This book has left me all kinds of messed up. I was entranced by it from the very beginning and I just couldn't read it fast enough and I even considered playing hooky from work just so I could finish it. I didn't do that, but any free moment I had, I spent reading this book. The Raising intertwines the lives of Shelly, Perry, Mira and Craig as they try to uncover what happened the night Craig's girlfriend, Nicole, died. The story begins with Craig returning to college after being accused of murdering Nicole, but not formally charged without sufficient evidence. He can't remember the details of that night, and only feels the loss of his one true-love, the girl he thought he was going to marry. He tries to assimilate back into his college life, moving in with his friend, Perry. But it isn't that long until strange things begin happening. Mysterious phone calls, postcards and then the sightings. Sightings of Nicole, or someone who looks like Nicole, blurred in photographs and then in the flesh. Could she be alive? I don't want to reveal too much more of the story because it is one that should be discovered by the reader. The writing was exquisite without one false note. I caught myself holding my breath in anticipation time and time again. I desperately wanted to know happened the night of the accident. I often thought I had it all figured out and finally realized that I had no idea what was going on. With so many twists and turns and what ifs and what may have been, I felt like the characters in The Raising - astonished, bewildered, always seeking answers. I highly recommend this book (and that you clear your calendar so you have nothing else to do but read it).

Nghiên Cứu Lịch Vạn Niên - Tra Cứu Âm Dương Lịch Vạn Niên 121 Năm (1900-2020) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nguyễn Mạnh Linh

Between Shades of Gray is a heartbreaking tale of Lina, a teenager in 1941 Lithuania. The story begins when the Soviets are gathering up people, shoving them into train cars, and shipping them out of the country. The story is reminiscent of the Germans shipping the Jews off, but no less poignant or sad. Lina, her brother, Jonas, and her mother are separated from her father and sent in a box car to the Arctic Circle. They spend their days trying to get enough food and water to survive, trying to help others with what they can, and wondering where their father is. Lina is an artist, with great talent it appears, and she draws on whatever she can get her hands on. She prefers the emotional Munch and her drawings have more feeling than sometimes she can bear herself. I won't give away this family's story, but it is painful and intriguing. I liked Lina's character, she had guts and tried her best to keep parts of herself even though the Soviets were busy stripping everything away from her. I always take to characters who have the stones to stand up for themselves. I also liked Andrius, the boy Lina's family befriends on the train and gets help from further on in their journey. He's also strong-willed, but in a different way than Lina. But no less effective, possibly even more so. The rest of the characters were difficult to bear. They are all thrown in a horrible, impossible situation, and I know that not everyone is going to handle that well, but does everyone have to be so pathetic and/or selfish?

Bà Ngoại Tôi Biến Thành Búp Bê Nhỏ Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Yin Jian Ling - Huang Jie

This reads like a travel memoir with bits of science thrown in. fav quotes: I don't believe in such miracles, but others do, and my life is richer as a result. This twilight of half belief is, I think, not a bad space to inhabit. And so it is with happiness. When the talk of genetics and communal bonds and relative income is stripped away, happiness is a choice. Not an easy choice, not always a desirable one, but a choice nonetheless. p 184 Some places are like family. They annoy us to no end, especially during the holidays, but we keep coming back for more because we know deep in our hearts, that our destinies are intertwined. For me that place is India. I hate it. I love it. Not alternately but simultaneously. For if there is anything this seductive, exasperating country teaches us it is this: It's possible to hold two contradictory thoughts at the same time and, crucially, to do do without your head exploding. Indians do it all the time. p 275. I've spent much time pondering whether we canshould measure it. p283 There is one simple question, he said, the answer to which identifies your true home. That question is: "Where do you want to die?" p320 "So, excuse me for asking-- I'm sure you get this all the time-- but what is it?" "What is what?" "The secret-- to being you, to being Happy?" "Just keep on smiling. Even when you're sad. Keep on smiling." p 321

我选了这个,打算今晚睡前读几章,现在是凌晨两点,我已经完成了,应该告诉你一些有关它的信息。我英勇地拒绝开始续集,我今晚也买了。这本书的封面语录将斯卡尔齐与海因莱因相提并论,后者既准确又不准确:如果五十年后写这本书《星际飞船》,那将伴随五十年的政治和社会发展。对于第一部小说来说,这是一个令人难以置信的成熟故事,我真该被感动:从主题上讲,那里的复杂性和深度一定程度上告诉我,我将不得不重新阅读以从中获得更多的乐趣。他从第一段开始就拥有我(我在七十五岁生日那天做了两件事。我拜访了妻子的坟墓。然后我参军了。)这些天的开幕艺术已经减少了;太多的作者把所有该死的展览摆在那儿打了你,但是Scalzi带我们经过了几页悠闲地认识他的主人公,他的生活,他的理想等等,然后才把他丢进一个完全陌生的世界。它的效果非常好,因为它与protag所经历的旅程是相同的:他正在变成其他事物,其他事物,并且通过他的眼睛看到它并与他一起经历,这种转变更加强大。通常,对于第一人称叙事,我并不多,但对于我而言,这确实有用。散文简洁明了,但层次深厚,意义深远。在许多方面,它读起来都非常透明,其中单词本身不会妨碍它们传达的概念。我绝对可以理解为什么Scalzi赢得了'06坎贝尔奖,我很期待能吞噬他从那以后写的所有东西。 (他也是一位像素污染的高科技农民,这让我倍感友善。先生,给您额外的道具。)
