When I started to read this I had kind of a hard time getting into the flow of it since it was translated from french (maybe?) and written in the early 1930s. I eventually got sucked in to Nin's world. Henry's love letters were amazing. However I just couldn't continue to read it, too much romanticism I suppose. I want to finish it though. I did however pick up the book of just their love letters.

I don't know why I started to read this, but it was really freaking good. The ending was a bit predictable - but regardless I highly enjoyed it. Love Christopher Pike.

I decided to re-read this because it was a favorite from high school. Its still an amazing book. The part where Jack's mouth leaves red wine stains all over Teresa's body where he kisses her. HOT! Must give to squirrel friend.

Read in one sitting. The movie was better. I hated how there were no chapters and the stupid medical journal excerpts were just annoying. Had there been chapters and no medical journals it would have been better. Another Thrift Store find.

"This is not intimacy. This is sexual insanity." Ugh, poor Pike. The only thing that saves this book is the obligatory sex in it. For a YA novel there is quite a bit of sex. Its a bit too sci-fi for me and at times hard to understand. I only continued to read it in hopes of a really good plot twist. One never came.

This is supposedly one of Pike's best books that aren't part of a series - I don't agree at all. It wasn't overly horrible, but it was extremely boring up until 2/3 of the way through. The back synopsis is completely misleading and the first few chapters were incredibly long. I guess it was an ok story though.

Someone recommended this to me and it was actually a pretty good read. It was a bit predicable, but I'd like to see this made into a movie. I think all the different goth costumes would be neat. I wish it would have explained the end a little bit more though.
