5 comments about The Time Traveler's Wife.

1. Started reading and on day two I am already at 387 pages. CAN'T put it DOWN... I was a little confused by the time changes at the beginning and who exactly was in what time and place.I would have to go back and look at the chapter header again to see the date and the characters ages and when I thought I finally had it clear, the author threw another curve ball-can you be in two places at once?. She does explain rather quickly the particulars of what I wasn't getting though. I still have some more unanswered questions like if Henry is existing in the present while moving through time in the future will the two ever converge and the trip be over? I guess I will see........



2. While I enjoyed the idea(s) behind this book, I certainly did not appreciate reading the poor and questionable language found on many of it's pages. This book was so offensive that I stopped reading it after the first 5 chapters and threw it away. I can not imagine anyone I respect liking this book. I would NEVER recommend it.



3. I did not like this book. I have read books before where I didn't like the main character, but I found the two main characters unbearable. What kind of person sleeps with her best friend's husband and doesn't give it a second thought? A good writer would've given me something to like about these characters, some way that I could relate to them or understand their decisions. Nothing. I never felt that the characters were fully developed. It was an interesting idea, but the characters were way too flat and one-dimensional. It didn't seem realistic at all (and not even because of the time traveling aspect).



4. I don't often say that a movie is better than a book, but I will for this one. If you are a Christian and trying to protect your mind from smut then don't read this book. I read for a 1/2 hour and was offended enough times to finally decide to quit reading it. It contains smut, swearing and immorality. The book is also poorly written. Once again, I'm disappointed with modern authors. I'll stick with the classics.



5. I watched my daughter sleeping the other night. I wished I could stop time. I wished I could stay there forever.
   
   My melancholy mood has a name, and it is "The Time Traveler's Wife". Like most novels that claim to be about one thing, it is really about its opposite--here, escaping the bonds of time throws our prison bars into greater relief. The love story at its center is both mundane and profoundly moving. I can't point to any special insight, any masterful display of wordplay, but for days after I wanted to reach out, to cling to my family, to stretch each moment into eternity.
   
   Audrey Niffenegger's novel is about love, but it is also about loss. Clare, the wife in question, is married to Henry, who is sort of an epileptic with a twist--instead of seizures, his fits send his body hurtling randomly backwards or forwards in time. He takes nothing with him; he arrives naked and disoriented, and each time must first set about finding clothing, shelter and food, putting him in mortal danger. Clare must sit and wait, and hope that he will eventually return to her.
   
   The great thing about time travel is it submits docilely to whatever interpretation you care to impose. Pick your metaphor. Relationship woes or dealing with illness and disease are the obvious ones here. Fate and free will are equally plausible. The fleeting nature of time. Life's randomness and unfairness. I suspect it is this malleability of meaning that has made this such a popular book.
   
   Ms Niffenegger concentrates on the story and allows you to scribble whatever meaning you like onto her canvas. What did come through strongly for me was her belief in the power of art to transcend the limits of time. Henry is the son of a violinist and an opera singer. He bonds with teenagers over punk rock music made before they were born. Clare's mother writes poetry, her sister is cellist, she herself is a sculptor. Clare's mother, uncommunicative in life, speaks to her daughter through her poems. Henry's mother lives on in recordings of her performances. Towards the end of the novel, Clare creates a self-portrait, then "I (Clare) place my finger on her forehead, and say, "Vanish", but it is she who will stay; I am the one who is vanishing." Art, in other words, outlives its creator.
   
   It is a moving book, but not especially movingly written. The power comes from the story's conception rather than execution. Henry and Clare are almost too perfect, too pure in their love. I was reminded somewhat of "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" (the filmic version; I must confess to never having read the original story), in that the remarkable character at the center doesn't do anything especially remarkable with his life.
   
   The only sour note for me was the priviledged backgrounds Ms Niffenegger gives both Henry and Clare. Henry's parents are world-famous, Clare's are fabulously wealthy. While partially this is a plot point--the garden of Clare's house becomes their secret rendezvous--it somewhat blunts the pathos. Consider 23-year-old Ann in "My Life Without Me", struggling to protect her unemployed husband and two infant children from the fact that she is dying of cancer. That gets my sympathy. Being born into immense wealth, staying wealthy because your husband knows all the lottery numbers, but frustrated because he's not always around? Ho-hum.
   
