Bảo Đại - Hoàng Đế Cuối Cùng Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Lý Nhân Phan Thứ Lang

A huge fan of Rick Moody's book Garden State, I was eager to read Purple America. But I could not get into this book at all. The prose was choppy and so I did not feel for any of the characters. I suppose in retrospect I was looking for a cross between Empire Falls and The Corrections.

Lonely Planet Pocket Singapore Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Cristian Bonetto

Actual Rating: 3.5 Reading Watched is somewhat akin to being tossed into the deep end of a pool with little or no warning while our surety of our ability to tread water is far less than absolute, and so we begin this tale left to our own devices, floundering to catch our breath and open our eyes despite the sting and disorientation in trying to do so. We struggle a bit as Mikayla is brutally attacked, her understanding of what’s happening to her chaotic and bizarre, fed to us in flashes and short sentences that give us just a few moments to claw our heads above water and search out the familiar before we are plunged back under. So much of the world Ms. Richardson has created is darkly intriguing, however, we are given pieces of so many different aspects to Mikayla’s new existence without any of them fully expounded upon that we find ourselves continually searching for–but not finding–the footing that will allow us to break the surface, blink away the excess drops of water, and finally see clearly. Mikayla has a the potential to be an extraordinarily strong and memorable heroine, her snarky attitude amusing and her ability to digest her new supernatural role in life admirable, but at times the overabundance of teenage slang that falls from her mouth dilutes some of the richness we know is there. This “teenage speak” is most apparent in the beginning chapters, but luckily it seems to taper off a bit as the story progresses though every once in a while it’s as though we’re listening to a favorite record, completely absorbed in the sound and the lyrics until all of a sudden Mikayla resorts to that slang and causes the record to skip, jolting us from our reverie. By the end a tenuous bond has formed, one that could easily strengthen depending on how she grows in subsequent books or one that could just as easily fizzle, fading away to nothing because some of her phrases and mannerisms block our way to knowing the girl behind them. In addition to a young woman we definitely want to get to know better despite our inability to figure out how to crack her shell, we also find ourselves challenged by the seeming immensity of her role as a Hunter of demons. Terms are tossed around but not fully defined, her past is oh-so briefly alluded to but never illuminated, and her relationship with Sentry Lucas we're told is complicated for reasons that have yet to be revealed to us. By the time we reach the last page, even the most unorganized of us has an almost overwhelming desire to make a chart that details all the things we know and compare them to the colossal number of questions we have remaining, however before we can we're quickly catapulted out of the story on a cliffhanger that leaves us blinking in disbelief. Overall, despite the confusing nature of how we are introduced to the world of demon hunting, this is an entertaining read with a very tense and interesting relationship between Mikayla and Lucas that could easily turn into one of those unforgettable and deliciously difficult romances. The desire to know more outweighs the slight frustration of being left with so many things unaddressed, and I will certainly be continuing on to see if Mikayla allows herself that growth and maturity I know is there waiting.

Học Tiếng Anh Qua Các Câu Chuyện Kể Tập 2 (Dùng Kèm 5 Đĩa VCD) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: series

This is certainly a strange book (and it was taught to me by a super-strange teacher), but as I read it through several times, I understood why people are fascinated by it. The story at first seems relatively ordinary, but little by little the reader starts to get the feeling that it isn't the story that matters here. I read it in French and have never seen the English translation, but I suspect a translation can't really do this one justice...

I really loved Ender's Game and wanted to read more by Card, but this book was not good. I was very drawn into the story and was really enjoying reading it, as well as interested in seeing Card write openly about Mormanism, but the ending was just absolute religious crap and I was beyond disgusted with it.

Hướng Nội - Sức Mạnh Của Sự Yên Lặng Trong Một Thế Giới Nói Không Ngừng Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Susan Cain

Although I found the premise interesting, I hated the women in this book. They were far too weak to warrant my sympathy. Maybe this book came to me at the wrong time in life, because they just pissed me off.
