In the ninth grade, I wrote an essay about how Holden Caufield is a phony. My teacher disagreed.

I don't like Frank Miller. Or, rather, I don't like Frank Miller's interpretation of Batman. This book is a perfect example why: while Batman is certainly not the most sane of people, in this story he's plain crazy. And arrogant. And crazy. And brutal. And he's lacking most of the qualities I like about Batman; the fact that he cares about people. And his behaviour towards Dick/Robin. Well. I can sort of see what Frank Miller wants to accomplish, but I don't like it at all. It's too brutal, too - real, maybe. Real in the sense that it would be a legit reading of Bruce Wayne's and Batman's actions. But having this Batman as a role model would be like having Jack Bauer as a role model, and personally, I don't think that's a good idea. I was shaking my head most of the time while I was reading it. But admittedly, I also laughed, and I Jim Lee's artwork sure is pretty and nice to look at.

I enjoyed the book a great deal, much more than Jodi's last one. Her literary style is getting a little too predictable and pat. I would love it if she would surprise us all with her next book. Her topic is a fascinating one and her meticulous research that goes into her books comes through. The ending had me intrigued. I wonder if anyone else out there had the same thought that I did?

I have to admit I've actually gotten a little tired of this series and have even missed reading a few recent titles. But Robb/Roberts redeemed herself with this book. I like that it didn't start with a dead body and that Peabody was front and center.

If you hate tiny font, don't pick up my edition (the 2005 paperback published by Knopf books).

This was a fantastic read, comprehensible and witty. Thanks to the reader reviews I picked up a book I normally would not have searched out.

I'd heard about Nicholas Carr before, but only briefly and the people discussing him didn't like what he had to say about whatever book or books they'd read of his. I knew nothing about him except that he wrote about technology. Last week someone on Facebook posted a link to an article about reading which mentioned Nicholas Carr's new book, The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains. The quote caught my attention because it mentioned Narnia and Susan Pevensie, my favorite character in the series: "But then there are the people Nicholas Carr writes about in The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains, and Carr himself: people who know what it is like to be lost in a book, who value that experience, but who have misplaced it—who can't get back, as Lucy Pevensie for a time can't get back to Narnia; what was an opening to another world is now the flat planked back of a wardrobe. They're the ones who need help, and want it, and are prepared to receive it." Alan Jacobs in We Can't Teach Students to Love Reading Unfortunately it was Jacobs who inserted the Narnia image (he is, after all, a professor at Wheaton College in Illinois, home of The Wardrobe). Despite that omission, I actually enjoyed this book. I enjoyed it more at the beginning, before I started disagreeing with some of his theories, but since he was able to back up his theories with many references to publications and studies, who was I to argue? One part of the book I do agree with -- that the Internet is distracting. I do believe that it has become a huge distraction for me, especially when I consider what it has done to my reading habits. I used to read books constantly, but now I find it hard to get through one book a month. Although, given the right reading material (and this book was one example of that) I can lose myself in a book. It turns out that in 2008 I picked up a copy of The Atlantic with the ominous question, "Is Google Making us Stoopid?" The cover article, by Carrr was a precursor to this book. I never read the article though, not because it was not interesting, but because I was too distracted, probably by the Internet.

The idea was good: writing Pride & Prejudice from the point of view of Mr Darcy. It was the perfect way to find out more about the mysterious Darcy and how he saved the Bennets' reputation. The book is written in the form of a diary, which could have been an interesting - and different - way to re-tell the story. Sadly, only the months (which were chapters, sort of) and dates at the beginning of every entry reminded me that it was indeed a diary. Darcy wote about the events as if they were happening, and to the word. I know this is fiction, but no one ever writes a diary this way. Also, many pieces were taken straight from Pride & Prejudce, which is perhaps the reason why I did enjoy this book. It was a way to read the story once again, but in a 'fresher' way. The downside, though, is that you get to understand Darcy, to know what's going on in his head, and it totally spoiled the character for me. He came across as fickle, like a teenage boy. And what makes Mr Darcy Mr Darcy is his cold, haughty attitude. So the constant "I love Elisabeth, but I must stop thinking about her. Oh but I caaaaaan't" made me cringe a little. At the end, Amanda Grange imagines what the first months of Mr and Mrs Darcy may have been like, but it's short and not very thoughtful. It could have brought something to the initial story but it did not. To put it in a nutshell, it's a nice read but you might as well pick Austen's story.
