Heyraud Saodato _aodatoh — Brian Froud'un çalışmasına dayanan / esinlenen Wood Wife yavaş başladı. İlk bölümü okumaya devam etmek benim adıma çaba harcadı, ama çaba kesinlikle işe yaradı. Arizona çölünün şiiri, mitolojisi ve görüntüleri ile zengin olan Wood Wife, okuyucuya hem cinayet gizemi hem de daha mistik, kahramanın yolculuk çeşitliliğinin sırlarını sunar. Sonuçta, Wood Wife iyi bir kitap ve kesinlikle benim zaman ayırmaya değer.

Matthew Gallagher mwg — I loved this simple yet complex memoir by the daughter of a Russian immigrant father and Orthodox mother, with their two children, moved to the backwaters of Tennessee to open a clothing store in 1920. Set during in a location and time dominated by the KKK, this compelling story is about adapting, accepting and finding happiness in the ordinary. It's a joy to read.

Jiawenge Jia 7napai — This overlooked first novel is very good, and I'm not the only one who thinks so. Gayle Brandeis won Barbara Kingsolver's Bellwether Prize, and the back jacket carries an endorsement from Toni Morrison. Not at all bad for your first time out.[return][return]The book moves back and forth between the story of a young Korean woman forced into prostitution on an American base, and her daughter by an unknown black serviceman. The title of the novel refers to the mother’s scrapbook memorializing the countless pet birds that her daughter has inadvertently slaughtered over the years. It's never 100% clear, actually, how accidental all the killings are. The daughter, Ava Sing Lo, is extraordinarily loyal to her mother, to the point of having internalized her mother's embarrassment and distance and turned them against herself, and so the unspoken possibility exists that the killings are unconscious acts of vengeance. The story, then, involves Ava's reclaiming of herself while simultaneously establishing common ground with her mother, on mutually supportive terms, for the first time in her life. The book also offers a terrific portrait of the communities surrounding southern California's Salton Sea, which is where Ava ransoms herself in the midst of a massive die-off of shorebirds.[return][return]The language is wonderful, and the main characters are well drawn. There were a few points where the social message of the book threatened to hijack and eclipse the story, and there is one sub-plot involving a series of murders that is never adequately explained or resolved, but these are really minor criticisms, and I’d highly recommend the book. I’m especially interested in reading the author's future efforts. Her next novel is due out in early 2007, I believe. She has a website and her own blog. If she can win the marketing game and get the attention she deserves, I think she may be at the beginning of a very promising career.

Ludmila Costa _udmila_arros — I really really enjoyed this book. The characters were wonderful and I enjoy a good mystery and this one had it for sure. It was a page turner and kept you going....I finished and wanted to learn more about the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo....found out from @mklug I have to wait till July.
