![]() ![]() The author brought her back sophomore year and added some depth to the character and in junior year she's a force to be reckoned with. Freshman year she was a forgettable character, a one time hook-up added for fluff. I'm starting to like his ex-girlfriend Shauna and her metamorphosis from freshman year to junior year. ![]() The author keeps trying to make him human by adding in these sensitive moments where the reader feels sorry for him but I'm not buying it. His poor girlfriend Marta goes through a difficult time and while she's put in a humbling predicament Grant, her class A a**hole of a boyfriend is off doing all kinds of things with all kinds of girls. Just when I thought he learned his lesson by the end of the book he's a class A a**hole again. I'm not going to give away the good part but the meat of junior year is he meets this girl Yasmine and they have an "encounter", he panics and freaks the hell out and does something so awful, I mean horrible, terrible awful that it takes the whole book for him to recover. I liked him in freshman year, he was a jerk in sophomore year but he's a class A a**hole in junior year. HE GOT WORSE!!!!! I can't believe this kid. ![]() ![]() I didn't think Grant could get any worse. ![]() ![]() Whether it’s on TV, in books or even in the news, people assume that the dads always do a runner. I didn’t know Bruce Springsteen was starting his own baby-sitting club….įirst up, I just have to say how refreshing it was to read a book about teenage pregnancy from the boy’s perspective. Sometimes I felt like these things were overlooked for the bigger picture and eclipsed by other issues that feature later on in the story. ![]() ![]() What was covered- his friend’s reactions, the social workers, the exchange in the doctor’s surgery- was done incredibly well but I just think having a bit more of an insight into those side of things would have made it even more realistic than it was. I would really have loved to see more of the social implications that Dante faced. “How could ten forgettable minutes of not much turn both our lives inside out and upside down like this?”ĭante. ![]() ![]() ![]() As if they were just shells, a mirror reflection. I just did not really care about them in a way. They seemed like vaguely similar to some characters from the Beyond series but way less fleshed out. While the world and the story were not a problem, the characters were. But if I missed some and you find any, please, let me know! I was really curious to see if there would be some.) (Meaning, I did not notice any mention of the character from the Beyond series. ![]() It takes place in a different part of America, and I could not find any direct reference to the previous series. But except for the Flares, there is very little in common. ![]() It's set in the same post-apo/dystopian world as the Beyond series. To be honest, I had a bit of a hard time with this book. Wow, I cannot believe that it's been two years since I've read the last Kit Rocha book. ***Advance Review Copy generously provided through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.*** ![]() ![]() Filmed on location at genuine convents in London and Ireland, In This House of Brede premiered February 27, 1975.Ībove is a ten minute shortened version of the film, while below are some photos, and interesting extracts from newspapers.Īt the time of shooting, the convent and boarding school were very much running.ĭiana Rigg is pictured here against the background of Drishane Convent Here, the peace of mind that Rigg seeks remains elusive, especially when her fidelity to her vows is questioned by the younger novices.

![]() ![]() I love the political intrigue, the twisted family trees, the shady goings on, the small pox aspect of the story is a nice period appropriate touch. I love the highlanders, I LOVE Jamie, I love Claire and how well she has used her upbringing and knowledge to help herself fit in to a time well before her. I can find no fault with any of the parts of this story in the 1700s. What I truly love about these books is the historical aspect. There's just a whole big bunch of explaining that I didn't really appreciate. I was admittedly a little bored by the start of this book, I didn't like the present (1960s) setting and felt like I got a bit of an info dump when Claire goes to visit Roger with Briana after the death of the reverend. I NEED to know what happens with Gilly Duncan, did Jamie survive Collodden Field? ![]() I adore this series, and though I liked the second installment slightly less than the first, I am desperate to continue to the end. ![]() ![]() ![]() The author way of developing the characters is very impressive and her characters are well drawn and compelling. ![]() There are fabulous stand-alone set pieces, engaging characters, glorious prose and a soul-stirring look into the various lives of human. ![]() All the characters of the novel are unique and refreshing.
