LISTONE 1 DI 4 LIBRI 2011 RECE QUI: http://www.libriecaffelatte.com/2011/... CONCLUSIONI: Per dirla in breve MI HA ENTUSIASMATA!^^ Non sarà un libro di elevata letteratura, sono sarà perfetto (ci sono alcuni errori di narrativa, è vero) però non lo lasci finchè non è finito! La trama è avvincente. C'è moltissima azione, non mi sono MAI ANNOIATA! Il videogioco un po' l'ho fatto, non ho potuto finirlo (ma chissà forse un giorno ci riuscirò). Quindi i personaggi già li conoscevo. E' stato anche piacevole ritrovarli su carta. Un avviso alle ragazze: Ezio rischia di farvi innamorare ;) Comprerò il secondo "Assassin's Creed Fratellanza" PROMOSSO

I usually have no problem writing book reviews. I only review the books I love, and usually the words come pretty quickly. This review didn't, and I think it's because there were so many things I loved about this book. I love when a novel surprises me, and Virtuosity did just that. I had a feeling what I was getting with this novel: a light romance, a young musician pushed to the brink, and a sweeping conclusion. I did get all that, but this novel wasn't predictable. The ending took me by surprise, and I love it when you can't quite peg the intentions of the romantic interest. Jeremy does seem like kind of a douchebag when we meet him, but as he and Carmen get to know each other, he begins to show his hand, and without giving away too much, I'll say that his motivations surprised me. Also surprising was Carmen's mother. She's a stage mother, but also a retired performer, who will do anything to make sure Carmen succeeds, despite what it might be doing to her daughter. You won't be able to stop reading this book, so I suggest picking it up on a day where you don't have anything else to do.

If half-stars were allowed for ratings, this one would be 2.5 for me. Isn't this book cover gorgeous? The Hundred Foot Journey by Richard Morais is the story of a young Indian boy whose family emigrates first to England, then to France, after the matriarch dies in a riot in Mumbai. The boy has a knack in the kitchen and in fact grows up to be the first foreign-born chef in France to earn 3 Michelin stars. I wanted to love it--the very promising blurbs and the starred reviews, not to mention the subject matter, made me think I would love it--but I did not. There is some very good food writing and some of the story I enjoyed, but it lacked that figurative pinch of salt to bring out the rich flavors that I was hoping for. The narrator also tends to hold the reader at the same distance that he holds everybody else in his life. Still, if you're a foodie or at all involved in the food industry, it's worth a look. Incidentally, it's the third book I've read this year that qualifies for the South Asian Challenge hosted by S. Krishna's Books, and that was one of the driving forces behind my finishing it.

Ok, about Skip Beat. I must say that I truly enjoy this particular manga. The heroin, at the beginning, is every run of the mill shojo character. However, after she realizes that the one she loves does not love her, and in fact has been purposely using her for his own gain, she shows her darker side that is both scary and comedic. She vows her revenge on him in the only way that she can hurt him, to be a bigger star in show biz. Through out her trails she shows unbelievable feats of physical strength in a comedic way and her devil “helpers” often come out in her anger. Also she does not break into showbiz right away, which is a reality relief for shojo manga. I know that I find it slightly laughable that when ever a girl wants to break into showbiz in a manga, suddenly in the second book she’s on her way to be a star. Also when she meets her other love interest in the story she hates him. Not only that but she has sworn to never love again, so I can be happy to know that I won’t be seeing any sappy love parts in the middle of her trying to get revenge. Also because she has sworn to never love again any love that she does feel will have to take it’s time and develop. It won’t be they see each other and fall in love.

She's Got It Bad, Sarah Mayberry (B-) - This was my first Mayberry book and one that I've wanted to read given the positive reviews of it. I had some mixed feelings and despite my sense of Mayberry as a potentially strong writer, the gender politics here are troubling. The heroine, Zoe, becomes self-destructive as a teen when the hero, Liam (age 17) leaves her rather than risk tarnishing her with his bad boy reputation and dangerous "nature". She subsequently makes some bad decisions as a result of their breakup which leads to a downward spiral of promiscuity and partying. All in all I could understand the trauma of young love lost but questioned the reality of someone's life nearly destroyed as a result of a teenage breakup. Anyway, having accepted that somewhat implausible plot, I quickly found myself questioning the hero's motives as the story jumps ahead 12 years and Liam discovers Zoe living nearby working as a tattoo artist and singing as a thrash club performer. This all sounded interesting until I realized that Zoe apparently needs to be saved from her life of sin. Liam on the other hand is a custom bike shop owner but that is apparently much more respectable. Liam is rich and Zoe isn't, which seemed to translate into moral superiority for him. Zoe is brave and plucky though and uses her sexuality to maintain some sort of equity in their relationship, but that too struck a nerve and made me wish that female sexual liberation not be equated with power over a man. I have to say too that I was a little troubled by Liam's actions after he interferes in Zoe's life and gives her a job. While proclaiming repeatedly that he's her friend and just needs to help her, he continues to have sex with her (over and over), all while maintaining that he can't offer her a future and doesn't "have what she needs." I wanted to like this book more; it is sweet and touching at times. I'm willing to read another book by Mayberry but in the end felt this one has some troubling implications for women and ones that took me too much out of my enjoyment zone.

Favorite Quotes She lived for others, her heart tuned to their anguish and their needs. His blue eyes were seas where sorrow sailed. Not one day in anyone’s life is an uneventful day, no day without profound meaning, no matter how dull and boring it might seem, no matter whether you are a seamstress or a queen, a shoeshine boy, or a movie star, a renowned philosopher or a Down’s-syndrome child. Because in every day of your life, there are opportunities to perform little kindnesses for others, both by conscious acts of will and unconscious example. Each smallest act of kindness—even just words of hope when they are needed, the remembrance of a birthday, a compliment that engenders a smile—reverberates across great distances and spans of time, affecting lives unknown to the one whose generous spirit was the source of this good echo, because kindness is passed on and grows each time it’s passed, until a simple courtesy becomes an act of selfless courage years later and far away. Likewise, each small meanness, each thoughtless expression of hatred, each envious and bitter act, regardless of how petty, can inspire others, and is therefore the seed that ultimately produces evil fruit, poisoning people whom you have never met and never will. All human lives are so profoundly and intricately entwined—those dead, those living, those generations yet to come—that the fate of all is the fate of each, and the hope of humanity rests in every heart and in every pair of hands. Therefore, after every failure, we are obliged to strive again for success, and when faced with the end of one thing, we must build something new and better in the ashes, just as from pain and grief, we must weave hope, for each of us is a thread critical to the strength—to the very survival of the human tapestry. Every hour in every life contains such often-unrecognized potential to affect the world that the great days and thrilling possibilities are combined always in this momentous day. In the healing ways of women that remained mysterious to [him] even as he watched them do their work, tears were followed by reminiscences that brought a smile and soothed, and hope was always found to be the flower that bloomed from every seed of hopelessness.
NOBODY writes Batman better than Miller. You can thank this Dark Knight for saving Batman from a cheesy 60s grave.
