funny at many points and sometimes franzen tends to digress but probably to show the characters' thought processes. i liked the fact that the characters seemed real and believable. they are an upper middle class family that live in "quiet desperation" and are all on the brink of mental breakdowns. reading this book made me wonder if franzen thinks life really is this tiring, endless and monotonous.

Loved this book. Loved Juliet and all the other characters. They were very personable and witty. I thought finding out about the story and characters bit by bit through the letters was facinating.

See my Bookslut interview for more: http://www.bookslut.com/blog/archives... I picked up a copy of Pasha Malla's The Withdrawal Method, and I immediately thought of George Saunders' comedy tempered by a down-to-earth acceptance of reality, almost humility. Malla's stories explore the fantastic aspects of everyday life, from the meanderings of a lonely child and his favorite music teacher in the classroom to the 1980's definition of a latchkey child. And yet none of these become trite in the process. The last time I found myself this addicted to a book of short stories, I was on the verge of passing out from influenza on a G train with Elizabeth Crane's You Must Be This Happy to Enter. I didn't want my ride to the doctor's office to end simply because I wanted to read more about the town that lost its color. You have to love that feeling. Malla also wrote a book of poetry (he uses quotes with the term) entitled All Our Grandfathers Are Ghosts, and he has written quite often for the likes of Nerve and The Morning News. He's currently working on a novel due out by Anansi in 2010.

I love Damien Hirst and this book is real fun to read. It's also impresive.

Gabrielle Hamilton certainly has led an enviable life. Blood, Bones & Butter is an adventure, and, truthfully, I was disappointed when it ended. But I found that while Hamilton is skilled at invoking the senses, she is less adept at reconciling various parts of her story.The resulting gaps within the narrative make it a disjointed and frustrating read and impair what is otherwise a very good book. Feeling “disaffected” after 20 years in the kitchen, she leaves to pursue an MFA degree. After returning to Manhattan, she opens Prune without any prior experience as a restaurant chef or manager. Up to that point, we hear only about a mishmash of catering jobs and a couple of summers as a children’s camp cook. Considering that unorthodox employment record (and her ambiguous feelings toward the industry), the decision to take on her own restaurant is puzzling. Filling in her storytelling would enable readers to make sense of it. Somewhere in there, she could have talked more about her transformation from hustling cocktail waitress to accomplished professional chef. Who (besides her mother) or what has influenced her, and how did she master her craft? What does she feel is most rewarding about a culinary career, and why, specifically, does she become disenchanted with hers? How does she feel she can succeed in the competitive New York restaurant scene? Similar omissions appear in the telling of her personal life. Although I can understand her anger and sense of abandonment at her family’s breakup, I cannot comprehend why those feelings are directed entirely at her mother. I sense that she doesn’t either, because she never addresses it. Hamilton seems unwilling or unable to self-analyze. Equally as confusing is her sudden change from gay to heterosexual woman. No explanation given. She is either as baffled by it herself or simply disinclined to connect the dots for her readers. Overall, it is an enjoyable book, but somehow unsatisfying. The holes are too large. Yes, Hamilton can choose how much to reveal in her memoir. Like another poster suggested, however, she could better support those parts she does reveal.

Even though this was written by her grand-nephew, the voice of Julia Child comes through loud and clear. It is just a charming account of a woman who found her path later in life. Thoroughly enjoyable...another book I couldn't put down. I think I read the entire thing on a flight to France.

Membaca novel fiksi ini, jiwa ini dibuat tertegun oleh sebuah gambaran kepolosan anak-anak, kekuatan iman, keteguhan hati, kegigihan, dan keceriaan anak-anak Aceh... Satu hal yang membuat kagum pada novel ini adalah, ending yang apik dibuat oleh Tere-Liye, ending yang mengajak pembaca untuk berfikir, sebab tidak to the point digambarkan, namun tersirat dan tersurat dari kalimat yang dibuatnya....

A beautiful book. Read this slowly and devour every last word. Written in touching fragments, which only added to the beauty.
