Từ Điển Minh Họa Bằng Hình ANH - HOA - VIỆT Theo Tình Huống Thế Kỷ XXI (Kèm 1 CD) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nhiều Tác Giả

This is total war on an interstellar scale. Also, the antagonistic aliens are evil. Period! So not a lot of page time is spent in trying to defend or rationalise their actions. What? They actually eat their enemies? They look like spiders? Kill them all, says I! Yep, that’s more or less the gist of it. These vile alien invaders are following humans into federation space, butchering everything in their path. Humans respond in kind. Only, it seems that the aliens are rather single minded and purposeful when it comes to their food source, and trounce the humans at every turn. Perhaps trounce is not a strong enough word: thesaurus recommends decimate or slaughter as alternatives. Thus, the scene is set for spectacular space battles and alliances with (other, more agreeable) aliens to try and stem the tide of destruction. A lot of thought and detail have gone into these engagements on a tactical as well as a strategic level. I suppose it can become a bit much, so it’s fortunate that the battles are handled with quite a bit of flair. Each race has their own unique attributes and as a consequence their own strengths, and these play a part in the depicted battles. Personally, I liked it quite a bit. It’s pretty hectic, to be sure, but it is a fine example of good military science fiction. In Death Ground has received many favourable reviews and I tend to agree with them. This book does exactly what it sets out to do and moments of nail-biting suspense counterpoint the battle sequences nicely. It is, however, a rather hefty work for this kind of thing and there’s even a sequel weighing in at about a hundred or so pages more (The Shiva Option). If I were to complain about something, this is where I’d start. It would have been nice if the story concluded here. On the other hand, it's so compelling I have already started with the sequel.

Đầu Tư Cho Mối Quan Hệ Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Before there was Mark Study, there was "The Jesus I Never Knew". This book stripped away all of my preconceptions and disdain of the gospel and replaced it with a wonder at the person of Jesus I claimed to follow. For myself, the single most impactful book of my pre-college Christian walk.

At the tender age of 13 I fell in love with Nicholas and Alexandra and their children reading Readers Digest while baby sitting. This is the best account of Alex's life I have read. Carrolly Erickson's ability to write a biography that reads like fiction is amazing.

Mắt Phố Giữa Chiều Rơi Ngược Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

My daughter shared this with me and my son over Christmas and we got pretty fascinated by it. It's pretty interesting to get a completely different feel from the Bible by reading it in contemporary language. I can't comment on the scholarship, but the writing is very readable.

This is a collection of short stories that overall were vivid and wonderful. I truly enjoy Ursula's writing style and she is able to have the reader connect to the character within a few sentences. And while I bought this book close to 4 years ago - I'm glad I finally read it.

Âm Dương Kinh - Tái bản 2003 Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Zi Ma Shan Ren

My apologies but once more i am in a situation of trying to review a book that I finished reading more than a month ago and ok i better start writing things about it before making this review again looking like a mini chapter of my diary (that i dont have by the way...perhaps i should start one avoiding to add personal and sometimes even private things to goodreads quite often,oops i started again...i'd better focus much better...come on!!!) This book has attracted my interest when i saw it was available in booklending this new amazon thing that lets kindle owners of any kind (even for pc) to be able to borrow e-books from others for a limited period for two weeks without any fee at all, that's a nice feature. If i recall well it was a girl named Jessica that had this so whoever she is (and in case she is reading this) thank you... a bit late for that but better late than ever right? About the book now...yes it was about time for that to happen, here we go... What seemed to have made it look unique was that it was dealing with an original subject, bipolar disorder and even more fascinating it was the fact that the writer herself suffers from that syndrome and should know so much better how hard it is in some moments to be dealt with not only from the one that is having it but also from his family members, friends, beloved ones etc... Unfortunately it wasnt so much as I expected it to be, didn't go so much deep in analyzing not only Annabelle's brother that had it in the book but even Annabelle herself though it looked like it would be much more detailed from the first chapter when she was talking about it to a therapist. The novel is quite simple, mostly it is about a girl that has worries if the relationship with her boyfriend is going on quite well since he's not exactly the perfect guy, if she's ready to make that next step that her boyfriend is asking for though she is not ready...then having to deal with losing her boyfriend for not giving in to him, and not only that but to face the rumors he spread for her and of course to try and keep her brother out of trouble who goes mad in his attempt to make things right for his sister. Afterwards a new guy appears, quite soon, there is mutual attraction but still the main story is how everything becomes messy due to some parties that things went really out of order, the police comes in the way...drugs as well...steroids...it gets just too complicated from one moment on (and perhaps not so easy to be read by really young adults that it's mostly aimed to have as "target group" obviously) with one fact following another confusing the reader about what's really happening. I believe that it would have been much better if the person that was telling the story was the brother himself so we the readers would get a clearer view of how it feels having to deal with a situation like this... From Annabelle's point of view there are many things missing... she doesn't know when to blame her brother and when is he influence by that or not. In addition to that there should have been more reference to the parents and how hard it is for them to handle things. Moreover since the mother, who is a writer, is also bipolar but not so many things mentioned about her... how she finds her way out how she managed not to let this issue bother her so much. There is also the father, that his role in the story is even minor, doesn't look that much of an ideal father to deal with that kind of family… it’s easier for him to make things worse than helping the situation acting in that way that he does… I am sorry that I don’t recall many of the names anymore so I am referring to most of the characters as Annabelle’s brother mother father ex etc… I will try to be more detailed in the future when writing a new review and don’t let so much time pass after having finished reading the book. I tried to check other reviews here to get an idea of the names but none seemed to have written so many stuff in order to “help” me hehe but it’s ok... So…conclusion… despite the negative facts written above this book had some moments that really urged me to keep on reading it (that and of course the “deadline” of two weeks that was passing which would automatically removed the book out of my kindle… ) but for completely different reasons that I initially had in mind… Perhaps if I was looking for a young adult book with a bit of romance and mystery inside I would even put one more star to it…so three stars it is and I am looking forward to reading more reviews about it and see how others feel after reading it cause the current ones are quite small and I can’t have a complete idea... so those of you who read both my review and the book write one yourself as well ok? Thanks in advance :)

This started off ok: a boy disappears from his day care. I couldn't figure out why only one person had a cell phone, then realized it was set in the late 90s (based on the copyright). It lost creditability with me when the mother randomly slept with the lead detective. Then it got overly long, preachy and boring, and the poor editing started to grate in me. Skip this one, I can summarize it in two words: go green.

I read this book over February break, staying in my pajamas, curled on the couch for THREE days straight, never putting it down. There are some books that I've read where the imagery continues to haunt me even years after the book is read. This book did that.

Tuyển Tập Nam Cao (Tái Bản 2016) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nam Cao

Another great re-read ... much more thoroughly enjoyed this time, as it takes place, in part, on a cruise ship. Having just enjoyed a fantastic cruise last year, and anticipating another in early 2016, I could relate to so many of their experiences. Further, our next cruise will take us to Ensanada, Mexico, so I was interested in their experiences there. I sure don't plan to drive while we're there. But the spiritual insights shared in this hilarious adventure of the sisterchicks, make it an all around fantastic read.
