Çocukların Sevdiği 365 Yaratıcı Oyun - Judith Gray TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Pozitif Yayınları

This was the last in a recent glut of 'food' books that began with Julia Child - apparently lots of other people wanted to read it because I waited in a long virtual line at the library for it. I'd moved on to other things by the time it arrived and hadn't really expected to do more than glance through the first chapter before putting it down. Instead I stayed up too late to finish it and only fell asleep once. The description of her father's lamb roasting party, woven into her local-food rural idyllic upbringing, was lovely and lulled me into the sense that this would be like those books where milking your own cow is better than graduating from Harvard, where children are home-schooled and end up with perfect scores and Nobel prizes - in other words, all things modern are bad. I actually like those books, at some level, because there is a lot we do wrong with 'modern'. Then, of course, she turns 13 and her life explodes and the book moves on to what I thought she accurately described as Pippi Longstocking fantasy - though I added "Pippi Gone Wild". She isn't terribly angry at her folks, interestingly enough, though places the blame of circumstance at their feet (fairly). I enjoyed what I often enjoy in books about food - the passionate obsession the author pours into writing about their passionate obsession. Why would someone become a chef or cook if they didn't absolutely, completely love food? She points out they must also love the life because its hell, but I was even a bit...well, intrigued and enamored of 'the life' reading her descriptions. And I dabbled a bit and got out. Quickly. She is right though - there is a certain family-ness to the restaurant/food business, usually dysfunctional but also supportive and very hard to leave. She talks about food and about her experiences in Italy with the same devotion, though not the same achievement of joy, as Julia Child. I expect she is still working on the joy part - for most of us, it is a journey. Outside of the food writing, I enjoyed a few other parts of the book. First, was a description of conversations with her sister that was lovely and descriptive of how the women in my family communicate: "But her purpose is not merely to convey to me the story or the information until I have comprehended. Her purpose is to take a long luxurious bath in my ear and to disgorge the entire unedited contents of her brain - with sidebars, cul-de-sacs, dead ends, and repetitions - so that she can examine those contents. She is processing." Exactly. I book marked the page (154). She also had interesting comments on the Woman in the Culinary Arts that resonated. Someone introduced her as one of the "top female chefs" and she wondered why the description had to include 'female'. Why couldn't she just be one of the top chefs? She pointed out that for many women, there is the agony of deciding what to wear - not because they are all about fashion, but because they don't know what will present themselves the most professionally, feminine but not girly, reliable but not 'sturdy'...while men just put on pants. I am the least conscious dresser (as I am told when its pointed out that lime green socks may not have been the best choice with maroon pants), but her comment made me think about the labels we put on things, almost unconsciously.

İlkçağ Felsefesi Tarihi - Bayram Ali Çetinkaya TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: İnsan Yayınları

I always find it interesting when I don't like a book that is popular, or supposed to be a great book. I didn't like the writing style. Flopped around too much. I hated the content of the story. Meaning it pissed me off. I think it's supposed to evoke that emotion. Not what I expected at all.

Pride and Prejudice (Collins Classics) - Jane Austen TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Collins Yayınları

La Biblia de la literatura fantástica. Es impresionante cómo Tolkien logró crear un mundo tan vasto. Es el único libro que ha tenido su lugar fijo en mi mesita de luz por casi diez años, y al que vuelvo con frecuencia aunque sea a leer algunas páginas. Ainulindalë y la historia de Beren y Lúthien siempre serán de mis relatos favoritos de todos los tiempos.

THANK GOD I finished this damn book!!! Oh Virginia, I tried SO hard to like this book. I felt some sort of obligation since you stuck all those rocks in your pocket and marched with such determination into the sea, yourself. But god, this book SUCKS! I hate stream of consciousness! I hated how this book dragged on and on and on like some sort of slow moving nightmare. I hated this book even more than The Map that Changed the World, and that's pretty bad.

Sen Denilen Yer TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Venedik Yayınları

"As the owner of a hot nightclub, Vanda she's more unconventional than most of her fellow vampires, and if some think her a little out of control, then so be it. But after three former employees filed a complaint about her temper, Vanda is sentenced to an anger management class. Worse, Phil Jones agreed to be her sponsor. Phil, the mortal who is forbidden to her . . . If Vanda knew who—or what—Phil really is, she'd reconsider her attraction to him, for his true nature is wilder than anything she'd ever imagined. He has tackled the beast within and now is the perfect person to help Vanda with her rage . . . if only he can keep his cool when she makes him so undeniably hot. But with rogue vamps on the loose, will they ever have their forbidden nights?" - Goodreads My review - I always enjoy Kerrelyn Sparks and this was no exception. I especially liked that once these two got together, they were always able to work things out without huge misunderstandings that are so prevalent in other romance stories. Looking forward to reading the next one.

Laugh out loud funny. A great read for short attention span - as it's a collection of short stories. If you like David Sedaris, but more real and less weird...

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Yeni Umut Yayınları

Without saying much or giving away what some of the back cover gives away (don't read the back cover if you get the book - it gives some of story away) - this is one of the most moving true stories I have read. Allows one to think way outside the box - and to see what life is like, or can be like, for certain people when things go astray. Amazing documentary of one woman's life as well as her family's life ordeal. super book.

James Clerk Maxwell was an amazing man and scientist. Although the book got a little too technical for me, I came away with profound respect and admiration for this brilliant man who was also kind and good.
