I think I would rate this 4.5 Stars, but my mind is all screwed up right now. So I may come back and change my rating, but I really liked this....Is that morbid since so many people gruesomely die?
This book was a huge back and forth with me. Sometimes I despised it, sometimes I loved it; sometimes I wanted to give it one star and sometimes I wanted to give it four. Although this is a pretty famous film, I’d never seen it, so I was able to go into reading this for the Underrated Bookers group ...
I ended up liking this a lot more than I thought I would! It took me awhile to really get into it, though. I generally am not a fan of translations, there's always that something missing, you know? But I'm glad I read this. If you like thriller, adrenaline and graphic violence (and, trust me, it's g...
2.5 starsBattle Royale has an interesting concept and the plot is extremely fast-paced. From the very beginning, it keeps the action pumping and doesn't let out until the very end.The events the students had to go through were horrifying and I honestly can't imagine what I would do if thrown into a ...

Jesus Christ I wonder if I can complain to this tired whore's pimp to get the time and money I spent on it back. Why, yes, I do believe that the analogy of Battle Royale being a badly performing whore IS an appropriate one, and I will take it one step further. This book is a whore who has a sterli...
As ebooks always have funky pages I can't say for how long the book was boring, 60 pages perhaps. So very boring. If this had not been a Scoundrel book then I would have given up long before. So I read, but then I started to grow tired by it all again. It was not that it was bad, it as just long, an...
Synopsis:Welcome to a dystopian East Asian country (like Japan but larger) where people live happily and peacefully under the watchful eye of your average, sadistic Dictator. In order to keep things straight under control once a year a class of 15-year-old junior high kids is sent to an enclosed loc...
This review can also be found on Book Girl of Mur-y-Castell-blog.What can I say about this black and red covered brick that hasn’t been said already? Not much. Nothing at all.The translation sucks. It’s uneven, sloppy, and it’s painful to read at times. It’s the reason I kept putting this book down ...
