I won this book here on Goodreads and I enjoyed it very much! It was fantastic! It's a wonderful story about a baby who was adopted by a family who couldn't have a baby. And this baby is not an ordinary baby. She is ''Gifted''. She brings peace and calm to people and everybody around her. It's a very heart touching story about family, love and true friendship. The book presents Anna as she grows up and the positive influences she has on others. A true friendship developes between her and Kelsey. She loves Kelsey like her sister and she tells her mother very often that she would be the happiest person if her parents could adopt Kelsey too. But they can't because Kelsey has a family, her dad and her dad's girlfriend. They live in very poor conditions. Anna cares about Kelsey very much. She concerns about the fate of Kelsey: ''How do I help help her have a happy life? Her life is so sad.'' She is very intelligent and she realizes that she is ''gifted''. She is always wondering how she could use her special skills to help somebody, so she's very warm-hearted. Her feelings for her parents are very deep: '' I love Dad and Mom enough that I would definitely lay down my life for them.'' The narrative mode is in first-person view ( Anna's mother is telling the story) but sometimes appeares the first-person view too when Anna tells a little about herself in her diary. The end of the novel was very heart-tearing and I burst into tears. It's a wonderful book which touched me emotionally. Karey White it's a great author who presented real human values in her book. 5 stars for her!!!!

The first thing I have to say about this book is that Sam is one of the most empathetic characters I have ever come across. You really feel his desperate desire to remain in human form; his love for Grace and the effects his traumatic childhood had on him. This is not a fast paced, action packed book. It is so much more. It's so sad and introspective and creative. I love the way Maggie Stiefvater writes; it's almost poetry. Sam and Grace and Grace's friends are so real and likeable-Grace is a down to earth and normal student aside from one thing-she's in love with a wolf. I absolutely adored the twist on werewolf lore in this book-and I loved how it is explained. There are so many twists and turns and heartbreaks that you forget there's no big fight scene or build up of tension. It's so perfectly sweet and lovely and heartbreaking that you can't help but love it. If you're craving a book to really tug at your heartstrings this is the book for you. If you're dying for a sensitive; thoughtful and melancholy love interest-Sam is the boy for you. I urge everyone to pick up a copy of this book straight away.

I keep thinking that I will finish this book--but I don't really want to. I just want to hang on to the last 70 or so odd pages forever.
Published in 1977, the year of The Sex Pistols’ “Anarchy In The UK”, the first Clash album and a million other squalls, “Fatale” is a noir novel about a hit woman hiding out in a dull suburban village. What makes “Fatale” stand out from the hit woman pack is the way it skewers the social mores of the bourgeoisie along with a strong presence of Bunuelian surrealism, par example: “She went on eating and drinking and progressively lost control of herself. She leaned over, still chewing, and opened the briefcase and pulled out fistfuls of banknotes and rubbed them against her sweat-streaked belly and against her breasts and her armpits and between her legs and behind her knees. Tears rolled down her cheeks even as she shook with silent laughter and kept masticating”.
I read this because Hideous Kinky is a favourite of mine, and I was expecting it to be better as Hideous Kinky was Esther Freud's first novel. It was sorely disappointing. I couldn't sympathise with the main character (Tess) at all. It's all in third person, but sometimes it's told from her point of view, sometimes from William's (her stepfather) point of view. Tess looks up to William in a sickening way, whereas William dislikes her "awkward, grubby body pressing in too close" - the whole tone made me feel uncomfortable. The plot didn't go anywhere, and I put this down feeling like I'd wasted my time.

I liked it! The characters were wonderful, the story was wonderful, and when I wasn't overanalyzing it in English class, I really enjoyed it.
yes, there are evil people in this world. what do we do about it? let them ruin our lives or look at the ruin that they cause and use it to our advantage? it's a choice that can be made and a choice that is grappled with as the powerful zenia methodically manipulates the lives of three women by stealing their men. what good could possibly come out of this? well the three women find each other and they each have very unique tools for coping with the poison they encounter. i would definitely recommend this book! margaret atwood really delves into the unique characters of the three different women looking back at their lives from childhood through the time they encounter zenia and after.

Great book, much more detailed than the movie (of course). The author paints a most unique picture of the intricate relationships between Red Pollard, Seabiscuit, Tom Smith, and Charles Howard.
