A hilarious book about a twenty-something who is a klutz. I read this on a plane and laughed enough to make my neighbor comment about how I must be reading a good book.

Phá Muôn Trùng Vây Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Leigh Bardugo

This book follows the apparent recent trend to change what the entire novel is about right at the very end. While it didn't REALLY change entirely everything the transition caused the whole novel to have less of an effect because (I think) it was carried out poorly. Other than that it is very well written and the characters are real/unreal enough. Its worth the read but not life changing.

Người Trong Đau Khổ Vẫn Cười Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Hamlet Trương

If I had a list of the most distressing books I've ever read, most likely this one would be near the top of the list! Like most people who read this short and horrifying book set in Afghanistan during the Taliban regime, I was appalled as I read about the brutality and misery that had become commonplace for everyone - most especially for women. So why read a book like this, ask readers who only read for pleasure and quickly abandon any book that might leave them feeling depressed. My answer is that for me books are a way to educate myself about the way life is being lived in a wide variety of contexts. Unfortunately many of those contexts are pretty depressing. Why read about them? Because I think it's important for the rest of us to realize how priviliged and pampered we have become living here in our safe and secure little corner of the world where we are free to live the way we choose. If nothing else we need to be reminded that for untold numbers of people life is a pretty dismal business. This book definitely gets that point across.

The Book Thief Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Markus Zusak

Amanda Hocking has taken an un tapped world of fantasy and made it into reality with her novel, Switched. Here you've entered a world full of Trylle or as it's coined in the world by most: trolls. From the moment you meet the protagonist named Wendy Everly, you know her life isn't normal. Her mother tried to kill her before the age of 10 and she ends up moving around to almost 10 different schools by the time she is 15. Her brother Matt and aunt Maggie are what keep her grounded because they love her unconditionally, no matter the mood Wendy is in. Although, throughout the book she was truly just a child in the way she acted which is explained as a trait in those of the Trylle; having a short temper. I did find it annoying at times, but luckily some of the other Trylle were worst in character than Wendy, so she was a sign of relief throughout the novel. I do however love how passionate she is about her family and the bond that was created. Along the way you meet Finn, mysterious and also comes off at first as arrogant. But once you get to know him, you realize his secret and his ways for this attitude. Behind those brown earthy-tone eyes, lies a someone who has been through a lot and mastered the importance of a strong-will. I admired him for that but at times I kind of wanted to shake the poor boy because he was so convinced he wouldn't let his emotions get in the way of his job. Something that can be hard no just in a fictional world, but in the real world too. Beyond that, the bond of Wendy and Finn is very much alive in this book. I love how the tension is there, so enriched with fire that keeps on burning through the novel. The love/hate dynamic is engaging for a reader and kept me intrigued. The dialogue interactions between the two was alive and kicking, sometimes kicking: "A foolish man thinks he knows everything. A wise man knows he doesn't," Finn replied absently, still looking down at the book. "That's such a fortune-cookie answer," I said with a laugh, and even he smirked at me. (Hocking, 184) Then the callus interaction of Kim and Elora with Wendy was tricky. I noticed how cold both were. Kim was frigid and dark, while Elora was intimidating and stoic with the power she had. But the way Elora was described physically in the book made me picture the actress from Revenge, Madeleine Stowe who plays Victoria Grayson, the dark haired beauty of a mother was a cold-hearted way of dealing with people. She is powerful and ruthless, just like Elora. (If there was a movie for this book, I hope someone sends her agent a script to play Elora, because she is perfect!) This novel has kept me engaged. It's a rare thing and amazing at the same time when this happens and I highly praise books that can do this easily. The world of the Trylle has been very fascinating. From the way the scenery is described to the characters that live in this community, it's no secret that it's filled with magic and adventure. The real intensity comes in around Chapter 22, when the plot takes on a big twist that later will help lead into an ending that is hard to forget, let alone into the sequel of the trilogy. Hands down this book has been excited, interesting, even fun to read. It took me longer because for two weeks straight I was sick and had a cough that left be unable to read (I once coughed for an hour straight!) Anyway, all in all, I highly recommend this book to anyone that loves stories about mythological creatures in a new twist and light. The way that Amanda Hocking used trolls and took it to a place that hasn't been tapped into yet for young adult literature is fantastic and really well thought out. I'm excited to read the next installment and the final book in the trilogy as well!

I'm happy I read this. I liked some of it very much. To a spelling nerd, it was an interesting, easy read, pulling one along. Then it seemed to get sensationalistic and implausible--and usually I'm happy enough to suspend disbelief. The ending didn't work for me either; it didn't seem very enlightened--though I think it was supposed to.

Thép Đã Tôi Thế Đấy Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nikolai A. Ostrovsky

I found this book insightful and a very worthwhile read. As in the nature of all such works the final conclusion is debatable, but the material is presented in a clear and well-delineated manner, allowing for the possibility of real debate on a subject that has been only lightly touched upon in most other surveys of human history and those stories of the interactions between and clashes of culture. While one may agree or disagree with Diamond's premise, the overall substance of the book cannot be debated and the skill with which his idea is presented makes this a valuable and worthwhile read to anyone interested in the current state of our world, and the history leading up to it.

Sharp, poignant, and lovely. Amy Tan has a good grasp on mothers and daughters, cultural clashes, and the pressures of the family. Great book.
