This book is one of my favorites, since my introduction to it by one Mr. Nagler. I've read it three times so far, and it gets better with every reading! Without giving away any spoilers, I'll say that I've recommended this book to everyone I can think of and given as a gift twice. It's amazing.

I think I would have liked this book more had we not been required to read it for school - being forced to read books at a certain pace and for a grade often takes away from my enjoyment of a good read. I liked Fitzgerald's usage of Nick as this somewhat-objective, outside narrator though. Also, his descriptions and characters are quite intriguing.

This book is very nicely crafted. I always liked the fairy tale as a girl, and so, I loved almost everything about this novel.

This snoozefest has me now shing away from reading anymore Woolf, though I hear she has some great stuff.

1940 Caldecott Medal Winner Black and white illustrations alternate with color ones--I read for a children's lit class that this was often the case before color illustrations became less expensive to print. It looks like the drawings were done in pencil and color pencil. Pretty realistic depictions, although the black people look mostly the same and have goofy "blackface" faces--not exactly flattering. Abraham Lincoln grows up, beats up some pirates, studies law, and ultimately becomes president in this wonderful book. I don't know much about Lincoln, so I can't comment on the historical accuracy--I couldn't help but wonder whether it was true that he actually never hunted any animals. I mean, come on... pioneers? I'd be surprised if that were true. It also used dated words like "Negro" to describe black people, but through Lincoln's actions it did depict them favorably, so I thought that kind of made up for the datedness in that area. Lincoln was against the cruelties of the slave trade. The illustrations of black people were pretty bad, though, as mentioned above. The Indian War was also dubiously justified: "...an Indian chief, Black Hawk, had come back to Illinois with his warriors. His tribe had sold the land to the 'paleface,' but Black Hawk said: 'Man-ee-do, the great spirit, gave us the land, it couldn't be sold.' 'Sold is sold,' said the people of Illinois, and went to war to chase the Indians out." Ouch. Maybe that's not overtly justifying it, but it doesn't pay much attention to the fact that the U. S. usually tricked the natives into signing over their land. To Lincoln's credit, though, he did defend an Indian against his own troops (depicted in the book). Other than the race issues, I really enjoyed this book. Lincoln was probably one of the best presidents we've ever had. He was an honest person with a big heart, but he also knew great sadness. This is an amazing story and it makes me want to read more in-depth about Lincoln. Not sure if kids would put up with the length of this book, but who knows?

I really enjoyed this book. Her characters, dialogue and suspense keeps you guessing. Great Sci-Fi series, especially for linguistics nerds.

Absolute Monarchs was an absolute joy to read. In his Introduction, Norwich writes this disclaimer "...as an agnostic Protestant, I have no ax to grind, still less any desire to whitewash it (the Papacy) or hold it up to ridicule". True to his word, he has penned a fascinating history of what is still one of the most powerful positions in the world. Whatever your religion, or lack thereof, this is a highly recommended read.
