Review: Swoon

January 14th, 2012

Swoon is a young adult vampire novel.  When I first read the description I feared the story would be really campy, sort of like Queen of the Damned meets Twilight.  I must say my imagination ran away with me and I saw the whole movie play out in my mind. I am pleased to report after reading, no campy musical here.  I will say however, the book  kind of follows that Twilight formula, but in some respects it had an edgier feel.

There were several editing mistakes in the book, but I was able to look past them as the story captured my attention.  I became more intrigued with the character’s individual lives more so than the actual storyline.  I liked the fact that the two main characters are basically the same age and they relate well to one another.  This is in part due to similar life experiences they had as children.

Holly, the main character, was raised by her brother.  She is in her early twenties, and trying to figure out the direction she wants her life to go.  She knows what she wants to do. However, her brother wants her to makes what he feels is a more responsible choice, and she is torn between the two.  She is as a character that young adults will find relatable.

Alister is a fledgling vampire, turned a mere four months.  He is being guided in his new life by his vampire “brothers.”  He is learning to deal with his new found immortality.  He is also learning to deal with having to give up the life he planned as a mortal.  Readers will find it easy to be sympathetic toward his character.  The fact that he is a fledgling also adds a different dimension to the story.

This book is an easy read with a straightforward storyline.  There are going to be more books to follow in this new Silver Sun series.  I believe young adults will find this book worth a read.

Having been gifted vocally since childhood, Holly Greene’s sole dream in life is to make it big in the music scene as a professional singer. She resides with her successful brother, Holden…a well known author and professor of English at NYU, who is less than enthusastic towards Holly’s musical endeavours. In his attempts to suade her in an alternative direction, Holly herself comes to question whether her aspirations are admirable – or simply futile.Yet her life is altered swiftly when Holly is nearly struck and killed by a speeding golden vespa belonging to none other than a fledgling vampire by the name of Aleister Judas – or AJ, for short. Having been allusively watching her sing for some time, AJ proposes that Holly join his newly-formed band as their lead singer. Hesitant at first, she reluctantly agrees and becomes the songstress of Silver Sun. Little does she know, however, just how far their music will take them. While their sound merits the attention of top record labels that are willing to thrust the unearthly group into the lime-light, it also manages to seduce a fleet of vampires who are hell bent on exposing, and destroying them.

Pocket Review: Calling Mr. King by Ronald De Feo

November 22nd, 2011

Calling Mr. King
Ronald De Feo
Other Press, 2011

They say music hath charms to soothe the savage breast, and culture’s civilizing qualities have been the root of many a liberal arts education. In his debut novel, Calling Mr. King, Ronald De Feo takes this notion and runs with it: Can art transport us? Does it have redemptive powers? Can beauty truly liberate us from the trenches of the 9-5 world?

From Bartleby to Then We Came to the End, novels of day-job burnout have been rich ground for schadenfreude or commiseration, depending on which side of the cubicle the reader is on. For De Feo’s nearly-nameless protagonist it’s a deadly serious business. By trade a hit man, and an extremely good one at that, he finds himself in the throes of mid-career fatigue. And like any other company man who’s devoted a lifetime to honing his skills and has made himself a comfortable niche, it’s the daily grind, not the morality, that trips him up:

Odd thoughts were entering my head again. And like before I had no idea where they were coming from. Odd, crazy thoughts: another job just about done, after running stupidly about for weeks, all the tracking, waiting, time spent and wasted, and what do you get but another dead body, then on to the next hit, another city, another bastard to track, another doomed man, to be taken out by me or someone else, it really made no difference, dead is dead. The same story, the same routine. You pull the trigger, the man falls. But what if you didn’t pull the trigger? That would be different. That might even be exciting. That would change everything.

Such thoughts, however, are anathema to his line of work—anyone’s line of work, now that you mention it, although most of us would be more worried about getting laid off for them than bumped off. Still, work is work, and our antihero is ramping up to one serious job-related existential crisis.

Nameless, featureless, he has no particular identity other than his employment. We get glimpses, as the book progresses, of how he came to this calling—poverty, an uninspiring, bullied childhood with lots of guns around—but mostly he’s a blank slate. It’s his greatest asset on the job, along with his intense detachment from just about everything. He is eloquent, a little high-minded; he speaks of completing a hit on a mark as a way to “end his vacation abruptly.” But mostly he’s just your basic, affect-neutral contract assassin.

