between the lines
reviews of the latest on-the-edge books
For those of you who can't seem to find anything good to read, between the lines is the place to be. Here you'll find books that are a little different from the rest. No cheesy romance novels, no over-hyped books, and no books that have been reviewed a million times already. Just books with a different twist. Some of these are obscure gems, others have topped the bestsellers list. All are worth taking a look at.
The Dark is Rising
Susan Cooper's masterful tale of legend and myth spans both time and imagination. The dark is rising is actually a five book series based on the real legends of the British Isles.
Neverwhere
Award-winning author Neil Gaiman's novel about a regular guy from Scotland who discovers an entire subculture flourishing in sewer tunnels and old subway stations -- a secret society beneath the streets of London.
In the Forests of the Night / Demon in My View
The debut novel and its sequel by a stunningly talented 15-year-old author, Amelia Atwater Rhodes. In the Forests of the Night follows the story of Risika, a 300-year old vampire. Demon in My View deals with Jessica, a teenage writer who thinks the vampire stories she writes are fictional -- until one of her main characters shows up one day at her school.
