I loved this book. I'm sad it took me so long to pick it up. I finished the whole thing in a day. I love me some of the guard. the Prince is nice and all but until he stands up to his father or becomes king then he isn't really with her time.

I found myself surprised so many times in this book. I enjoyed the characters so much.. and they were amusing and funny. These are a collection of short horror stories but honestly they amused me so much I didn't feel as if it was scary but then something would happen and I'd think.. oh.. theres the horror lol. it was awesome and im glad i got to review it

Short but sweet, naughty and nice, and sooooo funny, Tiffany Reisz has done it again. A brilliant read for an afternoon, and it's really easy to get along with that its as if you already know the characters.

Such a thoughtful wedding pressie from a character from another book ( sorry, i am not giving it away ;-))

I love the Bell hop, I think I might need more of him x

I had the advantage of not having read this book, so I was able to go into the series with completely fresh eyes, and I enjoyed it very much. David Tennant is a terrific demon. Michael Sheen has some truly funny moments. I could have used more Jon Hamm. "I'm the archangel fucking Gabriel" was one of my favorite lines of the entire series. Overall a fun show!

I'm debating whether to get Prime just to watch this! Glad to hear it's good!

Funny and sad
Super. This novel is written with a first person childhood narration. Whilst this is problematic with regards to the authenticity of McCourts memory, you can not criticise him for his portrayal of childhood innocence. The novel is fantastic, great visual images, told from a convincing narrator, covering topics such as religion, poverty, alcoholism, hunger, death and growing up. I just loved it.

A fairly decent read. The sytle of writing makes it difficult to follow at times but nevertheless a good story line. I didn't have high hopes for this but I can say I was plesantly surprised. A rather anti climatic ending with suggestions of another book to follow but nothing.
Confusing, funny, difficult yet eye opening read offering an insight to people who struggle to identify with themselves in society.

Some funny scenes
A quite stylish Action thriller that tries a bit too hard to be an over the top comic book violent film. Plenty of ideas taken from other films to create a world for assassin's. Not a lot of depth to the story before the next set piece scene. Definitely not one trying to be taken seriously and entertaining for a watch at least once.

Eat your Heart out Drac! Sorin is back!
Before Dracula ever tasted his first drop of Blood, Sorin Owned the night. After centuries of Drenching Europe in blood, he Grew weary of the Carnage and left to discover the new world, only to be tracked down by an old enemy. Sorin survives the Attack but only by being put into a healing slumber....and wakes up 500 years later in Present day New York and that is where our adventures begins.

I found this book endlessly pleasing. Sorin is out to make New friends and he meets some very interesting characters along the way. Although he has some classic Vampire broodiness, he does not conform to the new age definition of sparkly "vegetarian" Vampires. He is unapologetically brutal to his enemies and trying to come to terms with a world he doesn't understand. It makes for a funny action packed book filled with witty one liners and funny scenarios.
It was a true page turner and I loved Every minute of it.
I really can't wait for the next book!
