Reviewed by Breanna F. for TeensReadToo.com 15-year-old Mackenzie Hill is still recovering from the loss of her mother when her father announces that they're moving to Israel because he was offered a position at a university there. Being torn away from the only home she has ever known in Toronto, Canada, is not Mackenzie's idea of a good time. Her father promises that if after three months she still doesn't like it there, she can move back to Canada, and she plans to do just that. But soon Mackenzie meets an American girl named Marla who has lived in Israel for a few years. They discover that they have something in common, and she helps to show Mackenzie around. In no time at all, the two become best friends. Also, Mackenzie discovers an amazingly cute boy named Nasir who works at a little shop near her apartment. Soon (even though Nasir's parents would forbid it if they knew) Mackenzie and Nasir start dating, little to the knowledge of Mackenzie's father and Nasir's parents. Soon the three-month period is up - and Mackenzie doesn't mention going back home. Things are going so well and Mackenzie is actually happy with her life. But one day something happens that will quickly change everything.. First off, I have to say that this book was pretty intense. There was indeed a point where I cried. The whole book moved at a pretty fast speed, and near the end it was action-packed, which was a surprise (but it was a good surprise). Not one part of MACKENZIE, LOST AND FOUND was dull to me. After the first few chapters of just Mackenzie talking it switches, and most every other chapter after that is a chapter told from Nasir's point of view. So the story is told from two different points of view, which I always like. Ms. Kerbel is a strong writer and I definitely look forward to reading something else by her. I'd recommend this book to anyone who's interested in what's going on in the Middle East, and to readers who don't mind a heart-wrenching story.

Cheever, John. FALCONER. (1977). ****. This was a re-read of a book I first read when it came out over thirty years ago. When I was reading the recent biography of Cheever by Blake Bailey, I was amazed at the praise heaped on this novel. I didn’t remember it as being all that great – at least not next to most of Cheever’s earlier work. So...I read it again. It’s not as good as his early work, though it is well written. I think all the hullabaloo was caused by the subject matter, which was very different from Cheever’s early stuff. It also contains lots of sexual passages, many of them homosexual – a topic that still had the ability to shock back then. Falconer is a prison. We don’t know where it is, but we can surmise that it is somewhere in New York state. A recent inmate is Farragut, a reasonably successful businessman and family man who has been interred for killing his brother. His claim is that he hit his brother once with a poker, who then fell down and hit his head on a corner of the fireplace. We don’t know for sure. At his trial he was accused of hitting his brother about twenty-two times. Farragut is also a heroin addict, and undergoes methadone treatment in prison. He knows he would kill for his daily fix, but is surprised when they tell him that he is clean: they have been giving him placebos for over a month. He’s in a cell block with a bunch of unusual characters, whose stories we learn over the course of the novel. Farragut does fall in love with one of the inmates, and their sexual encounters are provided in a semi-graphic way. His partner manages to escape from Falconer through an ingeneous plot – which is probably one of the best parts of the book. How it all ends is unanticipated, so I can’t share that without ruining the novel for you. You’ll just have to read it. Recommended.

Duyduğum bir soru var, “Ölü ya da diri beş kişiyle akşam yemeği yiyebilseydin, kim olurdu?” Daniel Menker'i partimde garson olarak göreceğime inanıyorum, böylece masanın etrafındaki konuşmanın komikliğin ve becerinin mükemmel bir kombinasyonu olacağını düşünüyorum. Menker yetenekli ve esprili. Bir konuşma için gerekli üç şeyin olduğuna inanır: merak, mizah ve küstahlık. Kitap bir deneme gibi yapılandırılmış, konuların bir kısmını kapsıyor ve her bireyin konuşmalarının hayati önemi ve kolektif dünyamız üzerindeki etkisi ve sahip olması gereken etkisi konusunda ikna edici bir argümanla sona eriyor. Kitabın en sevdiğim konularından biri, 1. İlk On Listeyi tartışarak konuşmayı bir sondajla kurtarmak için önerilerdi. 2. Kişi konuşmadı. 3. Peki sizin için ortalama bir gün nasıldır? Kalk ve ... ne yapmalısın? Son öneri kaçmayı önerir. Bir dil, bir f kelimesi. Favori Sözler Bildiğim kadarıyla *! () Ve lanetleme söz konusu olduğunda, *! () & *! () *! () & müstehcenlik cüzdanındaki tüm kelimeleri ucuz, günlük, sıradan olmayan iletişim için mi harcıyorsunuz? Bu kayıp bir savaş ve kayıp bir konuşma kaynağıdır. Başarılı bir iş görüşmesi (işe alınma ile sonuçlanan) çok önemli olabilir. Ancak, başvuranın daha iyi olabilecek farklı bir iş bulmasını da engelleyebilir. Bu da çok önemli… Başarılı bir üniversite röportajı (kabul edilmeyi sağlayan) çok önemli olabilir. Fakat aynı zamanda başvuranı başka bir kurumda Profesör Lifechanger tarafından öğretilme şansından mahrum edebilir. Teklifimiz veya başvurumuz veya anlaşmamız kabul edilirse neyi kaçırabileceğimizi bilmiyoruz, ancak başımıza gelenleri, bize olması gereken şey olarak anlatıyoruz. Ne ya da kimin istediğini kastediyorum. Gerçek şu ki, aşkta veya hayatta sadece şanslı ya da şanssız olmadıkça, hem rastgele hem de karakter, kaderimizi herhangi bir plan veya toplantı ya da röportajdan daha tam olarak belirleyecektir.
