So weird! There is so much to say about this book, but mostly its just weird. I read a lot but I will admit that this is not my favorite genre. While I enjoyed some parts, other parts just annoyed me included the lack of ending. Resolution + one sentence doesn't do the job for me! I also didn't like the relationships, friendships, family bonds, or any of the relationships. The book was different, I will give you that. The photographs were fun and different too. I was thinking the author was trying to maybe set up a popular series and wanted to have lots of characters to write about? I would recommend it to fantasy lovers, people who don't mind creepy, and since its a fast read, I would say go ahead and check it out for yourself if you are curious. I would not recommend it to the under 12 crowd.

Bí Thuật Đạo Giáo - Án Ma Khí Tự Dụng Pháp Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Mantak Chia

I picked up this book when rummaging through my house in search of a "classic." "An American Tragedy" is a complete time warp. I had to read and reread several chapters before I could fully adapt to the vocabulary, grammar, and most interestingly, the gender roles of the 1920s. The book, as the name suggests, is a downer. Everything goes wrong for Clyde Griffiths, a young man who makes poor decision after poor decision. I think the one amazing part of this book is its psychological impact on the reader. Desperation leads Clyde down the path of a fugative murderer. And by page 700, I, too, felt the murder necessary (though still not justified)....If only to end the novel.

Comments originally posted here. I was very impressed by The Help. I’d passed over it in my reading considerations perviously as it was not a topic or setting with which I had any familiarity or understanding whatsoever, it not being part of my family’s or country’s history. So many thanks to that sadly anonymous blogger whose review convinced me to read the book. I am ever so glad I did. However, I also feel like it isn’t a book I can say much about because I have no authority to do so. I’m a 21st century white woman living on the other side of the world. This is foreign history to me; something I look back at with appropriate outrage that people could treat other people that way (and it is genuine outrage, but for me the reading experience was also rather like watching the inexplicable behaviour of creatures that could have come from another planet – making me love Abiliene’s invention of Martian Luther King for Mae Mobley). I was fascinated by the author’s note at the end as well. She said two particular things there that struck me. Firstly that she didn’t know if she had the authority to write a book in the voice of a black woman, and secondly that Mississippi was rather like her mother – she (Stockett) was allowed to criticise her (Mississippi) as much as she wanted, but should a stranger do it, then that was something else again. I kind of felt that way as a reader. I could read and love the book (and I did), but because of my own history and background, I don’t feel I have the right and qualifications to analyse the book and make judgments on its portrayal of its characters. I don’t know enough to know what kind of portrayal of the situation this is – does it walk a balanced line through its particularly thorny issues, or does it lean towards one side or the other, white or coloured? I don’t know. So I’m not going to even try to comment. I will only say that if this is even close to an accurate portrayal of the times and situation, it is a terrible blot on the country’s history. I don’t deny other countries, my own included, have their own blots and stains, but this one does seem particularly horrific to me. And the bit that shames me most, is that I don’t know if I would have been brave enough to stand up for what is right or not. I hope I would, but the person who is sitting here at her computer in 2011, writing this, doesn’t have generations of history and ingrained racism and whatever else built into the development of the US civil rights moment behind her. Who would I be if I did? I have no idea. After saying I choose not to comment in any detail on the book, I have to mention Hilly. I totally detest Hilly, but as I was writing the previous couple of paragraphs I realised that it isn’t actually her racism that made me dislike her so much. It was her petty self-centredness. I can’t stand people like that, be they white, black or blue with pink polka dots. I find that kind of petty nastiness to be particularly horrible. A generically evil villain usually at least has a reason for what he or she does, someone like Hilly just does it because she can. People like Hilly give me the shivers. As a last quick word (without spoilers), I hope things work out well for Abilene and Minny, for Skeeter off on a new adventure where she can discover who she really is outside her constricted world. And I really, really want Celia and Johnny to have a long, happy life together. Sometimes, as the saying goes, living well is the best revenge. P.S. I've changed my edition of the book (I was reading the Kindle book, but the UK version due to geographical restrictions) to show the cover of the edition I was actually reading. I do think the US cover with the birds on the yellow background is pretty, but I also felt it kind of plastered over the issues the book was dealing with, while the UK cover was much more up front about it. The US one felt a bit like a bait and switch to me - here, buy this book with the pretty cover and you'll have handed over your money before you find it is about such a fraught issue as race relations in Mississippi in the early 60s.

