Combo Những Câu Chuyện Giúp Trẻ Khôn Lớn Mỗi Ngày (Bộ 2 Cuốn) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Vũ Anh Quyên

Finished Dirty Little Angels today. Starting to think that I'm just not meant to read fiction, because I wasn't that impressed with this one, either. Written about a girl in New Orleans with a troubled life, Tusa starts out the story with beautiful imagery. The first page of the book made me think of She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb, which was an amazing book. I was disappointed in the end though. The entire story just didn't feel right. People didn't seem to stay true to their motives. For instance, Moses, one of the main characters is an all-around skeezbag who starts a "church" in an abandoned building, and preaches a lot about Jesus and salvation. His motives don't appear to stay consistent throughout the story. For instance, dog fighting, illicit drugs, alcohol, these things don't appear to bother Moses, and he never really offers an explanation to defend them in his version of Christianity. He wouldn't be the first religious hypocrite in the world, hoever, so I'll let that one go. It should be noted that although the back cover claims Moses to be a main part of the story, he really is periperal to everything else going on in the main character, Hailey's life. Although the writing is pretty good, and the story is entertaining, I found the character's motives either completely absent or lacking in depth or completely unbelievable. At one point, its noted that Hailey's mother defied her parents and married Hailey's father, thereby knocking her out of the family inheritance....seriously? Family inheritance? Does it get much more cliche than that? Hailey herself reads as a much more troubled child than a middle-class white girl with unemployed parents should really feel. She seems completely unfazed by her friend's (and her own) underage drinking, drugs, plastic surgery and even beatings. The story is told from Hailey's eyes, and at times it seems as though its being told by a much younger child. I kept forgetting that she wasn't 9 years old, because her voice really seemed that way.