Until, of course, that stops working for him. First it’s those odd thoughts, then a near-botched job out in the English countryside. A vacation, he thinks, might be in order, though his company has not been historically warm to vacations. But the collateral damage he incurs in Derbyshire prompts the suggestion that he lie low for a while—which, in his business, is as close to a vacation as he’s going to get. They put him up in a swanky New York hotel, and he finds himself, for once, with time, rather than someone, to kill.

I surveyed the restaurant crowd—a majority of chit-chatting lady shoppers, a few men with their wives, a few tourists. Just another Saturday afternoon out. Hard to believe, I thought, but I was out for the day too. At least for now, I resembled them. This was what it was like to spend a normal, ordinary, slightly boring day. I sort of liked the feeling. I sort of liked the boredom. I sort of liked everyone remaining alive.

In addition, as a somewhat random byproduct of stalking people on the English heath, he’s developed an interest in Georgian manor houses. At first they feature in restful fantasies of where he, a chronic hotel dweller, would like to live; gradually he becomes fascinated with their architectural detail and history. He buys a reference book—quite possibly the first book he’s ever purchased—and then another, and another. Soon he’s on a familiar basis with the clerks at Rizzoli, spending time in the New York Public Library’s Main Reading Room, “a huge old banquet hall for book lovers,” and examining Constable paintings at the Frick. His slow evolution as a patron of the arts is fun to follow, especially as it doesn’t trumps his basic crudeness; his first thought, on reading of Paris’ Place des Vosges, is that he recently killed someone near there. But he’s learning the language as he goes—of architecture, of art, of how to be a feeling man in an unfeeling world. All this from a fellow whose idea of personal growth, thus far, had been to become a better shot:

I liked these a lot. None of the heavenly crap that filled the wop paintings. The Dutch were definitely more down-to-earth. Trees, dirt roads, streams, cottages, water mills, windmills, a horse and cow here and there. They were peaceful pictures, showing country areas you wouldn’t mind living in. Of course, I preferred a somewhat more elegant country life, and the trees were too big and the shrubbery too wildfire my taste, but if you were Dutch and weren’t loaded with cash, this kind of existence wasn’t half bad.

Fortunately for us, though, he never loses his native petulance. Wandering around New York with his art books under his arm, he brings to mind an overgrown Holden Caulfield gone very, very bad, which is a good thing. For all its intermittent bloodshed, this is not an action-packed novel, and it couldn’t survive its protagonist’s transformation into an exemplary man of culture. We need his rough edges to keep things unpredictable, and fortunately De Feo never falls back onto easy epiphanies for him. Our man may be ready to get out of the business, but it’s not due to any particular dawning ethical consciousness. He just wants to look at more architecture.

Eventually his employers call him back to work, however, with a hit in Barcelona, and he’s forced to choose—not so much between his baser and better selves, but between work and Gaudí. It’s a reasonable dilemma. And after dawdling through the streets of the world’s capitals and puzzling out what, exactly, the aesthetic world has to offer, De Feo gives us a satisfyingly architectural ending. This is a strange, dark, funny book—in that order, I think—and his begrudgingly solipsistic narrator is one of the odder antiheroes I’ve come across. But Calling Mr. King is an interesting little meditation on the redemptive powers, or not, of art, and for those of us who spend our time reading novels in the first place, it’s not a bad thing to consider.

Review: The Vampire Journals

November 14th, 2011

The Vampire Journals is a young adult series.  The first four books in the series are:

1) Turned

2) Loved

3) Betrayed

4) Destined         

 

I will start off by saying that I liked the premise of these books.  In the first book, Turned, we met Caitlin.  Caitlin is the main character of the series, and is a half- breed vampire.  There is about to be a vampire apocalypse and she is the chosen one.  I also liked the idea of the good vs. bad vampires and their various vampire clans.  Although the story is different, I could see some parallels to the Twilight books.

