Just finished up Oak Eternal by John Ploetz. I'd give it a 3 out 4. Very interesting concepts, but a lot of grammatical mistakes.

Jean Rhys' 1966 acclaimed novel, The Wide Sargasso Sea, finally gives voice and substance to the 'mad woman' in Jane Eyre, Rochester's first wife, Bertha Mason.

This novel identifies the mysterious woman as a young Creole West Indian, Antoinette Cosway, who grew up with a confused identity in a world that hovered between whites, many of whom were slave owners, and the local indigenous population.

Rochester is never named in The Wide Sargasso Sea, so the links to Jane Eyre are not immediately apparent. The link is only made more explicit in the short third part of the novel when Antoinette, whom Rochester chooses to call Bertha, is locked away in the far wing of the house in England.

The first two parts, narrated by the young woman and the confused Englishman, are set in a lush and verdant Jamaica, where both have their difficulties with the culture. The prose is lush, elegant and stylish, and Rhys has used her knowledge of the West Indies to capture its landscape, climate, culture and folklore in a rich and evocative manner.

The story is one of uncertainty, mistrust and sadness, with strong overtones of local superstitions and black magic. There are many wonderful characters, none less so than the protective and slightly mysterious servant Christophine.

This is a quite fascinating and enchanting novel that can be well enjoyed in its own right, even if you know nothing of Bronte's Jane Eyre.

4 stars out of 5

My last book review was "Superhighway" by Alex Fayman. I found over 20 typos/errors in the book, but I gave it 3 out of 4 stars anyway because I enjoyed it so much. Read my review here: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=55410

The last book I read was "The Dead-Tossed Waves" by Carrie Ryan.
I would give it a 5/5. Once I started reading it I couldn't put it down

I am getting into the sixth chapter of dead fix. Not what i would normally read but i think i love the play of characters and the unfolding of their roles in the plots. The HOSS and all. It's something i would read upto the last page just because i want to know what's next but more out of curiosity than intrigued.

We Were Liars, great book. Confused in the beggining but shooked at the end. Amazing

Fully, I just finished re-reading A Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and it's a solid 8/10

I'm currently re-reading/listening to Golden Age by James Maxwell, and it's a 10/10 for me. Simon Vance's narration is phenomenal. I have to read the series again so I can appreciate the 4th book that just came out.

Last book read is that place of knowledge I rated it 1 out of 4 star because it had so many mistakes. I was like who wrote this book then I found out it was an autistic person. And my heart broke

[RainaBlaise]

The last book I read was Night Music: nocturnes volume 2 by John Connolly. I would give it a 4/5 because it was exciting, enticing, and it had an excellent storyline, but at times it was hard to follow. I found it as a needed change from my usual readings of young adult fiction.

The last book I read was Raven's Peak, I gave it a 3 out of 4 stars^^.

Fifty One Tales by Lord Dunsany. Strange other-worldly stories but well written and held my attention. Dunsany was one of the authors who influenced H. P. Lovecraft.

I just finished Ready Player One, and my rating is 4 out of 4.
Lovely read, if you like the 1980s , but also the future virtual reality world.

I recently finished reading Herman Hesse's Demian. I give it a strong 4.5/5. Great characters, deeply psychological, you can definitely see the influence of Jung and also the effect of the Great War on the author. Highly recommended
