i don't know how much of this is based on fact, but it makes learning something about mozart's life and made it a great story. i guess it is a good place to start if you are a fiction reader who wants to learn something about a real person.
Don't know how this system works but this my core thought: a travesty for those who have read Little Women and no interest if you haven't. It is immensely irritating: full of behavoural and mental anachronisms. I didn't believe any of the rendition of Marmee, the references to Little Women travestied the book; the historical knowledge was thin but worn like a mantle to disguise the other shortcomings. Shame because I rather like the concept - you hear so little about the father in Little Women. But this wasn't him.
Loved it.
I finished this book wondering if it was funny and poignant to me because I've been exposed to medical humor all my life. Having read a few snippets of it to friends and such now, I think it's actually just laugh-out-loud funny sometimes. This is a collection edited by Dr. Brown of stories from the ER nurses and Docs around America. Many of them are hilarious, some of them highlight the frustrating powerlessness that doctors are often confronted with, and some are tear-jerkers. Most of them are pretty short - I think the longest one was five or six pages - and written in the very cut-suture-close style that most doctors have, with few frills. It was this very austere style, I think, that made it remarkable those details that they did find salient enough to include. While I've never fallen fully into the idea of doctors as less-than-human [again, they've always been around in my life:], the way these contributors note... age, what their kids look like, the way that spouses/siblings voices sound on the phone, the look in their eyes. The story that stuck with me the most was a fire-medic-cum-triage nurse who got a trauma case out of a car accident who arrived with constant compressions administered. As soon as they stopped compressions, the guy went agonal and died, but when they started compressions again he opened his eyes and was alert and at least semi-aware. He couldn't talk, of course, around the ambu bag, and they couldn't stabilize him as far gone as he was, but everyone in that room had to make the choice to actually stop treating a man who was alive as long as they humped on him, and let him die. The contributor was the man who actually spoke to the guy while someone else did comps and explained it to him. How would you word that? 'we can't save you on a permanent basis, or even stabilize you enough to say goodbye to anyone. as long as we keep working on you, you are technically alive and have brain function, but we're going to stop now. there's no point in it for us.'
this is an awesome book though i wish the ending went for longer

The descriptions in this book took me away to a different world. I enjoyed the writing style and the stories that were laced throughout the book. The ending really made me think because it changed the way I looked at the characters. What I thought I knew, was not what was. The first book I have had to think about in awhile.

I honestly can't believe that I just now got around to finally reading this series. I've read her YA series "The Summoning'" and really enjoyed it. I'm surprised it's taken me this long to read Her Otherworld series. however, once I started to watch that syfy show "Bitten" it certainly made its way up to the to of my TBR pile. I love Elena and Clay!
Its a magical book, that takes you through the history of New York City by following the life of one man. It is incredibly interesting, though it may be a little difficult to get into at first. One of my favorite books.

I have just re-read this for about the fifth time, and it gets better with every reading. Arguably Wolfe's finest novel, this is almost a primer in how 'real world' fantasy ought to be written. The one proviso is that if you are the sort of person that needs to know what is happening all the way through, you will be very frustrated, as to begin with the reader is in as much a state of mystery as the main character. I love the way Wolfe plays with us, making it not quite clear whether the fantasy part is really happening, or just part of a mental patient's delusion. (I'm reminded of that great Buffy episode where it's possible that the whole show is essentially the delusions of a disturbed young woman, but in the end she decides to abandon reality... though of course There Are Doors was there first.) The story veers from dream to nightmare, near reality to the sort of thing you'd see in a 1920s horror film. Word for word it delivers perfection. And, for once, Wolfe overcomes his greatest fault of not knowing quite how to end a book. Not everyone will agree, but for me, quite possibly my favourite novel ever.
I couldn't get through it. It seemed like such a waste of time to try to finish it.
