What are
they saying
about The
Opposite of Life?
"It’s
certainly a most
unusual vampire novel. Lissa Wilson, librarian, geek, and young woman
about town,... seems to be the magnet for
trouble. ... She’s a wonderful character; not because
she’s an heroic supergirl, but because she rings true. If you can get
this book, do." - Charlaine Harris, author of the Sookie Stackhouse
books. Read Charlaine Harris' blog here.
"A
well made plot
with a killer (literally) ending" - Crime author Kerry Greenwood.
"For
me, there
are three kinds of books: books I don’t like, books I like and books I
like so much that I can’t wait to push them on my friends saying, “You
HAVE to read this!” The Opposite of Life? Well, that goes in the last
category."
- JM, The Book Stacks. Read the whole review here.
"...an absolute
humdinger of a first
novel." - Prudence Russell, Aurealis. Read the whole
review here.
"Harris shows a deft
descriptive touch
and an eye for setting... Melissa has the right combination of
fragility
and sass to carry the story." - Jason Nahrung, The Courier-Mail,
9
February
2008. Read the whole review here
(pdf).
"There's
plenty of blood and gore in Harris' book, plenty of violence as well,
but you don't get dragged into the depths of despair for long. There's
lots of humour in the mix as well for counterbalance. Lissa's humour is
very dry and dead-pan (pardon the pun) while The Guy in the Hawaiian
shirt is her perfect foil." - Edwina Harvey, Andromeda

Life

I remember screaming
very loudly.
In TV shows, that’s where the ad break comes in, while some ninny is
screaming
her head off. No ad breaks in life, though.