   I know, I know. I'm a stone. The trick is despite the so-so love story, there's enough that lingers with you long enough to get you watching your loved ones at night.

5 comments about Black Magic Sanction (Rachel Morgan, Book 8).

1. I love this series! It is my new favorite, and all the books are good to me. Some are better than others but this one rocked!



2. I was eager for this book to come out and I am certainly happy I read it.
   What stops me from giving it a higher rating?
   
   I think it comes down to the fact that the lead character never develops and we go through all the same relationships over and over.
   She has apparently learned nothing from her experiences and makes the same mistakes and reacts the same way she did in the first books.
   So we are just going through the same problems and the same issues: Ivy (of if only, no, no I shouldn't), Nick (how could he betray me), Trent (my judgment of him was formed when I was a kid and I am not going to examine it to see if it was valid), ....
   
   Its a little like spending time with a whiny teenager, who is insisting they know everything and then keeps making the same amazing errors in judgment again and again (and again and again).
   
   So while the plot is fun and interesting, and the book moves along at a nice rapid clip, at this point Rachel has become so annoying and certain plot developments so repetitive that it diminishes my pleasure in the book.



3. The latest in Kim Harrison's Hollow series starring Rachel Morgan who is trying to find peace within her life.
   
   I won't do a review of the story since everyone else had in their reviews.
   
   This is probably THE Best (audio)book that I've listened to (and will have to read later).
   
   Ms. Marguerite Gavin is back and hopefully she'll stay on for the entire series to the end as she does a terrific job with her voice impersonations of the characters, esp. Rachel and Jenks!
   
   This book finally brings back Nick and Al and we find out a bit more about Rachel's ability along with a newer enemy, the Coven! Jenk's life also has a dramatic twist!
   
   Rachel seems to have started to mature as she's less whiny. Yes, life stinks for her but some of it was her own doing! Without the mess, the series would be boring!
   
   There's more action this time as most of the character development was done in the past books. There was lots of excitement in almost every other chapter! Wow!
   
   No more, or rather, LESS emotional garbage than in the past books though there is 1 "obligatory" sex scene towards the end but, hey, it's a romance novel... er.... fantasy novel... um... Urban Fantasy novel, darn it!! Just skip the pages if you don't like it as I did! Ho hum!!
   
   The ONE annoying thing about the book (and the series) is Rachel! She really is a ... Virgin... when it comes to getting her hands dirty! When push comes to shove, I would NOT trust her much to watch my back! Sure, she cares for her friends but she will definitely NOT KILL (literally) for them or for herself, even in self defense)!
   
   Rachel really needs to get over her "Holier than Thou" or Ms. Innocence attitude! It's REALLY Tiresome!
   
   Hopefully, the pace for the next book will be similar to this one!
   
   Wondering how long the series will last, though?!
   
   Now, the waiting begins again for another year or two before the next book is released! The withdrawal is gonna hurt again!



4. My husband got me stuck on this series and while this book isn't laugh-out-loud funny like the rest of her books, it still kept me turning the pages and subsequently staying up all night. The lack of sleep was completely worth it though. While Rachael is still in her usual amount of trouble, the decisions of her past press hard upon her making it hard to stay alive now. We get to see a very different side of Jenks, and while I didn't really like it, it added to his character significantly. The story with Nick did get a bit old because, personally, I was quite done with him two books ago and Rachael should have been too. Nick's reappearance is really the only reason this book didn't get 5 stars.



5. Black Magic Sanction (Rachel Morgan, Book 8)
   What happened Kim; the best part of this book was the title? It was boring, boring, boring! Read every book could not wait to read the next one. But this was slow, she couldn't get a story going, keep trying and it just didn't happen like the other books. I was so bored, I would put it down then pick it up and try again, and it just never could get interesting. It was like someone else wrote for her and they read the past books and tried to write from them. I've never read one of her past books where she jumped all over the place like she did in this one. She contradicted herself several times. She has great chracters in her books to work with and this time they were just boring. Oh, and what's up with a vampire who breaks their arm and goes to the hospital and gets a cast on it, made me laugh. That shows you how she was desperately trying to come up with ideas, that were not working. The worst part of the book was her pitiful attempt at a sex scene at the very end of the book. She knew she should throw in a sex scene and it was to late to pitiful!! This book is a waste of time to read. When I start a book, good or bad I always finish it.