 In the first two books, Turned and Loved, I wish Rice had given us more description and detail.  The story takes place in several locations and settings.  I wanted to see more details about the cities the characters were in, and their surroundings.  There were times it seemed as if the author was trying to get from point A to point B too quickly, so some of the scenes felt clipped short.  I realize that it is necessary to save some revelations for other books in the series, but I needed elaboration in the things already revealed.

Betrayed, the third book, got better.  All of the elements of the story began pulling together nicely.  The action sequences were the highlights of the book.  Also, the main character started to grow up and become more confident as she discovered her power.  This made her character more likeable.

 The last book I read was Destined. This book takes place in a different time period and country.  The descriptions and details were improved compared to the first two books.  The first part of the book moved a little slow for me, but picked up significantly by the end.  The ending sets up for a fifth addition to the series.

This series, in my opinion, will appeal more to teens.  It does have romance, but if you are looking for the really hot and steamy scenes you won’t find them here.  The first four books are relatively short, coming in at less than 200 pages each, so they do make for a quick and easy read.

Review: The Vampire’s Madam

November 7th, 2011

Janna Cutting is a madam in a Victorian brothel who finds herself in love with Hugh de Troyes, a weekly visitor who sees another of her girls who doesn’t appreciate Hugh at all. This spurs Janna to play voyeur one night to witness Hugh fondling and biting a girls neck, confirming Janna’s suspicions that Hugh is a Vampire. But instead of this repulsing her, it turns her on, leading her to pleasure herself while in her hiding spot. The next week, Janna makes sure she is the only one available for Hugh, and she finds out that Hugh has wanted her all along, that he knows all about her and the hurtful things being said about her because of her mixed Indian heritage.  He also admits that he has never slept with any of the other women; it was her he wanted all along. This book was well written even though it was short.  This is an Erotica book, but the romance shines through and I was rooting for the two to have a happily ever after, and I admit I wanted Hugh myself by the end of the story!

5 stars  Erotica/Paranomal

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yet, week after week, he treats her as nothing more than the proprietor of Keya House.

Fueled by jealousy, Janna decides to play voyeur during the handsome Frenchman’s visit. What she witnesses leaves her aroused beyond endurance and privy to the knowledge that Hugh is far from satisfied. He deserves a woman willing to see to all his needs, a woman willing to bleed. Janna is that woman, but failing to convince Hugh might leave her with a wound far greater than any his fangs could inflict.

Review: Viridis – A Steampunk Romance

November 3rd, 2011

This book is not the paranormal fare I usually read. I found it while browsing the freebies on my reader, and the title caught my attention.  Having read a couple of other steampunk inspired books, I found myself a fan.  I decided to give this book a try, and was not disappointed.

The first thing I want to comment about is editing.  The last couple of books I read have been plagued with editing errors.  This is fast becoming a huge pet peeve for me, as it distracts from the story.  For me, Viridis, was a breath of fresh air.  It was well edited, and I was able to fully submerse myself into the story.

This tale takes place in 1866 London. I was pleased with the way Taylor incorporated the steampunk elements into the novel. It was very easy to get a feel for the era in this book, the author giving just enough information on the time and place, without over-embellishing details, making the book a smooth and easy going read.

Although I enjoyed all of the story’s characters, Phoebe was my favorite.  She is the character the book centers around.  She is strong, independent, and intelligent.  She is pretty much unconcerned with what is deemed proper for her time, and this leads to her share of problems!

This novel is both romance and mystery.  It works very well, one element of the story does not overtake the other, and they intertwine nicely.  This is just book one of the series and I can honestly say that I would read the next one.  Even if you are not a fan of steampunk or the Victorian Era don’t discount this one. The romance and mystery alone make it a good read!

Review: Flesh Fantasy

November 1st, 2011

Maya DeLeina’s Flesh Fantasy was such a fun and sexy read that I read it from start to finish in one sitting. Written in a journal style from both Rain’s and Ryhs’s points of view, we’re given a unique look into their human/vampire relationship. The story is filled with a supporting cast of characters all as deeply developed and focused, and each vampire has a unique ability that brings something special to the story.

