Trịnh Đình Khôi - Truyện Ngắn Chọn Lọc Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Trịnh Đình Khôi

While this novel was an eye-opening look at another culture, I didn't feel connected to the main character enough. Consequently, it seemed more like watching a news broadcast of the atrocities in Nigeria rather than establishing an empathetic character who would personalize this world for the reader.

*I moved my introduction to the end of the review, since it was a bit long and boring... First of all, the illustrations. Obviously. They were simply haunting, beautiful, disturbing and altogether fantastic. Like the porcelain dolls at that bed 'n breakfast. You know the one, you're worried they'll come alive, but somehow you're hoping for it as well because they're sad and lonely and beautiful. ...I'm not talking about the creepy porcelain dolls. ... the ones that you're afraid will come to life and murder you in your sleep. The story was alright, obviously there's not a lot of time for character development in children's stories, but I thought the author did just fine. There's a girl who lives in a castle inside a museum. Children come to the museum hoping to catch a glimpse of her. She's inside her magical castle dreaming of the children on the outside. I don't know the background of the story, but I like to believe there's a castle in a museum somewhere, and the curator made up this story about a girl living inside. She tells the story to the young kids who come to the museum, and they're always trying to see the girl as she peeks her head out the window. The curator smiles to herself as some kids leave believing they caught a glimpse of the girl. It's a flea circus, and even though there are no fleas, some kids are certain they saw one jump. The story takes it a step farther though, the curator was wrong. The girl does exist. And while the curator (and children who believe) on the outside dreams up the existence of the girl, the girl is inside dreaming up the existence of them. ...It reminded me of Zhuangzi's butterfly dream... "Once Zhuangzi dreamt he was a butterfly, a butterfly flitting and fluttering around, happy with himself and doing as he pleased. He didn't know he was Zhuangzi. Suddenly he woke up and there he was, solid and unmistakable Zhuangzi. But he didn't know if he was Zhuangzi who had dreamt he was a butterfly, or a butterfly dreaming he was Zhuangzi." There's a kitschy part at the end where the reader can add a photo so the princess can look out as well. Perhaps it adds a bit of romantic irony to the book, but I thought it took away from the surrealism... It was interesting anyway, interesting enough to review and count as one of my 86 books for 2011. *The introduction* I realize I've been reviewing quite a few children's books lately, and sometimes I feel like that is cheating - my goodreads goal is 86 books by the end of the year. Of course, it only counts the books I review... my policy had always been only review the children's books that you've read 5 times... but then, tonight when I read what? 9 Children's books - including, but not limited to: I Love the Alphabet Froggy Loves Books Baby's Very First Colors Book The Foot Book Some Fancy Nancy, an Eloise story that I made up on the spot... you get the idea... I decided I'd review my favorite one. Second place wasn't bad either, Where's My Mommy? - but this one's my favorite. Here's why:

I'm being generous with the three stars, it's really more of a 2.5. I just did not enjoy this book as much as the first. I didn't really connect with Marina, and I hated Adelina, so it was a very welcome surprise to have John's POV too. However, John seemed to turn into quite the douche for a little while. I'm not sure if this was intentional or if it is just the difference in authors. Even Sarah's actions seemed out of character. Thank god for Sam, he is always fantastic.

Hồ Sơ Một Tử Tù (Tái Bản) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nguyễn Đình Tú