1 comments about Player's Handbook 3: A 4th Edition D&D Core Rulebook.

1. The Player's Handbook 3 is Wizards of the Coast's latest Dungeons and Dragons player supplement. Like the Player's Handbook 2, it introduces the player to new classes, races, feats, items, and character generation rules. While these rules are well-implemented and generally thoughtful in concept, a few oversights decrease the book's overall quality.
   
   The PH3 adds the long-awaited Psionic power source to the player's arsenal, and this new resource is very different from the past 4e power sources. Every role is filled, and the overall game mechanics are changed notably by three of these classes in order to provide a unique play experience. Instead of gaining encounter powers, Ardents, Battleminds, and Psions gain power points, a per-encounter resource that can be used to augment many of their daily powers, replaceable at-will powers, and even item powers. These augments might change the range, damage, or control effects of a given power. While it may take a while to fully understand the balance implications of these revisions, at first glance this mechanic appears fresh and useful.
   
   To complement the new classes, WotC included four races for player use. The Githzerai, Minotaur, Shardmind, and Wilden are all in this source book, and are given PH2 style racial paragon paths. These races fit the new classes well, and as usual grant the player a +2 to two ability scores. The twist is that, in all cases, the player is given a choice between two ability scores to increase. For example, the Shardmind always receives a +2 to Intelligence, but the player can choose between Wisdom and Charisma as a second ability score bonus. This flexibility increases the player's control over the character and provides more possible variety in the race roster.
   
   In terms of feats, items, and skills, it appears that the PH3 has the usual fare, with one notable exception. Skill powers allow players to swap utility powers for new powers that correspond to trained skills. This new option is flavorful and makes your character's skills more useful both in and out of combat. As usual, expect to find interesting new items and feats that work well with the new classes and races.
   
   Perhaps the most far-reaching development in the PH3 is the addition of Hybrid class rules. These rules allow an effective combination of character classes starting from level one, and result in more of a 50/50 split between the 2 classes than the PH1's multiclass rules. Every class is given a hybrid write up (features only, so you still need another source for powers), and the player is given rules for picking two of these write ups and combining them into one class. Many notable class features are lost, but some can be regained through the Hybrid Talent feat and more powers and features can be gained by forgoing a Paragon Path (much like Paragon Multiclassing). Hybrid rules do not stop a player from multiclassing into a third class, and this feature could result in some truly interesting three-class characters. Indeed, these rules will strongly affect every player supplement released in this edition of D&D, as every new class and class feature will need a hybrid version printed to be compatible with this rule.
   
   Finally, I have a few critiques to note. First, as I read, I ran into many powers and class features that are not well-edited. The Battlemind in particular may have real problems if the DM does not allow for some slight rule flexibility to make his features work as the rules clearly intend (if you are curious about a lot of these issues, I encourage you to check out the D&D forums). Second, a major inconsistency really bothered me. The Monk, a psionic striker in this edition, does not follow the power point rules that every other psionic class follows. While the Monk has its own interesting mechanics, it could have easily fallen under the martial source given its nature, and it's very disappointing to me that no striker exists that uses power points. Third, and probably most important, the Runepriest and the Seeker feel like filler classes. While they may be robust and interesting in terms of gameplay, they do not fit the psionic mold of the book, and unlike the PH2, the PH3 only adds six classes. These strange new divine and primal additions simply feel out of place, and I think the PH2's approach of adding four classes from one source and two from two others made it a better read.
   
   The PH3 is a buy for players who enjoy D&D and want psionic options, or even for those who just care about hybrid rules. The new player options are plentiful and are sufficiently different from past material that a simple reflavoring of other power sources will not do psionics or hybrid rules justice. A few implementation problems keep these great ideas from perfection, but I certainly hope WotC continues in this general direction for future supplements.

5 comments about Catching Fire (The Second Book of the Hunger Games).

1. A well-written follow-up to The Hunger Games. Just as exciting, if a little slower to get into. We find that, despite our hope from the ending of The Hunger Games, very little has changed for Katniss. She has new scenery, but the same problems. She no longer has the things she enjoyed, such as hunting in the woods with Gale, who has not quite forgiven her affection for Peeta. And she learns that all she feared is true: the Capital is angry with her and she must do the impossible and make it right.
   
