Şiir ve Tragedya Kuramı TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

I am completely gruntled over The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks. I read this one without know much about it at all, and had sort of expected it to resemble the Ruby Oliver series. It's completely different, which threw me off for a few chapters. The mockumentary style is fantastic--I ended up having this overly earnest voice in my head as a read it, that sounded disturbingly similar to the guy who does the intros to Law and Order.. (Come to think of it, Law and Order would be way better if that guy just narrated the entire episode. Is Law and Order even on TV anymore?) Anyway... There are loads of themes that I adore about this book, including the theme of Frankie becoming as enamored with the group of older, powerful boys, because they are powerful, but I have to say, I have a huge soft spot for the pranks. Particularly, pranks of which no one would guess the instigator. Needless to say, there are aspects of the plot that Teenage Sarah closely identifies with. (Um, yeah... sorry about the quarters superglued to the floor in front of your lockers, 1994 Canby High School Varsity Football Team--I hope you were scarred for life after that incident. But, Canby High School Varsity Cheerleading Squad, I'm not at all sorry about the Pop-Its under the toilet seats in "your" restroom.) I love that E. Lockhart's books have "feminist" themes, but have a flexible view of feminism--it never feels heavy-handed and it never feels lecture-y. All around good stuff.

The Phantom Of The Opera at the Royal Albert Hall TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

After hearing so many good things about this book and the series, I picked up a copy and I have absolutely no regrets I did. It's a thrilling story that I couldn't put down. In a dystopian future, a group of boys is thrown into a space they call the Glade and forced to survive. Thomas is the last boy to join the group and together, they need to figure out the massive Maze around the Glade. Every day, the Runners go into the Maze, looking for a way out. The story was great, except for the little nagging thing in my mind that kept saying 'how does he know that?' of 'why now?'. Some things were quickly answered by Thomas, even though he was the last boy to arrive and should have the least amount of knowledge about the Maze and the Grievers. The answers were easily found and I would have liked a little more difficulty for the questions to be answered. After all, they don't have memories and shouldn't be able to answer certain questions. Having said that, I thought The Maze Runner was a fabulous book and I loved how quick the characters grew up and took responsibility for whatever they needed to do to keep everything going in the Glade. The book made me wonder about things like why boys, why these boys, who are the makers of the Maze and more of those things, and I have to say the ending of this book had me intruiged to pick up The Scorch Trials - because it's pretty.. interesting. I loved it. Dashner managed to create a world inside a world with distinctive charactaristics and great slang. While the story wasn't a rollercoaster ride in terms of action packed, the book held me thoroughly entertained the whole time and personally, I cannot wait to read the sequel. My overall rating: 4.5/5 Four and a half stars to Thomas and the Gladers and their funny slang! (this review is published on my blog, http://lvngbooks.blogspot.com)
