Books, movies, and even games have remade vampires for years. It’s been dragged out and overdone, so much to where it becomes boring and repetitive. I’ve always thought of these entertainments as overrated. A love story between mythical creatures and mortals have become predictable and an absolute cliche. Despite all of these opinions that could turn any face anyway from a story containing the drama between creatures with sharp teeth and pale skin, Reckoning is a sizable exception. Furthermore, It goes along with the grain of romance and drama, but pulls you in with different writing elements. The book isn’t anything close to predictable or cliche. It’s one of the best entertainment pieces about vampires to this day and age. To begin, the realism, now here me out; there is nothing realistic about vampires, but there is about hardships. Considering when Mary’s father fell ill, his death, the blindness love has the potential to cast upon certain individuals. A lot of this book was emotionally realistic. Everyone has dark days and when that bitter reality is applied to a characters in a fantasy world, it makes them sensible, even admirable. This goes along with having an emotional attachment to the characters. There is no good book where the readers don’t care about the people with the pages. Having an emotional attachment to characters is essential to loving a book. The writings in the journals between Quincey, Mary, and even Father Michael at the beginning, allows readers to…

My father started to come home later each night. First it was eight, then eleven, midnight, and eventually I wouldn’t even see him until the next morning. I would call him to see where he was, and the response I would get was “I have one more customer I need to sell a car to, I’ll be home soon. I love you, baby girl.” And of course I believed him and went about my business. But at that moment I didn’t realize that soon would mean the next day when I’m watching Rocket Power and eating my Frosted…

“the look which the eyes manifest, no matter what kind of eyes they are, is a pure reference to myself.” – Sartre Naturally, people find eye contact with strangers quite confronting and therefore do anything they can to try and avoid it. In order to avoid eye contact with people in public situations such as being on a bus, people will often look straight ahead at the back of the bus, towards the ground or even out the window. It is interesting to explore the reasons behind why people find eye…

This new place is so strange. The space is so tight; it’s damp and cold. The smell is strong cross between the smell of the oil of the ship and body odor of my fellow shipmates. The sound is almost complete silence besides a few whispers, among families. This path though sure is very uncertain. The scent and motion of the sea rocking the boat makes me a bit sick to my stomach. No one knows what’s next for him or her in this “Land of the Free”. This feeling of uncertainty began for us many months…
