This is the quintessential adventure story, with legendary characters. I have to say I was a bit disappointed by the ending. I expected something grand and bittersweet like the Disney movie (which is a phenomenal book adaptation by the way!) but was saddened to find that the story just fizzles out at the end. Long John Silver just fades away like any old periphery character. I will definitely read this book to my children, however.

A very simple but well done biography of Babe Ruth. It's in a format that is accessible to younger kids while having the added element of the articles to make it interesting for older kids.

Listening on audio CD when we drive somewhere; Gerritsen can be overly dramatic and repetitive but once you get involved in the story, you have to keep listening to the end. My husband says she is a "womans writer". I don't like too much soap-opera kind of description: Does he notice me? Am I too low in society for her? But Tess is a pathologist so there is a lot of blood and gore, death and dismemberment (literally) and grave robbing (bodies sold in medical schools for anatomy class). This part dates in mid-1800's when medicine was naive about bacteria and its spread and treatment - bleeding to remove disease still practiced. Oliver Wendell Holmes as a young student of medicine is included as a character and it caused me to look him up on the Net and find out he was a renown doctor who helped push medical practice into the modern age (ether, germs, sanitation). The other part of the story is in the present when a woman finds a skeleton buried in her back yard so she starts researching previous owners and so the old story develops from found letters. Lots of American history mixed with a serial killer, poverty, social class and medical practice.

was a good book about the struggle to keep a small practice going and how liability can destroy the one thing women need! the loss of freedom for women to choose their birth preference, and the struggle and impact it has one the midwife.

Science, bioethics, a family history, class and race issues - this book had it all! I found it really interesting (although I am kind of a nerd) and have been recommending it to everyone I know.

This was my first Jodi Picoult book. The concept was compelling, but I felt the ending was a cop-out. She built up a legitimate modern ethical dilemma and then failed to give a real resolution, opting for a quick emotional hit that answered none of the questions she presented throughout the story.

This new release in the Fablehaven series is another winner. Brandon Mull does a good job with writing children's fantasy. The story immediately draws you in and is a delight to read. As is typical with these kinds of books, there is the classic twist at the end of the story that is not completely predictable, but not very surprising. I would recommend this book to anyone.

An excellent collection of short stories. All of them had the same basic core: a family with one man (even with women around) who is an outcast or alone in some way. Often the family situation or the man's personal situation is going downhill fast, and the story focuses on how the protagonist deals with the situation. Do they stay and make the best of it, do they leave for something new, do they descend even further into decrepitude, do they become part of the "system" or whatever it is that's around them? The last two stories are the best in terms of bringing up the main overriding theme of the collection, with the second-last providing the quote that titles the collection: "His life, like every other life, could be graphed: an ascent that rises to a peak, pauses at a particular node, and then descends. Only the gradient changes in any particular case....We all ripen. We are all bound by the same ineluctable law; the same mathematical certainty. "...I have begun the inevitable descent, the leisurely glissade which will finally topple me at the bottom of my own graph. A man descending is propelled by inertia; the only initiative left him is whether or not he decides to enjoy the passing scene." (192-193) This collection explores a variety of descents, and Vanderhaeghe's diversity of settings and characters is excellent. The only suggestion I would make is not to read them all in one shot -- read them one at a time, puzzle them over, enjoy some of the great lines they offer. And when you're done, why not try the album of the same name by Justin Rutledge, a Canadian singer-songwriter? It was inspired by this collection (although there are no obvious links that I have found, in terms of song themes/lyrics directly mentioning the stories) and is similarly well crafted.

Ningun libro me a hecho odiarme con tanta pasion. Es facil reconecer buena literatura cuando la misma es capaz de joderte el alma.
