We need to talk about Robin Williams and mental health
I have a very distinct memory of being young and sitting in my mom's room, watching TV with her. I remember some celebrity death on the news making her put a hand to her chest and saying something akin to, "Oh my God, I loved them so much. I can't believe they're gone." And I wondered if there was something wrong with me that I knew this actor and his death didn't really affect me. It sparked a br

Beautifully written; I loved the relationships the MC forms with...well, everyone. Her mother especially, and her grandmother. It's not often I see well-written relationships in horror/suspense books, but Giddings pulls it off masterfully. Just enough ...more |

Okay. Where do I even start? This was, no joke, a five-star read before I was even halfway done. Thomas doesn't pull ANY punches in this novel. It's beautifully written and an easy read without feeling too 'simple.' His descriptions and monologues are ...more |

"Great historical romance!! Very elegantly written and wonderfully intriguing MCs! Lucas and Henry have captured my heart. Loved the original storyline and setting—spooky and definitely not without danger, what with the whole resurrectionist thing!"

"Lucas Walker is living his life on the streets of London. He’s in his early twenties and now has no means of employment. He’s been black balled by the warehouses and he’s not needy enough for the workhouses. He’s a little awkward, but honest and has "

“Everyone’s had shit in their lives. Some people have it worse than others. But no one can turn you into a bad person, just like no one can turn you into a good one. We’re all dealt our hands in life, and how we choose to react is entirely up to us. That’s free will.”

“The idea of not being a kid anymore terrifies me. I am an adult and I have been hurled out of the world of boys and girls into the fray of men and women, and expected to function as a grown-up when I never functioned very well as a kid.”

“Mama, Mama, help me get home
I'm out in the woods, I am out on my own.
I found me a werewolf, a nasty old mutt
It showed me its teeth and went straight for my gut.
Mama, Mama, help me get home
I'm out in the woods, I am out on my own.
I was stopped by a vampire, a rotting old wreck
It showed me its teeth and went straight for my neck.
Mama, Mama, put me to bed
I won't make it home, I'm already half-dead.
I met an Invalid, and fell for his art
He showed me his smile, and went straight for my heart.

“Does it ever make you sad?"
"Does what?"
"The Sunset,"
"Sad? Nah, I think it's peaceful."
"Not to me. I've always found it depressing."
"How so?"
"I guess because it's the end. I hate endings."
"Not all endings are bad though. I think of sunsets more as a clean slate. Besides, they're beautiful... like you"

Um, on another note... your stats say that you rated Summer Sisters as a 4. I hope you have a really, really good reason for this atrocity.
