Năm 1922, Năm Ác Báo Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Stephen King

I enjoyed this book, and I hardly ever read fiction. Darren actually read it before me and then recommended I read it. The story is about Henry Litecap who is an outdoor- and solitude-oriented park ranger, who falls in love, there's tragedy, a journey, etc. etc.

Absolutely essential reading for anyone who hasn't yet read it. It is a genuinely radicalizing text, serving to undermine myths and put radicals today within a solid historical context, and showing that struggle has a rich history in the US. This book was one half of my radicalizing process. As a new anarchist, starved for perspectives that mirrored my own and ignorant of the depth of anarchist and radical thought, I was groping around in the dark. I can remember, first bitten by the anarchist bug, "googling" "anarchist" every day. I read Crimethinc books because someone told me that anarchists read those books. Entirely ignorant, I was left thinking that my generation was the first to stumble upon anarchism, and that we'd have to create the entire world anew, with nothing in history but misery to look back on. This book changed that in me. I could draw on hundreds of years of struggle against empire, capitalism, and the state. That the soil was rich with the blood of people who struggled for the same thing that I wanted to struggle for. I found out by asking that my family has its own radical history, both of my parents were in SDS, my father went on a Freedom Ride, my grandfather was involved in the 1199 Hospital Workers' strike of 1968, my great grandmother worked in the triangle shirtwaist factory, etc. etc. I know so many folks who were radicalized because they read this book in high school. I only wish I was one of them, that I could have tapped into the bountiful resource of history as a starting point for my radicalism, instead of having it retarded by ignorance of history.

Gà Gô Ở Thung Lũng Don Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Ernest Thompson Seton

I knew before I started this book that "Magician" was split into two and this was only the first half of one book, otherwise I would have been disappointed in the ending that leaves many big questions unanswered. "Magician: Apprentice" takes place in the well defined fantasy world of Midkemia, with a multitude of races, kingdoms, and political intrigue. When this Tolkienesque world is invaded by armies from another via a magic rift in space-time, a war begins and the main characters are separated. Following the separate journey's of several characters this book is an epic, well paced fantasy novel that kept me wanting to find out what happens next.

Kho Tàng Truyện Cổ Dân Gian Thế Giới - Những Người Tí Hon Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

I stumbled upon this novel in advisory and was slightly discouraged when I saw how long it was. But after reading the blurb and a look at the cover, I thought it would be an easy read. As I flipped through the novel, I saw that it was written in journal entries which I thought was very interesting. And from the cover, I got the vibe it was a comedic story, which I don’t usually read. I thought I could give it a try and I really liked it. This novel tells the story of a young boy by the name of John Milton who describes his first year at a boarding school in South Africa, during the apartheid. van de Ruit combines a story of a typical school, a young boy who hasn’t gone through puberty (therefore given the nickname Spud) and social issues in Africa to share a universal story of struggle. His decision to tell the story through journal entries allows for the reader to create a close-knit relationship with John Milton while still understanding everything else that is going on. In reading the story I realized that John’s struggles to fit in and the struggles individuals faced during the apartheid all relate to a bigger picture which is that of struggle. Everyone undergoes some kind of struggle in their life ranging in severity. That was something I could relate to as well as John’s character. John is a witty, outgoing kid who is trying to become cooler by being on good terms with The Crazy Eights (boys in his dorm). I feel as though there have been times where I’ve tried to fit in (middle school) but as I mature, I have learned how to accept my individuality. Although it was a long read, I don’t regret it one bit. This is a truly intriguing novel and anyone who likes an interesting story which intertwines information about the apartheid in Africa, would enjoy it.

Kể Chuyện Danh Nhân Lịch Sử: Nguyễn Trãi - Vì Nước Quên Thù Nhà Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Tiểu Giàu

I read about 20-25 of these books. I read them in fifth and sixth grade. I strongly remember wanting to read these because they seemed cool and my older sister read a few of them. I remember that our library had a little display of them and I also bought a lot of them through the book catalogs we got at school. I remember most strongly the set up of the books; each book started explaining the club and describing each of the members. I also strongly remember the covers.

Những Thói Quen Tốt Cho Sức Khỏe - Chiếc Rương Kỳ Diệu Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Aleix Cabrera

It is not often that an author can take the time to research and then write a compelling biography of a forgotten American hero. The pace of the book is deliberate at times, always interesting and, in the end, it gave me a perspective of the emancipation process that I had not fully understood. Sure there are dramatic events in the ex-slave's life which thrilled (his runaway danger; running an underground railway; 100 years before Rosa Parks he was arrested in NYC on a tram, same reason!) but what sticks if that his ethic, his form of intellectual opposition was the example Martin Luther King Jr. would adopt and follow a century later. I strongly recommend this book.
