I LOVED it! I read it almost all at once in a few hours - it was too good. I had a really hard time putting it down and now I have to wait for the next one :p.

If you haven't read this, you definitely should read it along with all the Fablehaven books.

So much Awesomeness!!!

She isn't fine really

I didn't't know what to expect with this book, I just got it because everyone loved it. I expected a cute love story but it wasn't. Its about a girl with attachment issues due yo abuse and neglect. Its a while since I read it but i just remember it was very good.

DNF @ 38%.

I'd struggled with this from the start. It wasn't as fun as i expected it to be, or wanted it to be. It just seemed far too serious in that third i actually read. Kari was so annoying as were most of the people in her life. I just couldnt gel with it.

Not for me

I was going to give it 3.5 stars until that bit at the end, which boosted it up half a star--just because I didn't expect it. I can't go into details without ruining it, which would be a shame because I thought it was well thought out and written.

A nice short story with slight BDSM themes.

Movie Favorite Watch

"David Fincher, man — Fight Club, Se7en, those things. This was another film that when I watched it at the time I had to watch it again, to understand it almost. I was just entranced with it. The performances were fantastic — Helena Bonham Carter, Brad Pitt, Ed Norton. I just thought it was brilliant and shot beautifully."

Table 19 I originally had down for January, but it didn't actually pop up until April... and it was nothing like I was expecting. I think I thought it was going to be outright comedy, and it was funny, but it was a little bit of romance too. A surprising find that I'm glad I watched.

Amazing

Such a page turner- never read a book of this genre before but kept me wanting to read more and more and not put it down. I loved it that much I've lent it to a couple of friends and they as loved it as much so I highly Recommend this book.

I actually enjoyed it a lot more than the first book, just because I found it a lot easier to follow. It still has the deeper philosophical elements though.
