Cậu Bé Và Chú Chó Nhỏ Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Eva Ibbotson

** spoiler alert ** http://www.goodreads.com/images/layou... A nice bit of fluff romance, took two sittings to read it through. I liked how the neighbors all were hiding their 'identities' from the newbies. Good sherbet before I try to finish the Two Towers.

Khu Vườn Hạnh Phúc Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

** spoiler alert ** A decent true crime book. I did not know anything beforehand about this case as with most true crimes. When i started reading I did think the wife was crazy, sorry, but I was glad that in the end the author also agreed with me so far that how she "used" God in her life was very unhealthy. I liked how this author wrote about the dad in the beginning. He had a way of keeping the suspense open. He did not tell who did it in the beginning as so many other authors did. Do not understand that there are still people out there supporting dad. Where they found her it was obvious he did it. Proof enough to me. Give this book a 3.8

I have been hearing a lot about the Takeshi Kovacs series by Richard K. Morgan and after spending the first 6 weeks of the year or so engrossed in reading the first four books of the acclaimed fantasy series Songs of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin, I wanted to return to hard sci-fi instead of "swords and lords" fantasy. Morgan's Takeshi Kovacs books are well-known for their seamless melding of Raymond Chandler-esque hard-boiled detective noir atmosphere with the dizzying speculative future of William Gibson's cyberpunk. Since I'm a fan of both mysteries and science fiction this sounded good to me, but I was blown away by how well Morgan immerses the reader in his detailed future of a time where human life has become less valuable because of a technological advance called a "cortical stack" which allows the consciousness of people to be downloaded into a new body (chillingly referred to by Morgan as a "sleeve" with all the concomitant utilitarian and commonplace characteristics the word implies) after death. Peter F, Hamilton and other hard science-fiction authors have postulated similar technological solutions to physical death but Morgan's writing viscerally communicates to the reader what it would be like to have one person's brain downloaded into another person's body and additionally Morgan's plot depicts several of the complications and conundrums that can result. One of the first thoughts that comes to mind after reading the first chapter or two of Altered Carbon, is "This would make an amazing movie, like Blade Runner." In fact, Morgan's debut novel Altered Carbon, won the 2003 Phillip K. Dick Award for Best First Novel and has been optioned by Hollywood to become "a major motion picture." Takeshi Kovacs is an amazing creation. He is the ultimate anti-hero, a violent, highly trained elite soldier (called a United Nations Envoy) who is also sensitive to the plight of the powerless. And he is the main character in a book which is, as one reviewer on Goodreads described it, "A sex fueled scifi badass ex-super solider detective noir novel that rocks really hard." The plot gets incredibly twisted (in multiple senses of the word) at times and it is always hard to tell who the bad guys are from the really, really bad guys but in the end one is convinced by the innate goodness of Takeshi and always interested in seeing what will happen next. I can't wait to read the other two Takeshi Kovacs novels, Broken Angels and Woken Furies. Title: Altered Carbon Author: Richard K. Morgan Length: 375 pages. Publisher: Del Rey. Published: (1st Edition) March 4, 2003. OVERALL GRADE: A- (3.75/4.0). PLOT: A-. IMAGERY: A-. IMPACT: A-. WRITING: A.

It would have been nice if the book was larger in size as a whole. Some of the pictures were small and hard to see.

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Tony Brown

Certainly not my favorite children's book. It's okay and the story about the spotted rabbit is pretty good. But, I wouldn't spend the bucks for a nice hardback copy like I have.

This book was particularly interesting to me because it was about mental health and social work- but I think other people would like it too. I am a fan of Chris Bojalian.

Go Global: An MSME's Guide To Global Franchising - Phát Hành Dự Kiến 10/04/2018 Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nguyễn Phi Vân

Over the years I've read bits and pieces of this collection of bits and pieces. I was most fascinated with it when I was in my early twenties. My father was a big reader and he would, on occasion, ask me to get THE MENCKEN CHRESTOMATHY out of his study so he could read a passage to me and my brothers. I'm fairly certain Mencken compiled this himself and that it was published shortly before a stroke ended his ability to write. One has to know something about American newspapers and magazines of the early-to-mid-twentieth century to really relate to this stuff. Briefly, Mencken was an American newspaperman of the most hardworking sort. He reported, edited, published, etc. Around 1918 or so he began to write literary criticism and political commentary. He caricatured Woodrow Wilson as the hand-wringing, prudish "Archangel Woodrow." He essentially called Wilson a liar for running on a promise not to involve the United States in the First World War and then going ahead and involving it anyway. Young, educated readers related to Mencken in much the same way college students in 2007 relate to Jon Stewart. Mencken championed writers who had been censored. He skewered pompous politicians, bombastic ministers and grandiose businessmen. At the same time, he put together a serious, if, nevertheless, amusing multivolume work called THE AMERICAN LANGUAGE, which is still in print. So: Mencken was something of a dynamo. But when the stock market crashed and the establishment he ridiculed was collapsing, Mencken fell into disfavor. His conservatism became more and more obvious to a readership seeking the socialism of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Mencken the Darwinist who had made Williams Jennings Bryan a laughing stock in his Scopes Monkey Trial reporting, was, by the time World War Two started, an archconservative who publically reviled Roosevelt and who chose not to write a word about the Nazis. He had personally felt the sting of anti-German bigotry during World War One and he used this grievance as a justification for his silence about Nazism. He signed a petition to help Jewish refugees, but this gesture wasn't much from a man whose words would have reached men in power. So, why should we read anything by him? Because he is a master of comic form. When he attacks a politician, an idea or an institution, he is not actually trying to change the reader's mind. He is simply trying to cause him to collapse in the corner laughing. He builds comic suspense better than anyone except Twain and has a slapstick sensibility which is still unbeaten. Such a devotion to humor is something of a virtue, perhaps Mencken's only one.
