A severed hand discovered in Chinatown leads Rizzoli to a case from nearly twenty years ago. A restaurant shooting where the blame was placed with the chef who then committed suicide. But someone out there believes the chef was innocent and it's time for the secrets of the past to be uncovered. The Silent Girl is the 10th book in Tess Gerritsen's Rizzoli and Isles series. Normally I can plough through one of these books in an evening but I kept putting this one down. There seems to be a lot of redundant material in the first half of the book, some of it does tie together at the end but I didn't think the drama around Maura testifying against a cop was relevant, except to give her a bit more of a role in this book. However it did pick up in the second half and I enjoyed piecing together the clues. The tag line for this edition is "No one could hear her scream" which has nothing to do with anything. I don't think the marketing person who thought that up actually read the book or the synopsis! The title does make sense by the end though. There was a tendency for an "expert" to go on at length about a bit of evidence. I know this happens in a lot of crime books but it didn't sit right that the entire team would head across town to find out what animal a hair came from when they could have been informed over the phone. I think this contributed to the lack of pace in general. On the other hand, I did like the inclusion of the Monkey King myth, not long after I'd first encountered it in Kitty's Big Trouble. I think it's worth reading for fans of Gerritsen but I wouldn't recommend starting off here as it's not her best.

Things I learned from reading Bystander: 1. Bullying in middle school is a serious, scary, bloody business. 2. Never, under any circumstances, tell an adult (parent, teacher, principal, counselor, or school police officer) the truth about being bullied. Adults are idiots. 3. Hide the truth and lie about being bullied. 4. The best way to beat a bully is to sink to his level and beat him at his own game breaking any laws necessary in the process. 5. And always remember, as long as the bully leaves YOU alone - everything is good. Is it just me or is there something wrong here? Bystander is yet another YA novel that has me cheering the author for his brave realistic storytelling and mentally ordering class sets to use in class only to slap me in the face with a poorly constructed, nonsensical ending. Author James Preller actually goes a bit farther than disappointing - he edges into irresponsible. The central theme in Bystander is supposedly that bullying is wrong and bearing witness as a bystander to bullying is wrong. Chapter after chapter Preller paints a realistic, sometimes brutal portrait of how Eric, the new boy in town, deals with the challenges of fitting in at a new school while being a sometimes target and sometimes "friend" of Griffin, a seventh grade sociopath. Griffin isn't your average middle school bully; this kid is dangerous. Griffin is a modern day Eddie Haskell mixed with Ted Bundy. Good looking and charismatic, he purposely works to convince adults that he is harmless and trustworthy by carrying groceries for the elderly on Saturdays at the grocery store (for the tips) and showing real interest and concern for the school lunch supervisor (who is oddly "loaded"). Griffin also orchestrates a severe attack on Eric at the local pet cemetery, the most graphic, realistic beating I've ever read in a YA novel, never getting his own hands dirty preferring to get his cronies to deliver the blows while enjoying from the sidelines and maintaining his own "innocence." Adding to Griffin's bully resume is his PINS officer (presumably a juvenile probation/social worker) and his collection of trophies from his crimes and bullying episodes! Three quarters of Bystander had me completely hooked. I hoped to have a great novel to recommend to my seventh grade students, a novel with genuine characters dealing with bullying in a way that students could use as a blueprint for handling their own issues. Unfortunately, Eric's bizarre solution to defeating Griffin is to beat him at his own game. He breaks into Griffin's house while his abusive father is home, steals back $27 and a burned CD that Griffin had stolen from him and nearly gets caught by Griffin's dad leaving evidence behind proving that he was there. Eric does exactly what we as teachers and parents hope bullied kids never do: he plays the bully's game. He never tells adults the real truth about being bullied or being a bystander. He breaks the law. He involves a friend in his crime. He keeps all of Griffin's dangerous secrets leaving him free to move on to his next victims. Griffin never gets punished for the horrible things he does. In fact, he just finds a new group of "friends" and will, of course, continue his bullying behaviors. But, that is fine with Eric, as long has he is no longer in Griffin's sights, Eric will just concentrate on the basketball team and his new girlfriend. Griffin is clearly a villain; however, the most disturbing character in Bystander might be Eric, our hero. Young adult readers will understand that Griffin is a bad guy, but I'm not sure that they will understand that Eric's choices are irresponsible and dangerous. I fear that Bystander may contribute to the bullying cycle of secrecy instead of helping to prevent it by convincing kids that they can tell trusted adults when they are victims or bystanders and need not resort to vigilantism. I will not be recommending this novel to my students.

Đại Tướng, Tổng Tư Lệnh Võ Nguyên Giáp - Vị Tướng Của Hòa Bình Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Take an ancient curse, a girl with secret powers who wants to know more about her mother’s death (suicide) and who her father was, add a boy with secrets of his own, other children who are not what they seem, gods and goddesses, and you have the recipe for a story that will keep you awake until the wee hours of the morning. In Author Kelly Keaton’s debut novel, DARKNESS BECOMES HER, Ari Selkirk was given to the state of Louisiana after her mother’s suicide when Ari was four years old. Ari grew up in foster care, and now seventeen, she sets out to discover the truth about her heritage and why her mother left her only one message: Run. To unravel the puzzles of her life, Ari returns to the place of her birth, New 2, formally New Orleans before the hurricanes devastated the city. Is she ready, however, to face the truth about who she really is? Once she starts her quest there is no turning back, no matter the dangers she and her new found friends, who have their own troubles, encounter. The characters in DARKNESS BECOMES HER, each with his or her on special abilities, are fascinating. The author keeps the plot moving with unexpected twists and turns, along with descriptions of the characters in their various forms that place the reader in the story, as if witnessing the events as they occur. If you enjoy lots of action, witches, vampires, and other unusual creatures, you’ll find them here. I would not recommend this book for young teens, however, because of the language. To me, cursing does not add to the story. It actually distracts me. Otherwise, a good read. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series. ARC courtesy of Simon & Schuster and GalleyGrab
