Chế Độ Thực Dân Pháp Trên Đất Nam Kỳ (1859 - 1954) - Tập 2 Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nguyễn Đình Tư

This is the third of the Lord Peter Whimsy mysteries that I have read, and probably the one I have enjoyed least, so far. A bit too convoluted and hinging on obscure points of law. Still, the characters are still good and likable, and it's interesting that this is more a whydunnit than a whodunnit.

I'll probably read every novel that Curtis Sittenfeld writes because she does such a good job with first person voice and psychological depth. I loved Prep and even though I didn't love this book as much, it was very satisfying. The first 3 sections were much better than the last. The white house years were slow moving and less interesting to me, but the sections that lead up to the move to the white house were vivid coming-of-age and relationship stories. Maybe I just prefer coming-of-age stories because they provide the background for who the adult will become...and that is what Sittenfeld does so well. I also find that Sittenfeld really knows how to end her novels. The last three pages contain some very powerful paragraphs on questions of love/marriage and politics and responsibility. I really liked Alice Blackwell, and the Wisconsin settings. If this is an accurate portrayal of Laura Bush, she is an interesting person.

Story is picking up nicely. I am really starting to enjoy the character dynamics and they start to grow more accustomed to each other.

Collins - Key Business Skills (Kèm CD) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Barry Tomalin

The back cover blurb mentions the "off-kilter world" of Finley, our narrator: that's an understatement. This book is a detective story but not really, or rather, it's a detective story about finding oneself. It's set in a world that is almost our own but not quite, or maybe it is our world and all the not-quites are in Finley's head: it's hard to say. Finley works as an investigator of some sort, except that the assignments she and her co-workers get are surreal/bizarre: one of them is assigned to act as Lolita in a play; another is assigned something to do with rooftops. Finley is assigned to puppets, though she's not clear on what, exactly, she's meant to be investigating. She's also not clear on who, exactly, she is: early in the book, she tells us this: "I can win any contest involving silence or stillness or maintaining a straight face. I once, presumably out of some heartfelt anger, maintained a silence for so long I forgot who I was. With speech went character, with character memory, with memory me" (9). Yet even after this incident, Finley knows some things about herself, like the fact that she hates "the Russians," without knowing why: it's "maybe a memory that had been slow or stubborn and hadn't left with the rest. Or maybe not a memory at all but a new kind of fact, of which there might be more, revealing themselves at whim, over time" (29). That seems like a pretty good description of the narrative itself: lots of not-knowing, with things slowly emerging. There are a few plot points that emerge to the reader rather faster than Finley picks up on them, but there are also things about which the reader—or at least, this reader—is left quite in the dark. Overall, I liked the disorienting nature of the plot, and the wordplay of this book, plus the humor of Finley's narrative voice, are excellent. Also excellent are the interactions between Finley and other characters, like this: —Do you remember, said Murphy,—the Great China Wall? — Do you remember, I said,—how it's not called that. Murphy jangled his pockets. The day outside the warm wood of the Tiki Barn was as was its wont quite gray, and heavy, heavy with quiet. —Do you remember, said Murphy,—a time when you were not so difficult all the time? —I do not, I said,—remember such a time.

** spoiler alert ** Originally posted at Once Upon a Chapter Vampire Academy is the first book in the Vampire Academy series. It is an awesome first book and makes me want to read the rest of the series as soon as possible! Rose and Lissa have an unbreakable bond. It was forged in possibly the most terrifying moment of both girls’ lives. The cause of the bond remains a mystery for quite a bit of the book. It really adds to the plot line. As the reader you can know what both Rose and Lissa are feeling through the bond. The story opens with Lissa and Rose staying on a college campus while trying to finish up their high school degrees. Two years ago Rose managed to convince Lissa to leave protected St. Vladimir’s campus in Montana and have been on the run ever since. Finally, St. Vladimir Academy gets serious and sends professional guardians out to retrieve Lissa and Rose. Neither is very happy about going back to the school. Once there, life returns to normal. Both Lissa and Rose have quite a bit of learning to make up for. Rose is on house arrest except for school and her extra training sessions with Dimitri. Most everyone at the school accepts the prodigals return without too much drama. Mia, Lissa’s boyfriend’s new girlfriend, wants both girls’ reputations ruined. Mia will do anything to keep the spotlight off her. It makes Rose’s task of keeping Lissa safe more difficult. In general, Rose would be happy to silence Mia. Not too long into the school year, threats start making their way to Lissa. They seem a little over the top even for Mia, so who wants to scare Lissa? Does the unseen foe mean to harm Lissa or just shake her up? Wow! This book kept me glued to the pages (errr, buttons as it were) through the whole story. I didn’t feel like it dragged once. This is a young adult book and there isn’t anything beyond a heavy make out session as far as heat goes. Lissa and Rose are very close. They have a unique friendship that sadly isn’t found more often in the real world. Mead does set up a love triangle with Rose and two other male characters. I have a feeling I know where it’s going to lead but I always feel so torn between both men because they both have their own attributes that make them perfect for the heroine! Despite the conflict that I know is coming involving the relationship, I know that the Vampire Academy series is going to be one amazing ride!

Excellent. I love Max's spunk and sarcasim. Every character of the flock is well developed. I wish they'd go a bit more into the enemies, however that would ruin the book as it only follows the flock around.

** spoiler alert ** I think this is a great book--a nice quick read that keep that kept me much more captivated than the other books that I've been reading lately. I did get a little tired of reading the phrase "inane laugh," and I wished Orczy had explained how Percy knew about all of Marguerite's dealings, but overall it was very enjoyable.

I have never read Canterbury Tales before, despite being a liberal arts major in college. I am actually listening to the audio version from audible.com and enjoying it very much. This is quite a treasure!
