I enjoyed most of the book, I did get lost and confused at times. Probably just me. I was thinking in ways its like when explores came to south america. Natives where killed and robbed of thier gold and jewels. Sacred places ruined. I saw in someone review they thought of Africa. Its amazing how same book hits different people different. Rakam is on a journey traveling and learning about different groups trying to find what his path will be. He has the gift of sight. Those who have gifts train and then go on like a vision quest. He goes to see different animals that this one village use, but as he comes to it, it is completly destroyed. Even the rocks surrounding their fire pits is gone. He sees what happened in a vision. He heads for home to warn his people and finds village after village destroyed even their sacred places. Rakam is bit by snake and he almost dies a riverdog saves him and brings him fish while he heals. After he realizes that his visions are gone but a new power has imerged. He warns his people and shows them the armor they where that their arrows cant hurt. They flee to the marsh king to let others know of these enemys that kill and destroy everything and hope by joining can stop them somehow. It is interesting story of natives having to fight for thier lands and beliefs. Different groups having their traditions. Choosing good over evil. What fight is worth dying for. I was given this ebook in exchange for honest review.

If I read this right, I should get rid of my arch-supported shoes if I want my on-and-off plantar fasciitis to get better. Now....a few days have passed, and my feet are generally hurting a bit more each day. Adhesions and plantar fasciitis are intertwined...are weak feet (from too much support) interlinked with adhesions? If I'm trying to strengthen (actually strengthening) my feet, shouldn't the adhesions stop appearing?

I loved that this book wasn't centered around Anne Frank. It was the lives of many different people who just happened to know Anne Frank and touched on how she affected them. As heartbreaking as it is to read about the holocaust, I still find it fascinating and highly enjoy reading the history of it and this book did not disappoint.
I love this series. I worked at a book store around the time that Amber Spyglass was coming out and had never really looked at the books before. I checked out the back of Spyglass and fell in love. I picked up the first two and read them in rapid succession, followed very quickly by the last book. The whole series fascinated me from start to finish. The concept of people having daemons with them...the Dust factor....other worlds....so amazing. I didn't realize until after I finished them that they were written by one of my favorite authors. I'd read Pullman's Sally Lockhart series a long time ago and adored it. Finding another series by an author I love always makes me happy.

Good book if you are interested in German film or even the time just before the rise of Classical Hollywood film. These were the German directors who were wooed to Hollywood to make films in the early years.

Read my complete review on Book Exhibitionism! My Opinion I’ve read this book more than two years ago. So why did I decide to read it again? Well, it turns out Patricia has never read any work by Holly Black. EVER. I mean, I LOVED her Spiderwick Chronicles! Valiant, Ironside, and Tithe- meh, not so much. But The Curse Workers is a series that I loved, so I decided that I needed to reread it and write a review to convince Patricia! (And okay, I still have to read the third book, and I needed a refresher.) So I am gonna be writing a back-to-back review of White Cat and Red Glove, and I loved both books. I realize that this is going to be spoilery for those who haven’t read the first book yet, so I’ll keep it to a minimum. First, plotwise- both rocked. White Cat and Red Glove are both murder mysteries, in a sense. But they are much more than that- they both have suspense, murder, action, humor, romance- and of course, cons. The pacing of the plot is pretty fast too. Cassel just discovers a problem, when another one pops up, which is more often that not life-changing. These books have more than one main storyline too! Multiple ones are woven into it, major ones, minor ones, interconnecting with each other, adding to the mystery, suspense, and intrigue! Each book has its own particular plot, but I don’t wanna go into it and spoil it, because I don’t like spoilers in reviews, so just trust me when I say they have captivating plots. And the characters? They’re pretty kickass. Cassel is… complicated. He’s bad, born into a family tangled deep with the Zacharovs, a crime family, but yet, he wants to be good. He’s sarcastic, snarky, loyal, smart, cunning. He’s the perfect mix of bad boy and bad guy. And his brothers too- Barron and Philip, are freakin’ cool older brothers. But at the same time, they’re the worst brothers one could ask for. Am I confusing you? Good, because I myself am confused. Holly Black did such a great job drawing complex characters, strengths, weaknesses, flaws and all. Lila though- okay, I have mixed feeling about her. One scene she’s being all sweet, or kick-ass, but then, she usually annoys me. Hopefully, my view on her will change soon. These books are also filled with- what else?- cons! I know, I know, crime isn’t a good thing, and so is deception, but admit it, its pretty darn cool. The cons Cassel pull off are brilliant, and I never see them coming. There are so many twists and turns, and he always has a card up his sleeve, just waiting to surprise us with a trick we never see coming. Seriously. A small part of me wishes that I was part of his family- they really do put the fun in dysfunctional... Read the rest of my review on Book Exhibitionism!

No book better expresses the paradox of modern life than Catch-22. It is still as fresh, relevant, and uproarious today as it was when first published--maybe more so. It may be a satire, but it is a deceptively realistic one. What, after all, is so sane about rushing off to war? Or so crazy about doing everything in your power to avoid it? While much of the book focuses on backward, incompetent authority figures, no one (least of all the capitalistic system that spawned them) is spared. And yet, the book leaves one with a hopeful feeling: that, with sufficient cleverness and a willingness to subvert authority, one can make one's own way in the world, relatively unperturbed.

This is how you do a novel in verse. 4.5 stars, actually. Fuse8's review pretty much sums up my thoughts as well: http://blog.schoollibraryjournal.com/...
Better than the first one!
