by Leonard Zeskind
Blood and Politics is chock full of facts; sadly, Zeskind isn't much of a storyteller, so it ends up being both dry and depressing. ]]>
