Stephenie Meyer

by Marc Shapiro
- Rated 1 stars
“I hated this book. The author knew absolutely nothing about Stephenie Meyer that EVERYONE doesn't already know and basically spent the whole time going on about how awesome Twilight is. Plus, he suggested that Vampire Diaries fans were just imagining the fact that it was printed before Twilight and that LJ Smith stole the idea from Stephenie Meyer. HELLO? I bought my copy of The Vampire Diaries in the early '90's, asshole. I think I know when it was printed. If anyone stole ideas maybe he needs to look at Ms. Golden Girl Meyer. This book actually put me OFF Stephenie Meyer. Only a real Twihard (or Twitard as the case may be) would get any enjoyment from this book. ”

Any Given Doomsday

by Lori Handeland
- Rated 4 stars
“The great thing about a book that shows up out of nowhere is that you have no expectations. I wasn't sure what I would think when I read the blurb but I found that I got into it very quickly. I can't wait for the next book now! ”

The Modern Witch's Spellbook

by Sarah Lyddon Morrison
- Rated 0 stars
“There are a few things in this book that I find very interesting. There are more things that make the hair on the back of my neck stand up. If you're interested in this book I would advise you to remember that you can be a witch without being a Wiccan. Too many people today make that mistake. Witchcraft outdates Wicca by a ridiculous amount of time so don't go around spouting off about the morality of the author. That being said, I would not reccomend this book for a beginner Wiccan because they might not have come to grips with their own ethics yet and may not be able to disregard the older, more dangerous spells presented.”

Dark Reunion

by L. J. Smith
- Rated 2 stars
“The lowest rating any LJ Smith book will ever have. It was just WRONG. It didn't matter that the series would have ended on a downer because it would have been true to the characters. Bringing Elena back was a disgrace.”

Beyond the Highland Mist

by Karen Marie Moning
- Rated 4 stars
“Writers don't always pull off hot & steamy at the same times as hopelessly romantic. Karen Marie Moning can. ”

A Tale of Two Cities

by Charles Dickens
- Rated 1 stars
“I'm going to have to come back to this one. I tried to read it but kept going back on myself. I found Dickens extremely witty-bordering on sarcastic-but had difficulty following the story.”
