" They'd started coming six years ago, just that one day, after the sun had set... The third year there was a celebration... Fourth year there was another celebration... Fifth year they took Chris, my best friend since we were little... Sixth year, I shot an angel in the face.
It's early days but I loved that opening chapter :)" — May 23, 2013 10:27am

Two stars, eh? Looks like it must be a negative review, right? In this case, though, this isn't that much of a negative review. Rather, these are the reasons why I didn't love this book and the reasons why I think a whole bunch of other peopl...more |

“But as much as we wish it were different, the truth is, our worlds are sometimes balanced on choices we make and secrets we keep.” Four and a half stars. Because, really, I think this is a four-star read but there are five-star tears running...more |

This book was a very pleasant surprise. My copy of this has been waiting a while, constantly put aside in favour of other historical fiction novels that appealed to me more - for example, Out of The Easy and In the Shadow of Blackbirds. Howev...more |

“Oh, New York,” he whispered. “We’re gonna have so much fun.” I think I am once again in the minority here - but for a good reason this time. I actually liked this sequel quite a bit better than the first and I think I might have been willing...more |

2.5 Do you ever find yourself reading a book and thinking that you would probably have enjoyed it a lot more if you hadn't already read something that does the same thing but much better? That's how I felt for the majority of Dear Life, You Su...more |

“All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”
