A fun reboot of Spider-man getting his symbiote suit from Battleworld and now that he's back home he's unaware that his suit is a living organism. I like how Mysterio is shown as pretty lame and he knows it LOL. Anyway, I'm always a fan of Spider-man and Venom and love when they reboot an old comic with newer, fresher art!

Spoooopy!!! I love ghost stories with changing art!

Awww, what a sweet ending to this series. I'm also glad that they made sure to say Shirotani isn't "cured" just taking the right steps to having a more freeing life as a germaphobe. Also, cute ending with the new list he has to make for Kurose :)

This was stop and go for me and my reading speed but that ending though...
Well I read the rest of the series? Not anytime soon, I feel like pursuing other dragon series first.

Need a quick read that has all the best of a horror film in a short novel? Look no further! I say "killer mermaids" you probably think "cheap SyFy original movie, right? Which is funny, because the crew that sets sail in this novel is creating a documentary for a fictional channel that likens itself to SyFy. They're out to prove there's such a thing as mermaids, even if they need to use costumed actors to fudge the truth a bit. But what they find aren't beautiful sirens with shapely figures and colorful tails. These creatures are deadly! Such a fun read!

Much better than the first volume! Pretty much concludes the series like the movie, but Callaghan's daughter is much younger.

A nice guide for girls starting to identify as a geek, nerd, or otaku. I've been some of those terms for a while now, and working on others, so most of it wasn't new to me. But it has some great interviews with women in the nerd culture, and a great section about feminism in the nerd world.

I appreciated the chapter on fanfiction and that no matter what you write, no matter what the rating, if you write it for yourself and not others, you are doing it right. Makes me happy!

I really enjoyed this book, especially the original-ness of the plot. When the father of the Barrett family loses his job, they are not in the best place financially to support their mentally unstable daughter. Is it a newfound faith in God that makes the father decide to side with his priest, or the chance to make some much-needed money? Either way, Mr. Barrett agrees to allow their family to become the center of a new documentary titled "The Possession". Is their daughter actually possessed, or mentally unstable? When told through the eyes of the youngest daughter, who is only 8, it's hard to tell who is the true maniac of the family.

I can tell when a book is scaring me when I have a restless nights of weird dreams and foreboding feelings. This book did that. The atmosphere just gets steadily darker and darker as the characters slowly decline into madness and begin to doubt themselves. It really gets to you!

BUT, my major complaint is the author's portrayal of the female characters. Yes, this book is getting up there in years, having been published in the 1970's. And while all the characters were never lovable, especially as their deepest secrets and fears were brought to light, the female characters in particular were portrayed rather poorly. No one was able to stand up for themselves. All of their hauntings and fears were sexual. Edith's only reason for being there was because she simply couldn't LIVE without her husband for a week without breaking down and had to stay by his side. And her greatest fear was discovering she was in fact a lesbian? Oh horrors! She also mentions how she and her husband rarely, if ever, have sex: he because of crippling polio, her because of a sexually abusive father. Remind me again why you can't live without your husband?

Anyway, despite the book actually being scary, and a great page turner, the sexism brought my rating down a bit. So if you don't mind a good, classic, whiny, dependent female character, but want something spoopy, then this book is for you!
