Sắc Màu Tình Yêu - Tập 1 Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

This biography of his early childhood alternately broke my heart and gave it wings. One of the best books I've EVER read. Perhaps not because of his writing ability but his style. So many barriers at a young age, so much sadness and tragedy. BUT written with a wry humor and still hopeful wit morphing the sadness into more easily digestible story. I had to read "Tuesdays With Morrey" to find balance.

Điều Trị Bệnh Tận Gốc Năng Lực Của Tâm Bi Mẫn Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

VERY cool book. It has definitely made me more conscious about what I buy and what I eat. I loved reading about their garden and picking cherries since I grew up every year doing the same thing. If only I weren't now living in a condo... (but hey, I do grow herbs on the balcony!) I think Barbara does a great job of explaining the implications, facts, and figures behind food cost (who would ever think most of what you're paying for at the grocery store is petroleum??). And even more importantly, she offers suggestions of little ways to change your lifestyle that anyone could appreciate. For example; let's say you live in North Carolina, and you're trying to buy tomatoes from the grocery store... don't pick the ones from California when you have the option to pick the one from Greensboro. Simple!

Đừng Vì Cô Đơn Mà Yêu Một Ai Đó Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Văn học trẻ

A demure, self-effacing grade-school librarian with few expectations marries a difficult, even dangerous man who introduces her to a much larger world, but at the cost of her peace of mind. But reader -- she loves him! This is supposed to be a novel about a thinly disguised Laura Bush, but I think it's actually a re-make of Jane Eyre. Nevertheless, Curtis Sittenfeld has written a soulful and intriguing and very nearly plausible take on the former first marriage that has a subtle but satisfying ending. The only real flaw in this book is her portrayal of Madison, Wisconsin in the 1970s, which she describes as a town with "only one fancy restaurant" that serves a "five dollar shrimp cocktail." She must have been thinking of Ripon.

I thought that this book was really good. It was a very dark novel and thanks to this novel I've come to realize that I really likme dark novels. The reason why I didn't give it five stars was that it didn't make me cry and it didn't make me desperate to read the next book and find out what happends next. I will definently read the next book in the trilogy.

Dạy Con Làm Giàu (Tập 8) - Để Có Những Đồng Tiền Tích Cực (Tái Bản 2016) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

Messud's ability to craft compelling, full characters is the treat in reading this book. The styles and habits of each character and their ties to each other ring true enough to effectively engage the reader's full attention and sympathy. Unfortunately, becoming so attached to these richly flawed New Yorkers sets one up for frustration as the prose becomes increasingly long-winded. Messud really abuses dashes in the last several chapters, as if taking longer and deeper breathes as the story, which began in early 2001, creeps towards the inevitable Trade Center attack. At once, the threads weaving the plot together go slack and the book ends with a whimper. I resent 9-11 being used, as it so often is these days, as an excuse for leaving the reader without a satisfying resolution or, at least conclusion. It belittles the non-fiction books about the real life survivors. Worse than deus ex machina, it's as though the storyteller is suddenly seized with post traumatic stress and cannot bear to tell you anymore. Then again, perhaps it speaks to Messud's great skill at rendering her characters so mesmerizingly well that the reader is left pining for more. Still... the dashes. Those GD dashes and that lazy ending - I suppose I'll read her other books now to investigate further.

By Far the best C.S. Lewis book ever written. I tell everyone I know to read this book. This book, more than any others, shows the human struggle and complexity belief in an unseen God provides. I love the way Lewis weaves together the small signs given throughout the story to provide just enough room to doubt. Unlike his other books, Till We Have Faces is not obvious and the reader finds themselves evaluating their own inner voices when things turn out to not be what they seem.

It's fascinating to see The New Yorker's thousands of cartoons laid out by decade. I don't know if I'm seeing how America's humor has evolved or how the humor of the editors of The New Yorker has evolved, but either way, it's interesting. The best decades, in my opinion, are the 1940s-70s, when the humor was broader, less esoteric (lesoteric?), and not typically made up of pithy commentary on wine or boardroom politicking. Still, there are wonderful cartoons coming out of every era of The New Yorker's being.

"The War of the Worlds" wasn't the only masterpiece that H.G. Wells wrote with the words "The War" in the title. "The War in the Air," which came out 10 years later, in 1908, is surely a lesser-known title by this great author, but most certainly, in my humble opinion, a masterpiece nonetheless. In this prophetic book, Wells not only predicts World War I--which wouldn't start for another six years--but also prophesies how the advent of navigable balloons and heavier-than-air flying craft would make that war inevitable. Mind you, this book was written in 1907, only four years after the Wright Brothers' historic flights at Kitty Hawk, and two years BEFORE their airplane design was sold to the U.S. Army for military purposes. In "The War in the Air," Wells also foresees air battles, as well as engagements between naval and aerial armadas. His gift of peering into the future is at times uncanny. We see this worldwide war through the eyes of Bert Smallways, a not terribly bright Cockney Everyman who is accidentally whisked away in a balloon and lands in Germany right on the eve of that country's departure for war. Bert is brought on board one of the German airships, and so personally witnesses a titanic battle in the North Atlantic; the Battle of New York (in which the length of Broadway is destroyed and many buildings near downtown City Hall Park are levelled, looooong before 9/11); and the huge fight between the German and Asiatic forces over Niagara Falls. And these are just the start of Smallways' adventures. Wells throws quite a bit into this wonderful tale, and the detail, pace and characterizations are all marvelous. But this isn't just an entertaining piece of futuristic fiction; it's a highly moral one as well. The author, in several beautifully written passages, tells us of the terrible waste of war, and the horrors that it always entails. In this aspect, it would seem to be a more important work of fiction than even "The War of the Worlds." While that earlier work might be more seminal, this latter tale certainly raises more pressing issues. And those issues are just as worrisome today as they were nearly a century ago. In his preface to the 1941 edition of this book, Wells wrote: "I told you so. You damned fools..." As well he might! And it would seem that we STILL haven't learned the lessons that Wells tried to teach us so many years ago. Perhaps, at this point, I should mention that readers of this novel will be faced with many geographical, historical and vocabulary/slang terms that they may not be familiar with. If those readers are like me, they will take the time to research all those obscure terms; it will make for a richer reading experience, as always. I said before that this novel is a masterpiece, and yet, at the same time, it is not perfect. Wells does make some small booboos in prediction, for example. Zeppelins were not more important than airplanes in war; civilization did not collapse after World War I. He tells us that the distance from Union Square to City Hall Park is under a mile, whereas any New Yorker could tell you that it's more like two. Wells mentions that the Biddle Stairs (which were built in 1827, led from Goat Island to the base of Niagara Falls, and were demolished in 1927) were made of wood, while in fact they were made of metal and encased in a wooden shaft. But these are quibbles, and in no way detract from the quality of the work. Indeed, this is a novel that should be mandatory reading for all politicians, not to mention all thinking adults.
