Laura Florand is the international bestselling and award-winning author of fifteen books, including the Vie en Roses series (Once Upon a Rose), the Paris Hearts series (All for You), and the Amour et Chocolat series (The Chocolate Thief). Amy is troubled by her inability to judge character. When a salesman in a room filled with spangled belly dancing outfits asks, "You are looking for lovely costume?" Dan responds, "Not my color! But thanks!" Later he says they should check Queen Neferfarty's tomb for a clue. And the mysterious Madrigals finally make an appearance.ĭan is as funny as ever. They run into Irina Spasky and Jonah Wizard again and meet an old friend of Grace named Hilary Vale. There are more museums - to Amy's delight and Dan's chagrin - and even the darkest depths of an ancient tomb. The nonstop action takes them to an Ekaterina stronghold and an alligator infested island on the Nile. Yes, the action starts immediately and continues right up to the destruction described on the last page. But what are spices and kitschy souvenirs compared with an ancient Sakhet, the clue that led them to Cairo, in a shop window and an old nemesis nearly killing Dan on page two?

I had tomato flavour in Imperia and it was weirdly enjoyable. What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?Īs long as it's genuine Italian ice cream I don't mind. There are so many, but I recently re-read Jeanette Winterson's Gut Symmetries, and it's such an elegant, poetic book I think every aspiring writer should read it. I'm also curious to know whether books will still exist in paper format in an hundred years' time or if they'll disappear and become collectors' items or just fine art objects. I imagine the West like Huxley's Brave New World but with the rich genetically engineered for health, youth, and intelligence and a subclass of poor, aging people with no teeth. I'd like to see the future to know whether the gap between the wealthy and the dispossessed becomes impossible to bridge. Writing historical fiction and lecturing in art history, I already spend a lot of time in the past. If you could travel in a time machine, would you go back to the past or into the future? It’s hard to know exactly how many series AMC has planned, but it has the rights to a whole lotta books beyond just Interview With the Vampire, including The Vampire Lestat, The Queen of the Damned, The Tale of the Body Thief, Memnoch the Devil, The Vampire Armand, Pandora, Vittorio the Vampire, Blood and Gold, Prince Lestat, Prince Lestat and the Realms of Atlantis, Blood Communion: A Tale of Prince Lestat, The Witching Hour, Lasher, Taltos, Merrick, Blackwood Farm and Blood Canticle.

Brought to Rome, she is pressed into service as a personal slave to hedonistic Julia Valerian. After surviving the massacre of her family and the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans, Hadassah is captured and sold to a well-to-do merchant’s family. Following the prides and passions of a group of Jews, Romans and Barbarians living at the time of the siege, the narrative is centered on an ill-fated romance between a steadfast slave girl, Hadassah, and Marcus, the brother of her owner and a handsome aristocrat. “The city was silently bloating in the hot sun, rotting like the thousands of bodies that lay where they had fallen in street battles.” With this opening sentence, A Voice in the Wind transports readers back to Jerusalem during the first Jewish-Roman War, some seventy years after the death of Christ. Listening to Tom Hanks’s narration, I felt like I was listening to Danny recount his relationship with Maeve, like it was just the two of us and he was telling me a story. They have an extraordinarily close sibling relationship that isn’t corny or saccharine. The appeal and magic of this book is the relationship between Danny and Maeve. I half expected her to offer Maeve an apple after consulting a magic mirror, but she’s content to throw them out of their home (the titular Dutch House) upon their father’s death. Their new stepmother, Andrea, is a caricature of an evil stepmother. Their mother left when they were young and their father eventually remarries. The Dutch House follows siblings Danny and Maeve over a period of decades. He “acts” the dialogue in an understated way and doesn’t use a high-pitched voice for female characters. I thought he was reading too quickly at first, even checking the playback speed, but he won me over by the second chapter. Quick note on the audiobook: Tom Hanks does a stellar job. I’ve listened to Ann Patchett’s The Dutch House twice and hate the ending as much as I love the beginning, which makes it hard to evaluate. They both bring their own mix of crazy to the table- Jude with her chucks and sassy attitude and Celian with all of his Celian ways. She is the queen of Alpha’s and can do no wrong when it comes to writing about them!Ĭelian and Jude are hands down some of my favorite characters. LJ Shen has done it again and has left me with a heck of a book hangover. It’s the reason I pick up a book about a macho, total jerk and want him to fall to his knees. This book is the reason I love reading about assholes so much. PURE ALPHA PERFECTION! If that’s not a thing currently, I am making it a thing. “Celian looks at you….like he would burn the world for you.” Shen reignites the office romance sub-genre with Dirty Headlines. When he looks at me from across the room, I see the glint in his eyes, and that makes us rivals.īut it’s my heart at stake, and I fear I’ll be raising the white flag. Heir to a stack of medical bills and a tattered couch. Now he’s staring me down like I’m the dirt under his Italian loafers, and I’m supposed to take it.īut the thing about being Judith “Jude” Humphry is I have nothing to lose. I left it with more than orgasms and a pleasant memory-namely, his wallet. I could have impressed him, if not for last month’s unforgettable one-night stand. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from Social Butterfly PR in exchange for an honest review. Reviews Review + Excerpt: Dirty Headlines by L.J. He is the epitome of an “unsophisticated person in a strange world”. The story centers around Bernardo Carpio, the protagonist, burdened with Gigantism. Despite being miles away from her native country, this first debut of hers shows that she is still proud to be a Filipino. What I liked about this book is its author, Candy Gourley, a Filipino immigrant in London, married to a foreigner. The only dissimilarity between them is that the former depicts the life of the Filipinos in an old-fashioned- modern period while the latter is steeped in the life of the Filipinos after WWII. Tall Story resembles Like A Brave Man by Nelson Carunungan, the first Filipino novel written in English that I have ever read. I grew out of the folk lifestyles, either in a province or in a modernized city: for examples, illiterate Filipinos speak “barok” English we still use a plastic beaker or a mosquito net tucked under the edge of a mat we are mad about playing basketball and we know Michael Jordan our stereotype about people working abroad is that they may be rich we are still instilled in superstitions and black magic despite the fact that we are now living in a modern era, and so on. Besides, I could relate to the story because it reflects in the Filipino customs and values, especially I used to be a “ provinciano”. This book is bittersweet, hilarious, witty, and magical although some parts are sad. |
