An epic morality tale that questions whether beauty and kindness of spirit are more than skin deep. With singing bric a brac to lighten the mood.

"This is an incredibly powerful book. Once I started reading it, I had to go on reading until dawn. The author is so much in pain, his pain virtually gets under your skin as you read. For a know it all, I have surprised myself for having learnt so much from this book about us women. It was a humbling experience."

Atmospheric Masterpiece
A spooky psychological suspense/horror film that will draw you in and get under your skin. Set in the famously huge Danvers asylum, which has been closed for years, we start with a 5-guy asbestos clean-up crew charged with making the building safe for renovations. We end with...something else. Just watch! And probably rewatch because it begs for it.
  
The plot was okay, but almost all the characters made my skin crawl. The main character was only okay. The family of suspects were actually rather creepy. I have a feeling the author was going for funny, but it missed the mark for me.

"When you are put down by the larger society and there’s a poet who compares the color of your skin to chocolate and brown sugar, you fall for it, because you need it. Paul Laurence Dunbar — who was one of the great poets of the 19th and 20th centuries — wrote about African-Americans, and he showed me the beauty of our colors and the wonder of our music."

Highly unlikable characters. (0 more)
I loved this book and thought the Audible narration was creepy in all the best ways. Unfortunately I found that I didn't care for any of the characters and would have been just as happy if nobody made it out alive at the end of the story. Probably the only book to actually get under my skin in years - so that's a major positive.

This book was so readable and completely interesting. Of course, I saw the movie first, and as is the case with most, I prefer the book now. I'm not particularly well versed in the Holocaust, so I was glad with the amount of history she included, as this was, history on trial. I was glad I ended up reading the book. IMO the Plaintiff is completely revolting and makes my skin crawl.

Slay Demi!
Demi has out done herself! Her vocals on this album were so powerful and well confident! I love that Demi now feels comfortable and confident in her own skin an was ready to share that with us. She got real with us about her feelings and made each song feel very personal. That is the mark of a true artist right there.
