Graham Joyce - The Tooth Fairy

[Kell]

Author: Graham Joyce
ISBN # 0312868332

In a word; bizarre. A nightmarish tale of innocence corrupted, minds infiltrated & lives turned up-side-down as childhood gives way to adulthood.

To tell the truth, I'm not altogether sure I understood the point of the story, but I can't say that made any difference in my enjoyment of the tale which is fiendishly well-told.

If anyone ever thought the Tooth Fairy was nice, they should read this book - it will give them an entirely new view on the subject!

HEY :) :) :)

My son read that (The Oxford Reading Tree series for 6 yr olds one)

I really thought that's funny!!

I get the feeling it's a different book - this one's definitely for adults & features a bit of sex & a lot of violence...

I enjoyed 'The Tooth Fairy', not at all what I thought it would be like.

To tell the truth, I'm not altogether sure I understood the point of the story, but I can't say that made any difference in my enjoyment of the tale which is fiendishly well-told.

LOL same here, I kept waiting for the 'point' to make itself known :mrgreen:

Slowly, The Tooth Fairy teaches Sam to make mischief at school, then insists that Sam have his friend Terry sleep over. That same night, Terry's father shoots his wife, his other children, and himself ...

:shock:

Well, it's got pretty good reviews on Amazon, and sounds intriguing, so I've ordered from one of the marketplace sellers.

This site is doing my bank balance no good at all! LOL

[Inanna]

Its different thats for sure :mrgreen:

[Kell]

Certainly different - I'm not sure I've ever read anything else even remotely like it...

[Maureen]

Wow Kell. That is really + + for the book, as you have read so many. Intriguing!
