Quite bizarre but really intriguing. Would probably give it 3.5 stars if I could.

If you read his other books, you can pass on this. It's totally predictable.

My review has little to do with the writing style and more about the overall feeling I had while reading the story. Imagine a line graph, intitially is it slowly on the rise, proving to be a promising read, then suddenly flat-lining for a long period before arriving at the end and taking a tremendous dive and flat lining again followed by pathetic little peaks attempting to regain some positive sentiments.

Funny, informative. Just an Iota hard to follow every argument thrown in by the author so that we get rewarded at the end of each chapter by some clarifications. Please read my blog for more detailed information: summary, interesting highlights and my personal insights. my link text

children's nonfiction; biography. Seems to be well-researched (lots of primary sources, as noted in the annotated bibliography--there are also suggested websites and source notes by chapter) and offers a fairly complete view of Amelia's life, certain aspects of which are dealt with delicately: On her father's alcoholism: p.20 Earhart's drunkard dad is described as "that angry, thick-tonged stranger who cursed and yelled." A's sister Muriel believed that he "'would have struck'" Amelia for pouring out his whiskey "'if Mother had not... seized his arm from behind.'" It also says that the girls "spent most evenings locked away in their bedrooms." On her romance with George: p.53 "Amelia obviously had romantic feelings for George [Putnam], too. But she resisted his charms at first, because George was married." p. 70 "She also spent lots of time with [still married] George.... People who saw them had no doubt about their relationship. 'Their love affair was in full swing,' said one friend. 'There was an electricity between them that you couldn't miss, and the subtle pats and touching were unmistakeable.' [George's wife] Dorothy Putnam realized what was happening, too." When Dorothy divorces him, George pleads with Amelia to marry him, and eventually she relents. Her childhood is relatively dull (I remember very little of it), but interspersed between biographical chapters are various accounts of the events surrounding her mysterious disappearance. The description of her voyage (each leg of the journey leading up to her disappearance) is also pretty dull--an annotated map might have served better. Inset textboxes are interesting (particularly for fans of aviation science) but can disrupt the flow of the main text. Inset text and pictures are on the tiny side (small!). No glossary is offered, but technical terms are explained as they're introduced. Younter kids who read this will still need to have a dictionary/encyclopedia/google handy (that's a good thing) to tackle words like uncanny, typhoid, countenance, dauntless, laurels, unseemly, lucrative, etc.

I'll read anything David Liss puts out. Good page-turners and his sleuths come from a section of society that I hadn't thought about before -- Jews in the transition between Renaissance and Enlightenment. I recommend reading George Eliot's Daniel Deronda as a [more serious:] companion. Daniel Deronda lived later than Liss' characters, but Eliot's first-hand account of Jews in her day shows the persistence of our attitudes.

A "could-be-reality" story about how our legal system struggles to adapt to rapidly-developing genetic sciences. (If companies can patent your genes, who owns your cells?) Crichton's staccato style pulls you in, but occasionally he drifts away from the narrative to have a character lecture someone as if in a NYT op-ed. It breaks the rhythm of an otherwise enjoyable story.
As Arabic is my mother tongue, I have wanted a book that would keep my Semitic background in mind and take me slowly yet confidently through this journey of language learning. Well, Thackston's was the book for it! He knows what he is doing. Obviously, he is pedagogically well-blessed. You can have a ton of information but how do you communicate all that to a beginner who knows "nothing"? Well, Thackston is the man for you! Other books are either too self-praising and yet saying nothing or too much information for a beginner, etc. This book I close it to miss it again and wanting to go again for some more fun, I mean more Syriac, the language of our Lord.
I love Alexander McCall Smith, adn the No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency is my favorite of his series books. This may be my favorite No. 1 Ladies Detecxtive Agency book. I love Mma Ramotswe -- her wisdom, her kindness, her way of phrasing her thoughts. I was sorry when this book ended.
