The last volume was the best from the whole serie. The serie follows Sakurai Miu, she is in the beginning of the serie in love with Amamiya Shion but she is not confident that he while like her because of her childish looks so she turns to the Dark Arts. By using black magic she summons Satan himself, Satan agrees to grant her her wish but at a price: her virginity.
The serie follows a few tropes that the most of us are tired of seeing but there is something with this serie that kept me reading. The beginning of the serie felt for me rushed and some of the characters where annoying. I have read this serie from a website. The English translation was not good, I think that this serie was never translated official to English.
I have read more things from Mayu Shinjo and her drawing style doesnt chance must, so all of her characters kinda look the same. However her stories are kinda addictive.
This book was real boring! Even the action scenes where for me quit dull, it was only because of my stubborness that I kept reading.
I found the main female character (Diana Bishop) weak, whiney and not believable at all, the main male character (Matthew de Clermont) was a pitiful excuse for a vampire. There relationship felt like the bad kind of insta-love. Why would a 1500 year old vampire give a 20/30 something year old the time of day?
I wonder if the author even research vampires and witches.
After reading and highlighting (the inside looks like a disorded rainbow) I got a few tips, I have trouble to read to between the lines even in mine own language. I will definitely be trying the 30-method but I'm not sure when. There are a few things that botherd me while I was read this book.
- The continues word “reader”. I will never be writing for readers so that they can be pleased. The only I have to please is myself, not some faceless person on the other side of the globe.
- The time management. In 30 days to complete your first draft sounds to me as impossible, maybe it is not if you if it's the only thing you did and it sounds great. But when I start trying I will need a whole of time more than just 30 days.
- This sentence bother the most: “The villain may rear its ugly head.” Sorry that I have to say this but not every evil guy is ugly! I know a quit few villains in the written word are quit plesant to the eyes.
I didnt love or hate this book, but I have some issues with it. For me the charchters didnt feel like sixteen, it was more like twelve. And how on Earth did they become friends so quickly after what Felicity and her “Sheeps” did to Gemma and Ann. I have seen that Felicity whould bring problems and I am glad that Pippa died.
I started this book with in mind that I would get new tips for cleaning and most of it I enjoyed reading it. But mine main issue of this book is the part of the books, that you should throw out all your unread books because; “someday is never.” If I did that it will mean that I would throw out almost all of my books.
When I was reading this book I got the feeling that the author didnt have any friends and havent a real childhood while growing up.
First of all: the gods really need a spanking on there behinds! They are like spoiled little childeren having a tantrum, for me Rick didn't grasped the essence of the gods.
I have been growing up with the gods from Xena the Warrior Princess, so I have a total different image in my head of Ares, who is played by Kevin Smith (bless his soul), and Hades. In the Lightingthief I didn't feel the danger from the gods.
I liked the story overall, with a couple of issues, and I am definitely going continue with the serie after I buy the ten books. Maybe I will learn something new about the gods in the Sea of Monsters. I hope that the goddesses coming in that one, like: Selena, Artemis and Persephone.
I broke the rules by this book, I have seen the movie before I read the book. I liked the movie but the book was better. And now I am wondering why the movie was different then the book, I know that moviemakers can't put everything in what is in a book but by Silver Linings Playbook I felt that they got been more faithful.
I am gonna buy this book.
The most diffecult thing to do is that sometimes you should let love ones go, if it's a animal or a human it does not matter. When they suffer, let them die. I know it's a hard thing to do and almost or not possible, you should fine the strength and let them go. To me personaly I have a harder time of letting go of an animal than a human (I have been hurt alot by humans too a point that I have lost trust in the humanrace) I know this with mine onw experions. This May it will be 19 years that I lost Ernie and even now I cry like it just happend.
