I struggled through the first 100 pages and it did not seem to get any better.
Beatrice does not like going to the library or reading books. Yet, after going to the library with her brother 3 days out the week, she enjoys a story read by the librarian. This story encourage students to want to go to the library and read. (first-third grade)
Excellent memoir and book on writing craft. I've used it with many students and chunks of it with my classes.

My favorite story in this collection is authored by Joan Fox.
Damn, Master A you're good!^^ this story of Cherise Sinclair's was a bit different. it held a captivating emotions and more wonderful yummy writing! it started really hot at first, then it kinda slowed down as revealing the past of Mac and why she was the way she is, then it turned even hotter! i was very over taken by the "i spank you cause i love you" trick. it really was deep cause some people need pain to uncover their feelings and understand them, and Mac needed that, for her it meant someone cared enough to manifest effort on her. it made me think, don't we all want that? someone to care enough for us to actually SHOW IT in the rough way if we need convincing? "i'm doing this cause i care for you," so yeah, lot's of spanking in this book, lol and one more thing, the book cover should have been better!

Picking up only a few months after Married with Zombies left off, In the second book of the Living with Zombies series, Sarah and David have branded themselves as Zombiebusters Extermination, Inc. and are now known far and wide as the go-to zombie killers. Lately, though their clients have insisted that with each kill they remove the zombie’s head and turn them in before receiving payment (yes, a zombie apocalypse is so bad that Sponge Bob Squarepants band-aids are considered payment!). And there’s been from clients and those at a local camp for survivors about souped up zombies, who seem more aware, faster and harder to kill. Then, while at camp, they find a note on a communal bulletin board asking them to meet with someone who signs the letter “A Friend,” at an unknown location as this friend requires their assistance for a unique task. After deciding to meet the mysterious potential client, they find themselves someplace I really want to talk about, but won’t so as not to give away too much of the story. I can say that they find someone who wants them to capture live zombies for seemingly altruistic reasons. While terrifying for Sarah and David, this leads to some pretty comical attempts on their part. In the meantime, they’re also trying to confirm or deny the existence of the bionic zombies, as Sarah calls them, and figure out if the one person who offers them unexpected hope can be trusted. The book was packed with action and more than a few surprises (view spoiler) I’m not going to say what causes it, but for a short while David and Sarah are separated, and I found her complete and utter joy and relief at seeing him again so sweet. She’s tough as nails, and not in the annoying way that so many attempts at writing badass chicks can be, but it’s nice that we occasionally get a glimpse of a more vulnerable Sarah. Not that I want her to be a wimpy marshmallow, but with these scenes, she seems more real. And for my holiday or birthday wish lists, I’m not picky about which one, I’d like a David, please. I really liked him in Married with Zombies, but my approval rating of him went through the roof with this book. He was the perfect amount of everything: amusing, heroic, cynical, protective, loyal, suspicious…I could go on but I think you get the picture. It’s while trying to capture their first zombie that they run into a young boy named Robbie. What can I say about Robbie? They end up saving him from attacking zombies and he ultimately ends up tagging along for the ride. I kinda felt like Sarah in that while I felt like he should have annoyed the crap out of me, I grudgingly liked him and didn’t want him to get hurt. I loved that Petersen didn’t shove kid gloves on Sarah when she dealt with Robbie, her reactions to his snotty little comments, looks and his attack of her are hilarious! While I try to keep my reviews fairly clean, but in real life I pretty much cuss like a sailor, much to my mother’s dismay, so the lack of any sort of filter on David’s, and especially Sarah’s, words or thoughts (when she inner monologued to herself that she probably owed David a blow job, I was practically snorting) fills me with slightly guilty, giddy delight. While I would love for there to be an end to the zombie madness so that Sarah and David can have a happily ever after, as well as electricity, I want this series to keep going on for a long time because it’s definitely one of my favorites!
Autobiographical? Weird love-affair with Japan. Squid that are not quite dead when you eat them (cling to your tongue). Fiance's friends come to dinner and do not initiate conversation (and fiance stays in the kitchen). But then the trips up the mountains - amazing! Account of climbing - and then scooting down - Mt Fuji; and getting lost atop another mountain and near-death encounter - riveting.

Saw the movie in 2003 in London, it made me miss Bowdoin as it reminded me of it... Rules of Attraction is far crazier a scene of course. But maybe Bennington in the 1980s lived up to it. I live about 45 minutes from there now, in Saratoga Springs, took a drive there about a month before I read this, resisted buying the book then, but I'd read Donna Tartt's The Secret History, classmate of Ellis's, "that weird Classics group (and they're probably roaming the countryside sacrificing farmers and performing pagan rituals)?" (pg 160 - did Ellis throw that in as Tartt was writing her debut, he already having published Less Than Zero while a student, they were students, as a plug, teaser, did that line inspire her -- were there actually Classics kids who were into the Dionysian rituals in Vermont???), and was keen to read this one, and just generally interested so I checked out the Bennington College campus. "Camden College" is in New Hampshire but you've got North Camden like North Bennington and the college is basically identifiable as Bennington. Price Chopper supermarket gets a shout out too. Anyway...About 500 students I think, there is a long driveway and security at the end of it but no one on, I just drove a short loop and left, weird college architecture like every liberal arts school at least but it's practically all wood, sort of unique and Vermonty. Wonder if they party like that still. Hell of a lot of drugs and rampant gender-blind sex in the novel (more so than the movie, the college of the movie is less "bohemian" than that of the book). Fucking funny book. Interesting to compare perhaps with the kids aren't alright of Tom Wolfe in I Am Charlotte Simmons where its a 70 year old classic Southern gentleman who always wears a white suit freaked out by the youth's moral decay (and he hung out with Kesey and the 60s hippies) vs Ellis at age 24 or so writing this about his peers. I'm definitely interested in reading more of Bret Easton Ellis.
I love JSF for giving me this book, if for no other reason than "I have heavy boots" is the best way to say "I am so incredibly down right now I can feel it in every part of myself and even walking is a chore." A 9/11 NYC story that's free of guile and pointless chest-beating, thanks to his thoughtful choice of a misfit child protagonist. I've always been a sucker for the child-level view of New York City, and intrepid Oskar hits the streets in a big way. Will make you tear up over answering machines, keys without locks and any doorman, anywhere.
