This book is, I think, a masterpiece in gothic romanticism. I came to the book with all the preconceptions about Frankenstein’s monster that I presume most people have. Lightening bringing the monster to life and the mad scientist screaming “It’s alive!” The original novel is nothing like this at …

I bought this book for about $8.00, and I wasn’t aware at the beginning that the author, Ernest Becker, was dying of cancer. My heart went out to him the minute I found out the truth.
This Book, The Denial of Death, won the Pulitzer prize in 1974, and …

I found this book in the mystery, thriller section. But its not, which still bugs me. It’s a beautiful book. It’s about family and the relationships in it. Like a strict father and a free spirit daughter. You feel like you know these characters like your best friend. But …

Pendragon swept me off my feet the first time I read it. It is so compelling that it grabs your attention from the first sentence. This book is equal to Harry Potter . D.J. McHale has outdone himself in every way possible, taking us to a world we only …

This comic is a tad on the weird side. As much as I’d love to summarize it, I have only a vague clue of what’s going on.

This book, titled: The Speed of Trust: The One Thing that Changes Everything is a very good resource book for aspiring money-makers and money-spinners and just generally enough for those of us out there who wants to strike it rich or just wanting to get grip of what business …

“Llama Llama Red Pajama” is a children’s book by Anna Dewdney. It is a fairly new book, published in 2005. I do not know whether it is the annoying writing or the artwork but for some reason I did not like this book at all.
The story shows …

I really have to be honest. This book title, Mandie and the Quilt Mystery by Lois Gladys Leppard is as cool as it can be. But on the other hand, it is much more suitable for growing youngsters. The story is very delightful and I love the …

When it comes to great graphic novels, many are quick to cite titles like “Watchmen”, “Sandman” and “The Dark Knight Returns”. Rightfully so, they are all great titles, but there is one that doesn’t get as much credit as it deserves and that is “The Life and Times …

The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins is Victorian mystery, well-written and captivating. Yes, there are some hard-to-believe coincidences in this novel a modern-day writer would not have gotten away with, as well as infallible goodness of some characters; if you can’t stomach that, don’t read the book. I …

Thus Spake Zarathustra is one of the most lyrical books of philosophy ever written. It is famous (or to some, infamous) for its assertion that “God is dead.” But of course, there is more to it than that simple statement appears to convey.
Thus Spake Zarathustra encapsulates nothing. …

She Woke Up Married by Suzanne Macpherson is something like the time when Britney Spears spent one night with her childhood friend and ended up marrying for like 24 hours only, I think. Only this time, this novel is fiction and having a bit of a difference.

Normally, I like Bram Stoker’s books and stories. I’m not sure this was the case with The Coming of Abel Behenna.
I can understand what Stoker was trying to do with this story. It’s a story about love and jealousy. Abel wins the hand of the most beautiful woman in …

Genesis of Shannara: Armageddon’s Children is the unwieldy title of the first volume of Terry Brooks latest installment. I have to admit that I had lost track of his works over the years. I had originally read the Sword of Shannara over twenty years ago when I …

I don’t think I can read this series anymore. The last few books I read were such a disappointment. It wasn’t even the plot that killed it. It’s the lack of development for the characters. What was funny and intriguing about them at the beginning, is now annoying and …

Published in 1963, “V.” is Thomas Pynchon’s first novel. He was in his early twenties when he wrote it, which probably sounds disheartening for many wannabe novelists who require years and maybe decades to find their voice.

I love reading this book. I have read it twice, in fact. A fantasy story, but nevertheless, an easy read, and makes me laugh at the cuteness of the plot, and the loveable characters. The story tells about the woman character, E-V-E; in short for Emergency …

I’m always hesitant to read books like this. I never read Marley and Me, a book that’s very similar in spirit to this one, because I ultimately know how it’s going to end. As an avid dog lover it seemed a bit masochistic to put myself through …
