Can guys actually 'fall in love' at first sight? I haven't read the entire series (only this part 1) so I won't say much about it yet. I'll give it a 3.5 stars for the sexy, hot scenes.

somewhat acedemic, but a thoroughly researched tome on how the artisans and workers built the foundations of science. the 'great men of science' heroification theory has been discounted before, but this is pretty interesting socio-political science reading. if you're a nerd.

Eventually, I developed my own image of teh "befriending" impulse behind my depression. Imagine that from early in my life, a friendly figure, standing a block away, was trying to get my attention by shouting my name, wanting to teach me some hard but healing truths about myself. But I-- fearful of what I might hear or arrogantly trying to live wihtout help or simply too busy with my ideas and ego and ethics to bother-- ignored teh shouts and walked away. So this figure, still with friendly intent, came closer and shouted more loudly, but AI kept walking. Ever closer it came, close enough to tap me on the shoulder, but I walked on. Frustrated by my unresponsiveness, the figure threw stones at my back, then struck me with a stick, still wanting simply to get my attention. But despite teh pain, I kept walking away. Over teh years, teh befriending intent of this figure never disapppeared but became obscured by the frustration cuased by my refusal to turn around. Since shouts and taps, stones and sticks had failed to do the trick, there was only one thing left: drop the nuclear bomb called depression on me, not with the intent to kill but as a last-ditch effort to get me to turn and ask the simple question, "What do you want?" When I was finally able to make the turn-- and start to absorb and act on the self-knowledge that then became available to me-- I began to get well. The figure calling to me all those years was, I believe, what Thomas Merton calls "true self." This is not the ego self that wants to inflate us (or deflate us, another from of self-distortion), not the intellectual self that wants to hover above the mess of life in clear but ungrounded ideas, not the ethical self that wants to live by some abstract moral code. It is the self-planted in us by the God who made us in God's own image-- the self that wants nothing more, or less, than for us to be who we were created to be. True self is true friend. One ignores or rejects such friendship only at one's peril.

This book was a quick read and a great story. I had a hard time putting it down. It had a little mystery and a little history. Included a lot of interesting stuff about life in the circus.

** spoiler alert ** I read LotF back in middle school, but that was almost 20 years ago so I figured I'd give it a refresher. I'm glad I did, too. After I got into it, I realized I couldn't remember exactly how it ended. Okay, let me get this out of the way right up front: have you ever used glasses to try and make a fire? It's hard. Sometimes, depending on your prescription, it's nigh impossible. But that's a minor nit-pick and has little to do with the actual story. I just had to point it out. First off, I'm fat and nearly blind without my glasses. So, yes, poor ol' Piggy gets much of my sympathy. Left with half his sight, powerless, knowing what should be done but without any way to get his voice heard - pretty much my childhood nightmare. I think that when I read this book as a kid, I spent so much time tied up in that side of things that the larger struggle went by the side for me. I'm pretty sure that the fact that a nuclear war was going on in the outside world while the boys are trapped went completely over my head the first time. Stories about Brits always seem a little old timey to a lot of American kids, myself included, and that and the 1950s language had me setting it mentally during World War II. Even so, the comparison between the boys' battles and the larger war didn't entirely escape me. "I expected better from British boys." Except that British men were engaged in struggles that only differed in their scope. As a kid, of course, I felt like I could do better. I'd know to keep that fire burning. I'd know to build better shelters and make sure the whole tribe felt engaged in our attempts to be rescued. Looking back now, of course, that's bullshit. I'd be Piggy or, in the best case, Ralph - aware but frustrated almost to the point of madness. I've watched a lot of Survivor since then (ha!). I've been part of various troops and crews and teams. I know that the loudest voice and most entertaining path takes the lead, and if that's not me than to hell with what I might think is the right thing to do. Folks write books and papers and websites and so on detailing the symbolism of Lord of the Flies. What did the pig skull symbolize? How about the downed pilot? The conch? The pool in which they swam? The face paint? But, in the end, all that doesn't matter. When Ralph notices that his spear, the one the sow's head was impaled on as an offering to the Beast, is sharpened on both ends and realizes what that means about about the fate that Jack and Roger have planned for him, that's just damn good storytelling. final thoughts: If anyone tells you seriously that they could do better, keep an eye on them. That's a Jack right there. (http://epicdystopia.blogspot.com)

Jane Haddam's books really vary in quality. This one anyone who went to high school should read. The clique of girls--now women--make me alternately laugh and scream.

Better than the first because the killer is introduced earlier in the book so he is among the list of suspects. I had suspected him early on, but Gaus surprised me with the way in which the killer was linked.

What a great read. Structurally there was some Stein, maybe a hint of Flannery O'Connor with a ton of dashing one-liners that read with a poetic magnitude generally reserved for poems. I'll be picking up her first novel for sure. There's also this need to think of Poppy Z. Brite that won't let me leave this little review alone.

An amazing novel and thoroughly not what I expected. Although Callie/Cal's sexuality was obviously a focal point and the thread which tied the entire novel together, the sheer scope of the book was amazing. Greece, Detroit, and three generations were brought to life with an amazing voice and stunning character development. It was fascinating as well to hear the older Cal's reflections not only about Callie's life but about the lives of his ancestors. Eugenides' choice to have a first person omniscient narrator was one of the most important parts of the book; it seemed to tie the entire plot together as well as adding to the mystical element of Greek tradition that ran throughout. A sometimes distressing but utterly fascinating and beautifully crafted novel - I couldn't put it down! It's killing me though -- why is Cal's brother named "Chapter 11"???

I have been reading a lot of Shannon Hale recently to keep up with my daughters. Their grandmother actually gave them several of these books about 4 years ago...they did not like them then (too young and the books seemed too dark and scary), but now they really enjoyed them. I agree with Abby that Enna's story is the most interesting...somehow her character feels most complex and most real. Good books for young teens/pre=teens who want a book with adventure and magic and a little romance (not too graphic). The magics in the series...in this one fire speaking and in others speaking to air, water, or trees and most dangerous of all "peoplespeaking" are very intriguing with the possibilities and the burdens they offer...no light and easy magic here but magic with a price and with responsibility. Each book has it's share of death and darkness, but they balance sober with lightheartedness very well...not too bleak.
