Wow this was a thrilling and edgy ride to be a part of. Amazing writing and characters. There is nightmares, murder, love interests, romance (and a sexy romance at that), intrique and so much more in this story. The writing makes me feel as if I was a part of this story with the characters. I felt as if I was in their lives and seeing it as it was happening. I love when a writer makes me feel like that. Linda did an amazing job with this first story in this series and I can't wait to see what happens next

Cindy Gerard really does know how to write military romance. I really do love her writing but I felt like there is something missing with this series. The writing is good, I always am enraptured by the characters but it just doesn't have the quality of her other military/special ops series.
With that said, I really liked this book. I felt that it was a little slower paced but all in all, the characters were well written and the plot was interesting. I wish that it help my attention more but it was a good read.

This book was an okay read. I went into it with really no expectations so I guess an okay is pretty good.
The story telss of 2 5th grade best friends, Hazel and Jack. Jack made Hazel feel like she had a place in the world until one day he just up and changed on her. Her turnd into a jerk in the blink of an eye. The interesting part comes when reality turns to fantasy as Jack takes off into the woods on a sleigh pulled by white wolves. And of course no one sees it except Tyler, Hazel's archenemy when it comes to matters involving Jack.
The best writing comes as Hazel takes off into the woods to bring Jack home. The real world part of the story tends to drag a bit and the writing is much more simplistic. The fantasy part is the real meat of the stoey in terms of writing quality and plot.

Unfortunatly I could not finish this book, from the first line I knew I wouldn't like it and I didnt get any further then page 40, reading the blurb at the back this book really appealed to me, it was supposed be kind of supernatral, what with it being about the the keeper of the river styx and him trying to overthrow god, and I get that it is around a group of junkies but the writing style was just jumbled and scattered and most of the time it just confused the hell out of me, random little seperate sentences in the middle of the paragraph which really made no sense were put in and that did it for me I just had enough of the inane writing style and awful story telling.
But that is just my view, I am sure that kind of writing style and storytelling appeal to other people just not me.
I would not recommend it.

I read this because I'm a big fan of John Green. I love his writing style and have watched him and Hank on YouTube. I hoped Hank would be as good at writing as his brother. I was not disappointed.
This book, however, is nothing like a John Green story. The characters are in their twenties rather than their teens and the storyline is science fiction. Hank's writing style is also different, however, it is different in a good way. It is captivating, easy to understand and makes you think and feel a whole variety of things.
So, if you like John Green and want to see what Hank can do, you won't be disappointed. Likewise, if you're not John Green fan, you'll still love An Absolutely Remarkably Thing. It's a win-win situation.
The only negative? A cliffhanger. The story ends on a BIG question mark and it is unlikely we will ever find out what happened. I guess it's up to our own imaginations.
