Rendition To Books Bleeding Violet (Portero Universe)

Love can be a dangerous thing... Hanna simply wants to be loved. With a head plagued by hallucinations, a medicine cabinet full of pills, and a closet stuffed with frilly, violet dresses, Hanna’s tired of being the outcast, the weird girl, the freak. So she runs away to Portero, Texas in search of a new home. But Portero is a stranger town than Hanna expects. As she tries to make a place for herself, she discovers dark secrets that would terrify any normal soul. Good thing for Hanna, she’s far from normal. As this crazy girl meets an even crazier town, only two things are certain: Anything can happen and no one is safe.

Crit Of Books Bleeding Violet (Portero Universe)

Original Review HEREYou are not welcome to Portero, Texas, unless you have a thick skin and you are here to stay. With hidden doors that open to other worlds (the Latin word for door: Porta) spread all over town and with all sorts of creatures (like leeches with tentacles for example and ghosts that live in the river and grant wishes if you can manage to breathe underwater enough to make the wish) crawling out or sucking you into them , Portero is definitely Weird Central of America. Its

Very interesting. You know the book I want to compare this to? Imaginary Girls. Not that the writing was anything near as haunting and lyrical, but because they both employ magic realism (though it's closer to fantasy here)(or maybe even SF - are those alternate universes, or what?) in a psychologically symbolic way, and both deal with uncomfortably intense family relationships.This had some severely grotesque moments, and there's one scene that I want to say crossed a line for me, and yet I

Taking this off my list for good.

This book could not have been more fun! It was dark, twisted, violent, and funny. The world is so ridiculously imaginative that the story was completely unpredictable. I'm feeling like I wrote the exact same review for the author's other book "Slice of Cherry" and they have a very similar feel. They are both set in the same strange town of Portero and the author has built an incredible world that I was dying to get back to. I sincerely hope that these two books aren't all we see of Portero and

This book was definitely one of a kind. It surprised me at every turn, from the very beginning. It had enticing starting chapters and immediately threw me into the story. I HAD to continue turning the next page. Hanna, the main character, is a very disturbed individual. I say "individual" because I've never stumbled across a character like hers anywhere. She's quick-witted, helplessly romantic, amazingly smart, unique, and die hard. Although, the story isn't one you would have imagined for such

I can't in good concious give this book more than 2 stars. Probably 1.5 would be more realistic. The ideas and "world" created were really unique and interesting....the creatures, the technology, the doors. And I did laugh once when the author wrote "Everyone seemed stunned to realize that the Mayor had gotten her ass kicked by a necklace".Otherwise-- I spent most of the time feeling very uncomfortable reading this book. I was wondering who this was written for? 12-17 year olds? I'm willing to

I had to wait a while to review this, because otherwise I would have snarled my way through a glowing review powered on my sheer fucking outrage over the crap people say about this book. Did you guys know that sixteen-year-old girls who are confident and sexually active are sluts? Oh, and people with mental illness should not be the protagonists of young adult fiction because its upsetting? Thats right, being exposed to people with disabilities is really unpleasant, and it shouldnt happen to
