Carlo Moody _arlo_alinco — Bu hikayeyi yeniden dinlemeye başladım (Eylül 2012), zaten okuduğumu unuttum. Sonunda aklıma geldi. Duh! Her neyse, iyi bir okuma.

Jose Muñoz josemunoz — DIRTY GIRLS ON TOP (2008) by Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez – is an amazing novel. Yes, it is chick-lit. Yes, it is full of stereotype confirming cliques. Yes, it follows a convenient mass-marketing format (i.e. all the main characters find resolution and/or redemption) … but it is also very insightful. Take for instance the statement by one of the “Dirty Girls’” manager (Btw- “Dirty Girls” refers to the color of their skin – they are brown, and not to their sexual habits. And, “On Top” refers to their successful careers and how they finish, not to their sexual habits): “Most people are followers. You can’t take anything the public does all that seriously. You can’t let the tastes and behaviors of a time influence how you see yourself, or how you create art, or what you do.” What is the author saying? Is the author a hypocrite, the very type of person the character, a famous Latina pop singer, rails against? I find this fascinating and intriguing. Another insight I like is this from Usnavys, a 260 lb, blogging, cheating, sex fiend: “I think the only reason most people be logging their sorry asses onto the Internet is sex, m;jia.” I have to agree with that. And this from the above mentioned Mexica superstar: “I do EVERYTHING better high. All the greats were like that. … It was drink, or drugs … That was the creative fuel.” IDK, perhaps not the fuel of the creative soul, but the juice that allows The Creative to endure his or her alienation from the followers and their leaders. The novel is dedicated to women who have bulimia nervosa. Which happens to be one of the issues that are confronted by the six heroines. Other issues are: Infertility; Sexual obsession; Fame; Success; Homosexuality; Self-esteem; Neglect of children; Magical thinking; Alcoholism; Machismo; Friendship; Marriage; Infidelity; Dating; North American history; The killing of Innocents; and the Raising of Children. Wow, just the kind of human condition story that appeals to me (serious subjects, but couched in a mainstream genre). The story is told via the first person narrative of the six female principals, and a brief chapter by one male. The voice sometimes blends into one, but different perspectives are shown. There are some underlying tones, such as; White people are stupid, shallow, narcissistic, bad lovers, and eventually going down, that I can relate to; and makes me wonder … is this the “Ghost Dance” of the First Americans all over again, but from a different “Tribe” and in a different format? (One determined by “ … the tastes and the behaviors of a time …”.) Is the author, Valdes-Rodriguez, laughing all the way to the bank? Quote: “She was named one of today’s twenty-five most influential Hispanics (a word she never uses in her novel) by Time Magazine.” Five stars.

Krystof Travnicek travnicekk — This was as close to perfect a novel as I've read. Pearson's writing is beautiful, just descriptive enough, and her characters jump off the page. Her description of fan obsession is flawless. Not that I'd know anything about that. Also, I listened to this on audio, and the reader was outstanding. She did a Welsh accent beautifully, and managed to age the characters as they grew. It was a pleasure from beginning to end.
