The beginning of James Bond! I actually really liked it, although having seen the movie some of the major surprises were, well, not so surprising. But it was good. Fairly short, and less sex and swearing than I was afraid it might have, and it answered some questions that were left over from the movie in my mind. I enjoyed it as a light read.

Jennifer's life has recently shifted completely when she receives news that her grandmother Samantha was injured during a fall and is now in a coma. Jennifer races back to the small, lake-side town in which she grew up. As Jennifer deals with regular visits with her grandmother and settles back into life in the community, she also gets a chance to get to know a little bit more about her grandmother. This is because of a series of letters that Jennifer finds in Sam's house. They are addressed to her, and share with Jennifer the decades-long love story Sam lived in secret. Sam's hope is that Jennifer will learn how important it is to make the time for love so you can recognize it and experience it to the fullest before it is lost. This lesson comes at an appropriate time since Jennifer is reconnecting with a childhood friend named Brendan. He is a doctor that has given up his practice to come back home for the summer. They quickly rekindle their friendship and find that it has developed into something more. It seem like fate brought them together, and it is just in time. This is another of Patterson's romance/sad books that would do Nicholas Sparks proud. I enjoyed Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas more. I think it is because it seemed to be less rife with overly clichéd attempts at tearing at the heartstrings that are evident in this book. It was an enjoyable story, but it was a little overdone. With that said, it still gave me the sniffles from time to time.

I remember really enjoying this book, but not many actual details. It may be time for a re-read!

Chúng Mình Đi Đâu Thế? - Khám Phá Trung Quốc Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

For some reason I had a harder time getting into this book than 'White Cat.' Although I loved the set up at the end. It will be interesting to see how Cassel handles his new circumstances in the next book.

Victoria is the Buffy in Victorian times! (Or whatever that specific era is called. I can't get any of them straight.) This was a great first new book. I admit, I was pulled in by the cover and because my DH pointed it out. When I found out the author is from Ann Arbor, I had to buy it to support her! Great new vampire series for me.

Những Điều Cực Đỉnh Về Các Giai Thoại Và Quan Niệm Lầm Lẫn - Sự Thật Giật Mình Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Guy Campbell

One would expect that a book that calls itself Modern Dying and the Ways We Grieve would discuss just such things. Perhaps it would be an anthropological study or, as the misleading library information on its credits page suggests, explore the “social aspects” of death. Instead, Death’s Door is an uneasy mixture of literary analysis and personal...I hesitate to say essay, because the thoughts, events, and remembrances in the memoir-like portions of the book are rarely complete. It is as if the author is driven to confess the dark thoughts that plagued her after her husband’s death and yet can’t bring herself to actually provide the reader with enough information to actually grasp what happened to him and how she felt about it. Or perhaps, having covered that information in another book, she didn’t feel the need to recap it here. Either way, the personal parts of each chapter are much more compelling than the readings Gilbert offers of the snatches of poems reprinted here. The usual suspects are trotted out again and again: Thomas Hardy, Sylvia Plath, D. H. Lawrence, William Carlos Williams. She has limited herself to poetry (and occasionally prose) that directly addresses the author’s loss. Why that means she’s limited to analyzing work that is generally 50 years old or more is less clear. She references Paul Monette and some of the other survivors of the AIDS plague without giving them as much weight as heterosexual survivors from earlier in the century. What this means, then, is that Gilbert’s definition of modern does not mirror mine. She mentions the effects of 9/11 on modern American only in the Preface and again in her final chapter, but the reference feels like an afterthought, perhaps suggested by an editor in an attempt to attach the book to the present. Taking the book as it stands, I would have preferred to read the source poems Gilbert discusses, rather than picking my way through her selected passages — a line here, a stanza there. I feel that I don’t know enough context from the poems or from the poets’ lives to know if the citations actually fit Gilbert’s theories. And because she won’t be honest about her own life, I don’t trust her to be honest in what she’s sharing. Although I have a reasonably large library devoted to death, dying, and grief — including several anthologies of poetry on the subject — I did not find Death’s Door: Modern Dying and the Ways We Grieve a useful addition of my collection. Perhaps, if you’re a death-obsessed English major who misses the days of being lectured to, this is the book for you. Otherwise, don’t be lured by its title.

Trò Chuyện Với Cõi Vô Hình Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

April, May, and June start school in a new town shortly after their parents divorce. When things start to get strange, the girls remember the special abilities they use to have when they were younger. The girls band together to use their powers and stop something terrible from happening. A great book about sisterly love, but would be stronger with a little more history about their abilities.
