Its so easy to say "just eat better" but the reality is much more difficult for low income people. Good food for thought book!

This one got one less star because of the relationship between the two main characters which was a bit irritating, their belief that the other was too good for the other. But, a lot of action and interesting machinations.

I like Commissario Montalbano. He's a complex, human character and there is humour as well as tragedy in his life. In a society dominated the the Mafia, he maintains his integrity, but doesn't always get the criminals put away. The translation here is a bit clunky and is obviously aimed at the American market. Translating slang is really difficult to get right and sometimes the translator hasn't quite got it right, but the story is nonetheless an entertaining one.

i loved this book. i picked it up cuz i saw the book everywhere and i liked what the author had previous written. but it was a good read. i still want to read it again after all this time.
This is kind of a guilty pleasure read for me. The first couple of books were enjoyable. The problem for me with the series is that Richard's Objectivist sermons get a bit grating, and it seems like the plot is being endlessly recycled. That said, it is a fun tale of human self-desception.

I enjoyed this, but it did drag on a lot, without really going anywhere.

I thought the characters were really interesting and the book gave a very vivid historical perspective of the status of African Americans during the 40's. It was a quick enjoyable read.

In Cynthia Ozick’s The Puttermesser Papers, the remarkable Miss Puttermesser is introduced in an ironic tone that announces the mayhem to come. In reading this book, one discards the realist mode of interpretation for the surreal. Puttermesser is an erudite figure who is extraordinarily learned in almost everything from philosophy, history, to the arts. But intelligent as she is, Puttermesser languishes in the lower rungs of the city bureaucracy until she creates a female golem that helps her become mayor of New York City. From her rise to the limelight, the reform and beautification of the city, up to her fall from power, a futile love affair ala George Eliot, and her adoption of a cousin from the Soviet Union, The Puttermesser Papers become more Bizarre with each turn of the page. It all reads like an absurd dream, a senseless carnival. But just as one gets used to this logic of the episodic rise and fall, the last chapter arrives. The ironic tone is then replaced with a melancholy one. We are told that she was in fact in paradise already, a state of mind where she can conjure the “lost, the missing, the wished-for. The unfinished and the unachieved. Not the record of her life as she had lived it, but as she had failed to live it.” From The Secret Meaning of Paradise is That it Too is Hell

This book was pretty mediocre. The editing was awful.The writing was repetitive & the story was anti-climactic . On the up side - it was an easy / quick read.

I really enjoyed this book! I liked how it was totally different from the usual vampire/werewolf/fairy theme. Plus, I love Greek mythology! Was the book accurate in the Greek Gods? Not exactly but I didn't mind because it worked for the book. I really liked Kate. Her mom is dying, her friend is dead and she goes to Henry to take him up on his deal and seal her fate for six months out of the year for the rest of eternity (if she passes the tests). She never turned into one of those pathetic, "feel sorry for me" characters, thank goodness! While she was devastated that her mother was dying, she stayed strong and able to carry on. Henry is a great character as well! I loved how you never really knew what his feelings were for Kate. He's dark and mysterious but protective as well. I like how he cared about what Kate wanted and gave her a true choice instead of making her feel bad about staying or leaving. Ava was a fun character. I hated her at first and then really enjoyed her character. She was fun and flirty and yes, a little self-involved but she brought some fun and lightness to the story. I liked how all the characters came together at the end. It tied in the whole story and showed how important each character was in Kate's life. I loved the mystery in this story. Not only did you have the great story of the Greek Gods but you have a suspenseful murder mystery as well. The whole time you are wondering if Kate is going to be able to make it through to Spring. Plus, you have a great romance that isn't too mushy. The romance between Kate and Henry moves at just the right speed to be believable. I enjoyed this book a lot even though it wasn't completely accurate when it came to the Greek mythology but like I said, it worked for the book and I had fun reading it.
