This is the sequel to The Adventures of Hardy Belch. Yet, like the Hardy Boys mysteries it reminds me of, I don't believe reading out of order will be a problem. The set up: Twelve-year-old Hardy Belch has a dog. But not just *any* dog. His pet is telepathic and some of the funniest bits are the talk-thoughts that go between owner and canine as they solve mysteries. The book is divided into short vignettes that would be easy for a reluctant reader to get into. The illustrations are excellent and really work with the story. The chapters breeze by, and, not wanting to spoil, but...there will be a dinosaur. (he's on the cover, duh). And buried treasure. And more treasure. This book is full of boy appeal.

A quick but intense read containing several interviews Chomsky gave around the time of 9-11.

One of my few ventures into historical fiction! The Secret River is about the settlement of New South Wales by exiled British criminals at the begining of the 19th century. It tells the story of the violent culture clash between the settlers and the Australian Aborigones through the eyes of a British family. I'm not sure I would have enjoyed it as much if it was not based on Australian history.

I enjoyed some of the verses in it but I thought the aurthor went into a little to much detail of her friends lives for every chapter. She had a story about someone she knew on every page and not enough info on religion in some chapters.

I found Mansfield Park fascinating when taken together with Austen's five other completed novels. There's a lot going on in this book, and it brings us some of Austen's most interesting characters, namely Fanny Price and Mary Crawford, who break from her much-loved archetypes. I think Austen's other works stand firmly on their own, and any one of them could serve as a solid introduction to her work and is easily fallen in love with, but I don't think this is the case with Mansfield Park. And this isn't to say that MP isn't extraordinary - extremely well written, interesting, and complex - it is. In some ways, it's Austen's most complex work. There is some language and turn of phrase in here that stunned me, it was so comparatively modern and fresh sounding. It also explores and attacks Regency manners and conventions and questions of class and social status more sharply (yet at the same time subtly) than her other works. And there's extensive discussion of education and literature, which is unusual for Austen. A lot of titles are thrown around in the dialogue. Above all, however, there's a sadness to this work, a darkness, that doesn't exist in the other works, not even Persuasion, which is often considered Austen's most serious piece. I get the feeling reading this book that Austen was making a conscious departure - in topic, in tone. She's trying to raise the bar, branch out, and perhaps there's even an attempt at erudition. I almost get the feeling she's trying to impress someone, or maybe just herself, like she's rising to a challenge. And she succeeds, I think. This is a serious book. I've read much criticism of MP's heroine, Fanny Price, as being too prim and therefore not an enjoyable character to read. I don't see that though. Fanny's life has sucked, and I think she's reasonably, understandably reserved. The poor girl's been throughly cowed by virtually every member of her family, save her cousin and love interest, Edmund. As far as Austen's heros go, Edmund's not the greatest, not the most compelling dude. He's not a prat or anything, but you don't want to jump the guy's bones the way you'd want to Mr. Darcy. Or Frederick Wentworth. Or Mr. Knightly. Or Henry Tilney. Or even Edward Ferrars. Or Willoughby. In short, if I were teaching the novels of Austen, I'd tackle Mansfield Park last, even though it precedes Emma and Persuasion. I think it's most interesting and best appreciated when read against all her other works. I should also say that I think this is a book worth rereading. It's not an utter, cover-to-cover delight the way P&P or Emma or Persuasion is. But there's a lot going on here and more would be picked up on after a few passes, I think. Yeah, there's a lot to say about this book. I'd love to discuss it with other people who have read it. I would give this book. 3.5 stars, if it were an option. I may bump it up to 4. Oh, and the 1999 and 2007 movie versions of this book suck. Don't bother. They give you a fraction of the book.

There aren't too many anthologies out there as handy as this one. My only complaint is that it doesn't contain many complete works, so most of its exerpts are just that, and the whole thing is sort of a long advertisement for other books. That said, it does have David Foster Wallace's great story, LBJ, and lots more besides.

2006 Pulitzer Prize winning novel written from the perspective of the father of Alcott's Little Women. A little uneven but generally one of the more insightful historical novels I've read. Some of the imagery about life among freed slaves during the civil war is worth the price of admission.

An extraneous, and often lacking, anthology of intellectual masturbation from the failed anarchist Love and Rage "organization". A lot of white boy race guilt here, as well as a ridiculous article entitled "Why anti-authoritarianism doesn't make sense- yet." not worthwhile.
The perfect escapist novel when I was 12. What fun it would be to lead hordes of preteens into battle in a zero gravity chamber!
