Svetlana Molodchenko svmol — Starts out slowly but becomes more engaging at the halfway point. Goodman's descriptive passages are enjoyable.

John Mechan johnmech — Max Lucado - I'm a fan.

Dennis Sieber dsieber — Wow this was a great book! It took forever to read because it is extremely long. I was engaged the whole time even though it took three months to read. I am excited for the next one and Hollywood is making this into a movie. It is a time travel book and that was the only hard part to grasp for me. I can't imagine going back in time and having to deal with the culture and hygiene. Definately worth the read and fun!

Orhan Umut _rhan_ogutgolgesi — Very different- beautifully written in a style reminiscent of charles Dickens AND Neil Gaiman plus a touch of Jane Austen.

Uko Post ukopost — This had got to be one of my all time favorite books. I have read it multiple times. It is about a girl who was adopted into a rich family. She feels different from them. At night when she can't sleep, she goes downstairs and looks at the painting of the daughter the family lost. Very good mystery book.

Mukesh Mistry adeptdesignstudio8ee — I had the kind of high hopes for "Dude You're a Fag" that were bound to leave me disappointed. It would've been impossible for the author to exhaustively cover absolutely everything I hoped she would about masculinity and sexual identity development in high school in a couple hundred pages. What's left, then, is a nonfiction work that is at times fascinating and at others deeply frustrating with its lack of information. Pascoe sets out to earn her PhD by studying masculinity within the dynamics of a small town California high school. It's racially diverse and indeed some of her most interesting observations come in the different way that masculinity manifests between White and Black students. (It is a little disappointing that while students of most ethnic backgrounds identify as either Black or White, there's a third socially recognized ethnic group of Latino students who speak no English, but Pascoe fails to interact with them at all since she doesn't speak Spanish. She didn't have a Spanish-speaking friend to help her out? It seems like even interviewing one or two students would've added quite a bit to the study.) The real highlight of the book was the chapter about masculine girls in the school, which primarily documented two very distinct cliques - the popular "basketball girls" who identified primarily as nonwhite and included open lesbians among their ranks, while adopting some of the clothing and culture of straight Black men, and the "GSA girls" who included mostly white lesbians who identified with more of a goth or punk culture. Her observations were fascinating, although I did take some issue with the treatment of the basketball girls' harassment of other female students as mostly harmless. Maybe I've been reading too much Julia Serano for my own good, but my immediate thought was that these girls weren't bending gender stereotypes so much as adopting masculine behaviors and deriving a higher social status from demonizing femininity. When describing how they threw food at other students in the cafeteria, Pascoe dismisses it as almost cute while elsewhere regarding the hazing of the school's only openly gay student Ricky, who has to change routes home because people throw things at him, as tragic and hateful. I am not arguing with the latter point, but failed to see the basketball girls' hazing of feminine students as quite so butch-girls-will-be-butch-girls benign. Perhaps the main area that I wish the book had covered more was how gay males functioned within the school's social structure. The story of Ricky is thorough and heartbreaking, but while Pascoe mentions at least one closeted gay male (one of the drama students), she never actually talks about his experiences beyond that. Since a good part of the book is devoted to how the administrators and school institution reinforce heterosexuality as normative behavior, it would have been nice if her writing and/or research had touched upon what effects of this structured endorsement had upon gay (and for that matter lesbian) students. Unfortunately beyond Ricky's story there's nothing here about gay men, perhaps the biggest disappointment of the book. The very issue of school as structure enforcing heterosexist norms, however, is mentioned repeatedly but never really defended well. Surely society as a whole has enough heterosexually-focused institutions that the high school isn't imposing assumptions on students they won't encounter elsewhere, and while that doesn't defend the practice there's also little time devoted to why the existence of gender-coded graduation gowns, differences in attire expectations between genders, school dances, or even the proclaimed horror of one teacher posting photos her students had given her from their school dances on a wall in the classroom (called by the author a "shrine to heterosexuality") actually hurts students, particularly ones who are not heterosexual. On the whole "Dude You're a Fag" was a fascinating read once I escaped the book's tedious first chapter, which is loaded down with sociology jargon (I'll be happy to never again read a book that contains the word "post-structuralist"). In particular the ways in which sexism and heterosexism were institutionalized and the suggested policy changes made the book a worthwhile read for anyone in a position to change these things. Seeing how ineffective anti-harassment laws can be in the context of school teachers and administrators unwilling to enforce them was sobering, and realizing how different Ricky's fate might have been had he been part of a stable, wealthy family willing to insist upon laws made to protect him being held up made me wonder how at-risk gay teens can be helped effectively.

Yuly Andrea yahc_c — If you have never heard of "The Frog Prince" I am very surprised."The Princess Frog" is a movie that i bet most of you saw. but this story was written after the book and before the movie. the princess Emma has a queen for a mom and a nice witch for an aunt. princess Emmas mother invited prince Jorge to visit and mad an arranged mariage for Princess Emma and Prince Jorge. princess Emma did not like Prince Jorge so she ran off to the swamp. there she met and obnoxious frog named Eadric and he persuaded her to kiss him. she (then) turns into a frog hoping to find a witch to uncast the spell they hop through the swamp. this is a most funny, scary, and enjoyable story. full of fun bug eating adventure with capture, near death experiences and friends. i really enjoyed it. the author E.D. Baker is very skilled. i recommend this book to girls. i certainly loved it.
