Negative Positive
Title: Boring like all get out.
Review: Heart of a jaguar by Marc Talbert was heart-stopping, as in animals? (and humans?) hearts were prematurely stopped. This book was about a Mayan boy named Balam. Balam was fourteen years old in the middle of a draught in the year 1200 or so, and the whole novel is about his village trying to please the gods so they would send rain. There is a lot of bloodletting and fear of forest spirits who will try to capture you and haul you off to eat you. In the end Balam?s wife to be gets snitched away by people from another village and in an attempt to exact revenge Balam kills a jaguar, which makes him superior to everyone else, so his village sacrifices him. The end.I did not like this book because it was pretty boring and didn?t really have a plot. It was also way too bloody to be in any way likable.
