Thực Hành Kỹ Xảo Với Macromedia Flash 8 Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Hương Tinh Vệ

I love this book because it offers so much - it's a buffet of essays, artistic sketches and short stories by a writer who managed to stay relevant and fresh into his late 80's. Some may be skeptical of the quality of work because the book was collected and published posthumously, but there's no need to fear that this is just another paycheck for the publisher. Most of the contents stand up with the rest of Vonnegut's work, which is to say, he paints pictures here with words of a humorous, horrible world, that is equal parts tragedy and irony. The book opens with an piece by Vonnegut's son, and it's interesting to hear from someone so close to a literary giant talk about his father's processes, troubles, and idiosynchracies as a writer, husband, and father. Of the collected tales within, the time traveling tale Great Day, and the self titled devil hunting Armageddon are probably my least favorite, with Spoils, Guns Before Butter and Happy Birthday topping my list. Perhaps the best piece, aside from the introduction is "At Clowes Hall" an adress that Voneggut would have delivered had he not passed away. The speech was delivered by his son, and probably would have made a better end to the title, (rather than the awkward Armageddon) because it channels Kurt Vonnegut's voice so well. You can practically hear his voice when reading the lines, and the final sentence would have much more weight placed at the back of the book... "and I thank you for your attention, and I'm out of here."

Of this, I've only read "The Baltimore Waltz," and it's one of the worst plays I've ever experienced. It's a satire about the AIDS epidemic. Maybe it's funnier on stage than on paper, but I don't have high hopes.

Làm Chủ Môn Toán Trong 30 Ngày - Đại Số 10 Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nhiều tác giả

On the surface this looks like the perfect book for me. It's got the reincarnation thing and the historical fiction thing. But I couldn't get into it. I read about half before I gave it up. It was, as the title suggests ... dark.

Lịch Sử Sống Động Của Đệ Nhị Thế Chiến Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

I discovered Cynthia Tyler's works after reading Finding Polaris, a Kindle release that I stumbled across. I was entertained enough and impressed enough to go back and read her other works, all of which I found enjoyable albeit for various reasons. I must say I don't understand the low ratings here (especially like three stars from someone who claimed to have read and liked it), so here is my individual reaction to Tyler's work. First, I don't read much lesbian fiction because it tends to be too badly written and too outrageously unrealistic (everyone is rich, powerful, drop dead gorgeous, etc). That's fine for those who want to celebrate shallow consumerism, adolescent-style romance, and enough fake trauma drama to make Charley Sheen blush, but it's just not my cup of tea. Contemporary writers who can hold me to a page from start to finish are people like Carolyn See, Elmore Leonard, and Robert Parker. Also by way of introducing my qualifications to judge content, I am a licensed psychologist with a PhD from UCLA as well a certified shamanic counselor who has studied with the Foundation for Shamanic Studies. Now, about Descanso. I liked Tyler's dialog. It was crisp, real, and the protagonist had an almost detective style delivery which I thought fit her personality. At the same time the character is vulnerable and goes through a reawakening and personal growth that I felt followed a very realistic trajectory. The shamanic experiences are very solid, although if someone is viewing the story as simply magic realism the blend of psychology and shamanism may possibly seem confusing from a literary point of view, but to me it worked as it actually does in real life. Aside from a solid understanding of psychology, a solid understanding of shamanism, I felt the character was developed and believable, although Republicans and fans of Fox (Faux) News may not agree or like it, but it suits the character of Chris Cameron and the tale). Finally, the novel is written in a decent manner and there was one other aspect to Tyler's writing that I love: she's funny. The books are laugh out loud funny and very entertaining. And that I imagine is a hard thing to accomplish in a novel. So for holding my attention, allowing me to escape into someone's else's world, and for keeping me turning the page, I give all the books so far five stars. Just a thought on Goodreads.com, which I also just discovered. There is such a discrepancy between the Amazon reviews for this book and the reviews I see here. Why? I wonder about the wisdom of just allowing a reader to click and rate without explaining the reason which may or may not be relevant to the information about a read that I am seeking. I just think the Amazon system is more informative......

Started this one last night, and could not put it down. I love stuff about Native American legends! The real star of the book is Maggie Mae's voice. I just loved her. She was so strong, confident, and could really handle herself! She actually tells the love interest at one point, I save myself, I don't need you to save me. (Not a verbatim quote). There is plenty of action, a nice friendship, and great storyline. I am not a huge fan of shape shifter fiction, but this one was really good. Why, oh, why did they change the cover? The cover for the arc was perfect and eye-catching, and the snake cover makes no sense! Warning: I craved Mexican food through the entire reading....
