The dust jacket is a work of beauty and the book is also wonderful. The story is set on a desert planet where our hero and his family are sent. And then it covers the story from there and recently an adaptation was released last year and was received very well but that only told half of the story and the sequel is already in the works. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">I enjoyed the story but the truth is that you need to read at least the first four books in the series to get the complete saga of the Dune Messiah and then there are further books as well. There is a total of 8 books in the series and then there are other books set in the world or about the books. I would try to read at least the first 4 books and maybe the further books as well. These are the books in the series:</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">Dune (1965)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">Dune Messiah (1969)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">Children of Dune (1976)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">God of Emperor of Dune (1981)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">Heretics of Dune (1984)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">Chapterhouse Dune (1985)</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">Hunters of Dune (2006) by Brian Herbert & Kevin J Anderson</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam; font-size: large;">Sandworms of Dune (2007) by Brian Herbert & Kevin J Anderson</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Kalam;"><span style="font-size: large;">I bought the book because I loved the edition and always wanted to read that but beyond the cover and the illustrations at the start and the end the book doesn't have any other illustrations in the book but at least the page quality is very good.

Vampire lawyer Donovan Trait and his wife, chemically-turned Judge Shirley Magnusen, are battling for their lives and the lives of their children. The Vampire Coalition wants them dead, but now the despots have also decided to expand their net, targeting any vampire whose blood is mixed with human or Were. Half-bloods are already treated like dirt by the Vampire Nation. They have been subjected to centuries of discrimination and cruelty at their hands. As the Coalition embarks on a campaign of terror, destruction, and slaughter, millions of half-bloods emerge from the shadows, ready and willing to reclaim their place in the Vampire Nation. The problem is, war cannot be unleashed out in the open in the human world, battles must be fought in other ways. Even with an island of highly-skilled vampire nuns and a few Weres and humans at that their side, it appears the Traits may be fighting an unwinnable war. Their only option may be to sacrifice their own lives in the hopes of setting all other half-bloods free.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b><u>Book Links:</u></b></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://www.extasybooks.com/Vive-la-R%C3%A9sistance" target="_blank">Extasy Books</a> * <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60838367-vive-la-resistance" target="_blank">Goodreads</a></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><h1 style="text-align: center;"><u>Read an Excerpt from Vive La Résistance</u></h1><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Donovan shifted on the lounger and muttered incomprehensively, then he emitted a rumbling snore.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">“Hey, y’all. So yeah, vampires are real and they’re not above doing the dirty to those who share their blood. Take a look at this.” The Tik-Tokker grinned. “You are not gonna believe it. It’s so shady.”</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Video of the Coalition camps rolled across the screen. Occasionally, the camera zeroed in a dirty or bruised Millennial, or a guard pushing a group of people into a building, their ankles locked together with some sort of rope. They were seen eating off of metal plates and lined up to fill a metal cup with something from a barrel. It wasn’t water. The liquid was rust-colored and thick, like blood.<br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">“And the dudes running the place have a Marie Antoinette fetish. You know—” The woman mimicked a knife across her throat. “Off with their heads?” She giggled.<br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">A guillotine appeared on camera. About ten people were in line, each with a black hood over their heads and their arms bound behind them. One at a time, they were pushed onto a stage and forced to their knees, their necks positioned directly under the blade. With manic efficiency, a guard released the blade. Most heads flew into a barrel in front of the platform. The ones that rolled off onto the stage were kicked to their final destination. The headless bodies were tossed onto a pile on the ground.<br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">“Oh, grosss,” the woman complained. She leaned toward the camera. “Kind of like a bad zombie movie, isn’t it?” She sat back in her chair and made a face. “Whatever. I mean, like, are we supposed to believe that’s really happening? Isn’t that against the law or something?” She cackled. “As if.” She leisurely stretched her body, her crop top exposing a belly button ring. “I’m so shook.”<br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The woman tossed her hair over her shoulder and smiled. “Now, I’m not sharing this for the views. It is kind of sus. But if this shit is real, someone needs to get off the pot and do something about it. Aren’t there any woke cops out there who can play the James Bond card? Before anymore—” She swiped her finger across her throat and giggled. Then the screen went black.<br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Donovan shot up in his chair and blinked. Once. Twice. He shook his head and attempted to gather himself. What the hell? Sure, he had needed the sleep, even if it was only a thirty-minute nap, but the dreams he could do without. It had been less than forty-eight hours since the worldwide kidnappings. Donovan knew preparations for rescue were underway. But he also knew Bengotten and Hannigan were capable of even greater cruelty. He could only imagine the terror and the torture the victims were being subjected to. <br /><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">It was difficult to understand how the vampire world was capable of this. He had long prided himself on their natural superiority, their ability to rise up above the petty politics and unjustified violence in the human and Were worlds. Yet overnight, vampires had become the monsters, the tyrants capable of such evil. That astonished him. For the first time in his long existence, Donovan was ashamed of being a vampire. If it was possible, he might very well submit to being turned into a human or a Were. He buried his face in his hands. Yes, he could live as a human. Perhaps he could ask Dr. Alvarez to find a way to turn off his vampirism, maybe using the gene-editing Marilyn could not stop talking about.</div><div><br /></div></div></div><p> <b style="font-size: xx-large;"><u>About Seelie Kay:</u></b></p><p><a href="https://www.b00kr3vi3ws.in/2022/05/releasedayblitz-vive-la-resistance.html" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;" target="_blank"><img border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="900" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tdz3YD54Bjg/YG3X2795FII/AAAAAAAAHaY/uijM5yxUG0UnB6msNFoG9sssMQXrTdybwCPcBGAsYHg/s320/Seelie%2BKay.jpg" width="320" /></a>Award-winning author Seelie Kay writes about lawyers in love, sometimes with a dash of kink.<br /><br />Writing under a nom de plume, the former lawyer and journalist draws her stories from more than 30 years in the legal world.