How has your past affected your preceptions of who you are now and who you could be? Open yourself to your past and read the message Derek is presenting in his book. A book written with a mix of his past and present soul, a soul that has found the answer to living fully in the present. Derek Steele got drunk for the first time at the age of eight. By the age of ten, he was addicted to pot, and by sixteen, he was addicted to alcohol, meth, and cocaine. He began selling drugs in junior high, dropped out of high school, and soon found himself behind bars. By the time he was twenty, he was homeless and in hiding from a vicious drug dealer who wanted him dead.With the help of God, mentors, and a twelve step program, he conquered his addictions and began rebuilding his life. In his inspiring story, Derek shares intimate details of his life, from the hopelessness of addiction to becoming the man he had always wanted to be. The title of this book ADDICT at 10 immediately caught my attention. How could a 10 year old boy be an addict? Where was this child's family? How could this happen? I just had to read this book. I give Derek tons of credit for writing this book. To share his life, open up and lay it all out, his complete life, for everyone to read. This book was shocking, enlightening and even ironically funny at times. When Derek speaks about how he came face to face with some big time drug dealers by his choice of course and in the middle of these grown men in this home is this grandma just hanging out. It just brought images of my mother walking around my home in her night gown and It made me laugh. But Derek's life was not laughing matter. The sad reality of this book is that there are so many like Derek out in our world. Just wandering around and wondering how they got into their situation and not knowing how to get out of it. Derek wrote this book because God wanted him to tell people about how bad it was for him. But also to teach people that losing yourself, your hopes and dreams can happen to anyone. You don't need to be a drug addict for this to happen to you. It all has to do with how people process and hold onto their past experiences from their childhood. You can say that it was the crowd Derek hung around with or you can put the blame on his parents. However everyone has issues in their life due to their past, some people just have larger ones. I took this book as a matter of perception. Since truthfully how we are raised is actually how we continue to exist for the rest of our lives, until or unless we learn to change or break that cycle. There is one sentence Derek wrote that hangs in my mind like an open doorway. He says that you cannot begin to live in the present until you move away from yourself and do for others. In other words if you are so wrapped up in your own aches, pains and trauma, which keeps you stuck in the past, how can you even begin to help another. How can you even raise a child? I am not quoting his phrase here I just wrote what I remember. Derek found peace in his life through God and he makes it a point in his book that this is an ongoing process for him. I believe this book has a message for everyone. If it does not enlighten you then maybe your are not an open minded individual. I am rating this book on Derek's awareness, his clarity and message delivered through this book. My ratings for this book review are not about judgement. Read the book and find out what message Derek has for you and your life. About the Author: Derek Steele is currently pursuing his mission of helping others achieve success by sharing his experience through writing and public speaking. He hopes Addict at Ten will help people understand how to keep the pain of their past from impeding their fulfillment in the future. Derek lives in Missouri City, Texas, with his wife, Becky, and their two children. A big Thank You goes out to Amy from Phenix and Phenix Literary Publicists for allowing my the opportunity to review this book. I have not been compensated in any way other than receiving the book above for my review. All opinions expressed above are solely my own.

I still can't believe I read all of these books. It was easy to get lost in the plot of this book, but it's definitely no "Beowulf," am I right? It's a guilty pleasure--nothing more. The kind of book you'd want to put a book cover on, lest someone get a glimpse of the cover while you're reading it at lunch.

A murder mystery with a paranormal touch. There is a kilker on the loose and one person who knows how it all went down. Frightening moments obscure this novel where the killer tries to silence Emily the one girl that is the one witness to a past murder. A real Nigtmare.Very intriguing read.

5 Centimet Trên Giây Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

Longwinded and preoccupied with history. In other short stories and books Proulx proved herself a master at casting a compelling story before a meaningful historical backdrop. To me, when history takes precedence over story the writing suffers. That's what happens here. Proulx doesn't seem to care about her characters so much as the ambitious task she has set before her, which is to follow the peripatetic path of a simple green organetto for a hundred years. Some of her plot twists are interesting. Some of her intersections with history are cool. Sometimes she's showing off. Everything is skullfully written, though, and, of course, we see the button accordion to the end of its life and a good deal of America along the way. Worth a read if you're in for a long, meandering story with hints of magic realism. Otherwise, read Close Range: wyo stories by Proulx and you'll see a powerful writer at work.

I first read Holden Caulfield bitch about everyone and everything (except his kid sister) when I was in high school and have read it several times in the 20 years since I graduated. Each time I love it as much as the first time...although I no longer identify with him due to a bad rash called teenage angst. I outgrew that along with my big '80s Flock of Seagulls glasses.
