This book provides a very good insight into the nature of humankind, but don't start reading it because you expect a funny story just because it has a funny title. It isn't a nice little adventure story, but an account of what would most likely actually happen in a situation like this. It really makes you think.

Being a New Englander, I love the Vermont scenery in the Joe Gunther series. Scent of Evil was no exception. But it wasn't his best novel. One of my friends (who happens to be from VT) turned me on to this series and I didn't start at the beginning. I have recently gone back and read the first few, this being the third. Although I liked this, he's done better in later (and earlier) books.

A quick, interesting read about a turn of the century "gentleman" who is rescued from sea by a sealing vessel, the Ghost, and its tyrannical captain Wolf Larsen. At times it became repetitive, but such was the style of the day. I was a little bothered by how much London harped on his time's conception of manhood (tough, strong and physically vigorous) and femaleness (delicate, slight, "sublimated spirit," etc.) but otherwise the book was pretty good.

Caused me to think a lot about my interactions with animals, no matter the species. Very well thought out.

This book was hilarious, touching, and everything I love about YA. It even has Shakespeare. Bonus. Everyone should go read it. (I might write a more detailed review...maybe...but really, just go read it.)

The ending was absolutely amazing. To use Krysten's word, which I find most fitting to properly describe its amazingness, it was epic. The Trial of God is a play and these characters set up a trial against God, with defendants and prosecutors and they basically debate the merits and drawbacks to faith. It is very possibly the best book I've ever read. And the ending...I can't get over it, it's so great. It's mind boggling.

this review is part of an essay found on threeserendipity.blogspot.com... ...on the flight home, I inadvertently picked up The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho. I was deciding between the Coelho, and Cormac McCarthy –but I felt a little too tender to read about an apocalyptic future. For whatever reason, I had imagined The Alchemist as something fun and colorful ala Gabriel Garcia Marquez, or Jorge Amado. Boy, was I bummed. For those of you who don’t know: “The Alchemist (Portuguese: O Alquimista) is a bestseller novel that is the most famous work of author Paulo Coelho. It is a symbolic story that urges its readers to follow their dreams. Originally published in Greece in 1988, The Alchemist has been translated into 61 languages, a guinness world record for the book translated in most languages. It has sold more than 65 million copies in more than 150 countries, becoming one of the best-selling books in history.” See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Alch.... Chief in its principals the book espouses the philosophy that when you take steps towards your personal destiny, the universe does all it can to cooperate. It positively encourages taking leaps of faith, but the dark side of this reads that the only reason you don’t get to your goals, is because you have not committed deeply enough to your “personal legend” or are blocked by fear. I don’t disagree whole-heartedly with these assertions, but there is something politically idiotic about the assumptions. For example, would things have worked out differently for the Etowah had they had a copy of The Alchemist? Or my relatives in Omaha, Georgia? Or perhaps, my grandfather would still be at the lake had he exhibited more dedication to his “personal legend”. Truth be told, books like this (Celestine Prophesy, The Secret, et all.) make me so mad I could spit. Sharper minds than mine, can no doubt quickly deconstruct what is wrong with such a book from any number of philosophical perspectives. Instead I just get flummoxed trying to explain to loved ones who dutifully swallow these adages and cliches and who consequently beat themselves up trying to replicate the success described there. It makes me want to scream: life is so much more complicated, ambiguous, gorgeous, mysterious, enlivening, tragic, passionate, cruel, and dare I say “sacred?” than this. Yes these ramblings have a tinge of truth to them – but I still smell snake oil!
قرأت الكتاب بخمس ايام,كان ممتع جدا لكميه المشاعر المركزه فيه,ولكن لا اعتبره روايه ,مشاعر جميله وكلماته ساحره,ولكن قصة الحب المذكوره ليست جميله,شاب يحب بنت وهي ساحبه عليه,مااعرف كيف تعلق فيها لهذا الحد. (يبلغ الذكور بلذة،وتبيلغ الأنثى بألم) (لكن دائما ماتكون القرارات الأكثر صوابا في حياتي هي تلك التي حذرني منها الجميع) (أوجع الصدمات تنفجر بعنف ثم تخبو نيرانها يوما بعد يوم حتى تصل حد الجمره الأخيره التي لاتفنى)

Although I don't usually need actors or television personalities to offer me poetry ideas...Their picks are some of my long time favorites! And, leave it to Phillip Seymore Hoffman to introduce me to one of my new FAV poems. I knew Jason Shinder,the man who was so kind and encouraging to all. He is greatly missed.
