I was working in the library when this book came out, and I picked it up, read the inside flap, and put it back down about sixty times, it seemed like. It’s a vampire book. I’ve never been a vampire fan, and the few great vampire books I’ve read have pretty much exhausted me of the genre, anyway. Bu...
This book is absolutely amazing! I have been debating with myself for over a year now if I should read this book or not. The synopsis sounded really promising but the book is huge and I have so little time that I was not sure if I wanted to start this book. In the end I compromised: I listed to th...
28/2 - Haven't started this yet. But I just wanted to say before I do that this sounds really COOL and I've been looking forward to reading it for weeks. It's been sitting on my kitchen bench waiting for me to finish my last disappointment of a book, Genocide of One. This screams "Read me on a dark...
There's nothing truly original about The Passage. It's tome of a read, broken up into distinctly separate stories of what is essentially a post-apocalyptic disaster story. Yet it's this that somehow makes it stand out from the crowd. The first book is the classic science gone wrong. A well meaning...
I'll give it a 3/5 because its an interesting twist on vampires in an apocalyptic setting. There is a bit too much 'I am Legend' and 'Walking Dead' to be truly unique. There were characters and stories here that I liked but overall it was just too long and rambled in places that were unnecessary. ...
Cronin tries to rewrite The Stand? But with vampires? It's got that same big sprawling feel, and I really was enjoying it quite well to begin with, but then it dropped all the characters I cared about, jumped some 90 odd years into the future, and introduced a bunch of really unlikeable, unsympathet...
I really liked this book. Although the plot is a bit jumpy you really feel the world the author is creating around you. Its well thought out - a bit complicated but I respect the creativity. The different sections of the book mostly seemed to remind me of several movie scenes I've watched in various...
Opening Line: “Before she became the Girl From Nowhere --the One Who Walked in, the First and Last and Only, who lived a thousand years—she was just a little girl in Iowa, named Amy." I wanted to give this 5 stars because it is pretty damn fantastic; the complex story, the imaginative and often be...
I'm officially giving up since I haven't touched this thing in over a month. If a story doesn't own me after reading 400+ pages then I need to move on. I hear from others that the last 20 percent picks up but I can't make it through any more of the current pacing to find out. So I'm just going to...
