Stigma
I was initially drawn to Stigma by its unique premise - glowing red letters randomly appearing above the heads of some of the population. The direction of this book is really well thought out, with many questions about the arrival of the stigmas being addressed and explored in the book. I eagerly read as we followed from the first appearance, the reactions of everyone else and the twists and turns that take place along the way. All the while we read as the dates provide a resounding marker of how little time has passed to have so much change. I ... View Full Review
Hurtmoor
Initially, I wasn't too sure about this book. It seemed that it was just another story about old school friends getting together and the tensions over unresolved issues that can surface. However, as the story progressed, it became clear that there is much more to this story and by the end I was holding my breath. The characters are well-drawn, even though they are not all likeable, and the story is moved on by concentrating on one character at a time through which the reader learns about the complexities of their lives and the relationships past and present with their ...
