THIS WAS WRITTEN BY A DUDE! Again. Better than the movie.

This book was a beautiful exploration of family, sisters, love and loss. At first, I found it a little slow moving, and at about the 80 page point there was a character who had been mentioned before, but not in a way that I could remember who he was or what had happened to him (turns out, the author chose to carefully bring him in, bit by bit and that was part of the way the story was written.) It really bothered me that I couldn't remember who he was and I spent an hour or so looking back through the pages I'd read, trying to figure it out. Once I realized that I hadn't forgotten anything, I quickly dove back into the story and was captivated by the love story that began to unfold.

Not appropriate to read. (I haven't read it. This is my reminder not to based on the advice of someone I trust.)
Started this a few days ago and it's not like the run-of-the-mill zombie book. Very beautifully written and is more about how we can't let go of our dead than our dead coming back to snack on our brains. But I'm not even half way into it; who knows what weird things might happen later on. I'm really enjoying it so far. ******************************* John Linqvist knows how to write beautiful prose, but I don't understand the purpose behind Handling the Undead. I don't even know why the dead started living--or "reliving"--again. At the end there's a lot of wondering about souls: do we have them?; where do they go when we die? This isn't such a big question for people who already believe in souls. The book follows three families and how they deal with their reliving: A man who lost his wife in a car accident very recently; a grandfather and mother who lost an 8-year-old grandson and son a month before; and an elderly woman whose husband comes back. Of all the stories I think the one about the 8-year-old boy is most interesting. The grief they feel is palpable, and the love and care they show the boy is touching. I thought the old religious lady and her granddaughter--both of whom have "the shine"--were dull cliches. When I finished reading the last page, I kept flipping around wondering if I missed some cataclysmic ending. Nope. It was pretty much not there. So this is a book with a great beginning, an OK middle, and an anti-climatic end. Handling the Undead doesn't come close to touching the brilliance of Let the Right One In.

The Bishop in my ward planned each sacrament meeting for the month at the beginning of March and gave all the speakers this book and a chapter to speak about. They were Great talks with some really good quotes from the book! I think it will definitely be an interesting book.

Interesting, but overall somewhat depressing, story.

Once I got used to the lack of quotation marks, I liked this book. The first part, which focused on thirteen year-old Wendy's grief over the loss of her mother in the World Trade Center on September 11, drew me in immediately. I especially liked the chapter in which she finds herself attending the funeral of a firefighter she didn't even know. The second part, in which Wendy abandons her life in New York to live in California with her biological father, didn't quite measure up to the first. Nonetheless, I found the stories of the secondary characters that Wendy meets in California -- Violet, Todd, Carolyn, and Alan and Tim -- almost as interesting as the central story.

I'm sure that many Plath fans will have read Birthday Letters and wished that they could have been a fly on the wall of Sylvia and Ted's marriage. This collection of reflective and emotionally charged poetry will be the closest any of us will come to gaining such a private insight. Although it's painfully clear in these works that Hughes loved Plath dearly, there's also an uneasy tone of sadness and judgement which made some of the poems especially difficult to read. Birthday Letters is a book that I'm glad I spent the time reading but not something I would choose to read again.

Los libros tienden a provocar mini obsesiones conmigo, así que tengo que tener cuidado al leerlos de vez en cuando. Bueno, casi todo me provoca mini obsesiones, así que un libro es tan bueno como cualquier otro. "Word Freak" me hizo jugar Scrabble, algo que nunca antes había hecho en mi vida. También me convenció rápidamente de que nunca sería un jugador de campeonato de Scrabble, por lo que no tuve que preocuparme de que esta obsesión se convirtiera en algo serio. El relato de Fastis sobre las profundidades a las que los jugadores de Scrabble llegan a ser los mejores es esclarecedor, y los personajes que flotan en el libro son extravagantes, entretenidos y, en ocasiones, más que un poco lamentables. No es un libro sobre juegos tan bueno como "Positivamente 5th Street", pero "P.5.S." trata sobre Hold'em poker, un juego mucho más intrínsecamente interesante para mí. Te recomendaría ambos, si tener algún interés en los juegos en los que se basan.
