Hilafetten Saltanata Emeviler Dönemi TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Beyan Yayınları

I love a good action-spy-terrorist-FBI-Secret-Service-double-crossing-political-thriller. There are four authors in this genre that I turn to again and again, and they never disappoint. Sorry that I can't add Brad Thor to the list. Not that it didn't start out with a brilliant, and I mean BRILLIANT crime. The kidnapping of the president was really well done. Loved it. But then, The Lions of Lucerne turned into a Nancy Drew mystery: The Case of the Missing President (plus lots of strong language and violence). The clues were so obvious as to make the terrorist kidnappers look like a bunch of rank amateurs. Each bit of evidence was so over-explained, I felt I was being talked down to. We follow Secret Service Agent Scot Harvath as he is battered, beaten, shot at, stabbed, nearly drowned, etc. He has a couple of friends who provide key clues, and one introduces him to the only other person on the planet who could figure this out, who just happens to be a beautiful woman. And, just like in Nancy Drew, during the interview of the bad guy, an odd turn of phrase turns into the key clue that helps them solve the case! Wow! Also annoying, the reader is constantly reminded (through "tell" as much as "show") of how smart, tough, strong, well-trained, quick-thinking and handsome the hero is. I have another Brad Thor book on my "to read" shelf, loaned to me by my dad, who told me this one was the better of the two. Hmm. Hard to get excited about that one...

Gives a glimpse into life during Pre-WWII Japan. It is about a young Chinese man who is recovering from TB. He is sent to the family's summer house in Japan. He meets various people who teach him many important lessons. It belongs to my cousin, Terri. I should return it. I'll get it in the mail to you! LOL!

FDD YGS Sosyal Bilimler Soru Bankası Kurs Seti - Özel Seri TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: FDD Yayınları

When I borrowed this book from the library, I thought I was getting another "how soon will it take buildings to be replaced with rainforest if mankind were to vanish". There is a book about that, with a similar title, but this is not that book. This book is nominally "what fossils and other geological evidence would we leave for future paleontologists, a million years hence?" I say "nominally", because it's really only that in the last three or four chapters. Until then it's a fascinating introduction to geology. And I say these words as surprised to see them as you are to read them. "Fascinating"? "Geology"? I've never been bitten by geology, despite years of flirting with it: friends are geologists, the great teacher at my kids' school is a geologist, there are books on geology bouncing around the house, geology is part of learning about dinosaurs which we did with the kids for a year, .... But never before have I understood the awe that geologists feel at the beauty of it. The best books, I am guilty of repeatedly saying, teach you to see the world in a different light. You'll look at something you've seen before and now you'll see moving parts or relationships that you hadn't seen before. Mud, for example, is basically water-eroded rock. The sticky sludge you scrape off your boots on the doormat was once a boulder or peak. Zalasiewicz says, "you might think of the earth as a blue planet or a green planet, but you could equally well think of it as brown: it sits, partially covered in its own decay." This mud, this eroded rock, is the sediment in sedimentary rock, it's what fossils form in. Quartz doesn't erode with water the same way other minerals (rocks) do; the little bits of quartz that don't form mud are sand I'm sure real geologists are horrified by my Play-Skool level descriptions, but it's the beauty and integration of it that I love. Geology has always been a maze of random and cryptic thisolite and thatolite minerals and Wankozoic era names that leave me cold. They name eras after places in the world where classic rocks from that time are found: Jura mountains for Jurassic, Silure tribe from Wales for Silurian, Devon for Devonian, etc. But that's geology like memorizing sequences of kings is history: it's not names and dates, it's what happened and how and why that's interesting. It's not just the typical bits of geology either: in addition to mud, the author covers the unique nature of the Earth: the crust in motion, the atmosphere in balance, the history of temperature change, the effects of temperature change on the rock record, and the likely effects of climate change. The author writes like he's an elderly English academic who loves his field and forgives himself the occasional joke and aside. And, although I never thought I'd say it, I love it too.

Sevilmek İsteyen Köpekbalığı TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Kırmızı Kedi Yayınevi

I think I am enjoying this series (just started the second) because I am listening to it on audiobook, and the different accents and intonations capture a lot that I might have missed reading it. Entertaining, slightly educational, and a bit cheesy in parts - bu thoroughly enjoyable.

This was a good, short book showing both sides of a childfree life and parenthood. She really got some candid insight from real people.

It was a bit long at times, but I really enjoyed this book and it seems particularly relevant in today's society, with all of the talk of foreign policy, religion, fundamentalism, etc.

This is one of very few books that I have picked up over and over and over again to read. The story is remarkable and full of life with every detail and turn. I got this book many years ago and I still enjoy it today.

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Okyanus Yayınları

I was hoping to learn more about Washington's private life in this book, but three-fourths (or more) of this book was about his military career during the French & Indian War as well as the Revolution and beyond. I found it hard and somewhat boring to wade through at times. Granted, Martha Washington burned their personal correspondence after Washington's death, so there went the great avenue of finding out about Washington's thoughts, tastes, etc. Of course there are some interesting facts about his life, things that I didn't know before reading this book, but not enough to really enjoy it.

Eleştiri ve İdeoloji TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: İletişim Yayınevi

It's not the sort of book that usually draws my attention, but something about it caught my eye. It's a poignant story, short and bittersweet. Though fictional it relates many of the true hardships of the people and time. Being in verse it was a quick read, succinct and poetic. Quite an interesting little window into the time, people, and place.
