I was a little apprehensive about picking this up. I've known the author since high school and hadn't read anything she'd written since then. What if I hated it? I've hated friends' books before. And it's full of fairies and magic children and angels. Oh s***. I'm going to hate this and have to pretend I don't. What I had forgotten to keep in mind is that Chrysoula's smart and talented and just as bored by the cliches of contemporary fantasy as I am. And it took about 10 pages to get from concerned to "hey, this is pretty good", followed shortly by "wait, I genuinely like this". And I stayed there all the way to the end. The kids feel like kids, not like miniature plot devices. The protagonist isn't "a conflicted magic wielding female who kills big bad" as another friend of mine disparaged other fantasy novel protagonists. It's a great first novel. If there's a sequel, I'll read it.

When I first read the summary of it I thought it was wonderful but when I started to read it I was wrong...nothing spectacular about this book...It's very simple and I really don't believe in luck.

The Biology of Desire: Why Addiction Is Not a Disease Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Marc Lewis

Really quite a clever book that manages to be funny, serious, informative and interesting all at the same time. You can't help but fall in love with all the main characters for their quirkiness and resiliance to life and hardship. The Occupation of Guernsey is not something I've ever thought about, even though I knew somewhere in the recesses of my mind that it was 'Occupied' and it is something I would like to know more about. Even though I know this is fiction, whilst reading the stories from the different characters I could imagine them being truth based which made the story that much more poignant, sincere and thought provoking. I think the writing through letters lends an appeal that would have been missing in any other medium of telling, it gave us more insight into the characters. All in all a very moving and thoughtful story that I really, really enjoyed.

Very depressing, but I love this book. I can't help but be very connected with the main character through the whole story, but maybe it's because I'm a horse lover.

Originally Reviewed on The Book Smugglers: http://thebooksmugglers.com/2011/08/b... Greave Hall is an imposing and wealthy estate, but as of late its master, Lord Greave, has become increasingly unstable. For a young scullery maid like Abigale Tamper, life at Greave Hall has become almost unbearable. After her mother passed away from cholera nearly a year earlier, Abi has become an orphan with few friends and even fewer options. With his son Samuel is fighting in the Crimea and his wife long dead some twenty years earlier, Lord Greave retreats further from others each day, falling victim to depression and mental infirmary. And, while the master of the home is disengaged from life, his dead wife’s half-sister and estate housekeeper, Mrs. Cotten, takes increasing liberties with her role in the manor by wearing her sister’s fine clothes, throwing dinners with her friends, and in her cruelty towards the hall’s staff – especially Abi. When a few of the staff below stairs pretend to be ghostly apparitions to scare Mrs. Cotten, Abi is terrified when an actual ghost seems to be haunting the hall – noneother than Abi’s recently deceased mother. Abi’s mother’s spirit is not at rest, and she has something of dire importance to communicate to her orphaned daughter. Greave Hall holds many secrets, and Abi must unravel the mystery of her mother’s death and Lord Greave’s descent into madness, before it is too late. Featuring a haunted manor and its mad master, a cruel housekeeper and an intrepid young heroine, The Poisoned House is an engaging Victorian mystery with a ghostly twist. As with the best period novels in haunted estates, atmosphere is integral to The Poisoned House and Mr. Ford imbues Greave Hall with the perfect air of creeping dread with forbidding spirits, ghostly handprints, creaking floorboards and the like. The mystery surrounding the Hall takes off when Abi learns that her mother may have been poisoned and not killed by cholera as she’d always believed – but who would want to kill her mother, the kind, gentle nursemaid? There’s also the ongoing tension and mystery as to why Mrs. Cotten, the estate housekeeper with a cruel streak, is so set on making Abi’s life miserable, with both emotional and physical abuse. While the villain in this piece might seem straightforward, there are a few layers to this mystery, which I greatly appreciated. Mr. Ford unravels the story of Greave Hall and the lives caught up in the tangle tantalizingly over the book, leading to an immensely satisfying conclusion – with more than a few twists along the way. On the character front, Abi is our first person narrator set on communicating with her mother’s spirit and finding her murderer. Enterprising, brave, and determined, Abi is a fine heroine (if, at times, a bit dense), and it’s easy to slip into her narrative and sympathize with her plight as a scullery maid and an orphan with no options. There’s a bit of A Little Princess‘s Sarah Crewe to Abi and The Poisoned House, and shades of other gothic heroines like Jane Eyre and Emily St. Aubert. While Abi can confide in friend Lizzie, a fellow maid in Greave Hall (whom I also loved as a character), the other staff are, refreshingly, not all sunshine and happiness and coddling towards young Abi. The Hall’s Cook is a hard woman that likes her gin, and, like Master Greave’s butler, these characters are not bad people, but will do what they must to protect their positions of employment – even if that means keeping terrible secrets. As for those characters above stairs, Lord Greave is a tragic figure with whom readers can both sympathize, but also feel enraged towards (especially as the truth unfolds). There’s also his son, Samuel, who returns injured from the Crimean War. Like a brother to Abi, especially as her mother was also his nurse, Sam’s return marks a change in atmosphere at Greave Hall. Finally, there’s the villainous Mrs. Cotten, with her usurped finery and her untoward treatment of Abi. My only complaint with her character is that while we do eventually (somewhat) understand her motivations, I only wish we could have learned more about her character and why she has become so bitter and cruel. With a few surprising twists, an impressive and fitting gothic atmosphere, and a sympathetic heroine, The Poisoned House is an engrossing, ghostly novel. Although the ending is a bit too pat for my tastes, I enjoyed this book and recommend the book to anyone looking for a good period mystery.

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Hidenori Kusaka

In Bech is Back, Updike offers us entertaining glimpses into the fictitious life of a famously unprolific author who decides to settle down in his later years. He does so, but only long enough to write his best seller. A front seat view into the dichotomy between reality and the writer's inner life.

I watched the movies first and then found out about the books and had to read them. I enjoyed reading this book and as soon as I finished had to go onto the next one. The girls in this book have troubles and they help each other through tough times.
