Author: Amanda Quick
Title : The Perfect Poison
Star : 8.5/10


My Comment :Amanda Quick is one of my fav. author.I like all her story very dark mystery.This is the third book in Arcane Society Series. You can see all the hero and heroin from book 1 and 2 make and experience in it. Well, I actually dont read the first book n the second but been looking through page.It quite interesting, I guess. The hero Caleb is very unusual hero.He thought him becoming crazy just like his ancestor.The heroin Lucinda is very brave n stubborn.(Well actually all her heroin always like this,right?)She is very good in detecting poison.We can learn something useful when we read this novel. The climax is kinda good but I just hope the ending will more dramatic.The ending is just plain simple.After all,this is a good book.

Summary :
Victorian London holds many secrets. But none are so closely guarded as those of the shadowy Arcane Society. In her suspenseful new novel, New York Times–bestselling author Amanda Quick delves into this underworld of passion, greed, and powers that lie beyond this realm . . .

P lagued by rumors that she poisoned her fiancé, Lucinda Bromley manages to live on the fringes of polite society, tending her beloved plants—and occasionally consulting on a murder investigation. For the notorious botanist possesses a unique talent: She can detect almost any type of poison, especially ones that have their origins in the botanical kingdom.

But the death of a lord has shaken Lucinda to her core. At the murder scene, she picks up traces of a poison containing a very rare species of fern. So rare, in fact, that only one specimen exists in all of England—and it was stolen from her conservatory just last month.

To keep her name out of the inquest and to find the murderer, Lucinda hires fellow Arcane Society member Caleb Jones who runs a psychical investigation agency. A descendant of the founder of the Society, Jones is very skillful at protecting its secrets—and frighteningly good getting at the truth. Immediately, Lucinda senses both a raw power and an undeniable intensity in the imposing man.

But as a nearly overwhelming desire blooms between Caleb and Lucinda, they are drawn into the dark heart of a deadly conspiracy that can be traced to the early days of the Arcane Society —and to a legacy of madness that could plunge Caleb into the depths of his own tortured soul. . . .

My Comment: Im really busy and in the same time Im bored. So I gonna right a review about my favourite actress in my childhood days. Vicki Zhao Wei, I like her since I saw her in Huan Zhu Ge Ge. She's so young that time now she's already 30 something. I love this album.Her song is great actually she hav many great album.

01 This track of course good. Slow song but no so slow. You can hear the beautiful of her voice. She sound so harmony in this song kinda really slumber when she sing this songs. The last part you can hear some children voice with her. The chourus also smooth and really balance with the song.

02 The song is slow but not a boring one!!!The first melody already capture my heart. The intro just so sad and so relax. The chorus is slow and steady. You can hear Vicki carry her song with grace. I really like the melody its kinda like an old song and the playing a flute within it is the best!! Overall to the end this song is perfect.

03 Its a slow song but I really not into it. I think its a opening song to one of Vicki drama but I forget the title.Maybe a  'Moment In Peking' if Im not wrong. The chorus is  very good balance of melody and harmony.Vicki can really make the song really felt relax. Its a good song but Im not into it.

04 You can hear Vicki said something at first. Its also a slow ballad. I kinda like this one because I really like the chorus. You can hear she sing from in a low tune to a higher tone. Very sad song as the tile said. The melody also sad so we can felt the pain in the song.

05 Very catchy song. I never hear this part of Vicki before. Its kinda weird to me. Vicki rap??Haha..Its not so bad but its kinda wird to me. Never heard it before.

06 Also a catchy song and Im neutral in this song. Nothing bad to say just it not my type.

07 Yup again a catchy song. It kinda pop I guess. I think I like this than a previous one. I dunno why. Just its sound too catchy and sound balance with it too.

08 Again a catchy song that I not into it.Haha

09 It a very slow song hmm..i guess its ok but the previous one is better.

10 If you think the song suffering is sad this melody is soooo sad and I think I want to cry.

11 Its a sad song. I dunno how to comment it. But its good.

CD Tracklist

01 소원을 말해봐 (Genie)
02 Etude
03 여자친구 (Girlfriend)
04 남자친구 (Boyfriend)
05 동화 (My Child)
06 1 년 後 (One Year Later)

My Comment: I'm not a fans of this group neither an anti (which i see many anti this group, why?) I listen to their song and their so its okay. I really like Into the World and Way To Go. Genie, hmm...at first I hear it I dont like it, ithink Gee its much better. After two or three I hear it. I think its okay actually but its just not great as Gee or Into The World. The song quite annyoing me at first with their talking. I still cannot catch who's part. I just know Tae Yeon voice. That girl really  have a good voice. The part the I REALLY like when their stop then Tiff said 'DJ PUT THE BACK ON'. Not Tiff part but Tae Yeon part after that!!Gosh sTae Yeon really can sing high note. This a catchy song and I like it after 5 or 6 time I hear it.

Etude - This song is bored!! I think I almost sleep.Haha.I think I skip into the chorus. The chorus just nothing special. Overall nothing special about this, really. Not so strong.

Girlfriend - The first beat really got my attention. It gonna be a fast song. Yeah it is. The chorus its quite intresting with a  harmony voice of them. But it just like etude not strong enough. I think this song like a cutie-cutie version. Its kinda childish??Hmm but this song not so bored like Etude.

Boyfriend - Suprisingly, I like this song!!! I love the chorus 'boyfriend, ah, ah'. Some part they will me a childish voice that i find it intresting. Its a very enjoying to hear this song! Recomended.

My Child - At first I thought it was ballad and slow song. The music at the begining make me think like that.No.No. It also a happy song but not to energetic. It also a good song coz their voice sound harmony and one.

One Year Later - Hmm. Not a fans of Jessica fans and Onew. But, this song its good. Ballad. Not to powerful ballad. but really pleasing in the ear to hear it. Onew, really sound great in this.Hmm, I thought Jong Hyun is the best singer in Shinee but Onew also okay, I think. He really suprise me. Jessica really amaze me when she start singing a high note,very good although I still prefer Tae Yeon than her. I think I will digg some Shinee song. The best song in this mini album. Really Recomended.
