Unfortunately I am not going to read the book, so I can't give it an accurate overall review (take the 2 star rating with a grain of salt), but I wanted to warn others about the very disturbing, terrifying opening scenes of this book. This is a very dark, scary book, appropriate for teenagers perhaps but NOT anyone younger. I agree with many of the reviews on this site and use it often, but I think they COMPLETELY missed the mark on this one. In hindsight, I should have previewed the book and not given it to her, but as I said, Common Sense Media rated it age 9+- so when she grabbed it from me at the library I let her run off with it. I had a hard time looking at the images - so you can imagine how my 10.5 year old felt. The second page features scenes of: a little girl lying in a bed with her throat slit an adult woman laying in bed with her throat slit, and a man laying face down on the floor, dead, with a knife wound in his back. I like Neil Gaiman, and thought I'd introduce my daughter to some of his work ( I realize this is an adaptation of his work - my daughter loves graphic novels.). Craig Russell and illustrated by an extraordinary team of renowned artists. I picked this up at the library for my 10.5 year old, based on the positive, age 9+ reviews from common sense media. The second volume of a glorious two-volume, four-color graphic novel adaptation of Neil Gaimans 1 New York Times bestselling and Newbery and Carnegie Medal-winning novel The Graveyard Book, adapted by P.

Willow is such an amazing FMC. Twisted Game is a full-length new-adult romance with dark themes, damaged anti-heroes, and high heat. I’m a loose thread to them-but somehow, I’m becoming more than that, too.Īnd no matter how much I try to deny the terrifying attraction that pulses between us, I know if I don’t find a way out of this tangled web soon. These three dangerous brothers will do anything to make sure I keep my mouth shut about what I saw, even if it means stalking my every movement. They don’t…but they don’t forget about me, either. When they drag me from the blood-soaked bed, I’m certain they’re going to kill me, too. On the night I’m meant to give my body to a brutal Russian mobster, three men storm into the room like dark shadows and kill him before he can claim me. So when I end up desperate for money and out of options, I agree to sell the one thing I have left: my innocence. My parents are dead, my adoptive mother is a drug addict, and the mean girls on campus mock me for my scars. fast pacing, tight plotting, international intrigue.''The Plain Dealer BONUS: This edition includes an excerpt from Robert Ludlum's The Bourne Identity.

I countered, "But why care about losing three knots, when you are invisible to your enemy?"