Peace and quiet at last. He put on his reading glasses, opened up the book and started to read.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">And then he heard her laugh. He shouldn’t, he told himself. He really shouldn’t stand up and try to see where she was or what she was doing. Maya Patgaonkar was not someone he should be looking at or looking for or any other type of looking. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">He got to his feet and walked to the balcony railing, peering out through the dusky light of early evening. He was definitely looking.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">She was walking down the endlessly sloping green lawn with the guy she’d arrived with and another guy and girl. All four of them seemed to be talking at the same time, practically talking over each other. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Her hair was loose and hung in waves down her back. She wore a loose, floral skirt with a billowing white shirt that gave her a distinctly free, bohemian look. And she still limped. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Not a temporary thing then, this limp. Had she gotten it in the accident that had killed Vikram? Aakash’s bitter recounting of their wild night of debauchery that had ended in his brother’s death had been both sordid and distasteful. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">It had also been deeply disturbing. That had not been the girl he’d thought he was marrying. Maybe her dumping him for being a penniless loser had been a true blessing in disguise. And yet, Yash continued to stand and watch her and her friends meander along in what was clearly an aimless walk. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Maya. The name resonated in his head. Almost as if she heard him, she turned, her gaze drawn to the house. He saw her scanning the side of the house facing them and was about to step back and out of sight when her gaze snagged on him. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The guy who’d arrived with her, Ved, said something to her and she responded but she didn’t look away. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The moment between them stretched into an eternity that should never have existed. His heart was thudding, a drumbeat that he didn’t want to hear but one that thrummed through his veins nevertheless. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">She took a step toward him, a miniscule movement that nobody caught but him. It broke the spell.

This book was adapted into a movie in 2011 and that was just an average movie that killed the movie franchise for this book series. But let's come back to the book, the book is about a group of aliens who escaped to the earth after their planet is destroyed by a hostile group of aliens. Nine young kids along with guardians leave the planet and there is a charm placed on them which means that they can only be killed in order thus we start with the murder of number 3 and then we meet Number Four. After they landed on the earth all Nine groups moved in different directions and they tried to stay away. And that means that our protagonist leaving for another small town and assuming another identity this time they reach Paradise, Ohio, and assume the names John Smith and Henri Smith and pose as a Father-Son duo. </span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: Josefin Sans;">Now let's talk about how I felt about the book. I had seen the movie when it was released and wanted to read this series for a long time and wanted to collect the entire series but alas could only collect the 5 out of 7 books I am missing books 5 and 6 in the series. But I had enough and finally started reading the book and I freaking loved the book. This book is very slow yet it was a book that I finished in just a few days and I quickly picked up the second part of the story and I am already 50+ pages in that as well. The book its time as John or Number Four discovers his past and his powers. John is now 15 years old and so he starts gaining some powers. And then the training begins as the hostile race that attacked their planet is also hunting them on the earth. Also as John is a teenager he is attending high school and there is his love interest Sarah and the antagonist Mark. Sarah and Mark used to date but have since broken up. I enjoyed my time reading this book and would recommend this book to all if you love reading fiction and YA books. I am myself love YA books and fiction books. </span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: Josefin Sans;">My Rating for this book is 5 out of 5</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: Josefin Sans;">or</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: Josefin Sans;">***** out of *****</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: Josefin Sans;">Amazon link for the book <a href="https://www.amazon.in/Am-Number-Four-Lorien-Legacies/dp/0718156471/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1645049918&sr=8-1" target="_blank">I am Number Four</a> </span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p>Vikas Khairhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10732792647915064715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7252270190168081949.post-68684990381208294922021-10-21T04:42:00.001+05:302021-10-21T04:42:59.582+05:30Review: The Handmaid's Tale