While this book is an erotic paranormal romance, it’s so much more than a sex fest with a bit of a story to back it up. This book is a steamy story of sensual fantasies come to life, boundaries bent and broken, and family loyalties that will last an eternity. Throw in some hot vampires, sexual spider webs, and humorous banter and you have yourself just about the perfect vampire book. Any lover of vampire romance should run out now and pick up this book. You will be hooked from the first chapter.  While Rain and Rhys are the focus in Flesh Fantasy, I quickly became attached to the other characters and certainly hope to see them in their own books soon!

Review: Love For a Vampire

October 30th, 2011

Angel-May Black has been locked in a room for 16 years, a prisoner of her own father. He’s never been a loving person and has beaten her on a regular basis for as long as she can remember. The only thing she can do to make it stop is to wait until death claims her. But fate has something else in mind for Angel. She has to hold on until the day she turns eighteen, then she will be rescued by a vampire and a shape-shifter who are hired by her grandmother she never knew she had.

But even then her life isn’t safe, when everyone around her has their own agenda. Are they really helpful or do they mean her harm too?

Angel is very young when her mother dies and since that moment she is the prisoner of her violent father. The only things bearable for her are her “dreams” in which she meets a young handsome man and sometimes a familiar woman. Are they glimpses from her future or are they just dreams?

Angel’s connection with her rescuer, Zared, is huge although he cannot understand why. He is hired to save her from her father and make sure she arrives safely at her grandmother’s, but her soul is calling to him. Angel knows her future depends on him, so she has to convince him to keep her close.

Love for a Vampire, by Wendy Huchison, is the first novel in a trilogy and I have to say it’s well written. When I read the book description, I was interested and very curious to see what this book was all about. The first few chapters are heavy stuff and I did have some doubts about reading further, but I’m glad I did.

My hands itched when I read the scenes of the abuse. How can a father treat his daughter that way, beat her up till she bleeds? No, I didn’t feel any love for that man.

Angel and Zared are fabulous characters and you’re going to love them when you’re further into the book. Their journey isn’t without danger and their growing relationship will be tested every step of the way.

I’m dying to see more of them in future novels. I know there is more between Angel and Zared then we see in this book. Who or what is Madoc? I hope to find that out in the next novel, too.  I’m definitely going to look out for her next novel, hopefully that won’t take too long.

Review: Celtic Lust

October 18th, 2011

Cassidy has three chances to make a love life for herself, but she has to choose which one will make her happiest. This isn’t the best way for a girl to spend her time, but immortality can get a little boring when she has only herself for company. One man is good for her – Daniel, while the other, Ash, might not be, even though she is tied to him, in body, blood and soul. She doesn’t care enough for Ash since he forced the blood tie on her without her consent; she feels she only has one chance at love and that is with Daniel. She always felt right around Daniel, but the intense link to Ash can serve to confuse her heart sometimes.

As a vampire, Cassidy does not want to spend an eternity alone, so she has to make a decision or she will have to surrender to her fate and be stuck with Ash. It could be a long time, though, and as she hasn’t found the kind of love with other men that she has with Daniel.  She must open her heart to the possibility that if she does choose Daniel, Ash might take great exception to it.

Even though she is a vampire, she is still having problems with men in the way humans do, with basic issues that involve trust, love and jealousy. She is more human than she thinks. I liked the way she handles her situation, and she isn’t far removed from any woman on the street in the way she feels.

She desires a man she can trust, one who will look after her interests, not just his own like Ash would. She thinks it could be a tall order, but all she needs to do is follow her heart, yet it is more complicated than that. Due to her being bound to Ash, she can’t get with another man, not even Daniel, or so she thinks.  Daniel surprises her and wants nothing more than getting the binding to Ash undone. It felt good to me as a reader as it gave Daniel’s character some real spunk that he needed and Ash was formidable as his opposite.

The Irish link that is part of the title gave the novel an uplifting feel even when there were tense moments in the story. This is one author not to be missed.

From Amazon.com

Cassidy Elliott found herself torn between two worlds. The one in which she was currently living and the one in which she was desperately trying to escape.

No correction she found herself torn between two men. One man she desperately found herself needing and longing to spend an eternity. And one to which she was forced to open her heart, mind, body and soul to. Everyone always assumes a vampire has a choice in which way they live the here after.

Well my friend you soon will see how very wrong you are to assume we are in control of our own destiny, no matter who we are.
