This is a slightly different style of book compared to others of this series. It's a male/male romance. And as opposed to leaping into hardcore man on man sex scenes, there is a lot of focus on the emotions. Don't get me wrong, there were romance scenes involving sex acts and they were written perfectly. But the emotions portrayed in this one kept me hooked til the end and I fell in love with the two lovers in this book.

Well written, as normal. No silly errors tripping me up. Good pace. Showed back story. Brought past characters into this story and showed more character development again.

Loved it.

5/5

Would definitely suggest to friends.

I have loved the movie since it came out. I have raved about it's stunning visuals and unique story. So I finally dedicated time to read the book. I felt I was finally able to read the story without comparing the two.
I immediately loved her sass from the beginning. However, I felt there were several times throughout the story where Coraline's emotions were lost. I have read Neil Gaiman before, and it is typical that emotions are stark and factual, and not easy for the reader to find empathy.
If it had not been for the existing love of Coraline and her story, I think I would have really struggled to finish this.

This book is amazing. It's about a girl that is killed and watches her family struggle with life after her death from her own heaven. It sounds somber, but it's actually uplifting. (0 more)

Today I went to see The Promise...this movie was pretty close to the history that I was told growing up as the step daughter of an Armenian it made me saddened and proud of the culture. I was also surprised that I laughed a few times it hit me on all emotions.

it’s hard not to wish that Adele had tried something a little darker, a little more unexpected, a little funkier. For all of the tempestuous emotions swirling about between Adele’s well-enunciated vocals, 25 is disappointingly safe.

Lustful Californian trio LANY make love songs for the millennial generation. Bottling up teenage emotions and expressing it in effervescent electronica and wistful melodies, their self-titled debut is 16 tracks of minimalistic and clean compositions

I read this for a class again, and I liked it better than when I read it the first time. Since I knew when things were going to happen, I was able to prepare myself for the emotions. The ending could have been better, but oh well. It was still a good book!
  
I thought the poetry was very poignant and thought-provoking. It invoked a lot of emotions in me. I could tell that the writer was definitely speaking from her heart. The themes were a bit heavy at times though, so if fluffy poetry is what you're looking for, this is not for you.