<br /><br />
Wow! Finally done, I have finally not only completed this book but this trilogy as well. I wanted to read this series for so long and now finally completed during the pandemic and now reduced my reading has become. I was introduced to Mark Lawrence through Goodreads where I saw, read, and enjoyed his reviews for other books. And his joy at the wonderful work done by others. Coming back to the book this keeps on jumping from time to time and sometimes perspective too and slowly we reach the conclusion. It was another good read though through my slump this took almost 3 months to finish after all I read other books throughout the time as well. I already have the next two trilogies set in the world ready to be read but like I said I would first try to finish the books in my Currently reading list so the fool of thieves will have to wait a little bit more yet. So while I put this book in the read booklists and continue to try to finish the books that are waiting for me and I will Keep on Reading.<br /><br />People who don't read generally ask me my reasons for reading. Simply put I just love reading and so to that end I have made it my motto to just Keep on Reading. I love to read everything except for Self Help books but even those once in a while. I read almost all the genres but YA, Fantasy, Biographies are the most. My favorite series is, of course, Harry Potter but then there are many more books that I just adore. I have bookcases filled with books which are waiting to be read so can't stay and spend more time in this review, so remember I loved reading this and love reading more, you should also read what you love and then just <a href="https://www.keeponreading.in" rel="nofollow noopener">Keep on Reading</a>.

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/20895196">Mr Mercedes</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/3389">Stephen King</a><br/>
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1121693378">5 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
Well I read and finished it in double quick time didn't I, I did. I loved this new book and the proof is that I managed to finish this book in 5 days while there are books on my currently-reading list for many years now. I hope to finish them someday but let's come back to the book in question. Maybe it's only me and I haven't read much work of Mr. King but this still felt different but the same time there was some similarities as well and I read through the pages in a daze and of course the newly implemented lockdown helped as well but why didn't it do the same for the other books? Maybe because they didn't get the King Magic but no worries all shall be read. I laughed, cried, dreaded, sighed, and all other emotions throughout the story and of course, I am off to the next part of the trilogy now.<br /><br />People who don't read generally ask me my reasons for reading. Simply put I just love reading and so to that end I have made it my motto to just Keep on Reading. I love to read everything except for Self Help books but even those once in a while. I read almost all the genres but YA, Fantasy, Biographies are the most. My favorite series is, of course, Harry Potter but then there are many more books that I just adore. I have bookcases filled with books which are waiting to be read so can't stay and spend more time in this review, so remember I loved reading this and love reading more, you should also read what you love and then just <a href="https://www.keeponreading.in" rel="nofollow noopener">Keep on Reading</a>.

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/49332240">Notes from a Big Country</a> by <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/7">Bill Bryson</a><br/>
My rating: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1797658112">4 of 5 stars</a>
<br /><br />
I am apparently going through a reading slump for a few months now but I flew through this book probably because it's a Bryson book or probably because my computer not working while it's waiting for a part so that's that but all I know that I read through this book unlike any other book this year or few months in the last year. It's also possible it's due to the format that is a collection of his weekly articles in a magazine so maybe that's but I have already picked the book in the same format based on the UK, so excuse me while I get lost in the travel experience and thoughts about the UK circa 1995 but I somehow think that I would still find it relevant. So then let's all just Keep on Reading.<br /><br />People who don't read generally ask me my reasons for reading. Simply put I just love reading and so to that end I have made it my motto to just Keep on Reading. I love to read everything except for Self Help books but even those once in a while.

<br /><br />
This free series on Audible was a joy to listen to and I immensely enjoyed my journey to the 1800s of the UK. We Indians were of course supplier of all the wealth to the Britishers at the time but well that's the tale for other times. This is not a narration of a book but rather 12 episodes with music and acting and recreation of the Victorian times to focus on 12 juicy details not discussed normally. Like I said I loved to listen to the episodes and would definitely jump to enjoy the other free series I had added. After all who doesn't love the free stuff? So if you have an Audible subscription then it's a no-brainer to add this and more free series to your library I am sure you would also enjoy the hilarious and funny narration not only from Sir Stephen Fry but also the other narrators. So onto the next one then gotta Keep on Reading.<br /><br />People who don't read generally ask me my reasons for reading. Simply put I just love reading and so to that end I have made it my motto to just Keep on Reading. I love to read everything except for Self Help books but even those once in a while. I read almost all the genres but YA, Fantasy, Biographies are the most. My favorite series is, of course, Harry Potter but then there are many more books that I just adore.
