I think this book is really good, just like the fiction kinds, but this is in graphic novel. I recommend people to read this story, if they like Geronimo Stilton books, try reading the graphic novels. In graphic novels, there is always a mystery. Very, very, good stories!! :) There are the same characters in the graphic novel, same as the fiction books. So it won't be too confusing if you read Geronimo Stilton's fiction, not graphic novel. I hope you like it! Because i like it and so you should too! My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars!!

Horst Evers seems to be the David Sedaris of Germany. He uses anthropomorphism to describe the feelings of everything from your struggling geriatric coffee maker who thinks that each day will be his last, to the poor lonely satellite out in space that has to connect your call over thousands of kilometers to a friend who is 10 minutes from you just so that you can say "I don't want to talk to you." Very entertaining short stories.

Even though certain chapters tend to get tedious, I felt the need to give You Must Remember This 5 stars because of its beautiful writing, its evocative scenes, and overall its authenticity. This is my favorite piece I've read by Oates so far. She manages to satirize the characters without poking fun at them and to really dig deep inside of their heads. Though I wasn't alive in the 50s, I felt like I was living in the decade--Oates captures 50s America so convincingly.
Absorbing and experimental, Lunar Park is a fusion of memoir and illusion. The best park of this is the difference is unclear. The narrator (Ellis himself) is unreliable--not necessarily because he's lying to us, but because he is so haunted that his delusions are questionable. This sort of balance provides the most gripping of horror stories, making Lunar Park a true gem. I won't be so quick to categorize this in the horror genre, though. Reviewers seem to place it in the likes of a Stephen King novel, and while there might be similarities, the style is a completely different approach. In the beginning, Ellis recollects his past, much of which is a blur of fame and drugs. He references his previous works--not because he's promoting them, but because they frame and reflect his life. Part of the novel's design is Bret Easton Ellis as a writer vs. his other identities, with the writer side wanting to create and the other side just striving to be good. The book shifts into the present, where Ellis marries the mother of his son and begins a suburban life. This new life, while ideal on the outside, is tortured with ghosts and mysteries. Local boys are missing. A toy seems to come to life. Someone keeps rearranging his furniture. He's getting blank bank statements at the same time of night that his father passed away. One challenge for any writer is to make the reader interested in extremely flawed characters, or to root for the bad guy. Bret Easton Ellis is an expert at this. He doesn't try to paint a charming reflection of himself; he lets you know that he's been selfish, irresponsible, and pretentious. Yet the character is so interesting that you want to read about him and be on his side.
Millicent annoyed me.

I know there were some interesting thoughts/points/ideas/arguments and whatnot in here, but I'm having trouble remembering any of them. I just had tremendous difficulty in paying any attention to this book. I'm certain I can't do this book justice in my review since I hardly feel as if I've read it, yet I also don't feel like I'll ever have to motivation to try again. Oh well, it is what it is. I recommend reading The Great Divorce by Lewis instead. That one was very interesting.

Pillars Of The Earth as anyone who read it knows is an ambitious epic novel. With so many books begging to be read, I veer away from 1000 page tomes unless there is a compelling reason to read such. I found that reason in two unequivically enthusiastic endorsements - one from a carpenter friend who never reads novels but read this one and pretty much demanded I read it, and another from an avid reading friend who begged me to read it. What's a guy to do? I read the book. The beauty of good epic storytelling is that it doesn't have to be high level literature; what it has to be is high level storytelling and Pillars is certainly that. Reviewing a book of this breadth and scope without mentioning any spoilers is a bit of a task, so I will keep my comments as general as possible. The best epics are often set in a world familiar/but unfamiliar to us; speculative fiction giving us worlds exotic yet somewhat like our own, historic fiction plunking us down in a world we ourselves could have lived in had we been born in an earlier era. Identification with characters is the crucial element. As we read do we see enough of ourselves in the protagonists and antagonists to be drawn in? And that is where Follett wildly succeeds in Pillars. He captures the humanity of his characters; their passions, their dreams, their hopes, their fears, their experiences that mold and shape them in a realistic way. And much like real life, character flaws do not go away, but often mutate and begat greater flaws. Character strengths likewise persevere in the midst of adversity and become even greater in the crucible of trial. Follett captures that aspect of humanity well and creates compellingly noble as well as reprehensibly loathsome characters. Epics done well are worth the investment in time and pay off richly for the reader. Pillars was certainly such a book.
