![]() ![]() ![]() “Girl, fetch ale.” He perched on the edge of the table and smiled. Tell me why we shouldn’t seize what’s left of the Roman Empire once and for all.” Attila turned to the table and saw the fallen goblet, the milk dripping off to soak into the mat on the floor. If there is a sequel at some point, I am invested enough in their story to want to read it. I would have loved to see more of the back story actually told and more of what happened next. However, I found the historical setting fascinating and could see how with more development the story could have rated higher for me. I was also disappointed with the ending, which was too sudden for my taste. The romance was already developed apparently, but I did not really feel their love for one another beyond what they both seemed to think was good sex. The story itself felt very rushed and left me feeling dissatisfied. As the current story opens, the treaty has been broken and the two men find themselves once again thrown together as diplomatic relations are re-opened.Īlthough I found the premise fascinating because I would never have considered Attila the Hun as a romantic lead of any sort. They spent time together before the story begins as the general tried to form a diplomatic solution to the problem of the Huns attacking Rome. The Hun & the General takes the characters of Attila the Hun and a retired Roman general as a pair of thwarted, star-crossed lovers. ![]() ![]() ![]() To their astonishment, they think succeed! Coming across a book on the occult Josh, Robby, and their friend Corrie, try to resurrect. Josh blames himself for Billy’s untimely demise, and soon finds a way to ease his guilt. Josh Wentworth and his good friend Robby, could not believe it when their daredevil friend Billy, dared to take the risk, and was sadly swept out to sea. Anyone who tried it was either an idiot or a fool. The Riptide was a very dangerous place to surf. ![]() ![]() ![]() We do know that Enoch was the one God selected to act as an intermediary to the fallen angels, instructing him to tell them what their punishment would be for their transgressions. (It's also worth noting that Les Enluminures says Noah is the great-grandson of Enoch.)Įnoch, the story says, tried to speak on behalf of the angels and their giant children - but sadly, a lot of the texts are missing. The angels started teaching their giant offspring evil ways, and God not only imprisoned them, but subjected them to judgment and sent the flood to hit the reset button on his creations. Those children were the sons and daughters of 200 angels, and they were a race of 450-foot-tall giants. (The story also shows up in Genesis, but in less detail.) Before the Great Flood, angels and humans met and mingled pretty commonly, and the inevitable happened: children. According to the Gnostic Society Library, the Book of Enoch tells the tale of angels who are destroyed by lust. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Growing up dual heritage in a world where bitter prejudice divides Noughts and Crosses has meant she's an outsider wherever she turns.Įnter Jude McGregor. ![]() But the world hasn't changed quickly enough for their daughter, Callie Rose. Sixteen years have passed since Sephy Hadley first met Callum McGregor - and the hate that divided them turned to hope. And he is determined to force her to take sides, and destroy her life. Sephy Hadley - a Cross, supposedly powerful and privileged - has bound herself forever to her nought lover Callum McGregor's family.īut Jude McGregor blames Sephy for all the tragedies his family has suffered. Two families have been shattered by the divided and violent society they live in. ![]() Where there has been love, now there is hate. Then - in spite of a world that is fiercely against them - these star-crossed lovers choose each other.īut this is love story that will lead both of them into terrible danger. Noughts and Crosses are fated to be bitter enemies - love is out of the question. They've been friends since they were children, and they both know that's as far as it can ever go. But she's lonely, and burns with injustice at the world she sees around her.Ĭallum is a nought: he's considered to be less than nothing - a blanker, there to serve Crosses - but he dreams of a better life. Sephy is a Cross: she lives a life of privilege and power. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() There were no sexual assaults or threats of it and no physical abuse. I’ve read hundreds of books since then! So this is very memorable. I read it in 2014 and was surprised how much I still remembered from it. We’re going to go head to head, because neither of us wants to back down. I’m not interested in avoiding him or turning the other cheek anymore. I’m hoping that after a year of breathing room, he’s moved on and forgotten all about me.