Wow, I really liked this one. Really liked it. Not in, perhaps, a love-it-forever-sing-it’s-praises-read-it-over-and-over-again way. But just in a, “This is just such a wonderful, touching, lovely book” way. Part of it was the surprise. I thought it would be a middle grade book, and I haven't had good luck with fantasy middle grade books recently. But this wasn't really middle grade (or at least its upper middle grade) despite the fact that the leads are 12 (though a very mature and pretty badass 12). I think what I loved most of all were the characters. Trei is a great hero—-brave, decent, understanding, bright, and dealing with the overwhelming grief of losing his entire family, his city, and, ultimately, his country when his relatives there don’t want him. He finds himself dealing with divided loyalties, too, when his birth country goes to war with his adopted country. And I really love that Trei looks at the world through Tolounnese eyes. He knows that Toloun has the best soldiers. Hands down. And he has that honor and bravery ingrained in him in ways that an Islander might never fully understand (well, maybe Prince Ceirfei). I loved Araene, too. Classic girl-has-to-dress-as-boy, but it was so well-done it felt fresh. And she was properly courageous, and vulernable and smart and resourceful. Just a great, great heroine. I think the world-building was also great. I love that the countries (Tolounn and the Floating Islands) have very distinct personalities. And I love that this is managed with pretty light strokes and also without relying too heavily on making them earth-equivalents. Tolounn has echoes of Rome—military nation, conquering, loyal soldiers with the power to overturn rulers. But it is not Rome-in-disguise. It is it’s own place. I liked the politics that were inserted and how everyone was just so badass. The Little Emperor—I wouldn’t want to cross him. He seems very bright, very in control, very assured, very honorable. A dangerous man. In fact, all the competent adults were very worrying in their absolute competence. I wouldn’t want to cross any of them. There were bits when it slowed and my attention wavered…I don’t care about flying training at all. But there was only ever half a chapter where my interest dragged. Otherwise, it was pretty intense. I hope there’s a sequel. It doesn’t need one, per se. But there are threads that could be pulled tighter and storylines I want to see progress further. I checked Neumeier' website and there's no hint of a whisper of a sequel so far. She’s talking about a bunch of other books she’s planning to write and none of them are sequels. I will say that I guess my one complaint for this book was the names. They were all familiar but strange enough that I couldn’t keep them straight. It didn’t help that Neumeier actually had kind of a naming scheme going on where a lot of the boys had names ending in “ei” (and, in fact, I think all male Island names end in “i” but I can’t be sure without going back and checking). Very logical for an actual culture, very confusing for a reader. And all the adult mages kept getting confused in my brain, too. But the names were at least short and not ridiculous as tends to happen in fantasy.

The blurb says: "Set at the turn of the twenty-first century in China along the Tumen river, which separates Northeast China and North Korea, The Ginseng Hunter is an unforgettable portrait of life along a fragile border." It is about a guy who lives a very solitary life on a farm along the Chinese side of this border, he hunts for ginseng for a living, occasionally going to town to sell it and to visit a brothel. He becomes involved with a North Korean prostitute as things heat up between North Korea and China, he is drawn from his solitary life and "unnervingly discovers that the fate of the woman and four others rest in his hands." I found the main character to be believable, and the portrayal of his spare existence interesting. Lots of atrocities described by North Koreans on their own people, by the Chinese on the North Koreans and vice versa. At times very touching and sad.

I was all into this book on my e-reader on our way to Epcot, and then my e-reader died. I was a little ticked off (understatement) that I couldn't finish the final 30 pages. Oh well. I feel like I read enough to be able to write a short review. Since I can't comment on the complete plot, I can just give my opinions about a few things. First of all, this is not what I would consider YA. It is more of a middle grades read. With that being said, I must say that I thought it was charming. It's a clean story with an arrogant dragon (which I thought was funny). Any character that shows a huge amount of pride and gets humbled by a young child wins brownie points with me. The plot is quick and a little predictable at times. I don't think it's a flaw; after all, I'm an adult reading this book that is best suited for the 11-13 year old group. I would hope I could stay one step ahead of the plot. Like I said, this review is short and sweet. I couldn't finish the book because my ereader content was wiped out. (Did I mention my computer crashed AGAIN and I can't even back up the files?) I liked the book. It was simple and clean. I think young girls (tween age) that enjoy fairytale type books would enjoy this book.

It was a bit shorter than I would have liked, but I would rather wish for more than less. It does what it says, simplifies the steps for your to focus on what is most important for you, as an individual with a unique voice, to create and produce on a blog. She includes some reasons why warming up to write can suck so much time away from the actual writing and how to pull focus back to those goals she suggests be created at the beginning of the book. Her list of resources is very good. Those resources also lead to more and more from there. It's difficult not to get drawn away into more prep work... If looking for focus and simplify, this book is a simple way to achieve that.

Like most of Neil Gaiman's books, the ideas behind these stories are really really awesome and mind-blowing and then the execution is sometimes excellent and sometimes lacking. Overall I enjoyed these.

This book provided a good overview of the self-publishing process. Michael provided some helpful tips pertaining to tools to use and he laid out the steps to get from start to finish. And, Michael's advice and overview of how best to optimize your income from self-publishing is fantastic. Unfortunately, I found the depth of the book to be disappointing and I felt that Michael too easily dismissed explaining the more intricate details of publishing (for example: how to test & edit your ebook prior to publication). In several cases, instead of providing more detail on a topic, he simply said that (I'm paraphrasing): "This was my experience, but I recommend you research further." This is a great book if you are looking for a high level overview of how to publish your book or if you want some advice on how to make money. But, I suspect there are better books out there though if you are looking for a thorough overview of the nuts and bolts of the self-publishing process.
