The one where Jocelyn the dog breeder gathers a group of friends to read and discuss Jane Austen, written mostly from a "we" POV as though the club were its own character. Oh, I enjoyed this so much. I stick mostly to genre, which is reliably enjoyable, and this is the sort of book I probably never would have looked at if it weren't for people here saying they liked it. I loved the daring way it treated time and POV. I loved the characters, even the ones I hated; some of the stories from the past made me absolutely furious, all puffed up and ready to defend the characters and punish those who did them wrong. In the end, they were like family in that I wanted them happy even when they drove me crazy.

I liked the way this book alternated between the bike trip that Win and Chris take to the west coast and the present. The plot was fast paced and the ending was satisfying. There were a number of parallels between this book and Paper Towns by John Green. This is a great read for guys, but good luck selling it with this cover--it looks like a book about the Tour de France or something. I hope the paperback gets a better design.

Honestly, I don't know how to rate this book. I read it quickly, so there was something about it that was engaging. More than anything I think I really just kept reading to find out why Clay was on the tapes. But there was a lot about this book that really just bugged me. I felt manipulated, by Hannah (and, thus, by the author? I'm not quite sure), and I really HATE feeling that way when I'm reading. It's one of my top reading pet peeves. And generally, I just didn't like Hannah. Maybe that sounds insensitive. And I can get on board with the whole "we don't realize how profoundly our actions can impact others" theme, but when the switch is flipped and Hannah isn't the "victim" anymore, she kind of glosses over the incredibly profound effect her actions (or inactions, as it were) have on others. And maybe that's just a general teenage thing, the inability to step outside one's own world, but I found that disappointing. It seemed like a good chance for Hanna to get some perspective, to stop playing the victim, and even if she made the same ultimate decision anyway, at least she'd have an awareness of her own role in the cycle of it all. And at some level, she seems to get it, to know that her own actions could be one of someone else's "Thirteen Reasons Why," but ultimately, it's still all about how no one cared about her, how no one noticed her and her feeling of invisibility. And is Hannah really trying to tell us that if all the other things hadn't happened first, she would have made different decisions? That the impact of her decisions on others isn't really her fault, it's the fault of those who hurt her previously? I really hope not. I really hope Hannah's not holding others to a different standard of accountability and responsibility than she holds herself. And maybe that's just human nature, too, to let ourselves off the hook, but I found it weak nonetheless.
Прекрасна книжка. Друг е въпросът, че ще трябва да я прочета още няколко пъти, ако искам да си извадя всички поуки :)

I don’t much care for the sprawling southern woman novel, with its structure subtle as a two-by-four, its little hoard of big secrets temptingly alluded to, its blowsy meandering plot–and prose–and its big-ticket social issue to justify the soap opera. And I have increasingly come to dislike novels that incorporate historical characters or events as more than the distant backdrop for the action. But I am endlessly gullible, and people whose opinions I admire and respect really liked this book a lot. I never learn: taste is idiosyncratic. I didn’t like it at all. Having said that. The prose style is respectable, the characters credible and not entirely two-dimensional. The author has an inexact sense of period (the danger inherent in writing about a historical period you didn’t personally experience, which some significant portion of your audience probably did, is that they will notice inaccuracies in detail–as I did in this case) but the anachronisms are not so thick on the ground as to disrupt the narrative flow. My biggest objection with respect to the mechanics was the use of third person narration for a single event in the course of a book told otherwise entirely in the first person, by three different speakers. There was no particularly persuasive justification for that departure from the narrative style of the book, and I found it irritating. I fully expect Ms. Stockett to continue on to further triumphs. But I don’t think I’ll be lured in again
Truly heartbreaking. Made me cry.

Maybe the best graphic novel I've read, not that I'm a well-versed expert. (And as I write this, I wonder if Persepolis 2 tops it...) But this is smart, touching, honest, and I'd recommend it to all you literary snobs out there.

Seanan McGuire's October Daye series is the bom-diggity-dog. Book four in the series, Late Eclipses, is an excellent addition to the series and like its predecessors leans hard toward the fantastic. I'd say at least half of the book is set in some kind of faerie land. According to McGuire's website there will be at least three more books in the series published: One Salt Sea (Sept. 2011), Ashes of Honor (2012), and The Chimes at Midnight (2013). Late Eclipses is a book that answers questions brought up in previous books, builds and ends relationships and teases you about what is to come in Toby's future. One of my favorite characters, Tybalt, makes several appearances in the story. His role in the book showcases the type of man he is: steadfast, honorable and dependable. When push came to shove, Tybalt is the type of character who will kick the door down which makes him the man I want in Toby's life. The book gives clear answers to Toby's past issues and actions. For example, her lineage is explained, Rayseline's hatred of Toby and the Queen's reaction to Toby ignoring her command. I couldn't help but to feel that Toby is a much better person than me. I would hold a grudge and be hurt by the words and actions of those surrounding me. Toby isn't that person. She grew up knowing that she wasn't a full-blood, and thus wouldn't be treated as an equal most of those around her. Her childhood prepared her to be a realist, but it didn't stop her from dreaming whether she knew that was what she was doing or not. Overall, Late Eclipses is a winner. It is a book that I will gladly add to my keeper shelves. If nothing else, you've got to read about Rayseline being a BITCH! This book is all about the blood. Blood is everything. Warning: If you haven't read the entire series, don't pick this book as a starting point. Each book picks up where the one before it ended. Scooper Speaks
