I thought this was a very well written and thought out novel. It is hard-hitting in the sense that it confirms that ones memory is ever so important yet incredibly fragile. It allowed me to reflect on the things in life that I may have taken for granted.

This was a really cute (ultra) short erotic story with some likeable characters but minus a plot. This would make a great full length novel which I would be very interested in reading. It's not as filthy as the title may suggest...more of a cute and fluffy romance.

This is a ghost story about family bonds, secrets, maintaining relationships, life, and finding peace in a world of confusion. The story is fairly simple, and there are holes in it that definitely could have been filled, but it was a decent little story packed into a graphic novel.

"As for Dickens - well, yes, Great Expectations is his best novel. But, for sheer drama, nothing tops the "Tempest" chapter in David Copperfield - Steerforth's body washing ashore, and Copperfield saying "I saw him lying with his head upon his arm, as I had often seen him lie at school"."

"I wrote my thesis on this prophetic Graham Greene novel about the dangers of American involvement in Vietnam, set in the 1950s before most people knew we were operating in Vietnam at all. In a very jaded, British way, Greene points out the dangers of well-intentioned interventions."

"There is something George Saunders said in an interview that I re-read many times while writing my novel. It’s too long for here but basically: characters don’t have to be articulate to be full human beings. He does this so well and I plan on doing it well"

"This is the best novel that I have read that fulfills the desire I think many of us have to know exactly why we were put on the planet. When I get to the end of the book, I always have to read it through the blur of tears."