   These books really are very good. They are engaging, exciting, and horrifying. The characters continue to be developed in manner consistent with the first book. I found myself physically reacting to deaths and unexpected funny events. I felt involved and I cannot wait until book 3 in August.



2. *** DO NOT READ THIS REVIEW UNLESS YOU'VE ALREADY READ The Hunger Games. ***
   
   How could things get any worse or any more tense after Katniss and Peeta won the Hunger games? Both of them are alive, and they made it home. But Kat has to deal with Gale, her (male) best friend and hunting partner who is confused about their relationship. The whole nation saw the televised kiss that Kat gave Peeta, and their love (even if it was staged for the cameras) kept Kat alive. If that were the only problem, we'd have a slight Edward Cullen/Jacob Black situation on our hands, and the book would be a disappointment. Good, but not great. (Yet, who would be Edward and who would be Jacob?)
   
   But the bland and menacing President visits Kat and with blood on his breath (yes, actual blood, ugh...) he commands her to quell any possible uprisings in other districts and show allegiance to the Capitol. Apparently, by threatening to eat the berries, Kat was defying the Capitol and giving people hope and defiance for the first time in years. Kat's mockingjay pin, her standard, has become an underground symbol of the resistance. If, by her words and deeds, she cannot manage to crush any uprisings, her family, and Peeta's and Gale's, will be killed.
   
   Fatal ultimatum for both parties. Kat immediately plans to run away, taking everybody with her. But she can't take the whole village, and she owes almost everybody in the village for sending packages to keep her alive during the Hunger Games. She realizes the futility of running away and instead just plans to be a sweet, girlish airhead during the required Victory Tour, as she and Peeta tour all the districts. Only in Rue's district does she see a few minor signs of rebellion and the brutal way the detractors are punished. And then rumors that a demolished District 13 might still be functioning add only more adrenaline and worry to the story.
   
   But then the Capitol plans something more sinister - two winners from each district must compete in the Quarter Quell, with only one ultimate winner, again. Having another Hunger Game, only with more contestants seemed like an author cop-out, but at the same time, Collins wrote about them so well, I knew that I would enjoy them with shock and horror. Kat and Peeta each compete against 2 competitors from 11 other districts, again with only one surviving winner. But this time, Kat has one mission - Keep Peeta Alive.
   
   Kat's so curmudgeonly and so grumpy, with a fierce love that barely shines through her rough and practical ways. As she's about to enter the arena for what she believes is the last time, "My prep team. My foolish, shallow, affectionate pets, with their obsessions with feathers and parties, nearly break my heart with their goodbye. It's certain from Venia's last words that we all know I won't be returning. Does the whole world know it? I wonder. I look at Cinna. He knows, certainly. But as he promised, there's no danger of tears from him."
   
   Satisfying, stomach-turning, surprising, Catching Fire does not disappoint. And I can't wait for Book Three - Mockingjay.



3. I'm not going to argue that this is great literature or even the most original book I've ever read. But its a quick, engaging and fun read even if its pure bubblegum. I also think I enjoyed this book more than The Hunger Games.



4. Once again I am amazed and in awe of the depth and magnitude of Collin's imagination. It's nothing to create a fantasy world that takes us away and makes us wish for a bit of the miraculous in our everyday lives but it's quite another to conjure up a vivid, vibrant world so detailed that it becomes almost tangible and then make sure you never ever want to go there.
   
   In this sequel to The Hunger Games we are once again the spectators- the downtrodden hopeless plebs of the Districts and the spoiled, sadistic privileged people of the Capitol. Only this time, instead of being sold on a victor by means of carefully timed and planned marketing and strategizing, we our watching Katniss and Peeta, our victors- the ones we chose, the ones we wanted to win. When a tribute is victorious in the Hunger Games, and survives the grueling ordeal of a televised, free-for-all murderous battle in which children from each District slaughter each other in an effort to stay alive he or she is sent home to live in comfort and luxury for the rest of his or her life. Until last year, the 74th annual hunger games, there has traditionally been only one victor. But when Katniss and Peeta, the seemingly star-crossed lovers from District 12, in an act of defiance against the very game they're forced to play, threaten a double suicide, the nation of Panem demands a last minute rule change that allows both tributes from a District to win. Now Katniss and Peeta reign as the nations sweethearts, the boy and girl who survived the game due only to their love for each other. To the brats in the Capitol they are the latest fad, and to the withered people of the Districts, their manipulation of the Games is the stuff that can spark rebellion.
   
