Oh, Nancy Werlin, so hit or miss. I've previously mentioned my feelings on many of her other books, but suffice it to say that her newer material is light years away in quality from her older stuff. This one was okay, the supernatural elements were thankfully toned down (they work extremely well i...
*Worum geht's?* Lucy Scarborough wünscht sich nichts sehnlicher, als ein normales Leben führen zu können. Das ist allerdings gar nicht so leicht, wenn man ständig von der leiblichen Mutter verfolgt wird, die bei der eigenen Geburt verrückt geworden ist. Doch mit siebzehn Jahren soll sich Lucys Leben...
Interesting idea for a book and I thoroughly enjoyed it. There was a very sweet love story in the book that I appreciated and found somewhat refreshing. I had the song Scarborough Fair(the version by Celtic duo Rua) running through my head the whole time I was reading it and it's still there.
One of the fascinating things about "The Killer's Cousin" is that it's a story covering multiple dimensions, even considering the tough subject matter that it takes on.

The Rules Of Survival was written as if it were a letter that was in a book format. The book follows Matt, the life he's forced...
I know three stars isn't the most helpful rating in the world, but I just feel like parts of this book were worth at least four and other parts made me want to abandon it completely. It will suit a few people's tastes perfectly, I'm sure, but I wouldn't rush out to recommend it to the masses.The sto...
Read this for book club. None of us could figure out why it had been recommended to us, or why it was nominated for awards. I don't think there has ever been another selection for our book club that was so universally disliked. Reasons: *Offensive, retrograde, disturbing implications for the young w...
After reading Nancy Werlin’s book Impossible, I was immediately enthralled by her writing. She writes in this really magical way that feels like you’re being hypnotized or something. And since faeries are one of my favorite topics, I was so eager to read Extraordinary.The premise of this book was si...
