This novel sounded really good, and as an English major I thought I would like it. It started off really well; but after chapter 3 it sort of died. I felt like she was explaining her past too much, and I just wanted to move forward with the story and learn about her past little by little. I figured I'd set it down and come back to it in a few weeks with fresh eyes, but when I did I got the same feeling. I don't have the time to spend reading books I don't get hooked on. So if you don't have the patience, this one isn't for you.

A translated French graphic novel, Clara is a little girl whose life is turned upside down. Told from her point of view, the sense of confusion is real with the reader having to work out what has happened to the little girl's life along with her and that journey tugs on the heart-strings of even the most callous reader. The gift of the doll starts off this confusion, the reader will understand the significance of the gift from an adults perspective but be wrenched by Clara's reaction to it. A good read, a good thought provoking narrative, a story that is likely to stay with you for many years.

I'm gonna start right off the bat and say I felt that this could of been one whole book instead of a series. They were all just short parts of one whole novel. But anyone, I enjoyed this book series very much. It was the right amount of erotica scenes with a real love story story line, that held up nicely. I liked the main characters Sebastian and Aria, and I liked their tragic backgrounds as well. I blew through this series in two days and I would recommend it to anyone who likes not too steamy but isn't shy about sex erotica novels.

this is the first book by this author that I've read and I wasn't disappoint one bit. I really liked everything about this book from the story, plot and characters. this book is a erotic suspense novel which will keep you hooked long into the night and leave you wanting more. this book is wrote in the third person which makes the story line flow effortlessly. this is a very steamy read mixed with lots of suspense making this a fantastic book. this is a must read book. I cant wait to read more from this author.

Premise, bold female characters, Swift pace (0 more)
A story of passion, friendship, obsession, and self-discovery
Give yourself a few hours to dip into the creative world of animation—one you haven’t likely given much thought to in the past.

This novel is rich with character details and development, while holding back as much as the characters hold from themselves.


It’s an unfolding of the creative process, of friendship and love and loyalty, with a shadow of darkness and feminism. It could have become strident, but Whitaker strikes a balance of advancing the story while leaving the reader to draw their conclusions about self-exploration and the exploitation of others.

Being a sequel, I can't say much without spoilers but a Torch Against the Night is just as good as its predecessor. We learn more about the djinn and even another world. I continue to be riveted and wish the third book was written already. I've grown to love Laia, Elias and Helene over the course of the two novels and feel for them during their trials/struggles. I was very surprised by some of the things that happened in the book, which was pleasing because that meant it wasn't formulaic and obvious. Highly recommended, but read the first novel in the sreies before you begin this one.
