This novel really does an incredible job showing the differences between Norma and Norman. I loved reading the novel and seeing what Bloch originally set out to do. The movie is very very similar to the novel going so far as to have some of the exact dialogue that was in the novel in the movie. When reading the descriptions of characters I thought it was funny to see how Hollywood changed them to be different. I loved reading this book and I recommend it to anyone who loves the movie and even those who haven't watched the movie!

I expected more from the characters considering this is part of a series, they should have been more developed. It was a nice, quick, easy read and I did enjoy it for that and for the romance. I liked Zach more than any of the other characters in the novel, though I did have a problem with two sub plots in the novel that really went nowhere whatsoever. It kept my interest on a nice, relaxing day but otherwise it was very plain.

The characters were well thought out and I loved both Sean and Dani! I was surprised by a lot of the events in the novel and I loved that Sorenson was able to keep me on my toes throughout. The beginning was a little slow for me but otherwise I really enjoyed this quick read!

Having read the first five issues way back in the day when Spider-Gwen originally started, I wanted to do a little re-fresher of the first couple of issues before I started where I left off. Some of the issues I had little problems with but overall I did enjoy re-reading these before jumping into volume one!
Oh God, this book. Oh God, this trilogy! I bawled my eyes out for the entire Epilogue and I'm not even sorry. This book was everything I wanted it to Oh God, this book. Oh God, this trilogy! I bawled my eyes out for the entire Epilogue and I'm not even sorry. This book was everything I wanted it to be and more, it was things I hadn't have even thought it could be! I have fallen in love with The Infernal Devices! I love Will, Jem, and Tessa as if they were my own friends, my own family. I loved the way this ended, it was the perfect conclusion to the trilogy! My emotions are everywhere right now and I am loving every second of it. Cassandra Clare, thank you for this trilogy, thank you for this book, I am eternally grateful!

I was wrong. I loved this book! Lockhart tells the story in such a unique way that kept me guessing throughout. Every single time I thought I knew what was going on or what was going to happen I ended up being wrong and my theories were completely throw out the window. The character are incredible, the story is unforgettable, it is clear Lockhart is here to stay and I love her for it!
I am shaking as a write this because that is how strongly this book affected me and how much I loved it. I think there is truly something beautiful toI am shaking as a write this because that is how strongly this book affected me and how much I loved it. I think there is truly something beautiful to the way John Green tells a story, it's raw and it's real. I personally, was not a fan of The Fault in Our Stars, but Paper Towns and Looking for Alaska are two of my favorite novels, this novel surpassed them both! I have never been so overcome with emotion after finishing a novel that I am physically shaking but here I am. It is beautiful, Aza is beautiful, the story he is telling is beautiful. I hope everyone gets to experience this story for themselves!

I thought I had enjoyed Stalking Jack the Ripper but it was nothing compared to how much I enjoyed Hunting Prince Dracula! I am so sad that the third book isn't out already and that I have to wait to go on more adventures with Audrey Rose and Thomas! This book kept me guessing right until the very end! I loved everything about it!

I found parts of it to be predictable and while that isn't always a bad thing, it did make me not enjoy the book as much as I enjoyed it's previous two. I will always love Lara Jean, she has quickly become one of my favorite characters in a YA romance novel. I would actually really enjoy a follow up book about their first year of college... I can dream can't I?!?

When they said there would be a sequel I thought that was a horrible idea and it would be awful, they proved me wrong. When I found out there was going to be a third book I had the same thought process and once again, Danielle Vega has proved me wrong! This book is a prequel to The Merciless and is about Brooklyn. I thought it was amazing and I was completely glued to the book from page one!

I finished this book on the train ride to where I was going it was that good! I have so many thoughts on this novel and honestly, I still have a book hangover from it but when I can finally put all my thoughts together, this novel is getting one hell of a review!
Everyone always asks me why I make it a point to finish every singe book I start and this book was the pure example of why I do so. You never know wheEveryone always asks me why I make it a point to finish every singe book I start and this book was the pure example of why I do so. You never know where a book is going to go. When I started this book I was so disappointed, I hated Scarlett, I thought she was the worst main character I had read in a long time, and 100 pages in I was ready to give up on one of my most anticipated reads of the year. I am so glad that I didn't! This book was beyond amazing, the twists and turns it took surprised me to the very end, and for the record I ended up loving Scarlett by the end of the book! With one of the biggest cliffhangers I have experienced in a long time, I cannot wait for the second book!

I don't read much historical fiction or history books in general but after having listened to Hamilton I picked up three books on Alexander Hamilton. This one was specifically about him and Eliza. I throughly enjoyed it! There were some moments that I thought could have been written better but overall this was a wonderful read!

I know everyone has their own opinions but as for mine the twists she came up with to re tell her own story were incredible! I cannot believe how much I enjoyed this. Compared to the original, I believe this is even better!!

I loved Audrey! I have been reading a lot of books lately with badass female leads and I am loving it!! Audrey is everything I could have wanted the main character in this book to be and more. To be honest she reminds me a lot of one of my other favorite female heroes, Buffy Summers! I loved Thomas! I loved the world Maniscalco created for her characters. I even loved the way Maniscalco created the set up for the next book. I cannot wait to read Hunting Prince Dracula now!

From the moment I started this book I was sucked into it. The world that she has created is amazingly insane! I love everything about it! I'm kind of sad to hear that this is only a duelology for that reason. I could keep reading about Kate and August for the rest of my life and be a very happy woman!! Wow! Just Wow!

The idea of this book seemed really cool and I wI have not given a book a one star rating in a long time, a very long time, but this one deserves it. The idea of this book seemed really cool and I was really into it, except there was one problem with it... the book description did not fit the actual book! I was going into this book based off the back of it expecting something completely different than what I actually got. Aside from that it was cliched. It wasn't good. There was insane foreshadowing that made the "twists" predictable. I had several ideas in my head of how this book could have been made better, things I wanted to happen instead of what actually happened. I didn't find any of the characters like-able and the killer's motives were stupid.
Overall I do not recommend this book. Longer review coming soon. ...more
