Title: THE MOST INTENSE, ENGROSSING BOOK I HAVE EVER READ!
Review: This book kept me glued to the page from beginning to end. I have read it many times and still Poppy's writing keeps my eyes attached to every word. She has a spectacular sense of how to write detail and her characterizations of Zach and Trevor make you feel like you've known them all your life. This is very similar to her charachters Ghost, Steve, and Nothing in her previous book, "Lost Souls", which tends to be toward the more horror genre side, dealing with vampires. "Drawing Blood" is about two beautiful boys who through the hardships of family secrets, abuse, abandonment, and murder learn how also it is possible to fall in love and be close to someone. Other books to look for would be Poppy Z. Brite's, "Lost Souls", "Exquisite Corpse" (a cannibalistic book, also with two men looking for love in strange place), her "Love in Vein"--volumes 1 and 2, and lastly, her "Swamp Foetus".
Is the review positive or negative?
