Já entrámos no século XXI e é chocante constatar que a escravatura ainda se insinua por aí. Contudo, encontra-se eximiamente camuflada! Overall? I didn't enjoy a single aspect of this book. The characters were so bland I couldn't muster the energy to remember their names. The romance was underdeveloped and the plotline was weak. The dares were cringe-worthy, rather than thrilling. I got no sense of urgency or suspense. It was boring and poorly written. I don’t think I’d bother with anything else this author has written. She is problematic because she staged her own suicide but made sure she was found on time, just so she would get more attention than her best friend, for once?!? I know when I just meet some dude and get paired up to do dares like “pretend you’re a prostitute” in a bad neighborhood I am ONLY going to be thinking how I’d like to cram my tongue down that rando’s throat. That’s probably just me, though. Anyway, definitely not the worst thing I’ve ever read and has the possibility of making a decent transition to the big screen . . .I still can't figure out why so many of these dares surrounded nudity or sex. One I could overlook and be like "fair enough" but 3 of the 5 dares in this book are sleazy as hell, especially when we consider that the main character is 17 and is being put in positions where she can be sexualised by men of undisclosed ages. All of which would be totally fine if the book was trying to make a point about sexualising underage girls but it's literally just for entertainment purposes and to make the dares "high stakes" which once again... they were not. The prizes weren't all that great either. These days, I still love Hawaii, but have found my home under the moody skies of the Pacific Northwest.

Nerve: Self-Help Accessing the Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve: Self-Help

A pretty fast paced and intense story all the way throughout. The only thing really for me to not rate this one a bit higher was I wasn't completely sold on the ending dares. Looks like the movie is changing the action a bit so now after reading the story I'm looking forward to seeing this one played out on the big screen. This month, my book review is Nerve by Jeanne Ryan, a YA book with a great concept and a lot of moral dilemmas for the characters. Read on for my thoughts on Nerve. a b c d Bell, Crystal.

This is a personal failing of mine as comparing trauma isn’t fair because trauma impacts people differently. But I’m noting it because it certainly did color my perception of the book and is a bias I readily admit. Vee must close her eyes and sing “One-Hundred Bottles of Beer on the Wall” loudly until another player Ian comes in, stands in line, and buys her a latte. Ian’s dare is to get her to say that he was her “best lover ever”, which Vee exclaims to the crowd as they both win their prizes. Both have now gained enough fame from Watchers to have a live video crew, much to the dismay of Tommy, who is also jealous of the romantic moves between Vee and Ian.

Alright, here's the deal: if a book is going to feature nothing but senseless characters, there needs to be: Vee es otro personaje que pasa sin pena ni gloria porque pareciese que un M&M tuviese más cerebro que ella. Sus motivaciones, personalmente, me daban era grima. I'd been looking forward to this one for a while, based on my experience with Eva Holland's magazine work, but I have to say it surprised me. I had expected a largely interview-based examination of the way fear works on the human mind and body, and there are certainly plenty of spots where that's exactly what's provided. What I did not expect was the depth of personal experience involved. Kroll, Justin (January 27, 2015). "Dave Franco and Emma Roberts to Star in YA Thriller 'Nerve' ". Variety.

Partly because there's a part of your brain that desperately wishes something akin to Nerve was real (if you're a demented Gryffindor, at least), even knowing full-well that you wouldn't actually participate. And partly it's because Nerve augments virtual reality and brings it into our world the same way we've seen other games do recently (*cough*), so it's both prophetic and relevant, and also - if we're being honest - just so exciting.
