-Blood and Chocolate- Review
"-Blood and Chocolate- Review"
During a gastrointestinal flare of pain, blood, and fecal-like mucus being cruelly evacuated, when I believed Tony Romo might win it all and wink deliciously at the lascivious ladies, I read "Blood and Chocolate" and was not rewarded with what I wanted. I wanted, of course, a bit quirky mixed in, and heavily. For what is a psychotically-driven tale of things macabre without a neurotic personality living within the dynamic danger? Nevertheless, I liked it, minus the fact that my intestinal tract was giving way.
Meat Boy. Don't underestimate a Meat Boy, especially if he has a crazy compulsion to slay werewolves, like Jango Fett besting many Jedi. And the epic classicism of the Young Adult horror/love story is amazingly alive. The pull of the quintessential wolf, driving one to dreams of hunger and pack synergy. It's in there. Classically--in every form of the word. So, if you're reading about werewolves under Full Moon or any neon brag of moonbeam; next, purchase this book. Totally.
