Nhật Ký Nguyễn Ngọc Tấn Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nguyễn Thi

Great literature is "Great" provided the notion that such books worthy of this distinction are virtually guaranteed to satisfy; and there is more to absorb, yet as much as there is given. Helen Hunt Jackson’s Romana can be considered among those ranks, as it stands the test of time, on through the new generations of readers such as myself, and thankfully so. This book is like a perfectly aged wine in that it only grows sweeter with an artful bitter undertone, the further you get in the narrative, the more time that elapses among readings, liked timed and patient sips. It is one of those books you do want to end, but, at the same time, yearn for that peaceful resolve to its enthralling arc. The narrative is much like an archetypal design plot for a telenovela. The characters are classic in their roles and fit well into the historical periodization of the realistically fictional account of a young girl’s maturation through progressively tragic trials and tribulations. Ramona, or Majella, as she is known by the numerous California-based Native American tribes that appear in the story, is religious, innocent, and beautiful, young Moreno princess of the Mexican California Republic with a dark and secret past. After her falling in love with the young, handsome, and honest Temeculan, Alessandro, was discovered by the matriarch of the noble estate of her residence, Ramona is cast out with her young Native American prince into a world of love-filled devotion wrought with hardship and despair. The story is set in the mid-to-late 1800s when the Anglo-Americans where beginning their hostile settlement of Southern California. As such, the couple is driven from one paradise to another, until they are left with no options but to seek refuge in a hidden canyon on a mountain peak. My use of the term “paradise” refers to the beauty of California’s natural environment as portrayed in the book. Actually, Jackson’s literary landscape paintings are one of the best qualities of this novel. This book does far more than the customary ‘noble savage’ genre, popular well into the 19th century, strives for. And Jackson has a remarkable way of unearthing the psychological states and motivations of her characters that gives a potentially superficial type of romance novel into a true work of literary depth. Jackson addressed many still controversial themes with a distinct sharpness and with a quality of timeless poignancy that can pierce the hearts of those with any shred of compassion left for the truth of both this State’s and this Nation’s painful history. Much of the writing provokes an emotional reaction. Her fleshing out of characters makes us care for and admire the heroes and heroines of the story just as much as we harbor a disdain for the villains. I wonder if Aunt Ri was meant to be a direct characterization of Jackson's personality and sentiment. This writing in this book is so rich, I am not sure if I would like to see any of three film versions based on it because I am afraid it might blemish the delectable taste it has left in my heart and mind. Bottom line if you are Californian, read it.

Em, Cún Bông Và Tôi Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Lưu Quang Minh

Ramona continues her daily adventures... only this time, she finally escapes the tyranny of the elderly Mrs. Kemp and discovers that her parents are going to have a new baby! Ramona's distrust of her upcoming role as the middle child is charming, but this book doesn't quite live up to the hysterical flashes of insight in Ramona's literary debut, Ramona the Pest.

Dạy Con Kiểu Nhật - Giai Đoạn 0 Tuổi Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Kubota Kisou

Oh god. This short story wasn't very good. I felt that there was too much going to to be covered in such a small amount of space. In addition, the author tries to do that mystery thing where they don't release the full details from the beginning when the story is being set up. You probably know what I'm talking about, when an author has the reader come in in the middle of a conversation and over the first few chapters the plot and relevant background info slowly seeps out. Sometimes that hooks me, but here it is just confusing. I'm not sure if that was because this was book #8 and the rest of the series addressed the issues or if it's because the story was poorly set up. I also didn't believe the romance between the two characters. I just didn't feel the longing, I wasn't surprised by the ending. Overall, I was just completely unimpressed.

Hồng Lâu Mộng: Liên Hoàn Họa - Quyển Hạ Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Tào Tuyết Cần

This book is unbelievably amazingly touching. It tells the story of REAL true love. David Nicholls made me laugh, made me cry, and made me yearn for love as beautiful and honest as Em and Dex's. There should be more novels that speak of how love works in real life as One Day exemplifies. This is definitely one of my all-time favorites.

Nắng Tháng Tám (Tái Bản 2016) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: William Faulkner

Ughh. So boring. I couldn't force myself to finish it. I got through about 100 pages, and that was like pulling teeth. The book seemed so pointless, and there were a lot of words for nothing really happening. On the other hand, so many people gave it great reviews. Perhaps I was missing something?

Nhật Ký Công Chúa - Tập 7: Nàng Công Chúa Tiệc Tùng (Tủ Sách Teen Thế Kỷ 21 Của Báo Hoa Học Trò) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Meg Cabot

I wanted to like this one, I really did. I have enjoyed many of the authors articles. This book, however, has lots of pretty pictures and way to little info in my opinion. Perhaps it might make a nice read for one who is mildly curious about chickens, but for any novice who is seriously considering raising them I suggest skipping this one and just buying the Storey guide.

Hạt Giống Tâm Hồn - Những Câu Chuyện Cuộc Sống (Tập 7) - Tái bản 2012 Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nhiều Tác Giả

What do I say about Vanish that hasn't already been said on every other blog? It's amazing, it's well-written, it's one of the best books I've read so far this year. Sometimes I have a phobia of reading the next book in a series, worried that it won't be as good as it's predecessor. This one? Better. Hands down. Jacinda is back and she's just as stubborn and passionate as ever. In fact, I really felt closer to Jacinda in this story because her emotions are so much stronger. She knows what she wants, and she's not afraid to break the rules if that's what it takes. As always, it doesn't exactly make her a popular character, but this time... well I won't spoil it but let's just say she takes some others along for the ride. I have always loved Jacinda's fire. That's why I was so happy that it is present and accounted for. One pleasant surprise for me though was that Cassian's personality is a lot more fleshed out in Vanish. I got to know so much more about him, and I really loved it. If I was having a hard time choosing a side before, now I'm even more lost. Readers will get a much better idea of the day to day life of the pride, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The plot is quick, but easy to follow, and the action sequences abound without taking the spotlight from the bigger picture. The relationships between Jacinda and the people in her pride are so much more vivid in this book. Characters that were previously hidden in the shadows emerge, develop, and become so essential to the story. Vanish gave me a new appreciation for the world that Sophie Jordan had so meticulously built. I simply cannot wait for the next book! If you fell in love with Firelight, I'm going to personally guarantee that you'll eat Vanish up. Whether you are on the side of Will, or the side of Cassian, this installment has a great fiery love triangle that burns up the page. Pair that with a great story line and you have a book that I devoured. Start to finish in one night. Sophie Jordan fans rejoice! There is one more book left in this fabulous trilogy. Just be warned, the ending of this one will leave you wanting more.

Needed to start this when I went to Spokane for three days, simply because the Cornwell book I was reading wouldn't fit in my purse for the flight. I really like this guy's writing! This was a unique story, a unique perspective, well written.
