Book Reviews of ViolinBook Review: Hmm... Summary: 2 Stars
I received this book as a gift when the mass market paperback first came out since my aunt knew I liked Anne Rice. I was rather excited, and the start is good. However, the book quickly became plodding. There's a wholoe bunch of characters which really add nothing to the story or plot. Ms. Rice wrote some beautiful sentences and paragraphs and this book did have some good parts. I found the story of the Violin (the instrument in the book) and its origins to be interesting and the best part of the book. However, this book fell flat overall. The premise was interesting enough, but this book simply was not as good as her earlier works.
If you're a die-hard Anne Rice fan/completist, you will want to read this book, but otherwise, it's simply not worth your time if you're looking for something worthwhile and enjoyable to read. Without Ms. Rice's name, this book just wouldn't stand on its own.
Book Review: I Luv the book !!! Summary: 5 Stars
It was hard for me to put the book down, I couldnt wait to find out what was going to happen next.
Book Review: I think I am the only one who like this book Summary: 4 Stars
I really enjoyed this book. I am a college student studying Music Performance, maybe thats why I like Violin. I love how she interjected the great masters like Beethoven and Paganini into the novel. And I felt so bad for Stefan. Like I said maybe, my musical backround had something to do with it.
Book Review: I'm still trying to read it! Summary: 1 Stars
Oh my God! I never read a book more boring than this one, I'm a avid reader also a fast one... I could read a 600 pages novel in 2 days... but I have more than a month trying to read the Violin, but always I got slept.. I'm a very good fan of Anne's writtings, but this time I feel betrayed... This story seems endless, too many details, never read anything so boring...So sorry, but it's the really, unpleasant true...
Book Review: It all depends on what you expect Summary: 3 Stars
Sad to say, I was expecting this book to be just as exciting and rich as the previous ones, and it wrecked my whole reading experience. But please do not compare this book to the previous ones. This may be a tale concerning the supernatural, but it concentrates more on the life of a woman who is alive and trying to get her life together. If you read it, do not expect it to be like the other novels!
