Gothic Romance is, shall we say, not usually my thing. But Gothic Romance written by Sarah Rees Brennan, inspired by Miss Marple and Veronica Mars, and incorporating delightful one-liners and excellent world-building (not to mention some word play that paid off brilliantly)? That I can definitely go for! So when the Unspoken ARCs went out, I begged volunteered for one, and read it almost as soon as it arrived.

And then I forgot to review it on my lj (though I did blog about it, and SRB put it on her tumblr, and it's my most viewed blog of all time, so I don't think I missed the boat or anything). And now it's out and available, so I am putting the review on livejournal.

Doesn’t the name Lynburn just send shivers up your spine? I LOVE IT. )

9/10 for being hilarious and awesome, for giving me some amazing characters, for having a cover that is gorgeous, and for the ending, even if I don't react to it the way everyone else seems to.

I'm pretty sure I watched this vid when Becca posted it, and was so...in awe of it that I couldn't even comment with "....HOLY CRAP!". Clearly, I am a terrible internet friend, but I am making up for it a bit now by reccing the vid in question.

To say this vid is unconventional would be putting it mildly. To say it is genius would be an understatement. To attempt to describe it at all would be a waste of words.
