review 1: While some of the stories immediately captured my attention, some of the stories left me slightly bewildered as they often relied heavily on the style or the content of the story they were parodying in order to be clever or creepy. Is the fact that I didn't enjoy some stories as ...

review 1: I really liked the concept of this book. Essentially, this is simply a compilation of short stories of the same genre by various authors. Pros: if you get bored easily when reading, this book is ideal because you can just read one story at a time; there are various styles of writ...

review 1: I enjoyed this book, mostly because I love the whole aspect of paranormal romance or comedy, etc. This book had quite a bit of it too! Only thing I wish would've happened were that the stories were lengthened, it seemed like as soon as I started getting really into the story, and...

review 1: Oh this was GOOD. Irial/Nial/Leslie are one of my favorite polyamorous trios in fiction and both of these short stories give you glimpses of their lives inbetween books. They also let you know that Irial and Nial have been having contact with Leslie, regardless of their protests ...

review 1: I figured out my problem with this series. The plot and story is good. I like the concept, the politics, the conflicts, the idea of the faerie world...the problem is the characters. They all lack development. Everyone feels bland. And the way they are written...I feel no connecti...

review 1: I gave this one for stars because there was no boring Ash in the book at all! Very nice! Devlin and the rest of the characters are very interesting and complex in this series. I especially love the relationship between Niall and Irial. I also like that Marr creates these complica...

review 1: This was a good ending to the series. I finally didn't feel so swamped by all the different character stories because they came together in this book with a common purpose.I still can't say I'm feeling any love for Keenan, I'm glad he made his final decision, but whatever his mot...

review 1: Of the fae, when a mortal touches Gancanagh they become obsessed and begin to wither away from want. That's pretty much how I feel about the Wicked Lovely series.In retrospect, these books were ridiculously unnecessary, but I loved them. When I finished Ink Exchange I wasn't re...

review 1: I am really into short stories at the moment and I'm not sure why. Maybe just because I don't have the focus to lose myself properly in a book right now. Whatever the reason, this anthology brought a good variety to the table.Hearken by Veronica Roth- if I'm honest, the chance to...

review 1: I'm not really one for Anthologies. I usually like a story that I can sit down and read for a few days instead of just one short sitting. But I think giving this one a try when it first came out was a good idea because all the stories in this anthology was perfect.Although a few ...

review 1: I really enjoy that Melissa Marr creates a world full of characters, and instead of brushing over them they are really fleshed out and given their own space and stories. So, I was glad to get to know more about Ani, and see the balance of power begin to really shift.Seeing more o...

review 1: This anthology of fantasy stories about half stories set in the world’ the author created in ‘Wicked Lovely’, using characters from that story. Some show back story, some things that happened after the last of those books, some are things that took place off stage. The other half...

review 1: In this second graphic novel the storyline finally becomes more interesting because we learn tiny scraps of information about Shy. His character has such potential just like Rika's and I want more!! I want to know more about the fox faeries, the little bit we learn is very intere...

review 1: Indubbiamente meglio di Danze dall'inferno, se non altro le storie sono tutte in qualche modo autoconclusive, e non ho provato per nessuno dei protagonisti un'incredibile voglia di prenderli a ceffoni. Purtroppo però in praticamente tutti i racconti si trovano amori adolescenzial...

review 1: Like its companion "Prom nights from hell", this anthology collects 5 short stories with a common theme: love. The results are all quite good -within the YA range- with one exception: sorry Mr Westerfeld but your story didn't do much for me!In all honesty, you only need to buy it...

review 1: sooo...have to admit that this would be the lest favourite of the 'hell' books so far.'Sleeping with a spirit', was basically about a girl who had warped dreams with a ghost. It's an interesting idea -- sad -- but I did enjoy it. I'd give it a 3/5 stars.Scott Westerfeld wrote an ...

review 1: This (parts one and two together) was 35 pages long. Luckly, I knew this going in, or I would have been very angry. This is a short story published only in e-book form(originally released in two parts)that fleshes out what happens to Leslie after the end of Ink Exchange. As you'...

review 1: Another piece from Marr that helps to tie up a number of loose ends in the Leslie/Irial/Niall storyline. It's a short piece -- only 35 pages or so -- but captures more of the "love story" that was really a driving part of Ink Exchange and (less so) Radiant Shadows. A little under...
