Watcharee Kramyu aeung66 — Here is my review for A town Like Alice I will arbitrarily grade different aspects of the book on a ten point Likert scale on these points 1.) Prose – how well the book was written 2.) Story –Two line summary and then How much it kept your attention, interest 3.) Character development - Did they feel like real people 4.) Ending – How did it wrap up, did it leave you wanting more etc. WILL HAVE SPOILER 5.) Message – How did the themes of the book resonate 6.) Timelessness – will this book be relevant 100 years from now 7.) Intangibles – Is there something this book does particularly interesting or well Will then add up the score for a final tally 0-9) Made me dumber for having read it 10-20) Similar to Mad Magazine in content and worth, but probably less funny 21-30) Swing and a miss – something lacking 31-40) Average book – don’t make a special trip to Barnes and Noble 41-50) Pretty good – worth a read, wouldn’t miss playing ice hockey for it 51-60) Very good – better than FaceBook 61-70) All time must read – I wish I lived with characters in their world Prose: 7 – For whatever reason, I like books written in this time period generally 20’s-50’s. Less formal and difficult to read than 19th century authors for the most part, but not feeling like it the prose has to have a modern (to us) vernacular. The Australian lingo was not forced and added to the story. Slightly more description than I like, and the town names were a bit confusing. Story: 7 Story about a remarkable British women in WWII in a part of the world we never think about being part of the war. Partially based in fact. Slow build up to the exciting part of the story which has a bit of an O’Henry flavor. Excellent flashback to the war with just the right amount of vivid detail to make the rest of the book plausible. After they get together, the story was fairly predictable, but mostly still interesting. Slow at points at this time. Overall interesting look at life in Austrailia at the time as well. Character Development: 7 – I thought the narrator was the best developed character in the book to be honest. By seeing the story through his eyes I thought we got a good look at the young through the eyes of the old without overdoing it. Paget and Harmans characters were ok. Obviously they had a relationship forged through extraordinary times, and both live extraordinary lives and seem wildly adventurous for their time, but there is no backstory to why Jean is committed to do these things or why Joe takes such risks. Maybe that is shute’s point, that war makes heroes out of ordinary people and there is some of Jean and John in us all. I thought the reuniting was a bit sensational – after meeting someone in a prison camp and waiting 6 years all it takes is 4 days to decide to marry. I mean the story was written in 1950 not 1650. Ending: 6 – Not really a book that builds terribly to an ending, and it seems like Shute didn’t exactly know how to end it without writing happily ever after. The narrator visiting did bring some closure to the whole affair. I half expected Joe to die in the end unexpectedly. Message: 8- I liked the messages in this book 1.) anybody can be extraordinary 2.) women are the equal of men 3.) good things happen to people that take risks. 4) people can affect change in their community if they work at it. Timelessness: 6- This book has some timeless themes – search for true love, war is hell etc. The prose is probably timeless. The context is fixed as is the “shocking” behavior of the females in the book which seem somewhat dated today. Intangibles: 8 – Found my self rooting for the characters. Great quote about aging “You don’t feel any different as you get older. Only, you can’t do so much” Totally agree. Like the idea that hard work helps you get ahead. Liked learning about the tropics Total – 49 Good read, probably wouldn’t read again.

Monther Shaimee _onther_haimee — This book's title is a bit of a misnomer as it's not really a guide per se (at least not in the sense of, say, The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook: Holidays). Rather, it's an anthology of essays from 42 atheists divided into six sections: stories, science, how to, philosophy, arts, and events. These categories are a bit misleading. Yes, some of the essays seem connected to their category. But for the most parts the essays are simply stories (fiction and non-fiction) or rants somehow tied in with Christmas. This relation could be very direct (such as Emery Emery's story on how it sucks to have a birthday on December 25) or not even apparent (such as Charlie Brooker's essay of whether God would have a sense of humor). As you can imagine, with 42 different authors from all sorts of professions, the style varies considerably as well as the quality (at least for me). I found them to range anywhere from mildly interesting to uproariously funny. It is for this reason that this book didn't really stand out for me. It's just too hodgepodge-y to enjoy thoroughly. Aside from the fact that all the authors are atheists, there's not really any thread that ties them all together (I would also say Christmas, but as I stated earlier, some of the essays don't even draw on that). I guess one great quality about this, however, is that most theists could also enjoy this book. A lot of the grievances in here are things that, at least in my experience, also annoy them: the outrageously early time that Christmas seems to begin now, the excessive commercialism, sappy Christmas music, family dinners, etc. Sure, they may be taken aback by the occasional jab at believers here and there but I think the ones that can take a joke will find some amusement in this collection.
