"Josiah Bounderby was not the man to call a Post a Pump, or a Pump a Post, or either of the two a Toothpick." The novel has word-play, a mysterious embery fire, a good father, a bad father, and a complex redemption. Also, a circus. What's not to like?

Vì Sao? Như Thế Nào? - Khủng Long Và Các Loài Động Vật Đã Tuyệt Chủng Khác Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Violent Exposure, by Katherine Howell, b-plus, Narrated by Caroline Lee, Produced by Bolinda Publishing, downloaded from Audible.com. In this book we continue with the paramedics and the police. Two paramedics have a troublesome trainee in tow who has been there for three months but seems not to be picking up anything about the job. A paramedic and the trainee in question arrive at a scene where there is a possibility of domestic violence. But things appear to be fine and no one wants to press charges, so they leave. The next day that same trainee, now with another paramedic, are called back to the same house as the wife, Suzanne Crawford’s body has been found on the floor. The trainee admits that he met her that day and went to bed with her, and he fears that she was killed because of him. They immediately begin looking for the husband who has disappeared. A boy who worked in their nursery has also disappeared. The police have to solve the case before more people are killed. This book got graded down by me because the author made it clear through the decisions made especially by the paramedics, that the ends justify the means, especially if it appears that no one will be hurt. While I admit that it created a great story, because in theory I agreed that the villains got what was coming to them, I think there would have been a greater challenge if Howell had tried to find a way to solve the problems without that easier outcome. Maybe the consequences of this book will follow the characters of this book into the next one. I generally like these books a lot. Caroline Lee is a good reader. My problem with her remains that she reads too slowly, but she reads with very good dramatic inflection.

Bước Vào Thế Giới Của Nhau - Humans Of Hanoi Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Humans Of Hanoi

** spoiler alert ** I really loved this collection of longer short stories. Because they were longer, they weren't just a snapshot of characters and their lives, but more of a collection of snapshots. Very good ones! I loved the development in them, the flaws and reality of each character. I also loved that the author writes like Hemingyway; there is so much beneath the surface that adds to the characters' richness. You can just feel history pervading every story. And not just history history, but the characters' individual histories, everything they might have experienced up until these snapshots are revealed. And this is wonderful, because then they seem more real, like rounded real people. My favorite story was "The Circumcision." I thought it was so powerful, especially for anyone with a German-American history, or maybe even Jewish-American. Andi is a German studying in NYC, and Sarah is a Jewish American living and working there. They meet and fall in love, and explore all the problems that a German-Jewish couple faces. Some of the problems I think are real, and the author does a great job with that: navigating the religious differences, (potential) familial objections, etc. But some of it I think isn't necessary, and focuses on whether or not modern Germans should bear the guilt of their ancestors. In one evry powerful passage, Sarah says something to the effect of, "I try not to hold it against you that you're German." And she says, after he is teasing her a bit, that it's the Nazi in him that teases. To me, these were appalling comments, especially given that they are in a committed, serious relationship. Andi follows up with, "What would you say if I said I didn't hold it against you that you are Jewish." Sarah is angry, and says it isn't the same because she didn't kill a bunch of people. What she misses, though, is that neither did Andi, of course. They get beyond the argument, and Andi even decides, on a trip home to Heidelberg, to have a circumcision, because evidently he sees a future with Sarah and is considering converting. However, when he gets back, not only does Sarah not notice, but she doesn't even understand the significance once he tells her. He spends the night with her, but gets up early in the morning and leaves her. In this instance, I can understand why he did so. It didn't seem like the two of them were going to reach a common ground. I think the author did, though, set out common ground that would allow a couple like that to succeed. And I think he brought up fantastic points about modern Germans and the confusion about carrying the guilt of not even their relatives, but of a collective German identity. I thought it was a brilliant story, and I look forward to reading more by Schlink, including his nonfiction book of essays, Guilt about the Past.

I was hoping to enjoy this book as much as unwind, but it just didn't happen. As a reader, I never felt connected to or invested in the characters.

Good information...just a lot of it. It was hard to follow, with lots of comparisons from Roosevelt to Hoover (2 very different presidents). I thought it would give me some insight into how our government handled the depression but it only made me realize how complex this problem was...and how complex our current problem is.

I don't think I'd ever have read this, but I was in Prague, and needed to get the most book for my buck. And the edition I got was pretty cheap, seems every one has a used copy to sell. I really liked the husband as a character, but Anna herself bored me.
