Anai Cruz anaicruz94e09b — My favorite line: "All I need's an audience. I'm an exhibitionist. 'I'm the goddamn Governor's son,' I said. I was knocking myself out. Tap-dancing all over the place. "He doesn't want me to be a tap dancer. He wants me to go to Oxford. But it's in my goddam blood, tap-dancing."

Murat Böcü murat96cd82 — Sarah Smith’s Chasing Shakespeares was a fun read; I read it all in one day (when I should have been working/sleeping). It was described on the back as “A first-rate thriller…” and it was that, but my favorite parts were the parts that took place in London and Stratford, because they described places I have been and want very badly to go back to. Joe Roper is a grad student working with an archival collection of Elizabethan documents at Northeastern University in Massachusetts. Joe has wanted to write a biography of Shakespeare since he was 9 years old, so going through this collection is supposed to be a dream come true - except that all of the materials Joe is looking at in the collection are fakes. When Joe comes across a letter that just might be genuine, he gets excited, until he reads it closely and sees that it may prove that William Shakespeare of Stratford did not write the plays attributed to him. On to the scene bursts Posy Gould, who wants a piece of the archival action, too. Posy is a Harvard grad student looking for a thesis topic and something to make her famous in her own right, instead of always being identified with her rich, Hollywood-producer father. Posy suggests that the two go to London and see an expert to determine if the letter is a fake or not and to do some reserach on Shakespeare and the authorship controversy. It’s the chance of a lifetime, so Joe agrees. The rest of the book takes place in England with Joe and Posy looking to solve the literary mystery. I won’t say anything more; I don’t want to give anything away! And while I greatly enjoyed the mystery part of the book, my most favorite parts were the descriptions of London and of Stratford. As a first-time visitor to London, Joe is enthralled with everything, and he totally reminds me of how I felt when I went to England in 2004. Indeed, reading the book made me want to go back to England more badly than I have done for awhile. I can’t think of better praise than that!

Luthfi Satya _uthfi_atya_egara — Amazing, beautiful and haunting. Not to mention disturbing. Makes me feel like I need to keep a vigil around my son at all times so he doesn't get snatched.

Alessia Pastorello _lessia_astorello — This is an extremely brutal book made up mainly from tales from P.O.W. camps in the Philippines. The story itself is quite compelling and anyone interested in learning more about WWII and the triumph of the human spirit should read this.

João Sampaio joaosampaiop — One of the kind of books that you don't want to end. Hillenbrand is a gifted storyteller without being overly flowery. And this is a highly compelling, inspiring story.

Haris Amran greyhole — It should be in my "started reading it and put it down" shelf, but that is reserved for books I might try and read again. I don't know that I'll do that with this one. No, I know I won't try to read this book again. Hate hate hated what little I read of it. Which was actually a lot.
