novels really don't get much better than this...
Not your typical Forster. Some of the plot feels forced, but the racial and class tensions ring true, for the most part. Having never been to India (colonial or modern), I'm not sure that the story is wholly believable. Nonetheless, Forster's does what he does best in his stunning portrayal's of the Indian geography and its importance to the character of the nation.
Fun, especially if you like mythology.
On the lesser side of 3 1/2 stars. I liked that this was a handful of shorter stories as opposed to one long one. I liked seeing Nightwing in a variety of different situations, and seeing how he reacted differently to different types of problems. Fast and enjoyable read.
One of my favorite books...easy to lose yourself in it and just enjoy, even if it is a tearjerker at times :)

** spoiler alert ** SPOILERS: I just spent my evening being immensely annoyed at a book. This is why I avoid most HP like some STD unless it's recommended to me. Somehow this book got in my TBR pile and I bitterly regret attempting to read it. What a waste of an evening. First, let me tell you that the book's description is misleading! It makes it seem like she up and left him but the truth is, the uptight a-hole left HER and her daughters 9-10 months prior to her moving across the ocean. She then asked for a divorce only "if" he couldn't love her. So this is how they divorce. Moreover, he never attempted to get her back in any way whatsoever nor attempted to see the children much. He in fact, had moved on and was already engaged to another woman 2 years later when the heroine shows up. Of course, she's been emotionally and physically frozen all that time like a good little, no-life HP heroine. Marco is an up tight, stuck-up, rich alpha male who's practically engaged to a princess when he has a one night stand with the beautiful but gauche heroine who's been infatuated with her boss since the day she saw him. She's very much aware that he's not a single man. The night's lovemaking leads to babies, so they marry. The marriage falls apart shortly there after because he's cold and seemingly regretful of being married to her. She on the other hand is utterly slavishly in love with the unfeeling bastard who only treats her in contempt. His disrespectful and belittling remarks shreds her already low self esteem, where she just couldn't take the lack of love, or caring she needed from the man she completely adored. The book opens 2 years after the divorce, and she's returned in hope of getting her daughter closer to the absent father who's been ignoring them. Because ultimately, there wasn't anyone else who could take them in if she died to cancer. However, the hero is back with his ex, the same ex he cheated on with the heroine and he was to marry this princess just within 2 1/2 months. There were just too many things I disliked about this book. One, that poor princess! He cheated on her with the heroine, then does it again! Heroine too, where was her integrity?! It all makes it worse because the princess isn't a wicked witch. Two, I wasn't feeling much chemistry, in fact I thought the hero showed more caring towards the OW (princess), even telling her he loves her right in front of the heroine. Three, hero was a great father only when it was convenient to him. Ultimately, why I hated this book, and why I put it down to write this long ass rant fest.... He does not change his ways, nor his apparent feelings or his plans to marry this princess until he finds out about her illness. I felt like he was attempting to straighten things out with her out of PITY now that she might die on him! Ever hear of a thing called a "pity f*ck"? And of course, the heroine is mentally rambling on and on about how much she loves him and only him (even though, he's engaged to marry someone else, stupid!)... like any mindless, spineless HP heroine. I still have about 70pages left of this wreck but I think I'm going to just ditch it.
Reposting an Old Review So, what I liked about the book: its cover is beautiful and related to the story-many beautiful covers have no connection to the story these days. the story began and ended perfectly and I had no trouble getting into it. it was the right length and a very fast read for me. humor was done just right. the balance between science and the paranormal elements was good. What I did not like: the female lead seemed to be head over heels in love with the coolest guy in school-how many more times is this going to be done? the virus/infection was spreading in the school and none of the adults seemed to notice-didn't buy it. All that being said, I can't wait to try the next book in the series because the author has a really fun way of writing a story.

My favorite character on Sesame Street has always been cookie monster. I'm a serious addict. A friend reviewed this cookie cookbook and said the chapter of contents alone did it for her. I have to admit, the chapter of contents is genius. I checked this out from the library before I bought it because I haven't had the best luck with Martha's ultra precise and exotic ingredient-ed recipes--but after trying four different cookies--I was in love! I swear each cookie was absolutely perfect and delicious. The only problem with the book is that it's so beautiful you don't want to get any dough guts or spilt milk on it. Which I promptly did on the first batch, alas.

Read this book for an Irish Lit class. Thought I got it until the prof came in and explained all these mythical references I totally missed.
