I was so taken with the book. Then I saw the movie and was like, yuck! I was a teenager when I read this and had my own idea of handsome. It was not Clark Gable! Again, date is approximate!

Too relevant still today, unfortunately. Otsuka tells this with such constraint, it's almost as if we're held at a distance. It's no Night, but it beats that Dennis Quaid flick. Check out http://www.densho.org/ for a stunning collection of personal narratives and primary docs on the internment.

Kore’Deki Çatı Katımdan Sesleniyorum - Didem Duygu Demir TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Ephesus Yayınları

Allie Beckstrom, bad-ass Hound in Portland, Oregon, is back! She might not remember her last adventure but she's definitely living with the consequences. Something in her remembers Zayvion Jones but can she trust the thought that they were more than just friends? He's a hard man to read but Allie might have to trust him and his advice about some powerful people who police the use of magic. People her father was involved with. But there isn't time to dwell on her missing memories because the police's magic enforcement division needs her expertise on a mysterious kidnapping case. As the case leads her into the dangerous realm of blood magic, Allie may have to question the motivations of one of the only Hounds she might call a friend. I know, I know! My synopsis is a little lacking. I really didn't want to give too much away. This second installment in the exciting new Allie Beckstrom series is just as carefully woven as the first. You'll just really have to read the plot description provided on the back of the book (or if you're shopping online in the product info) and maybe look at some other reviews who have shared other points. I was scared I might spoil something if I said anymore. So how was the book? A bit slower paced and not as action driven as Magic to the Bone. Because Allie is just getting back on her feet after the body breaking and memory wiping adventure of the first book it's understandable she might just be trying to get her life back in order. With her father dead she has a lot to deal with on that front. The wife he left behind, legal matters and maybe even his ghost! The ghost angle is definitely what drives this story this time around and adds a really interesting element to the magic system Monk has built for this series. Throughout Magic in the Blood, Monk introduces us to more of the magic using community. From the corruption of blood magic users to a group of Hounds working together to protect their own, the lines between good guys and bad continues to be blurred, twisted and remolded. I especially wanted to read more about the other Hounds and how they dealt with the negative side affects of being magic users. Alcoholics, pill poppers, coke heads and cutters being presented in this different world and situation may bother some readers who might take it as glamorizing addiction but I felt it made a really good point about paying the price and suffering the consequences for having magical power. Frustrating but adding to the romantic tension of the relationship is the interaction between Zayvion and Allie now that she can't remember them being together. This relationship has thus far been a mysterious one and fans of interracial romance who also like urban fantasy should really be reading this series! I have to say that thus far Zay has become a personal favorite 'hero'. All in all Magic in the Blood was a great, if a little slower paced, follow-up to Magic to the Bone. I think if you enjoyed the first you'll really like the second... especially the 'oh-no-she-didn't' cliff-hanger ending Monk left us with. It's gonna be a tough wait for the third installment!

Still a great children's classic (though a lot more violence than I remembered from reading it as a child).

Read the first half non-stop (maybe because I was trapped on a plane for several hours with nothing but the airline mags?) and (really, not because of the plane thing) enjoyed it. However, by the end Tan's narrator became a little tiresome and I ended up skimming thru several chapters - even now, I'm not sure I actually read it to the end. Two and a half stars.

I want to like the book--I was enraptured by The Sleeping Father--but somehow it's too scatalogically and escatalogically cliched at the same time. Pocahontas is fantastic, tho.

When it hit 1984 and I still hadn't read this book, I figured it was about time!

I am currently 1390 pages into this 1475 page monster. It is an amazing portrait of the newly free India in the mid-1950s. The detail of the culture, politics and religion is amazing, and the array of characters and intersecting stories is impressive as well. My number one criticism throughout the book has been and continues to be that the characters are not very complex or believable. But then, I am anxious to see what happens in the next 90 pages, so they are believable enough for me to be invested (it is either that or the thousand-odd pages I have already invested). For example: Mrs. Mehra is almost always ridiculous, and Arun is always obnoxious. Meenakshi is completely odious with no redeeming qualities, while Savita is completely good with no quirks or annoying qualities. They are all almost stock characters, but I don't think that the purpose is symbolism or anything that lofty. I just think it is a weakness of the author. I know that there are a lot of characters to keep track of, but this aspect of the book annoys me, and it is a shame bc the book on the whole is impressive. The other thing that annoys me is the terrible poetry that is interspersed throughout. I think a lot of it is meant to be terrible (the Kuku couplets), and a lot of it is probably real poetry that hasn't translated well. I feel like a lot of people would probably argue that the poetry is an indispensable part of the story, and in a lot of ways I agree. In fact, I would love to talk to people about what they think the function of the ever-present rhyming is. Right now I don't have the energy for a full analysis though. So far, I think that this book and the work that must have gone into writing it is an incredibly impressive feat. While I am not overly blown away by the style of writing (see my character critique above), I am appreciative of the work, and again, I am excited to see how the next 100 pages go. It really has opened up a totally different and incomprehensible world to me, and that is no small accomplishment.
