Great story. Made me tear up a little in some places. There were a couple obvious spelling, grammar, and continuity errors (like, when we meet the male character Sam, it refers to him as a her). Very simple things that one would imagine Hocking or an editor would've found and fixed, but whatever. The story was great, and I loved the characters. The zombie fight scenes were awesome. Remy, the main character, deserves applause for simply being a non-whiny buttkicking female lead. I'd read this one again, errors and all.

A vivid view of WWII from a decidedly alternative viewpoint that describes, in great detail, the blunders that Britain made that led us inexorably towards the great clash of civilizations that was WWII. Great read.

"Don't judge a book by its author." Not sure that this is possible to do, particularly in the case of memoirs like this, in which the story is pretty much a direct result of the author's character. The fearless (or perhaps just foolhardy) hero of this story, Deborah Rodriguez, is known by many of her friends, family, and clients as “Crazy Deb,” due to her penchant for adventurous, dotty, often questionable decisions, but in my opinion, the author would do just as well with the name “Drama Deb.” Because really, that’s what all of her actions result in. Sure, I cannot judge too much. After all, this is a woman who willingly went to Afghanistan after the fall of the Taliban in 2001, to offer humanitarian aid. Once in Afghanistan, Drama Deb found herself feeling at a loss, dwarfed by the doctors, nurses, and therapists with whom she traveled. (She is a hairdresser.) But we all know the very human need for beauty, and soon enough, she had found her niche, giving beauty treatments and training Afghan women in the art of hairdressing. This is where the drama comes in. Objectively speaking, it appears to be the perfect storm—Afghanistan seems to be something of a communal culture, in which your neighbors and family and friends and enemies watch and discuss and judge your every move, so it’s the perfect environment for a busybody like Deborah to butt in and become involved with the various people she encounters, and their messy lives. (And if she is to be believed, pretty much every Afghan woman has a messy, complicated life.) Still, drama aside, Deb tells a pretty engaging story about her own flawed life and finding fulfillment with the work she loves, in a culture that she comes to fall in love with. The author loves Afghanistan, this is obvious, but takes no pains to hide the less pleasant aspects of this country, with its corruption, poverty, and violence. And she doesn’t sugar-coat the situation for the females of the country; most of the women who populated her story were victims of violence, manipulation, and injustice, most of it from the hands of their families. Ultimately, this was a book both sobering and fascinating, and an excellent choice if, like me, you never intend to go near Afghanistan, but would like a detailed look at what the country is like.

Read it twice (getting old is great) Good short stories but not always clear endings

The type of story a talented writer like Steinbeck could write in 10 days. Accessible, made for easy digestion for the most part, but still likable in tone and characterization. Perfect for those American high schools where students can read. Or maybe the movie version? Thought the scene in Crooks' quarters was perhaps the most poignant, significant, and meaningful. Lennie gets a little too rational and talkative there in one of the scenes toward the end.

I liked this story better than "Wicked". It has similar elements of political intrigue and activism to "Wicked" but it is painted with a more strident brush. I am a great an of Maguire and enjoy while being grossed out by his realistic (read graphic) descriptions of nearly every aspect of life. "Son of a Witch" is Liir's story and throughout "Wicked" you never really find out if Liir really is Elphaba's son. In SOW, the same lack of explanation of Liir's origins continues. It is only the very last line of the story that provides the answer in a roundabout way. Liir's journey is filled with so many of the darkest acts of man -- infanticide, police brutality, descriptions of prison/prison life, murder, rape, slavery, environmental destruction...I'm probably leaving some out...but despite all this a thread of hopefulness carries through the story. Liir, the unloved, unclaimed boy, learns about love in it's many forms. The good and the bad about the ending is that it leaves room for a third novel.

Very well-written with an exciting and mysterious plot that immediately grabs the reader's attention. However, a few risque scenes, so not for everyone.

It's amazing to me that this was written so long ago. I recommend this to my friends now because I see the same things happening now.
