I loved this book. It's a quick read, although not necessarily an easy one. I'm not usually squeamish, but the author got me good with a few of his descriptions - this is not for the faint of heart. There's also quite a bit of swearing, which didn't bother me but might be a problem for some. Ther...
Thematically rather heavy-handed, but that is possibly the only complaint I could come up with about this Chuck Wendig's Blackbirds. The rest is just affirmative nods on the quality of this excellently cinematic story. I don't want to label it as an urban fantasy, because a lot of urban fantasy stor...
I waited so long to read this and now that I'm done with it, I don't know why I deprived myself.Blackbirds is interesting. It kept me captivated. Miriam is a foul mouthed [I can relate] and complex character. Her inner monologue [which isn't quite so "inner"] is hilarious and the snark is like nothi...
Had some good laughs while reading this book, though I think the swearing may be a bit too much at some points. I don't usually mind "bad words", but when one hand isn't enough to count the fucks and shits and bitches on one page, it gets old fast.Miriam is... an interesting lead. Reviewers praise h...
As seen on Stumptown Books.Miriam Black is an unrepentant sinner. She cusses, smokes, spits, drinks, lies, cheats, steals, and sexes her way across the country. She also happens to have a super power.By touching someone's skin, she can tell when they are going to die, as well as the cause of death, ...
I read this in one sitting.Blackbirds is the kind of book I was looking for. It had been so long since I found a good read that had me on the edge of my seat screaming at the pages like I do the TV screen. This book was it. I wanted to super glue it to my hands because I didn't want to put it down. ...
Wow. Just.... Wow.Gritty, dark, disgusting, incredible, wild, imaginative, sadistic, brutal, and all over amazing. I would TOTALLY go see this in the theater.4 or 4.5, full review to follow.
I LOVED this. I read the whole thing in less than 24 hours (even with [not enough] time to sleep/eat/take care of the younglings) and was NOT HAPPY when it was over. Why was I not happy? Because I wanted to keep reading! Luckily, I have the eARC of Mockingbird on my reader already and I will pro...
I enjoy Wendig's blog, and knew going in to Blackbirds that it would likely contain a lot of profanity. I don't think I was expecting quite as much as there actually was...This was a little outside of what I normally read, it was a lot more violent and there was a lot more...well gross stuff, for la...
