Milena’Ya Mektuplar - Franz Kafka ücretsiz kitap indir

Laura Minaker lulimina3399 — "The Wise Man's Fear" is a great sequel to a great first novel. Rothfuss' simple prose allow the reader to feel very close to the narrative. The plot is engaging and events are often unexpected (the meeting of Ferulian, the venture into Ademre, and the murder of the Ruh-imposters, to name a few). And, honestly, it's just a fun book to read. However, there were some problems with the book that bugged me as I neared the end. One problem that Rothfuss seems to have is the development of convincing female characters. The female characters either seem like caricatures or are indistinguishable from each other. Denna and Auri, the female characters to whom Kvothe is closest, both have the same flaw; they're flighty. Though Auri has more distinguishing traits (like being crazy), Denna's stops there. Her dialogue and characterization is often indistinguishable from Kvothe when they are interacting. In this book, we get to see a bit more about Denna's past, which is interesting, but this peek behind the curtains is short lived. It's easier to differentiate between Fela and Mola in this novel, but they fall into the same problem of bland dialogue and not much in the way of interesting character traits. I have a soft spot for Devi, but her character can fall into similar problems. These problems exist with other characters. Sim and Wil are virtually the same person, for instance. But they seem especially present in women. Kvothe also has some interesting sexual development, where he goes from a clumsy, innocent virgin to a sexual deviant within the space of a few months. In some ways it's believable, due to his encounter with Ferulian. In others, I feel as though Rothfuss just wanted Kvothe to become sexually confident, without doing any of the awkward in between bits. Women throwing themselves at Kvothe also makes him and them a bit less interesting. Struggle is usually more engaging for a reader and more believable. That said, I think Rothfuss does a fantastic job with Kvothe's magical development. His struggle to discover and keep the name of the wind is interesting. His development of the bloodless and his success with sympathy, while still believable, allow him a certain distinction among his peers. I've heard complaints of Kvothe being a Mary Sue, but there is something about his voice in the first person that makes him an interesting narrator. Kvothe is a fun character to follow (although he returns to blandness in the third person bits). All in all, I would definitely recommend this book. Although there are some problems, they are far outshone by the prose, the storytelling, and the character of Kvothe.

Zaïd J-s zaidjudas — I actually listened to this on audio--but I'll count it. It was an okay book. Don't remember loving or not loving it.

Imaxions Studio imaxions — 'The Shack' was recommended to me by my mother who could not say enough good things about it. I had to call her and tell her what I thought of the book before posting this review so she didn't find out via review that I... just didn't feel the same way about it. I'm not saying I didn't enjoy the book to a certain degree; it definitely wasn't the worst novel I've ever read. Maybe it was the way the story was presented or the topic isn’t something I felt too close to, but to me it felt as though somebody came to my door and was trying to convince me that this is the way -it- is. I found it subtly preachy in the sense that this was what the author may think about religion, God, and our relationship with him, but it isn’t a topic that can readily be understood; something people of faith just need to believe in instead of understand. Of course, this novel wasn’t saying “This is the way it is” as it is a work of fiction, but the author’s feelings towards God and religion were very clear. Because I’m more sceptical and would not identify myself as a religion person, this story was lost on me sort of like a dream sequence that fades and is forgotten. I’ve heard people’s unrelenting beliefs before and this was just one more of them. Although I really didn’t connect with this novel, I do feel that an important message was presented that makes people think, and that could be the sole purpose of the novel itself. I just found it hard to get into a novel were the character dines with God, Jesus, and Sarayu as if it were the most natural thing in the world; where he walks on water with Jesus. I found myself wondering where everything was going, waiting for something to happen that strikes me. I just didn’t really find it and the ending, I feel, was weak compared to the weight of the message the rest of the novel describes. Sorry, Mom. :(

Darren Darren threemonkeyc91f — my favorite short story in this collection has to be the first one, "A Child's Book of Sickness and Death," by Chris Adrian. Skip "Hadrian's Wall." So far, I'm at Lawrence Weschler's essay on a thumb sculpture. So, I guess I'm halfway through. The letters section in this one is really good, too.

006 Mba daisukekawahara — This is totally an "R" rated book, so I can't recommend it. It is haunting and well written, but would be nice if you could get an edited version. The content is chilling.

Yasar Karacalar arcagr — An amazingly smart and witty book about presidential assassinations written by a woman who's love of placards rivals my own. Sarah Vowell is unabashedly in love with history and its many quirks, and it shows in her writing; granted, I love reading books on history in any way shape or form, but it can't be denied that Vowell does a fantastic job at making history both entertaining and approachable... Not to mention accurate. -C

Inaeuguku Maisuciime tosonafemot — This book was sad. I thought it was so sad for Rose that she lost her lover. But it was a good book and it was very entertaining. But I didn't liked that the writer replayed everyting what happened.
