Description

I really liked this book especially because it was so different from any other book I have read. Each chapter was a case file for a fairy tale related mystery that Johnnie, the MC, tasked himself to solve. The little mysteries then tied in to the overall mystery of the book. I found them very entertaining and interesting and liked trying to figure out how the resolution would unfold.

Like in #1, the structure of this book is made of different “cases” to solve. Johnnie is 26 and beautiful and quite grumpy that he is human and “normal” and will never fit in to the elite abnormal world around him. In love with his adopted brother (who cares less for normal human bothersome Johnnie), he moves out of his protected family estate (against his adopted vampire father’s wishes) and moves in above a sketchy dive bar. There he finds that his reputation of puzzle solving has become quite famous, and various clients stumble into the bar seeking his help. I really love Mrs. Sophie Cleverly’s writing style!! Her writing is beautiful❤️ One of the best things about her books is that the endings are not loose ❤️ As gifted communicator and leading scientist, Juergen Tautz has much in common with Carl Sagan, Richard P Feynman, Konrad Lorenz, Vince Dethier and others famous for their work in popularizing science and making it accessible to all. With that said, I really loved this book. It was easy for me to dive right in and stay there. I actually had trouble putting the book down. I loved the world surrounding the vampires and how other creatures were sporadically thrown in. The hierarchy of the creatures was fascinating but at times the vampires hierarchy was a bit confusing but that never stopped me from enjoying the story. I hadn't read the first book in this series, but it wasn't a problem. I have met many interesting characters in this one, including the main characters from the first book. I liked them all, so I will probably read the first book in this series and the next ones.Another thing that has changed, of course, is The New Yorker; its whole style was different in Shawn's day. The amount of freedom a writer enjoyed there may have been unique in American journalism. I never wrote on assignment, was never asked to cover this or that event--"coverage" as a conception did not exist. Once it was conceded that dance was a topic acceptable on a regular basis to NewYorker readers, my choices of subject and deadline were never even queried. When I thought I had to write, I would reserve space, then file at the last minute. When, as frequently happened, I overran the space, more space was found. And The New Yorker's editing procedures were a model of courtesy and scrupulosity. a b Stevenson, Jane (November 29, 2009). "Lady Gaga puts on a Monster show". Toronto Sun. Archived from the original on July 5, 2017 . Retrieved November 30, 2009. I loved this book. It was so creepy but cool at the same time, with a lot of unexpected plots- which you can never guess! I was pleased to find that the twins meet their aunt, Aunt Sara. They find out the truth about their mother as well.

Both mysteries build in tension and wonder, revealing kidnapping, treachery, new family and memories. Rookwood’s reputation is crumbling around them, as girls leave in droves. Will the Ballet recital mend it? Or will it be the death of the twins? Louisa is also not your "typical" historical romance female. She is not just "plain", she is extremely ugly. It's interesting that during most of the book Douglas is in the dark shadows and so neither Louisa or the reader knows what he looks like. It adds the excitement when Louisa sees him for the first time.. and the reader does too. Patashnik, Ben (December 3, 2009). "Album review: Lady Gaga– The Fame Monster (Polydor)". NME.
