This is a man's journal entries over nearly 40 years, beginning with his graduation from Harvard. He traveled extensively as a diplomat, and wrote about his growing fascination with Islam. It is inspiring on several levels, but what most struck me is the passage of time internally and externally-- the ways that you see his thoughts develop and change over years, how he revisits countries after dramatic upheavals. It inspired me to start keeping a journal for the first time in my life!

Dinosaurs' Halloween is one of four books we purchased at Gold Beach Books on our recent trip into Oregon. Sean and I picked it out because he had been studying dinosaurs at school. We were both drawn to the book almost simultaneously and having read it together a couple of times, we're glad we decided to grab it. Dinosaurs live among us in Dinosaurs' Halloween and their children enjoy trick-or-treating just as much as the human children. The hunt for candy and the fun of wearing costumes brings together a human, a dog and a dinosaur for a night of fun and a lasting friendship. At the back of the book the author lists two pages of information about dinosaurs (real and imagined). Some of the information is out of date (brontosaurus instead of brachiasaurus, for example) and some of it is completely made up (but is at least marked as such). These two pages are a fun stepping stone to encourage young readers to ask questions about dinosaurs and hopefully seek out other books to read about them.

It is rare that I give a book fives stars. Although there were a few things about this book the weren't the best (a few things that had me rolling my eyes) the reason I gave it 5 stars is because this book is epic!! The story could have ended so many times as most books do, allowing you to imagine that the characters lived happily ever after! But it doesn't. You get to 'live' (for lack of a better word) with these characters through out the good times and bad... through 'thick & thin' (I know... Im being cheesy!) I couldn't put this book down!! Great read!

Just like Jane Eyre, I came to parts where I was irritated at the weaknesses of female character, but overall this is a great story.

This was absolutely hilarious. I didn't know much about Chelsea Handler before reading this, I just wanted a laugh, and I definitely wasn't disappointed. I hope her other books are as funny.

To be honest, I wasn't crazy about this book. It was well-written and an excellent example of its genre, but I closed it feeling really depressed and generally dismal about the people who populate the world.

Bill Spaceman Lee is totally insane in the best possibly way. This book is absolutely absurd, hysterical, and extremely difficult to put down. Lee imagines how different the Sox might have been if many bad decisions hadn't been made, and starts in the realm of the likely, and ends up in the land of positively absurd. Wonderful.

I finished this book a few days ago, and have spent the time reflecting that it is in many ways a perfect novel. This is one of those books that gets better the more you think about it. As many reviewers have noted, Margaret Atwood tells us the same story in three different ways (or four, depending on how you count them): (1) Newspaper clippings describing events, (2) Iris Chase Griffin's memoirs in her last years and (3) the story The Blind Assassin, in which an anonymous man tells a science fiction story to his lover. These narration are interwoven throughout the novel. All three of these types of narration have strengths and weaknesses, and while all three are describing the same era and events, the impression we get of the characters is vastly different. None of them tells a complete story. The reader is forced to guess and fill in the blanks throughout. Ironically, we discover that the news clippings, perhaps the most objectively "true" are in fact the least accurate versions of what occurred. In many ways, the fictional story The Blind Assassin is the most accurate telling of history. Strikingly, the portrayal of Iris herself in these narrations varies the most. Her passivity makes her a remarkably un-interesting character - except that she isn't nearly as passive as we might believe. I'm not sure if we can ascribe her passivity to "the role of women at the time" - certainly Atwood has commentary on the subject, but Winnifred Griffin Prior is also a woman of the time and she is certainly not a passive participant in her life or in others'. Thankfully for the story, Iris is in fact complex, complicated, and dynamic - and a great narrator. I've also been pondering the story The Blind Assassin and its significance to the novel as a whole. Is Iris the true Blind Assassin? Is she more like the sacrificial, tongueless girl in the story? What is the significance of the various endings to the story that are played with? I will have to re-read this with these questions in mind. Of course, Atwood's brilliant style shines within this structure. I have been a fan of hers for years, but somehow did not get around to reading this one before. She picks apart the English language in digressions, implements turns of phrase with ease and cleverness, and sucks you in. And although she tells you the ending in the first 2 or 3 chapters, she still manages to surprise and shock. What more can you ask for?

** spoiler alert ** I ranked this lower than other Jodi Picoult novels for two reasons: 1. Too much ground to cover & too much going on: Having a same-sex couple struggle to have a baby is hard enough but when you thrown in the fact that one of them has been married to a male before, experiences miscarriages, gets cancer, has to come out to her friends and family, there gets to be too much going on for one story and it cheapens the depth that the author can achieve with the characters. 2. I was hoping that this story wouldn't end with a court case. My favorite Jodi Picoult novels are the ones that don't have a court case and while this one wasn't as dragged out as some of the others, I was still hoping for something different. I did enjoy the book, but I was hoping for a structure that was a little more original.
