by L .J. Smith


Released Year: 1991

Page count: 410 pages

Medium Used : Paperback

Genre : Mythology, Fantasy, Magic, Suspense, Vampires, Weres, 2024-read.

Rating : 5/5 🌟 😎 😀 🤣 👌



Fantastic. One of the very good books I read in a while! Fast paced. Informative. Imaginative. Totally engrossing. I usually skip scenes with fighting and skirmishes but the last few pages of this book, I was hanging on every word. This read is so good.


The very famous TV show is loosely based on this book series. Many characters are retained and used the same. But the scenes and situations are all altered. Though the TV show is more successful, I feel the book is good and gigantic in its own right. This is no less suspenseful and is even more focused, directed because the set of characters is limited to a core few.


In the third book, we see Katherine playing the villain. Elena dies and returns as a vampire. In the fourth part, Klaus is the villain and Elena is a ghost that is helping vampires and humans take Klaus down from behind the veil of reality. The book leaves some interesting and embodying questions that make us wanna check out the part 5 book in the series. What happened to Klaus at the end of part 4 is a suspense. How did Elena return to mortal world is another unanswered but accepted plot twist.

The Thorn Birds by Colleen McCullough book review

The Thorn Birds  By Colleen McCullough  Rating 3.75/5 Genres : Australia, Vatican city, Cardinal, Romance, Generational fiction, Historical fiction  Bah. I dont know. I felt this is just an ok sort of book. The only aspect that stirred me and struck a chord with me is the all encompassing, soul level love between Maggie and Father Ralph de Bricassart. Everything else - no matter how juicy,emotional or dramatic just failed to make an impact. The story covers the lives of three generations of women of the Cleary/Armstrong family line - their cherished dreams and dashed hopes, their hurts and heartbreaks over unrequited, failed loves..their finally getting what they wanted but it not being fully enough.. well, it sounds and feels like a roller coaster.  And whats more..there is plenty of repeat in the events of their lives..what has happened to the mother, happens to the daughter and so on..  Coming to the story. Maggie Cleary is brought up with a bunch of brothers in a very p

Valley of the Dolls by Jacqueline Susan

Valley of the Dolls (1966)       by Jacqueline Susann 510 pages (Kindle Digital Edition) Genres : Historical Fiction,  Romance, Philosophical, Psychological Fiction  Rating : 5/5 🥰🥰🥰 One of the best books I have ever read. :) Eerie, omnious and potent with nerve wracking energy. Cannot delineate this story into one subject - this is a concoction dealing with elements of love, romance, betrayal, loss, disillusionment, mental illness, mystery, cancer and deeply engaging,amazing writing talent of Susann.   It kept me hooked through out as I traveled in the shoes of three women who bond during their struggling years for fame and success and break apart once they have reached their pinnacles of success!  This story exposed the vacancy and the void felt even by the most coveted and successful people. The journey to the top is always a lonely journey and even more so when one reaches the spot.   The three women main characters - Anne, Neely, Jennifer -  have got what it takes t
