Good book. Reminds us of the atrocities of the Japanese and how much being a POW can damage a person who was normal going into the war. Details how the key character overcame adversity through faith at the end.

Max and the flock are back. While she continues to keep the flock safe, she also has to figure out how she is supposed to save the world. The evil plan is days away from unfolding. Half of the people in the world are going to be killed in order to give the worthy ones that remain a chance to thrive. The human race has done such a poor job of taking care of the planet that the Itex Corporation decided only the people with something to offer deserve the right to live in it. Another problem the flock is dealing with is the creation of an updated version of Erasers. Now made of metal and covered with a layer of skin, learning how to take them out takes a little time - especially since these "Flyboys" come equipped with guns! Relationships are strained within the flock in this latest installment of the Maximum Rides saga. Fang continues to update his blog and attempt to enlist children from around the world to become involved with the fight against Itex and all its subsidiaries. Max doesn't have faith that kids can help, which of course, causes friction between them and ultimately leads to a split in the group. The reader is tugged along on a roller coaster ride adventure with Max's constant sarcastic commentary to guide them. We see familiar faces as well as meet brand new players in this deadly game. Max manages to thwart disaster, reconcile the flock, and discover the identity of her parents. James Patterson does a nice job of tying up loose ends and leaves the story with a satisfying ending. If there isn't a fourth installment, fans will be happy with the way Max and the rest of the flock land on their feet.

Good set of essays by Gombrich, There's a lot of academic questions, but a genuinely delightful piece on Leonardo, and a brilliant piece on the role of imitation in renaissance art, which every practising artist should read.

I love the character of Cannie Shapiro. It was fun to have a second book featuring her and the development of her relationship with her daughter.

New author for me in the legal thriller genre. Just when you think things should get better for Joe Dillard, they get worse. But he comes out OK!

Tmeple Grandin is amazing and this book was totally engrossing. I am not usually "into" non-fiction, but I did not want to put this book down. Temple's insights into how animals think and what they feel - whether it's predator (dogs, cats, tigers, wolves) or prey (cattle, horses, sheep) animals - are thought provoking and a definite eye opener into how "normal" people see the world. Anyone interested in animal behavior would find this book intriguing. I am thinking of picking up her books that are about autism in the near future. (FYI, Temple Grandin is autistic, and is able to "see" how animals see. She has a PhD in Animal Behavior, and is an expert in the field of cattle handling.)

Not a book I could get into - very random beginning and not much depth. Have many other books to read..

I spent most of my Sunday afternoon (May 6) finishing this book in one fell swoop. My room mate recommended it, and once I got hold of it, I couldn't put it down. Once you meet the father and son on their perilous journey along the postapocalyptic Road, you can't rest. I picked up Blood Meridian a few years ago, but since I was travelling at the time, I ended up putting it down and forgetting about it. Regardless, I was impressed by McCarthy's writing, the way his arcane vocabulary and Biblical syntax distance the frontier West from the present day and create an arena for epic storytelling. (In contrast, episodes of Deadwood, which works in the same vein--really well but in a different way--feel anachronistic.) In The Road, McCarthy ditches some of the vocabulary and curtails some of the syntax to do something similar but opposite--create an allegory of the future, again, sufficiently distanced from the present, but also distanced from that rich mythic and religious past that he works with so richly in Blood Meridian. You may not want to read this part if you haven't read the book, just because I'm giving away what never happens. The persistent aspect of the book is that the events that have destroyed civilization are never revealed. This isn't the focus of the book, so it's not a great lost, but it throws the whole story into deeper contrast because there is no easy way to make sense of their situation. The characters have little more than their own personal histories, and the few flashy bits of vocabulary that McCarthy throws in (catamite, clerestory), allude to a world of reference and understanding that is gone. In this cultural void, the relationship between the father and son takes center stage. In McCarthy's world of might and violence, it's not what they say so much as what they do, how they drive each other to survive that makes this a deep look at the father-son bond. In case you can't tell, I highly recommend it.
