This is a quicky read but with a lasting impression. Surprisingly, despite its erotic theme, the stories are not taboo with believable plots, a bit of twist which somehow awakens our senses...Indeed a "criminal minder"!

this was a good book! I'm stating a bit of disbelief as I pretty much have sworn off of nazi books. But this book, written from the mind of a pre-teen girl who had seen too much of life already, was believable and readable without the stomachturning crunch of what you already know about WW II and Nazis and Jews, etc.

Heartbreaking and wonderful. Leaves me with so many feelings to sort out. And now I must reread Little Women to look at Marmee anew.

Touching and sad. Why do all the best children's books make me cry?

Horror is not my thing (read this as an assignment for YA genre study) but this was light on the horror and more fantasy/adventure. Some spooky stuff but enough mystery/adventure to pull me along. Entertaining audio.

My apologies but once more i am in a situation of trying to review a book that I finished reading more than a month ago and ok i better start writing things about it before making this review again looking like a mini chapter of my diary (that i dont have by the way...perhaps i should start one avoiding to add personal and sometimes even private things to goodreads quite often,oops i started again...i'd better focus much better...come on!!!) This book has attracted my interest when i saw it was available in booklending this new amazon thing that lets kindle owners of any kind (even for pc) to be able to borrow e-books from others for a limited period for two weeks without any fee at all, that's a nice feature. If i recall well it was a girl named Jessica that had this so whoever she is (and in case she is reading this) thank you... a bit late for that but better late than ever right? About the book now...yes it was about time for that to happen, here we go... What seemed to have made it look unique was that it was dealing with an original subject, bipolar disorder and even more fascinating it was the fact that the writer herself suffers from that syndrome and should know so much better how hard it is in some moments to be dealt with not only from the one that is having it but also from his family members, friends, beloved ones etc... Unfortunately it wasnt so much as I expected it to be, didn't go so much deep in analyzing not only Annabelle's brother that had it in the book but even Annabelle herself though it looked like it would be much more detailed from the first chapter when she was talking about it to a therapist. The novel is quite simple, mostly it is about a girl that has worries if the relationship with her boyfriend is going on quite well since he's not exactly the perfect guy, if she's ready to make that next step that her boyfriend is asking for though she is not ready...then having to deal with losing her boyfriend for not giving in to him, and not only that but to face the rumors he spread for her and of course to try and keep her brother out of trouble who goes mad in his attempt to make things right for his sister. Afterwards a new guy appears, quite soon, there is mutual attraction but still the main story is how everything becomes messy due to some parties that things went really out of order, the police comes in the way...drugs as well...steroids...it gets just too complicated from one moment on (and perhaps not so easy to be read by really young adults that it's mostly aimed to have as "target group" obviously) with one fact following another confusing the reader about what's really happening. I believe that it would have been much better if the person that was telling the story was the brother himself so we the readers would get a clearer view of how it feels having to deal with a situation like this... From Annabelle's point of view there are many things missing... she doesn't know when to blame her brother and when is he influence by that or not. In addition to that there should have been more reference to the parents and how hard it is for them to handle things. Moreover since the mother, who is a writer, is also bipolar but not so many things mentioned about her... how she finds her way out how she managed not to let this issue bother her so much. There is also the father, that his role in the story is even minor, doesn't look that much of an ideal father to deal with that kind of family… it’s easier for him to make things worse than helping the situation acting in that way that he does… I am sorry that I don’t recall many of the names anymore so I am referring to most of the characters as Annabelle’s brother mother father ex etc… I will try to be more detailed in the future when writing a new review and don’t let so much time pass after having finished reading the book. I tried to check other reviews here to get an idea of the names but none seemed to have written so many stuff in order to “help” me hehe but it’s ok... So…conclusion… despite the negative facts written above this book had some moments that really urged me to keep on reading it (that and of course the “deadline” of two weeks that was passing which would automatically removed the book out of my kindle… ) but for completely different reasons that I initially had in mind… Perhaps if I was looking for a young adult book with a bit of romance and mystery inside I would even put one more star to it…so three stars it is and I am looking forward to reading more reviews about it and see how others feel after reading it cause the current ones are quite small and I can’t have a complete idea... so those of you who read both my review and the book write one yourself as well ok? Thanks in advance :)

This is an excellently and powerfully written story of a brotherhood of service and honor that I have no real world connection to, but now feel connected to as an American through the words of Donovan Campbell. Sometimes the technical jargon and the description of the fighting makes it really confusing, but I think that is precisely the point. War isn't straightforward, or easy to understand or follow. It is messy. Perhaps because it so vividly illustrates that there are few, if any, good choices in war (only bad and worse), for many it will be a powerful testament against war ---- though not against our warriors, who come through as human yet heroic. Truer testimony about love for your neighbor has never been written: Love "meant patience when explaining something for the fifth time to a nineteen-year-old who just didn't get it. It meant kindness when dealing with a Marine who had made an honest mistake while trying his hardest; mercy when deciding the appropriate punishment. It meant dispensing justice and then forgetting that it had been dispensed, punishing wrong and then wiping the slate clean. Love was joy at the growth of my men, even when it diminished my own authority. It was giving the credit for our successes to the team while assuming all the responsibiltiy for our failures on myself. It was constantly teaching my men, sharing everything with them until I had nothing left to give, with the expectation adn the hope that they would become greater than me. It was making myself less so that they might become more. Love accepted the Marines for exactly who they were and never believed that it was all they ever would be. Love demanded more, demanded their best, every single day; it cut through all rationalizations and excuses. It constantly celebrated the good in my men and refused to condone the natural selfishness that dwelt within us all. Love told the honest truth when lying would have been much easier or would have made me look much better; it admitted to the men that sometimes I had no answers. It confessed my mistakes and asked for forgiveness when I had wronged, and it moved past those mistakes when forgiveness had been granted. Love hoped that things would better someday, maybe in this life or maybe in the next, but it didn't deny the reality of the pain and suffering that surrounded us day in and ay out; it didn't dishonestly rationalize them or explain them away. Love didn't try to make sense of the senseless; it simply offered a light to run to. But, like now, that light grew dim sometimes. So, sometimes, love meant just getting out of bed in the morning when everything inside screamed to rest, just for one day. Sometimes it meant simply putting one foot in front of the other on patrol. And sometimes it emant continuing the mission when you didn't see any progress, meant protecting the defenseless, refraining from pulling the trigger, putting yourself at great reisk, doing what you knew to be right even though you didn't really want to. So that was how we loved those who hated us; blessed those who persecuted us; daily laid down our lives for our neighbors. No matter what we felt, we tried to demonstrate love through our daily actions. Now I understand more about what it means to truly love, and what it means to love your neighbor -- how you can do it even when your neighbor literally tries to kill you."

Sisterhood goes on

I know this is a classic book, so that's why I read it, but I just did not like it that much. I also was not a fan of animal farm, so I don't think I like Orwell's writing in general, but I was just generally bored when reading this book. The writing felt redundant and the lengthy philosophical discussions just did not appeal to me. I feel like Brave New World was the best of the "society gone wrong" genre of the 20th century, but it may be because that story is more applicable to our lives.