   The system of government in place in the nation of Panem and the Hunger Games themselves, are all meant to be reminders to the people of the District that they are at the mercy of their government, and at any moment they can crush them. In a place where such a constant show of force and brutality is needed to dim the people's rebellious spark, would Katniss really be left alone to live out her life in the comfort her new title brings? Or will the nation of Panem place new demands on their hero? The government demands that the people's hero help quell the threat of rebellion. The citizens demand that their hero, the girl on fire, set the nation ablaze.
   
   Oh wow. I just loved it. Best cliff hanger in a book, hands down. I love that Collins is letting her character explore various different types of love. I know a lot of people are unhappy with the Peeta/Gale struggle but I think what the author is showing is very valuable. Katniss is a teenage girl who is learning that one love is totally different from another. That she can love Peeta the way she does and yet feel a romantic love for another. I don't feel that she's written a love triangle at all. And oh I love Peeta! All of the big surprises in this story came from him!
   
   You must read this and then join me in pining for the third book.



5. I love the books and love the audio book. I love her voice and think she puts humor in it as she reads it. I can't wait for the next book!!

5 comments about The Hunger Games.

1. I spent one entire day reading this book. I could NOT put the thing down! The Hunger Games is very engrossing, nail biting, and rewarding. I felt like the plot was something I had never read before, so it is an original and refreshing fantasy since the Twilight craze. Obviously, parents of younger teens should be aware that the book is (surprise!) very violent since it involves teens killing eachother to stay alive. However, the book to me is more than just an entertaining story. It is a futuristic portrayal of Rome, which reveals the demented crave for bloody entertainment and how societies accept it.



2. Already had a copy. Purchased this one for a relative. My son had to read this for school, but I picked it up and could not put it down. Finished it in about three days and have been recommending it to everyone I know. Great book.



3. Really great book. I've read at least 3 times. The first time I read it, I read for 3 hours straight and did nothing but read the book. I would reccomend the book to anyone!



4. Death, romance, killing, phenomenal writing... HOLY COW! Pick it up, man!
   -Hannah
   
   P.s. I see many of the negative reviews compare The Hunger Games to Koushun Takami's Battle Royale. From someone whose read and thoroughly enjoyed both, I find that funny considering both novels are nothing alike. (Other than the obvious parts, of course)



5. Why would the kindle edition be more expensive than the paperback and the hardcover editions?

5 comments about Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.

1. Predictable and not well written. This appears pretty apparent early on, but the book was an easy read so I finished it anyway.
   
   Everyone knows Lincoln experienced a lot of setbacks in his life (the death of his mother, sister, first love and two children; defeat in the Senate), what Grahame-Smith does is basically attribute all of this to vampires, usually in pretty obvious, out-of-thin-air ways.
   
   "The doctor said Abe's mother died of milk sickness, but Abe knew the truth... it was a vampire."
   
   For this reason the book isn't really like Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code or Angels and Demons; those books were more exciting and not as predictable
   
   The novel is historically accurate (except for the Vampires), but that doesn't do much to endear it. I don't think it'd be that hard to write a similar book, just take the biography of a reasonably interesting person, attribute all their problems and bad luck in life to Vampires, and you're done! It doesn't even have to be that well written. Despite the historical accuracy of major events, Lincoln comes off as a pretty thin character, someone who just hates Vampires because they've caused him a lot of pain.
   
   My advice would be to stick with the truth on this one; Doris Kearns-Goodwin's Team of Rivals is an infinitely better, although more challenging, read.



2. I didn't read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies because it seemed kind of gimmicky (not necessarily a terrible thing, but not an awesome thing in a book, either), but mostly because I loathe Jane Austen. Yes, I admit it: I am a Jane Austen loather. You can go ahead and take away my girl credentials now (I really wasn't using them, anyway). I like my husband's take on Jane Austen, "They're books where a couple of really rich people like each other, play hard to get, finally marry and own a third of Europe." Heh.
   
