I cried after I read it.

I have been thinking all week about what I thought of another Neil Gaiman book, "American Gods". I know that this book, like Neil Gaiman, is not for everyone. I probably would not have actually read it if it wasn't this months choice for book discussion. It's a "big" book! Neil Gaiman forces me to think. I don't always want to do that. He packs so much into the story that it is like magic. First you see a good story where the characters are interesting and likeable then you find out you didn't really see what happened or what was really going on and you can just let it go or you can try to figure it out. Like....what's going on? What just happened? Who are these people? When someone asks me what this book is about, it has been hard for me to capture the right words. Neil Gaiman creates the idea and then so eloquenly weaves the tale. He describes it the best in the novel. Loki (aka Low-Key Lyesmith) explains to Shadow: "...You got to understand the god thing. It's not magic. Not exactly. It's about focus. It's about being you, but the you that peoople believe in. It's about being the concentrated magnified essence of you. It's about becoming thunder, or the power of the running horse, or wisdom...." "Would you believe that all the gods that people have ever imagined are still with us today? and that there are new gods out there, gods of computers and telephones and whatever, and that they all seem to think there isn't room for them both in the world and that some kind of war is kind of likely." "Gods are great," said Atsula. "But the heart is greater. For it is from our hearts they come, and to our hears they shall return..." I'm realy glad I read this tale. Neil Gaiman remains an author that entertains the reader and challenges his readership.

I finally picked up this book when it was far past my time to read it. I still haven't finished it, but someday it's time will come.

Next best thing to being there
Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nguyễn Thiên Ngân
Den Anfang fand ich interessant: Die beiden begegnen sich zum ersten Mal auf dem Flur einer alten Irrenanstalt, in die man sie beide entführt hat. Artur hat die Fähigkeit, nach dem Berühren von Dingen oder Menschen deren Vergangenheit zu sehen. Sie kann Leute heilen, in dem sie mit ihrer geistigen Kraft die Selbstheilung anstößt. Der ganze Teil in der Anstalt war gut und so strange, dass ich mich echt ein paarmal gefragt habe, was die gute Frau Liu beim Schreiben von geraucht hat. ;-) Der zweite Teil nach der Flucht war dann aber eher vorhersehbar und durchschnittlich. Insbesondere die Gestalt von Artur hat sich nach der Flucht auf einmal komplett geändert: Auf einmal war er dann der totale Alpha Macho Hero. Trotz allem eine nette Lektüre: 3 Sterne

These bitter glimpses of the Holocaust in Poland ring like small folorn bells tolling us all to hell. I'll give you one example. In "The Key Game" there's a couple and their three year old boy. They finish dinner, it's late, 10 at night, but before the boy goes to bed he has to play the Key Game. They have been playing it every night for two weeks and the boy still hasn't got it right. The problem is not the boy, it's the father who just isn't quick enough. The game starts. The mother calls out "Ding dong!" imitating the doorbell. That's all she has to do. The boy jumps up and runs to the door. "Who's there?" he says. And then, "Just a minute, I have to find the keys." Then he runs back into the main room and runs about making a lot of noise with his feet. He pulls out drawers, slams doors and yells "Just a minute, I can't find them, I don't know where Mummy put them!" Then more stamping about and finally "I found them!" That's it, that's the key game. In a minute or so, the father reappears from the bathroom. He says "I still need more time, he has to look for them longer. I slip in sideways... but it's so tight. And he's got to stamp his feet louder." The mother says to the boy "You're doing a wonderful job. You know that if someone should ring the doorbell one day when Mummy is at work, everything will depend on you? And what do you say when they ask where your parents are? " The boy says, "Mummy is at work. " "And Daddy?" The father yells "And Daddy??" The boy says "Daddy is dead."

Suzanne’s Diary for Nicholas, by James Patterson - audiobook unabridged - I hated it; tape player snapped the first cassette, cost $20 in fines to GRPL; knowing I was facing the fine may have colored my attitude for tapes 2 and 3; still, when "Suzanne" said to her newborn that each time he smiled, it added a year to her life, it felt like I was losing a year of my life - probably a fair rating for me is 1-1/2 to 2 stars; it was mawkish, for sure
