Anthony J anthonyjfoti — Heartwrenching poetic writing from the viewpoint of a widower in Tel Aviv. Amazing even in translation.

Louise Tunne luizezuksi0fc1 — just. can't. get through marquez.

Ernesto Borges ernestoborges — I could not put this book down. Buy it..you will not be dissapointed. Isabel Gillies starts by saying she is not a writer, but writes good emails. The story unfolds as if told to a confidant, and there are plenty of twists and turns that keep the story interesting. As a once divoriced mother of 2 small boys, I could relate completely to her fear and heartbreak, but also her steely will to continue on in life cheerfully and hopefully. This is a great read for anyone who is going thru or has gone thru divorice after marriage to a selfish, faithless man. If any woman out there is "the other" woman, here is an outline of the heartbreak you are causing not just the wife, but the children. The description of the college was interesting, but not to me any way important to the real story.

Chelsea Damraksa _helsea_amraksa — This book was very funny! Its moral is taught me a lot.

Andrej đivuljskij djivuljskij — I thought this book was amazing! You couldn't help but love the characters...well and hate a few too of course! The story was so gripping and just when you thouhgt it was going to slow down...nope...it just keeps going! A serious must read!!

Nathalie Nern flipacoin — I would have liked to have given this book 3.5 stars. I can't say that I really really liked it, but it did cause me to have several discussions and really think about certain things. I personally did not care for the mother at all and had little sympathy for her. You cannot sue your best friend for something that could not have been controlled, nor for something that you would not have aborted if you had known.

Kei Tat cktatt — I was going to write the review after I finished the movie last night , but I was interrupted by a science final (my son’s) and didn't get to finish it :( BUT I did finish the book :) And it was great! It had a lot of action and adventure in it. The book is about 15 year old John Smith - one of the 9 kids who escaped from the planet Lorien John Smith (who started out as Daniel) has been on the run since he was 4 years old. The Mogadorians invaded his planet and wiped everything out. Including the Trees, the Grass, the Water - NOTHING lives on L anymore. But 9 children and their Cepan (guardians) were fortunate enough to get off the planet before everything was killed. These 9 children are responsible for keeping their race alive. What's special about these 9 children? They have Legacies - Special "gifts" that they inherent from their parents. And they Cepan's are in charge to make sure they are safe from the Mogadorians and teach them how to use their "Gifts" when they come to them. The Mogadorians - followed these Children to the planet Earth, where they are separated and trying to blend in - The Mogadorians are trying to kill them off one by one. But there is a special spell that was put on the children so they are all connected. The M can only kill the Lorien children in a specific order - or else they can't be killed at all. The book starts off as the first 3 Children die - Daniel (John) gets a burning mark on his leg every time one dies - and he knows he is next.. he is... "Number four" It's time to move again - Henri (his Cepan ) is there to protect him, and to make sure he has everything he needs -new ID, new Name , new Home, New everything - and everything else they left behind is burned away. They move to Paradise Ohio - where he becomes John Smith. John is tired of being on the run, tired of blending in, not playing sports, not making friends, not having a life a typical teenager should have - Once in Paradise, he starts school, and people start to notice him.. He meets a girl .. makes a friend, and he almost gets into a fight - the first of his Legacies (Gifts) come to him, and it's something everyone would notice if he hadn't run off – he defiantly made a first impression at school The book has a lot of ups and downs - I cry easily when I read - and this book was no different (not a bad thing) It left a lot up to your imagination - the description of the characters were great (and the movie seemed to do a good job getting it to look scary, but not TOO scary :) Great book - looking forward to finishing up the movie tonight :) They Changed a lot of the book for the movie - but even my husband said it was better then he thought it would be :)

Carlota Alcayde ptin — What can I say? I love novels that involve persecution and suffering.

Marco A islasespinosa — On the fence about this one. Good illustrations, good rhyme, meh.

Wagner Avlis wagneravlis — This is one of the BEST books I've ever read in my life. Multiple powerful themes (i.e. nationalist awakening, national identity, colonialism, etc.) beautifully intertwined and conveyed to the reader at a very personal level through the life of the protagonist. Plot was engaging, as was the writing style (or translation). Everything I would want in a book.
