This is the weirdest, most ridiculous book I'ver ever read or even heard of!It's bad, it's so incredibly bad and absurd that it becomes awesome again.After reading the synopsis I thought "Wow, that woman had to be on drugs! This sounds awful and so, so, so bad! Venomous killer unicons? C'moooon! Thi...
Rampant by Diana Peterfreund is not a light read, nor is it for the faint of heart, but it is highly enjoyable nonetheless. I have to admit that I was feeling kind of dubious about it, despite all of the praise it’s received. I wasn’t sure how writing a story about unicorns in modern times would r...
I wanted to love this one--because the premise is definitely shiny. But the narrator's voice never felt natural, authentic, or consistent and completely failed to work for me (plus I didn't like Astrid as a character). The side cast--in particular the MC's cousin, Phil--were entertaining and the sto...
The "killer unicorns" premise didn't do much for me, so I was surprised to enjoy this as much as I did. I veered between liking and wanting to slap the protagonist, but I never doubted her authenticity as a real, live teenage girl. The secondary characters, sadly, are numerous enough that few are de...
I loved the concept, of killer unicorns, and the interweaving of mythology, legends and history, but I was not as keen on the actual story and characters. If this were a stand alone novel, not nearly enough took place and for a series, I just don't care enough about these girls to keep reading.
I'm sure that unicorns were as much fixture in many young lives of my generation as they were in mine. I was traumatized at the age of five by my first movie, The Last Unicorn, I read The Little White Horse avidly, I had a sister who was addicted to all things equine, my mother's needlework included...
When I was little, every night I'd go outside with my dad and little sister to wish on a star. Every night my sister wished for a horse. Every night I wished for... a unicorn. Back then, I couldn't think of anything I wanted or needed more than a unicorn. Granted, I'd never met Diana Peterfreund's u...
I just don't have much to say about Rampant. Man-eating unicorns, virgin huntresses, and...I don't know. I don't know if the world-building failed me, or if it was just too far out there for me to really appreciate the story. If it had been a full-on fantasy novel instead of one set in the presen...
