Dark Matter tastes like German chocolate cake. For those of you who have not had the fortunate to try a piece German chocolate cake recently, this is a great way to experience the flavor without getting any of the calories. German chocolate cake is a layered cake filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. Traditionally sweet baking chocolate is used for the chocolate flavor in the actual cake. The robust filling and topping is a caramel made with egg yolks and evaporated milk. Once the caramel is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred into the mixture. Finally, rich chocolate frosting is spread around the sides of the cake to hold in the filling.

Dark Matter eLiquid by VapeSafe captures the essence of German chocolate cake. Dark Matter eLiquid delivers plumes of vapor and rich chocolatey flavor that you'll want to enjoy again and again. Try Dark Matter today!

We Need to Talk About Kevin: A Novel (P.S.)

Description

The gripping international bestseller about motherhood gone awry

Eva never really wanted to be a mother—and certainly not the mother of the unlovable boy who murdered seven of his fellow high school students, a cafeteria worker, and a much-adored teacher who tried to befriend him, all two days before his sixteenth birthday. Now, two years later, it is time for her to come to terms with marriage, career, family, parenthood, and Kevin's horrific rampage in a series of startlingly direct correspondences with her estranged husband, Franklyn. Uneasy with the sacrifices and social demotion of motherhood from the start, Eva fears that her alarming dislike for her own son may be responsible for driving him so nihilistically off the rails.

Summary: "endless doom . . . ."

Forced myself to keep reading this in spite of the unlikable characters and altogether depressing outlook, and the payoff was a long time coming - the last chapter, to be exact. The format, a series of letters written to the departed husband, was annoying and self-indulgent, since most of the content was a retelling of what they had already shared and would have been already known to dearest Franklin. So why not just tell the reader, in a less contrived and more interesting way? She made me hate the husband, yet unbelievably kept professing her undying love for him and desire to have him back. Unbelievable on so many levels. The heart-stopping ending somewhat redeems the book but doesn't begin to make up for the first 300-some dismal pages.

Summary: "A Must Read!"

An avid reader friend recommended this book and I'm thankful she did. Kevin is the nightmare child I wouldn't wish on anyone. He's incredibly intelligent and his actions deliberate but he's also disturbed and sadistic. His mom, as well as this reader, grows to fear him, yet the dad doesn't seem to really see him for who he is. It's interesting to ask readers when they've finished the book which parent they felt was a more sympathetic character, a more honest parent -- and I vote for the mom. But the book is very polarizing--Shriver did an incredible job of drawing complete characters and letting the reader come to their own conclusion.

Rather than give any of the plot away, I'll just say that the story gets better and better as you go along. If you have time to read only one book this summer, pluck this off the shelf.

Summary: "A Real Stinker of a Book"

Shriver's main character strikes one increasingly tiresome note throughout this book (or at least as far as I got, which was almost 300pp.): Mom's cynical, but she repeatedly tries to reach out to her preposterously bad son. Never succeeds but keeps thinking she is going to reach him THIS time...Kid keeps a few steps ahead of her, degrading her and besting her at every approach. Continually she picks herself up, dusts herself off, and tries--surprise--unsuccessful yet again! Felt like hundreds of times...So much of the book is nonsense: all the characters are poorly developed and as the book moves along, Shriver gets sadistic, after all, the kid Kevin has to get badder and badder, to keep our interest, right? On page 286 it was easy to spot the setup for yet more sadism (BTW, why would the mother of a psychopath leave her younger daughter alone with him? For that matter, why would the mother even want to have another kid--her son was in diapers until he was 6, just to give you a taste of the pathology in store for you). I gave up on the book at last. What honestly had kept me plodding along was the average of 5 stars so many readers gave it. On page 286 I finally did what I should have done many pages sooner: I read some one star reviews and realized I'd more than had my fill. Buh bye book. Some of Shriver's prose is good, sometimes she has a knack for capturing the moment, but this doesn't come close to making the book worthwhile. I seldom read this far and stop, but reading it was feeling more and more like a chore; now I feel liberated!

Summary: "horror movie not reality"

This book is one more contrived attempt to sensationalize the concept of the psychopath in our midst. It is a horror movie which becomes more horrible by the page. Eva is not a real mother, Kevin is not a real child and his father and sister are even more cardboard like characters. I have spent twenty years working with violent offenders and I have never met anyone as evil as Kevin. This is more like a vampire fantasy than a story of a human family and it worries me that anyone would think that this nightmare has anything to do with the difficulties and challenges of parenthood. It is quite clear that the reader is intended to shiver at the thought that Kevin has been hurting other children all along, torturing his sister and plotting against his parents. Kevin is the ultimate fantasy psychopath as his baby sister is his major victim. The fact that he becomes apparently remorseful and affectionate at the end of the book is completely unbelievable and makes nonsense of the previous 460 pages. I think it is a nasty piece of work.
