Definitely liked it but didn't love it. Can anyone tell me why the brother is named "Chapter 11"? I found that a little annoying.

Learn to recognize when other people are trying to reel you in, and learn how to persuade others -- for good, of course. Lots of interesting studies, like Tipping Point, but more content packed and credible.

There is something fascinating about any minority ethnic group and, therefore, a great interest in novels which centered on them. For curious readers, it's easy to feel how interesting it would be to find out how the Ukrainian British differ from their Anglo-Saxon neighbors. Entered Marina Lewycka's A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian, an engaging tale about a dysfunctional Ukrainian family set in Peterborough in the early 1990s — a suitably utilitarian setting for a work whose range of reference includes the horrors of Soviet labor camps, growing up in “austerity” Britain, and the labyrinthine workings of the immigration system. Regrettably, however, this novel will not leave the reader any the wiser about the Ukrainian community in England. What we are offered is the banal tale of a Ukrainian woman who enters the UK on a tourist visa and who is prepared to go to any lengths to remain in the country, but somehow chose a “wrong” man to help her achieve her English dreams.

A photographic collection with commentary from acclaimed vangaurd quilt artist, Kaffe Fassett. Fabrics to die for, patterns to drool over. Though I've heard Kaffe can be a prick in workshops and seminars, as reflected in some of his commentary, I'd still donate a kidney to this quilter-ly man any time. I now have more quilts added to my "to do" list.

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Nancy Jo Sales

Unwind offers an extremely uncomfortable version of the future. In the aftermath of a war between Pro-Choice and Pro-Life armies, an unsettling compromise is offered. Although abortions are outlawed, parents can elect to 'unwind' their children once they reach thirteen. The surgical process harvests every part of the child - both externally and internally - and grafts the parts onto needy recipients. The faulty theory is that the child is never actually killed, but lives on in the bodies of others. By all rights, Unwind should have easily fallen into one of two camps: strikingly brilliant or hopelessly pedantic. However, it achieves the unimaginable by being average. Deeply average. This is at once both a frustration and a bit of a relief. The arch of Shusterman's story is compulsively readable, and the characters, though one-dimensional, are likable enough. They are all embedded in a bleak society that alternately cherishes and despises the Unwound. Steeped in so much gray matter, it's difficult for the characters to rise above the source material. To his credit, Shusterman does not capsize toward either side of the Choice/Life debate, although his writing does occasionally stumble into preachy undertones. Perhaps the most successful element of Unwind is the depth in which Shusterman imbues the future. Clandestine societies exist to help the Unwound (yay, Underground Railroad!) and domestic terrorists known as Clappers throw the world into chaos and add an unexpected edge to the book, specifically in the final pages. Because his vision of the future is so fleshed out, the terrifying believability of the book becomes its strongest asset. Unfortunately, Shusterman spends an inordinate amount of time on side stories told from multiple first-person perspectives. This probably would have worked better had it not been written in present tense, a tactic that was surely employed to deliver a sense of immediacy to the proceedings. The opposite occurs, however, crippling the narrative, especially in poorly edited passages with several verb tense shifts. Additionally, the dialog often aspires to capture teenage angst and weariness, but instead sounds desperate and tired, most notably in its over use of exclamation points... even in the most banal of lines. Unwind really picks up speed in its horrifying fourth act, which contains a chapter that walks the reader through a real-time unwinding. It's incredibly effective in its stomach-churning descriptions, and the fear of the unwound character is eerily palpable and visceral. This portion alone makes the book a worthy read, and, in a best-case scenario, would inspire great moral debate and conversation between teenagers and adults.
