I liked most of the stories in this book. It's an old book, from 1994, that I've had for a long time that I finally got around to reading. I skipped the introductions to all the stories because I didn't find them interesting, but the stories themselves were mostly good. The first one was about a nun who was...

A good old haunted house story is something I've always loved, so when the narrator of this tale offered me a chance to listen to the audio in exchange for a review, I jumped at it. Poppy Z. Brite is an author I've heard a lot about and I've been wanting to read his work for quite some time. I learned a few things...

I was looking for the comic and I found this.
The names Iggy Pop and Henry Rollins caught my interest. They had both submitted poems, and the poems are the more better submissions. The stories. though, (and a little bit the art) come across as fan fiction, which is probably inevitable, but gets...

This fun little graphic novel is a curious book to rate because although I enjoyed it, I ended up reading it thinking of other people who would not only enjoy the book but love it. It's like watching an arrow pass you by, hit your mark but fully knowing that it will hit someone else's mark. In short, this book...

3 stars--I liked it, but have some reservations. Warnings for child sexual abuse. Some minor spoilers (for this book and the first one) in this review.
The Scarabae family is as mysterious and alluring as ever, and Lee's writing as purple as ever. (I enjoy it. Your mileage may vary.) I could have...
