trytobeoriginal (21 KP) rated The View from the Cheap Seats: Selected Nonfiction in Books

Sep 12, 2017

Let me preface this by saying that I might be biased, since I have loved everything Neil Gaiman has written. Still, I'm generally not a big fan of nonfiction, especially essays and speeches, and I have loved this. Part of that is that it is speeches and essays about reading, books, comics, and the people that made some of my favorite books and comics. There is humor, passion, intelligence, and nostalgia in almost every essay.
It took me longer to finish this than it usually would, and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

Obsessed book reviews (49 KP) rated Sex, Lust & Lingerie (Secrets And Lies #2) in Books

fantastic read

This is the second book in this series by this author. You definitely need to read book one in this series first. This book is filled with passion, jealously, lies, secrets and heartache. These amazing characters have fantastic intense chemistry between them. In this book the story starts to come together and the story between the characters is so beautiful. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.

Highly recommended series

I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

Everything this woman writes is gold. I am 21 years old and I love her books with a passion even though they are only meant for children. Something about the way she writes just enraptures me to the point that I must finish the book. Her novels are quick reads, but they keep you interested, even with their simplicity. There are no drastic twists in the straight forward plot and it tends to be a bit predictable. But her characters are very real in their actions, thoughts, and reactions to situations.

A Crime Against Passion

Another attempt by E.L. James to solve the global overpopulation crisis by putting people off the idea of having sex. More deeply uninvolving shenanigans between Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey: will he win her back? Will she be able to make him commit to a proper relationship? And why the hell should anyone else care?

Very little discernible plot; mostly resembles a blandly aspirational soap opera, or possibly commercial for kitchen design. Scenes of rumpo are occasionally unintentionally funny, never actually erotic. Fifty Shades Darker? Fifty Shades Duller, more like.
