Üç Psikolojik Soru ücretsiz kitap indir

Shruti Gupta _hrutigupta792 — I'm one of those people who just can't for the life of me understand Shakespeare unless Kenneth Branagh spells it out for me. This book was excellent, largely because it speculates what Shakespeare's life might have been like given the historical context (what was going on in Britain at the time, where he was said to have come from, and the effect on his plays). The story slows down at times, but it offers some interesting insights on how Shakespeare's life might have influenced his plays.

Victor David victordcantu — Rules of Surrender 4 Stars Synopsis: Impoverished and cast out from her family, Lady Charlotte Dalrumple is forced to work as a governess. Ostensibly hired to teach Lady Ruskin’s Eastern born grandchildren in the ways of English society, Charlotte soon realizes that her real assignment is to turn their barbarian father into a true English gentleman. The only problem is that the outspoken and sensual Wynter Ruskin has every intention of turning the tables and seducing the prim and proper Charlotte. Review: Light and entertaining with some laugh out loud moments but the plot is insufficiently developed and the ending feels rushed. The embezzling subplot, for example, has potential but fizzles out, and its conclusion is predictable and contributes little to the story. Dodd is a skilled writer with a talent for characterization. Winter and Charlotte have a vibrant chemistry, and even though there are one or two questionable scenes that may put readers off, for me, they were consistent with the Eastern influence on Wynter’s character. Moreover, Charlotte’s emotional conflict with regard to Wynter and her attraction to him seem to negate the idea that he truly forces himself on her. While, Wynter is obnoxious, chauvinistic and overbearing, Charlotte succeeds in putting him in his place and ultimately teaches him the true value of women and love. The secondary characters are another strong point. From the children, who are sweet and engaging, to Charlotte’s ridiculous bully of an uncle and the bitchy Lady Howard, each plays a part in building the foundations of the story and contribute to the overall atmosphere. On a side note, the story takes place in Victorian times and there are hints at the superior colonial attitudes of the British Empire, which readers may find offensive but should be taken in context. One cannot ignore history and culture even when writing historical romances. In sum, a fun and enjoyable read and I will be continuing with the series.

Haia Hesham haiadesign8beb — ****** There. I've added an extra star because this beautifully written novel in verse just made me so immensely happy! I was lucky enough to be on an ARC distribution list for Love & Leftovers (sadly, not to keep) and I adored everything about it - the title, the cover, the characters, the setting, the little life lessons ... this is a story you'll want to read more than once!

Stephanie Sze stephsze — The Stoned Apocalypse is erotic author Marco Vassi's autobiographical account of the year and a half he spent searching through the sixties counter culture for a way of life and a state of mind that offered him more bliss and freedom than the world he came from. The book begins when he is asked the question, "Are you searching?" by a woman he works with who subsequently leads him to join a small Gurdjieff cult. But Vassi has little aptitude for the "enlightenment-through-psychological-abuse" so popular in many spiritual movements and quickly jumps ship. From there, he dabbles in Scientology and Communism before dropping out completely and moving to California, where he continues his explorations into the soul and spirit of humanity while taking copious amounts of drugs and having sex with many, many people. It took me a little while to get into this book. It's written in a straight narrative style, with little in the way of the "show, don't tell" scenes and dialogue that are required of today's writers. But once the story got going, it became fascinating to me on a number of levels. Vassi's descriptions of his spiritual explorations were of particular interest to me as his front-line experience with various early cults show that little has changed in the last 40 years. Vassi's clear-eyed descriptions of his experiences as both student and teacher have useful insights to offer anyone interested in this topic. His discussion of his stint as a teacher of relaxation classes at Berkeley's experimental university is particularly fascinating in this regard; no sooner has he signed up to teach than Vassi found himself the object of all manner of mystical projections as people interpret his stoned behavior as somehow enlightened. His honest discussion of how he worked to both guide these people while also taking advantage of them offers a sage look at elements of the guru dynamic. The book also served as an intriguing window into a world that was mostly over before I was even aware of its existence. Vassi's depictions of the drugs he took while bouncing between hippie crash pads is colorful to say the least. In the midst of expanding his mind, he also expanded his sexuality, moving through various stages of denial and experimentation before finally accepting his own bisexuality. This is not a book for those easily offended by graphic sex or certain combinations of letters. But for those interested in a colorful and gritty report written from the front-lines of the experimental sixties, this book has a lot to offer.
