Lần Đầu Làm Sếp (Tái Bản 2016) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Loren B. Belker

I haven't read much of Stephanie Barron's work, but can say that of the few Jane Austen mysteries I've read, I've enjoyed her mixture of mystery, suspense and historical detail. A Flaw In The Blood has all three of the above ingredients without Jane Austen being the sleuth. I always feel like such a snob when a book I enjoyed reading, and finished quickly, gets a poor review. It's as if I'm denying my own entertaining experience. While this was a definite page turner, mostly due to the romantic tension between Georgiana Armistead, a controversial female physician, and Patrick Fitzgerald, an Irish attorney who is being hunted by Queen Victoria's henchman, Wolfgang von Stuhlen, for reasons unknown. Georgie, as she is called by Patrick, is past the age of needing a guardian, but Fitzgerald considers her safety his responsibility. When Queen Victoria's husband, Prince Albert, dies, a trail of destruction and murder that points to von Stuhlen indicates that both Georgiana and Patrick have become his targets. They flee to Europe and there, begin to unravel the reason why von Stuhlen and Queen Victoria might want them both eliminated. The chase and suspense might make the book exciting to read, but, unfortunately, the plot and motive explaining it all is quite disappointing - silly even. von Stuhlen is practically a caricature of the classic bad guy (he even has an eye patch!)and Victoria is portrayed as a narcissistic queen prone to hysterics, which may or may not be true. Barron's attempt at including actual history, and unfortunately a documented genetic mystery, doesn't work. She tried to do too much with what should have been a light-weight Victorian mystery - a formula she has already proven can be successful. While I can't fault her for attempting to break away from a series, I hope she returns to the Jane Austen mysteries she writes so well.

Having read this immediately after his first memoir Lucky Man, much of it felt repetitive. If you only read one, read Lucky Man.

One of the few times in my life I said, "This woman actually takes my emotions and is able to give them words." Sadly, the book is about high school, but I suppose I spend most of my time in one anyway.

International Business Basics: Learn What You Need in 2 Hours Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Michael F. O'Keefe

there is nothing like david tod roy's translation of this in chinese literature, at least i've never found anything that even comes close. so much chinese translation comes off as fruity in the silliest way to me--i know, not exactly an academic impression--even in established greats like the recent dream of the red chamber translation. but this is amazing. i want to send roy chocolates or flowers in gratitude, and as a bribe to get him to bring out the last 2 volumes already (still haven't bought the 3rd as it hasn't come out in paperback yet...)! other than rabelais, this is my favorite classic of all time. it transcends all.

I had given this four stars, but had to downgrade it a bit after the news that Mortenson admitted to "omissions and compressions" in the story that he was not forthcoming about until pressed. Sigh.

If you haven't read this... do it. But steal it or borrow it; don't buy it because Orson Scott Card is a consummate ass and I'd hate to see people supporting him financially.
