*Disclosure: I received this as an Advance Uncorrected Proof via Goodreads Firstreads Giveaway* I have to admit I had my reservations about this book when I started, it seemed to drag on and on about dates of ancestral homes and titles. I know that those are important for context later but they were given so woodenly it felt like a chore to wade through and assimilate that information. The 8 or 9 pages given to the discourse of who was the elder daughter, Mary or Anne was in my opinion too much. Understandably it is important to identify for the sake of a biography who is an elder sibling but I think the information could have been condensed without losing much credibility. I would have loved more information on Mary’s actual time in the French courts but regrettably there was not enough factual information for Weir to build on there so we get snippets of information of her time in France. Weir is very good at giving her readers the truth, she seems to be very thorough in providing her readers with the rumor and squashing it or enlivening it with facts. I have to say I was not really drawn into the book until about page 100 or so where it started giving more information that was not all conjecture. Sadly only two letters survive written by Mary Boleyn and all other information is based on gossip or court records. It must be overwhelming to an author to try to build a book around so little information but Weir did well anyway. Arguably the best part of the book, for me, was the last 150 pages or so and the Appendix I that lists her families successes after Mary’s death. We're even told of the more famous of Mary's decendants that have some very recongnizable names. All in all Alison Weir did a wonderful job writing about a woman that “all the world did set so little store by.” A woman that is touted as being the mistress of Kings but really probably had little say in if she wanted to be their mistress. Let’s face it a young teen would rarely have the nerve or even the foresight to say no to the King of France when propositioned. Later after marriage and with the status, land, and titles her family had to lose would she really have dared to say no to the likes of King Henry, a man whom no one said no to?

Not as good as the first two. Basically it is just their winter camping in the little valley, with some romantic twists and no real adventure or suspense. I didn't understand the need to introduce a couple of characters just to have them die in the next chapter. . . because I didn't really care, I didn't even know them. Dolores is a great new character and I enjoy the relationship she has with Hosea. The deaths of Malcolms were very sad. I'm looking forward to the next book when they are back on the road!

Este é o primeiro livro em que surge a personagem Hercule Poirot. Ficamos a saber o porquê de Poirot ter ido viver para Inglaterra e também que a amizade com o capitão Hastings já é antiga. Agatha Cristie é mais uma vez magistral na forma como nos leva numa direcção para, logo de seguida, dar uma volta de 180º... Achei que tinha descoberto praticamente tudo, mas afinal, só tinha descoberto o que a autora quis que descobrisse... Genial! Apesar de não ser um dos meus favoritos, gostei bastante deste O Misterioso Caso de Styles.

This is probably my favorite non-fiction book I own. I read this right after I returned from my first trip to Savannah, so the atmosphere was still fresh in my mind. Amazing story that shows sometimes truth is stranger than fiction.

The Bell Jar is what The Catcher in the Rye tries and fails to be - the story of a detached youth, a social misfit, slowly losing grip of reality. For Esther Greenwood, life is an existential wasteland void of meaning or purpose. The world makes little, if any sense. She struggles to orchestrate basic human behaviors - eating, bathing, sleeping. I won't give much else away, suffice to say that Esther is, in many ways, a piece within us all. The ending is softly sweet. One of the best books I've read in the past year.

the best thing so far in this generally very good little book is al gore's claim (on pg. 55) that george bush is actually a raving manichaean heretic.

The book Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli talks about one girl "stargirl" from the first day of her arrival, the quiet Mica High was in a burst of sound and color. People was talking about it in hallways and everywhere else. She captures Leo Borlock's heart with just one killing smile and she sparks school-spirit with just one cheer. The students of Mica High are in the game and they are enchanted at first until they turn on her. Stargirl was suddenly shunned for everything that makes her different from others, and Leo, panicked and desperate with love and wants to help her urges her to become something that is worse than killing her: to be normal. In this book, Jerry Spinelli weaves a tense emotional tale about the perils of popularity of how a person could not always stood at the top of everything, the higher you stand the more painful it felt when you fall. Another catching plot of this book is the thrill of the first love, always so sweet and engaging. I here recommand this book to all of you who are interested in reading it, especially the girls. It is way worth to try it out.

One of Vonnegut's finer works. It is contemporary and cynical. It doesn't leave you with a warm fuzzy feeling at the end, but you will definitely laugh out loud while reading it...
