Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (20th Anniversary Editions - 4 Books - Hardcover ) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: J. K. Rowling

With all the trouble Kitty has gotten into since she was turned into a werewolf, it's hard to imagine that it could get any worse. But there's a reason why book #9 is named KITTY'S BIG TROUBLE—and by the end you'll understand. But, instead, let's go back to the beginning. In the last book, KITTY GOES TO WAR, she learned about the U.S. government's use of werewolves in combat, and she asked herself: how long have they been doing it, and who else in U.S. history could have been hiding their own supernatural origins? These questions lead her on a strange chase across state lines and eventually points clues to Roman, a very old vampire she's crossed paths with before. So is it coincidence that vampire ally Anastasia calls Kitty the very next day asking to help stop Roman from acquiring an ancient and powerful artifact? Vaughn does stretch the connections here a little thinly, as Kitty, her husband Ben, and friend Cormac, traipse through Kansas and then San Fransisco. But once they get to California, and Anastasia explains why she asked for their help, then things really get moving. And from there on out the pace moves quickly, and in a direction you won't expect. Set in San Fransisco's Chinatown, most of the action actually happens underground, in a series of mazes that shouldn't exist. In rooms that shouldn't exist. That houses people who Kitty once thought of as myths. But it's less the setting than the people who will keep you reading. I enjoy Kitty and Ben's relationship more and more. We get to learn more about Cormac and the sorceress spirit he houses in his body, and their unusual partnership. Anastasia and Roman, as vampires, are old and mysterious and rather self-absorbed, so it's hard to really enjoy them as characters. There are other, new characters who are fun to read about, but I don't want to spoil your fun. Sure the title alludes to the movie Big Trouble in Little China, since they are both set in the same city/neighborhood. But it's more than that. Something happens, and Kitty is given a new responsibility that's bigger than ever. Sure KITTY'S BIG TROUBLE is a good, consistent addition to the series, but in a lot of ways it's really a segue of what Vaughn promises will follow. And Kitty doesn't disappoint. Recommended Age: 14+ Language: A handful of instances Violence: The usual smattering, but not particularly gory Sex: Vaguely referenced by a married couple, otherwise just some cuddling

Tử Vi Đẩu Số - Thực Dụng Tinh Hoa Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Trần Đang Ninh

A long running anthology series with stories set during the Man-Kzin Wars in Larry Niven’s Known Space universe. Niven started this thing up because while the Wars were very significant in the history of Known Space, he himself was not adept at writing about conflict. Niven has written some of the stories but most are by other authors. The writing ranges from average to excellent. Recommended if you are a fan of Known Space. http://www.books.rosboch.net/?p=1026

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Đỗ Hoàng Toàn

I enjoyed this book. It read like an Afternoon Special, but that's okay, I liked afternoon specials. From the beginning you knew there was going to be tragedy and a lesson learned. There was a lot packed in to this book yet it moved quickly and I still felt a connection to the characters.

Ca Dao Tục Ngữ Bằng Tranh Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nhiều Tác Giả

A silly fun book about another girl who has her heart broken by her guy and how her best friend helps her through her misfortune. Declan, the boyfriend, has staked everything...home, savings...on his dot.coms that are going belly up save for the soft porn site that he used Emily's saucy photo on, without Emily's knowledge. Things bust open when Emily discovers her "bum" on the Internet...she even loses her job as a school teacher. Didn't disappoint although I could "see" the ending coming. If you want a happy ending, this is a book for you. British author. Previous book For Better For Worse was on Kelly Ripa's reading list...don't hold that against it.

Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Sheryl Sandberg

I admit, (*gasp, hangs head in shame*) the extent of my familiarity with the amazing Erin Brockovich is that which I learned from the movie released in May 2000, “Erin Brockovich”, starring Julia Roberts. While from the movie alone, I have a great respect and admiration for Erin, up until now I have never endeavored to learn more and for that, I have regrets. Additionally, CJ Lyons is a “new to me” author and with Rock Bottom, I have but glimpsed her magnificent talent. With a writing style that is near flawless, Lyons is a master at creating a fast-paced and seamless read that makes it almost impossible to put down. Flipping page after page, this particular reader found it very hard not to finish Rock Bottom in one sitting. An empowering tale complete with triumph and tragedy. AJ Palledino is my kind of hero! Life may have stacked the odds against AJ, but when it comes to defending something she believes is, there ain’t no mountain high enough to stop her! With a heroine that will steel your heart, the magnificent writing duo of Brockovich and Lyons will treat readers to an amazing tale of one woman’s fierce determination to overcome the odds and fight for what’s right. In a fast paced, wonderfully suspenseful adventure, readers are treated to an intriguing tale of environmental activism, murder, mystery, love, forgiveness, triumph and sadly, tragedy.

Thuyền Đến Đầu Cầu Tự Nhiên Thẳng Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Mạc Hề Trừu Phong

I like listening to this series. Lisette Lecat does a great job reading them. They are not overly suspenseful or anything so you don't feel like you absolutely have to listen every second to get to the end and find out what happens. A couple of them are actually a bit weak on plot, I think. But they are entertaining and give one a bit to think about as they comment a great deal on society and its strengths and weaknesses. Fun, too!
