Kyle Jones-phillipson _ — After reading The Graveyard Book, it is certainly easy to understand how it won the Newbery Award for 2009. While I certainly haven't read everything that was published last year, of the books I did read, it would be my pick for the Newbery. The Graveyard Book begins with a baby escaping almost certain death as his family is murdered. The baby somehow makes it to a nearby graveyard where the inhabitants promise to protect him and raise him. They name him Nobody Owens, Bod for short, and he spends the next several years of his life growing up among the dead. But the one who wanted to murder Bod is still out to get him, and when Bod is a teenager it will become a life or death battle.

Gleidson Costa _leidson_omunicador — One of the best books that I have read in the past several years. Based in fact, written in a novel-esque tone, and embellished with source-based details, the book contrasts the true wonder of the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago with the horror of America's "first serial killer." I found the book well-written and clever in its juxtaposition of history and entertainment. I would recommend it to anyone as something a little bit different that leaves you with a lot to think about. A few points that were particularly interesting for me: - The spirit of innovation: the late 19th century was a time when great value was put on building and besting. The entire country was seized with outdoing the previous Parisian Exposition and Chicago was seized with the civic honor that comes with fulfilling the dreams of a country. - A time of "titans": The innovators who worked toward the above-referenced smatter nearly every page of this work. - A love story to Chicago: Being from the midwest, this was a particularly gripping thread of the book. From the description of the smell rendered by the slaughter of pork that was Chicago's major industry at the time to the preparation of the fairgrounds to the corrupt political system to the inferiority complex inspired by New York, the "Second City" is the main character of this book. - Economic despair: Interestingly, as I read this in the middle of 2009, the descriptions of the stock market crashes, government intervention in the banks, labor unrest, and rampant unemployment hit home. In a way, it's comforting to know that people have survived it before and will survive it again this time. - From whence comes pure evil: The character and actions of Holmes, the charming, cold-blooded killer, never do answer the question of where this type of evil originates....maybe because we never really do have an answer.
