Wow, this was a beautiful graphic novel. I fell in love with the illustration. The sepia tones with the red highlights were beautiful.

This is a good companion graphic novel to "Interview with the Vampire". I found myself fascinated with the illustrations and the quotes from the original novel. I'm glad that I bought the hardcover novel because it is going to be a book that I'm going to show off.

This was really interesting. I have been challenging myself to read things that I normally wouldn't. This picture book was hilarious. I found the mime pictures to be creative and entertaining. It was something very unique. I am glad that this was a book I picked up and flow through. I do wish that the pictures were larger. They were a little hard to read/see/enjoy on my Nook.

This book is amazing! I found myself captivated from the very first page and wanting more. I enjoyed the dual narration, mostly because it was seamless and not announced. The time jumps made for an interesting contrast in the main character's situation and personality evolution and having that only halfway through the book kept it fresh and not confusing. One of the better books I've read in a long time!

Can't complain
I enjoyed this, I don't think the story came across as it did in the book but I was thankful there was more focus on the story behind rather that the sex scenes which I think took a lot from the movies originally. Sometimes I found the acting quite awkward but I think that was part of the way the film is and how they should come across.

Mind bending and such a visual experience
I can understand why people may not enjoy this film but, I found it really captivating. By the end you 're left with more questions than answers after such a mind boggling journey throughout the film. The visuals in it are stunning and the cast is strong. I enjoyed watching this film a lot when I don't usually like sci fi films.

I've seen so many different reviews about this and I can get why people might not like it, but for someone who usually hates films like it I think it was amazing. There s 3 books in the series so I'm wondering if it will have more to come?

Maybe, but probably not since this one was not very well received.

Is it possible to add more categories to the books section? I have just added a book and found it very hard to classify it, all that fit was fiction and poetry which is not the most helpful classification. Perhaps a way to classify the book as adult or for mature audiences as well as dark romance would be helpful as just using the romance option feels very misleading. Thanks (:

I agree that fiction and poetry should be separate, and Sci-Fi and Fantasy. Historical fiction should also be a category, and there should be some sort of differentiation between the different kinds of Romance (erotica? If you don’t read it, I doubt you’d want to accidentally read about it!). I’ll have a think about others.

I don’t know what you would call this but perhaps some way to know if a book is a complete story or not. I know quite often in a series each book is about a different character within the same world, therefore each book is a complete story and you don’t necessarily need to have read the other books to still enjoy that one. I hope this makes sense (:

I could not finish this book. I hated everyone except the dog. I found the casual talk of rape and pedophilia disgusting. Even the consensual sex acts often started with the protagonist peeping on an unknowing female lead. I understand that it is horror but it wasn't scary to me. There was no suspense, no chills, no one I wanted to remain unscathed from the mysteries of the canyon.

I found this one on Netflix. It looked like it might be better than it was. I tried to get through it, I really did, but the whole thing was terrible. The acting was weak, effects were weaker. The cinematography was just, so-so and the storyline was, well, nonexistent. It's listed as a horror movie but it's so bad it was just sad. This one is NOT worth a watch.

Awful!
All I can say is this just seemed like a rubbish remake of jaws! I found the whole film extremely boring.
As Jason Statham was in the film, i thought it may be quite good as i rate him as a good actor. I was thoroughly disappointed! All I saw was an over sized shark swimming in water and occasionally attacking.
Seriously, don't waste your time!

Great series
I have been looking for a series that touched that part of me that fell in love with Anita Blake without all the sex scenes and I found that with this series! Jane is a strong female character that kicks butt and asks questions later! This book has her as rogue vampire hunter that takes on a job working for the very species she hunts!