   Anyway, I like vampires and I like Abraham Lincoln so I figured I'd try this one out. I wish I had liked it, but I really really didn't. Not even a little bit.
   
   Firstly, I think the elements of a mashup should offer a new way to look at each other. For instance, playing The Dark Side of the Moon over the top of The Wizard of Oz is very very cool, but it also makes you look at elements of each in a new way - that's part of the coolness, I think. I'm sorry to say that being a vampire hunter doesn't bring anything useful to my view of Abraham Lincoln nor vice versa. The two things neither complement each other nor utterly destroy each other. Added to that the notion of vampires being behind slavery and the Civil War and I found the whole thing trivializing. The thing that makes slavery horrific is that it's something that people do to each other - we don't need monsters for it.
   
   I'd like to say that the author at least managed a creative play on the Doris Kearns Goodwin style of political biography, but I can't. All told, this wasn't entertaining and wasn't enlightening and mostly just sucked.



3. This just works. Seth Smith found an uncommon thread running through Lincoln's narrative and just went nuts with it. It doesn't seem that out of place. This is like fanfiction for grownups written by a pro with just the right sense of timing. This could have gotten stupid, fast. It doesn't. Instead we get this Tolkenesque epic of the never happened life of our 16th President.
   
   There's always been an element of suspended disbelief around Lincoln. He is a mythic character; Seth builds on that. Lincoln has had so very many biographies that hit on so many obscure notes that it just makes sense that there was this hidden drama going on and no one ever suspected it. Like if you are going to turn a person into a mythic hero, don't sell it short. Lincoln didn't just eliminate slavery, he saved us all from servitude to an undead evil so great no one even knew it existed. Great stuff!



4. I was a bit skeptical at first, but this book, "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter," seemed to take two of my favorite subjects to read (history and vampires) on and place them into one book. I was not disappointed. This is the first time that I can truly say that I could not put a book down. It was fun to read and even better than that; it let my imagination run wild. I am now going to have to try some of Seth Grahame-Smith other books, which I admit do not seem to "tickle my fancy" but if written in the same way with the same zeal - I will enjoy them.



5. I had high hopes for this book which turned out to be just awful. If you want to see how to combine the high charged, dynamic elements of Abe Lincoln's life and vampires and produce BORING then read this book. No attachment to the characters or their asperations. No excitement. No humor. Nothing.

5 comments about Breaking Dawn (The Twilight Saga, Book 4).

1. Loved the books. Kids had me start them and I could not put them down. Recommend them to anyone



2. The Twilight Saga (all 4 books) are the best books I ever read. I have never had books keep me attention so fully. I ended up reading the whole series in a matter of 3 weeks. I read every chance I got. I would highly recommend these books to any female.



3. I am a speed reader and can go through books like these very fast. My talent only works with books I enjoy and get the rythm going. I got into Breaking Dawn and ground to a complete stop, thinking "Who wrote this book?". I do not think she did it, it was such a complete change of writing style. I struggled through and just put it on the shelve shaking my head. I had to get on Amazon and do my first review! I also wanted to see if others had the same thought that I did, she did not write it! I saw that time and time again in the posts. Was this book meant for teenagers? There would be no way I would ever let my teen read the 4th book! How in the world are they going to make this into a movie? It would have to be rated R. I will not go on because it has been covered nicely by the other disgruntled posters.



4. I was going to leave a long, detailed review to explain why I hated this book so much but I just can't bring myself to think about it point-by-point anymore. I agree with most of the negative comments already written. Twilight and New Moon were entertaining however my enthusiasm for the series was petering out halfway through Eclipse and completely snuffed out by the time I got the honeymoon chapter in this book. I struggled to make it beyond Bella's boring, indulgent transformation into a vampire but I realized that to finish the book meant I would first have to surrender every thing I have come to love and expect from decent writing and melt my brain. Don't read this book. In fact run from the tables in the bookstore scattered with the books and Twilight paraphernalia because the hours needed to read through this sad piece of fiction could be better spent staring at a blank wall.



5. This book seemed to start well, but tried to pack too much into this final part of the saga. Parts of the story just dragged on and on while other parts were not explained enough, and just skimmed over the details... leaving you wondering what the heck happened. I would have wished a better thought out final to this saga. Not her best!!!
