Tough Love????
As a teenager I often got into the wrong situations with the wrong people - clueless back then as I was. I would slack school every day. I would smoke – the real sign of a rebel. If I did actually attend school I wouldn’t shut up and listen. Oh no, not me. I would answer back. If I thought those in authority were wrong I would tell them so.

| It was hard to see, given the subject matter, any merit in reading this book (or for someone to write it even). What could be gained from this story? Are we to feel sympathy for a child killer? Should we relate to Boy A? Care whether or not his true ...more | |

"Didn't like it. I didn't hate it either. It just left me a little cold, and considering the heavy subject, I thought it to be frustrating.
It reads well. It's a short book and the flow works nicely, even if it's very one-note. Everyone involved in the " Read more of this review » |

"I seem to be the only person who really didn't like this book. There were so many technical problems and other instances of "bad writing" that it seems like no one edited it. For example, the author changed his point of view too often, putting us in "

"It was an interesting idea. Sort of, though the author denied it, based on the murder of Jamie Bulger in the early 1990s by two young teenagers. Was their horrific crime nature or nurture, can imprisonment really be the best way to deal with the acti"

| Very good read that portrays the themes of hedonism and self obsession in a dark light. | |

| Similarly long and epic portrayal of character (and characters) that I met with David Copperfield. Nicholas Nickleby (the character) however has much more spark and is more proactive than DC. He goes about his life with a great sense of justice and w ...more | |

| Very nicely written/translated but strange and surreal novel which seems to explore the animalistic nature that resides deep within all humans. With drug references and hints of bisexuality this must have pushed some boundaries back in 1927. Definite ...more | |

The Gospel according to Robert A Heinlein. Said to be controversial in its day and I can see why. Quite a story, covering religion, hedonism, human instincts and desires against society's boundaries. Reads like it could be a merged idea of Andy Wier' ...more |

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”

“Perhaps we should not be too surprised that nature sometimes appears counterintuitive to a tribe of observant, carbon-based ape descendants roaming around on the surface of a rocky world orbiting an unremarkable middle-aged star at the outer edge of the Milky Way galaxy.”

“When asked, “How do you write?” I invariably answer, “One word at a time,” and the answer is invariably dismissed. But that is all it is. It sounds too simple to be true, but consider the Great Wall of China, if you will: one stone at a time, man. That’s all. One stone at a time. But I’ve read you can see that motherfucker from space without a telescope.”

“Both Rowling and Meyer, they’re speaking directly to young people. … The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephenie Meyer can’t write worth a darn. She’s not very good.”
