I'm generally not a reader of comics, but I do enjoy the Marvel and DC properties on the big and small screen. So, I was interested in this one even though Bruce Banner/the Hulk is a character I'm fairly ambivalent about. This book is about his cousin, Jennifer Walters. Jen is good at her job, but...
I'm at 10% in this book, it has been torture to read. The verbal snobbery, weird phrases, waste of money, the desperate attempt by the author to make this character seem so upper class is ridiculous. I've known old money people and they were never so outlandish. Cripey, I haven't even seen bad soap ...
review I've been trying to get through this for a few months now and to be honest I'm not really enjoying it that much. It's not a bad book at all, just not to my taste.
I wanted to like this book a lot. I was so excited when I first read the summary and when I finally got it, I started reading right away. It started out good. I started tonget bored after 100 pages. I kept reading it though. I don't like dnf a book. I feel like I should finish it. This was one of th...
To give this one star is perhaps a little unfair, but that's the way I roll most times when I drop a book. The book has been edited, so it isn't one of those typo works from hell. It might appeal to someone reading this review. It's an urban fantasy chick lit. However, I think I have reached my ...
To be honest, I didn’t expect to like this book as much as I did. I thought it would be a fun read with some action and drama and some sort of crazy evil villain trying to take over the world. What I didn’t bargain for and what I was pleasantly surprised by, was how frigging hilarious it was. No rea...
4.5/5I've always loved Marta Acosta's style, and this book is not an exception. I've no clue why the publisher wanted it to be printed under a pseudonym, especially if it's a story of Milagro's best friend, but Marta republished it recently under her own name with a different cover. It's funny, ligh...
If I could give this zero stars, I would. This was honestly one of the worst books I have ever read. A banal, simpering reimaging of Jennifer/She-Hulk as a dime store Bridget Jones knock-off that delivers more Tyra Banks appearances than actual laughs. Or plot. Or logic.Full review to come, but seri...
Here is a quote from someone who gave a positive review to this book, "Don’t let the comic book beginnings fool you, this is definitely a book for a mature and decidedly female audience. This book is classic Marvel meets Sex in the City."Besides placing quote marks around "mature" and "female" this ...