īut even if he hasn’t changed, I have. Now I’m back to finish up high school and get the hell out of here forever. I spent a year studying abroad and bathed in the freedom of life without Jared. I worried about what was around every corner and behind every door. His pranks and rumors got more sadistic as time wore on, and I made myself sick trying to hide from him. I’ve been humiliated, shut out, and gossiped about all through high school. But then, one summer, he turned on me and has made it his mission to screw up my life at every opportunity. We’re neighbors, and once, we were best friends. He would never refer to me so informally, if he referred to me at all. Very steamy love to hate to love YA/NA romance ![]() ![]() ![]() But neither of them is a soft place the other could fall. Helpless, August starts sustaining himself on the misplaced hope that if he humored Jack and helped him cope, Jack would lose the truth of himself a little more slowly. When Jack’s hallucinations begin, Jack settles into the unwavering conviction that he sees into a parallel world in need of rescuing. August pushing exactly as hard against Jack as he did against him, so that everything they had built would stay standing and if either let up or gave it more of his weight, it would fall and crumble. Instead, they’ve emerged from the other side of their differences with the kind of relationship that is blinding, deafening, maddening. Jack and August’s lives should have shot out in different directions: Jack, the golden-haired varsity rugby player with the seemingly perfect life, and August, the poor kid who runs drugs in their high school to make extra money. The Wicker King beckoned me closer with delicate claws then sank its fangs into my heart and I think a part of me will never fully escape it. ![]() ![]() My heart feels both hollowed out and so heavy my chest could not hold it. There is a unique sort of agony to this book that I can’t exactly describe. ![]() ![]() ![]() The piece has something of a split personality, and the Winnie-the-Pooh angle comes so late it seems almost an afterthought.īeautiful but bifurcated, with the two stories in one making it a challenge to determine the audience. A photo album includes snapshots of Winnie with her soldiers and with Christopher Robin. Mattick’s prose has a storyteller’s rhythm and features the occasional flourish (repeating “his heart made up his mind”) Blackall’s watercolor-and-ink illustrations have a peaceful stillness that’s welcome in a book that, though not about combat, concerns the trappings of war. ![]() Milne, of course-takes the name and runs with it. ![]() Christopher Robin names his stuffed bear Winnie-the-Pooh after her, and his father-A.A. “That’s the end of Harry and Winnie’s story,” but another section begins, about a boy named Christopher Robin Milne who plays with Winnie at the London Zoo. Mom tells little Cole about Harry, a veterinarian in Winnipeg “about a hundred years before you were born.” En route to his World War I muster, Harry buys a bear cub from a trapper and names her Winnipeg “so we’ll never be far from home.” Winnie travels overseas with the Canadian soldiers to training in England, but when they ship out to France for actual combat, Harry leaves her at the London Zoo. ![]() A mother tells a true bedtime story about the bear that inspired Winnie-the-Pooh’s name. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Mike Tyson’s Undisputed Truth book starts out with a prologue, jumping into the difficulties he had in some of his relationships, with some of them resulting into serious court cases.ĭuring this opening chapter, Mike brings us into some of his thoughts, detailing how difficult life could get for him, with a lot of it being brought on by his celebrity status. No, Mike Tyson shares with us how difficult his life had become at times, with the external media pressures and intense court cases that nearly destroyed him. It wasn’t always a case of the glitz and glamour that we often see at face value with celebrities. Pick up the paperback book and you’ll find that is quite a long read, but each moment is worth delving into as his story truly is an intriguing one. There’s no doubting his career success, and his name will go down as one of the greatest, especially with the sheer strength that he hurled into each of his punches. Very introverted outside of the ring, but the second he steps into it, he becomes a different animal. If you’re familiar with the boxer, you’ll know just how much of a unique character he is. Potentially forming one of the most interesting reads that I have discovered within the sporting world, Mike Tyson’s Undisputed Truth covers so many angles of his life, starting from a troubled childhood, all the way through to the life defining moments of his adult life. ![]() |
