I really enjoyed this book! I couldn't put this book down one night I even caught myself reading it at 6am with one eye open.I think the writer put an interesting story together out of lets say rumors from the past.For myself I dont care if she of mixed ethnic origins or not.I personaly think most of us are in the end.The author gave life to a great bunch of people that surrounded the queen at the time.I even found myself laughing at some of the comments made by them.Only thing I think I would change is I would have liked a little more of the queens views on how she felt about the things going on and about being different with her unusual looks.I would love the author to write more on her after she became the queen.Fingers crossed for another book mulatto queen the later years.Well a girl can hope lol

April 21, 2012I received this book from the Early Reviewer and it was the first one so I was really nervous about reading it. Fortunately it grabbed me from the start. I realized from the first page that this was going to be something completely different than what I have ever read. The characters are completely down to earth and realistic (well except for the vampire part and the magic part). The main character brings to light just how screwed up life can be an how sometimes you just want to give up but can't because there is always something that needs to be done or someone who needs you, but in the end you realize it makes you a better person and that you need to accept who you are (or what you are). I cannot wait to read more from this author!

I know it cannot be, but I feel like I am the only one in the world now searching out the works of H.M.Tomlinson, the British writer and journalist (1873-1958). London River is his lyrical, gritty reportage of the lost world of the docks of London in the age of sail and the early years of steamers and tramps. It is marvelous to delve into, to savour and re-read. He reminds me a lot of Joseph Mitchell and they covered a lot of the same ground, though continents apart. Just about everything he wrote is out of print, though London River is available as an ebook as is Old Junk and, most highly recommended, The Sea and The Jungle. I've found several first editions online.

I can certainly see how this book was quite a (disagreeable) shock to anyone who expected to find a variation on the Lord of the Flies. Whereas that sociological exegesis required one to look outward, this purely psychological study requires an unrelenting introversion.[return][return]A fascinating investigation into the core of the individual. Take that individual, strip him of Civilization and of Culture, minimize sensory distraction and force humanity to look at its naked self; the resultant reality is quite disturbing-a greedy maggot clinging to existence. This is a book of raw sensations, pure (disorientating) phenomenological verse.

Claire manages a return to her lover Jamie (this isn't a spoiler per se; it's on the back cover of the book). Fleeing the turmoil and politics of Scotland two decades after the defeat of Bonnie Prince Charlie at Culloden, Claire and Jamie end up in the West Indies, where Claire faces an old frenemy. The voyage and destination give Ms. Gabaldon the excuse to insert pirates, vodoo, and a virtuous chance for Claire and Jamie to free black slaves.[return]Again, not a terrible book. Fast, bouncy, readable romance.

A very quick, but not easy, read. It's horrible and heartbreaking the things that Precious Jones goes through, but her desire to push through is inspiring. The writing style does make it a bit difficult to read at times, but I do understand why it is written in this way. I do wish the ending did a little more to wrap things up and show if Precious finally did get the better life she was working so hard toward.

Nice connecting short story to the series. Ash & Puck are at it again together. Even though they are enemies they are working together to get into the Summer Court - Arcadia to gather up a human child that Queen Titania had stolen from the Exile Queen Leannsidhe to return her, they are forced into this by a promise Prince as made to Leannside on behalf of the now Iron Queen Meghan.

Molt trist per貌 al mateix temps 茅s el reflexe actual de la vida de moltes fam铆lies que no en tenen ni per menjar.

This philosophical YA science fiction novel by a New Zealand author has some interesting ideas and a killer conclusion, but I found the framing story irritating. I'm sure it would have appealed a lot to the teenage me, though.

Katie and Owen end up with lots of obstacles in their path to romance in this outing of the book. It's a good sturdy addition to the series, but not an ending I liked. Hopefully, in the next book things will be better.

This book is suggested by "The Dangerous Book for Boys". It is a good suspense, chase book. Good for boys who don't want to read or fear reading larger size books.

A gripping tale of techno-terror!

This book is a reasonable, if unspectacular, introduction to set theory and set operations. It is suitable for undergraduate level mathematics.
