WHAT A WONDERFUL NOVEL. “For nowhere else on earth had there ever been such an assemblage of novelties, animals, music, culture, science, and entertainment all in one place.”—page 151 ‘The Autobiography of Mrs. Tom Thumb: A Novel,’ by Melanie Benjamin, is a subtle love story, a gentle tragedy, a celebration of triumphs, and a rollicking adventure story rolled into one in a masterfully written tale. There’s little doubt but that the whole world loves a rascal, and quite possibly the greatest rascal of all times, the master of the humbug, himself, P. T. Barnum features large in this story. He may, however, have met his match, for genius and for outsized personality, in the amazing Vinnie Bump. Melanie Benjamin is now the newest one of my favorite writers. I enjoyed reading every page of her incredible story and look forward to reading more written by her. Recommendation: If you read only two books this year, this should be one of them—especially if you have an affinity for ‘le monde du spectacles’. “And whenever the time shall come when men are kind and just and honest; when they only want what is fair and right, judge only on real and true evidence, and take nothing for granted, then there will be no place left for any humbugs. Either harmless or hurtful.”—page 336 [From ‘The Humbugs of the World,’ by P. T. Barnum] Adobe Digital Editions [ePub], 365 pages, on loan from http://overdrive.colapublib.org/.

yaiy, this is another Holmes series. yang kedua dan dibuat, atau diterbitkan tahun 1890. masih tentang petualangan Holmes dan Watson mengungkap kasus pembunuhan. dan kali ini klien mereka adalah wanita, Mary Morstan yang kehilangan ayahnya, Kapten Arthur Morstan. ayah Mary baru pulang untuk cuti dari tugasnya sebagai tentara di resimennya di India, (India lagi?) dan berencana bertemu dengan puterinya itu, Mary. tapi sesampai Mary di hotel tempat ayahnya menginap, ayahnya sudah tidak ada. dari India, ayah Mary ternyata membawa rahasia. tentang harta milik seorang raja yang semestinya disembunyikan hingga keadaan aman, tapi justru dibagi-bagi oleh sesama prajurit dan mata-mata yang ingin kaya sendiri. awalnya tidak ada bagian Morstan di harta itu. namun seorang narapidana yang menginginkan kebebasan memberitahunya cerita tentang harta tersebut dan menawarkan bagian untuknya. ia tertarik dan berusaha untuk mendapatkannya. bersama Thaddeus Sholto, temannya, yang menjadi korban di kasus ini, mereka berusaha menemukan harta tersebut, dengan dalih membantu mencari harta tersebut kemudian akan dibagi bersama keempat orang lainnya yang awalnya berjanji untuk membagi harta tersebut. namun akhirnya Sholto berkhianat dan menyimpan harta itu sendiri. lagi-lagi tentang pengkhianatan dan dendam, eh. jadi inget pernah baca dimana gitu, pemenuhan hak seseorang akan mengusik hak orang lain. yah, selalu bagitu kan manusia. dan di novel ini akhirnya Watson menjatuhkan, kalau bisa dikatakan kek gitu, hatinya pada Mary. lagi lagi kasus ini tidak membuat Holmes jadi terkenal di koran-koran. percakapan Holmes dan Watson di akhir novel ini, "Agak tidak adil kan. Kau yang memecahkan kasus ini. Aku mendapat istri. Jones mendapat pujian. Lalu apa yang akan menjadi bagianmu?" "Bagianku," Kata Holmes "selalu ada botol kokain itu." yah, Holmes kecanduan kokain. herannya dia bisa tidak sakaw, eh. dia bikin itu kokain kayak rokok. jadi, semacam, under control. yups, that's all for this another story of our detective, Holmes.

Wow, what an amazing book! A strong heroine, a realationship that doesn't instantly unfold, and a plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat. If you're into fantansy, this is defiitely a must read.

Cleopatra killed herself. Why would I like the book when she killed herself?

This one was a surprise. First of all it Aiden was out of character and one was facing an insequere Liam. That was a nice change, but I missed Aiden, since he was mostly focusing on teaching and his students. Just the whiny brat they have to guard annoys me, the one in the privious book did as well. I liked them both on a mission more, so the first book is still my favorite in this series.

I read this book with my book club. Good read with a historical fiction feel. Interesting pictures are included with each chapter. It is about a young man who randomly joins the circus (kind of by accident). It goes back and forth between the present (when he is old) and the past (when he is a young depression-era man). Men and women will enjoy this story.

So far I'm loving this book. It's more than a collection of patterns - it's almost like a primer in sock design.

Bu ilginç bir kitaptı, ancak Irving'in diğer romanlarından yoksun gibi hissettim. Bu, bu nedenle bir hayal kırıklığı oldu.