This is, quite simply, the best book on writing I have ever read. It really captures the process of revision which so many books neglect. It's written with the economical, catchy style which has made Stephen King such a success, so it's fun to read as well as a useful source.

Trốn Vào Xứ Sở Diệu Kỳ (Sách tô màu dành cho người lớn) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Good Wives & Warriors

My review of The Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa is based on a paperback copy of the book that I purchased for myself. The following review is my honest opinion of the work. *The following review may contain spoilers! Definitely do not read if you have not read the previous novels!* I don't think I've ever been more eager for a book in my entire life. I was on countdown for it's release date, something I don't even normally bother to look up for most books; I take on an attitude of it will get here when it gets here. Not so with this particular novel. Julie Kagawa has created a world of fey that I am utterly enthralled with and despite being reluctant to leave it just yet, I knew that the conclusion was forthcoming. After all, all good things must come to an end. In the previous three books some of my favorite scenes have been those between Puck and Prince Ash, I loved getting to know the back-story between these two characters. Their friendship, their rivalry, and ultimately their feud. I fell just a little bit more in love with each of them [in different ways, I am most definitely Team Ash though I really want Puck as my best friend] with each exchange. Despite this great love I was a bit nervous as to how a book revolving solely around the two of them would work out, after all previously Meghan had always acted as a buffer. I shouldn't have been worried. Kagawa didn't let me down. These boys held their own. The romance is poignant. Though Meghan is not technically "there" in this book she is at it's heart. The reader is really given an intimate look into Prince Ash's mind to see the depth of his love for her, as well as a reveal as to where Puck truly stands in all of this. I was so glad that Kagawa was able to work these scenes in, to give closure to one of my absolute favorite love triangles. But most importantly, this was the book of Prince Ash. Julie Kagawa even dedicated this book to his loyal team. Despite having fallen for the mysterious Prince of Winter I was thrilled to finally know him. Prince Ash had always had depth as a character but with his fey heritage, especially that of his home court, there was so much that he kept back...even from Meghan or Puck. For fans of Prince Ash this will seal the deal, your hearts will be lost once and for all. For those rooting for Robin Goodfellow, maybe you'll get a glimpse of why we love our icy prince so very much. Just when I think that there can't possibly be anything else that Julie Kagawa could throw at me she does it again. There were all sorts of twists and turns in this novel that I didn't even see coming, and trust me when I say I looked! I'm giving The Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa five a out of five stars review. This was a beautifully written conclusion to an amazing series, one that I can see myself going back to time and time again for a true fairy tale.

Mahapatra at his most mature. Includes great lines like A scream that never ends (‘Scream’) the cries of women made hostages by history (‘Mask of Longing’) Does a raped sixteen-year-old girl build a hymn of the world where living is a flamboyant metaphor? (‘The Portrait’) I am the one who has killed you, with my emptiness with the universe of my words with the thousand shards of conscience and the bloodlessness of my limited existence. (‘I Am the One’) The following lines are from another book: Of that love, of that mile walked together in the rain, only a weariness remains.

This is a great fantasy book for young adults. While the plot is a little simplistic at times, I loved how there is so much cultural literacy and great literature referenced. It reminded me some of Loyd Alexander's books in that there is much more mythology/history involved than just a story about magical worlds.

Interesting look at what appeals to the teen market these days! I was after fluff and that's what I got - albeit attractively packaged.

Other than the fact that I'm obviously not as intelligent as the reader is supposed to be when reading this book because I had absolutely no idea what some of the things were that he was talking about (and he did not clarify), the book was fascinating. I learned so much about Hitler and how exactly his rise to power took place.
