I read this book on my way to Thailand to visit a friend who works with Burmese refugees so I must say it was an appropriate read for the trip! I read this a few years ago but I remember I was fascinated by Pascal's personal life and struggles but also with the way he describes his home country's governing rulers and what it's like to live under rulers like that. Basically I remember it as a well written and amazing true story. Wow.

I did enjoy this book, but not as much as Gertrude Stein probably enjoyed writing it, or thinks that I should like it. And that's my main problem with this book; Stein isn't the epoch-making writer that she believes herself to be. A few things to get straight: i) this isn't an autobiography of Alice B Toklas, ii) this is a sort of autobiography of Gertrude Stein, iii) not a lot happens, iv) most of the people mentioned as geniuses are no longer more than footnotes in art history, v) Stein's writing style isn't designed to engage the reader. Alice B Toklas is most famous nowadays as the name behind hash brownies (from a recipe she included in her "Alice B Toklas Cook Book" - a book that she DID write). I still have no idea whether Stein and Toklas were companions or "companions" - although I'm sure a quick glance at Wikipedia would tell me. As far as the book goes. It's gossipy, but not in an interesting gossipy way. Stories about other people inevitably wind up being stories about Gertrude Stein (she's like that person who says "That's enough about me, let's talk about you. What do YOU think about me?"). The tales before the war are most interesting, if only because the people they were associating with were more famous: Picasso, Matisse, Cezanne, Braque. After the war, the only name of note who appears is Ernest Hemmingway (and Stein takes complete credit for his success and the way he wrote). The war is nothing like the WW1 you might have heard about. Stein and Toklas bimble about in a Ford ambulance and nobody dies and after the war in Paris there are more young people than ever before (which was different from every other city in Europe I should imagine). What's odd is that despite being intensly self-centered and Stein being quite unlikable and the gossip being particularly dull, I quite enjoyed it - although perhaps not in the way that Stein would have liked me to have enjoyed it. I liked it because it felt like a diary that you or I might have written (they said this and I said that and then they said this and then so and so came in etc), and if there was anything that Stein would have hated to have been considered, it would be ordinary.

** spoiler alert ** This one went by a little more quickly for me than New Moon and had a bit more action. I'm glad the vampires are back in town. Bella was starting to really grate on my nerves by the end of the book. She's willing to die and become a vampire and pledge herself to Edward, but she doesn't want to marry him. She's downright rude about it too! The love triangle is fun, but again, Bella started to annoy me by stringing Jacob along, not realizing until near the end of the book that she might love him, and she's fully aware that she's starting to hurt Edward. I was really feeling for both Jacob and Edward by the end of this. The exchanges between Edward and Jacob were really good, especially when Jacob was serving as a space heater for Bella. :-)

Atrocious saga that never allows the reader opportunity to connect with any of the characters before leaping another century to yet another boring epoque, in which the truly adventurous, exciting bits are merely dryly narrated as a history text. If I wanted to read a text book, I would! Give me a thrilling novel, for goodness' sake!

This book has the craziest characters but the interesting thing is that it's a true story of the author's life. This is definitely not a feel-good book but it gives you an inside look at some beyond-normal people.

A very embarrassing book to listen to in public, I kept laughing out loud.
