12 Mảnh Ghép Vũ Trụ - Vương Quốc Sư Tử Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Asbooks biên soạn

Gostei da Londres paralela que nos é apresentada, este novo Universo, que tem muito potencial para ser explorado ainda. Houve no entanto partes em que acho que a história se tornou demasiado descritiva, e acabou por se perder um bocado...e aí foi difícil manter o ritmo da leitura. Apesar de tudo, acabou por valer a pena. Adorei o Dicionário, o Relojoeiro e até o pequeno Tragédia, personagens muito originais. Gostei também da forma como a história é contada, interagindo com o leitor. Conto ler o próximo livro.

Like The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, Yunior is a key character here, and the main character/voice in all but a story or two. I very much enjoyed these stories, and Diaz's writing style. It's visual and gritty, which fits well with the content. For example: "with the sun sliding out of the sky like spit off a wall." The focus of the stories as a group is on race, being from the DR in America/becoming American, poverty, and family struggles. The family issues revolve mostly around Yunior's dad, who is abusive to some extent and semi-disappears for five years when he goes to America before bringing his family after him. Yunior takes the difficult parts of his life in stride - they aren't really unusual. But he does notice their effects: "Tia looked a ton like Mami; the two of them were both short and light-skinned. Tia smiled a lot and that was what set them apart the most." A few of the stories seemed calculated to shock or surprise the reader more than anything else. The titular story, Drown, is one of these. But even that story has its moments that provoke thought: "I've tried to explain, all wise-like, that everything changes, but [Mami] thinks that sort of saying is only around so you can prove it wrong." Race is also a major theme, and several of the stories discuss what it's like to be brown in America. The story How to Date a Browngirl, Blackgirl, Whitegirl, or Halfie stands out from the rest as it is written in the second person. Its an obvious attempt to put the reader in Yunior's skin, but what's most interesting in the story is how the "you" of the story treats girls (and expects to be treated by them) based on their race. It's the local stereotypes in action, and it's what "you" (and all of us) cling to in order to keep our lives a little predictable and understandable, and to help us understand the place we occupy in the world. This is brought home in the following statement - both sadly and poignantly: "Tell her that you love her hair, that you love her skin, her lips, because, in truth, you love them more than you love your own." Themes: race, America, Dominican Republic, Hispanic, immigration, poverty, sex, violence, fear, short stories

Luật Phòng Chống Mua Bán Người Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

One of my very favorite mystery writers and this series (she has 2) is my favorite of hers. Terrific well written first book in a relatively short series, and Padgett’s first book. The likeable sleuth protagonist has bipolar disorder and is a child abuse investigator. Takes place in southern California and includes interesting Native American characters. Unique and exceptional mystery series.

A very good, fresh look at the Catholic Church. This was a gift from our local Bishop given to every family in the diocese.

Few political writers get to the heart of major issues the way James Bovard does. While this is somewhat more of a large data dump than his other titles, the book is still very informative and relevant, even years after its publication. Worth your time.

Mẹ Hỏi Con Đáp - Hỏi Đáp Tự Nhiên Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

I was dissatisfied with the book over all. I need to believe in the characters and I really didn't like Dr. Faraday in particular. I kept waiting for something to happen that would really draw me into the the characters...never happened. I think the most disconcerting part for me was the dog being put down. The book left me rather wanting.

Ly Hôn (Tiểu Thuyết) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

i really only thought this book was okay, except i can't forget how convinced i was that i was reading the words of a woman the entire time. wally lamb totally nailed the female voice and perspective on this one, i particularly liked the bit about the goldfish in the sink. that's something my mother probably would have (or may have) done. i can't say exactly what is is about his writing style that grabs me, either. it isn't specifically feminine or even really epicene, but he really translates the experiences that many young women endure with such eloquence and understanding that i forgot several times that the book had been written by a man. however, i almost gave it two stars because he uses the words "bucking as i came" which is just gross. really, wally, we don't "buck" when we come. what the hell is that even supposed to mean? and he uses it more than once! i specifically remember (i read this book quite a few years ago, i think i was still in grade school, and i remember then being like "WHAT EW peopleBUCK when they WHAT? that is SO GROSS! what IS bucking? i am NEVER having sex! " and obviously the pictures that came to my mind were bambi and like cowboys on horseback. which was awkward for me. anyway) i specifically remember the phrase/word being used several times. bad call, wally lamb. regardless, the book was too good for that to tarnish my opinion of it.
