Yol TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Ceren Yayıncılık

** spoiler alert ** This was very slow. It was boring in some parts, and a lot of the technical and geological language went right over my head. I had two big problems with this book: 1. The Heroine. She was pretty cool, up until she got married. And then she degenerated into the whole 'I'm going to be a brat and deliberately put myself in danger because I have a point to prove' She made a lot of TSTL decisions. 2. There wasn't enought background info on the hero/heroine's past. Aunt Sophia told Erik that Christine never knew he'd asked her father for 'her hand in marriage' and that he thought she rejected him, and that's why he married her cousin. But this was never brought up again, especially not with Christine, so there was no understanding or closure in this area, which annoyed me. It was also stupid to bring it up in the first place if the author never intended to expand on it. Note: Aunt Sophia, regularly became Aunt Sophie instead, and one of the servants was either Hampton, or Hamilton depending on the mood. (Whoops) In real life, the hero's relationships with his scum of the earth mother, and the asshole who made his life hell would never have been resolved, and I was pissed off that they were. I was also pissed that everyone was so gentle with his sister, who was a brat and just made life that much harder for everyone. While I did like the hero in this, he did have his weak points, and none of the rest of the characters (except the seven year old daughter) were particularly likeable. Unlike Christine, I think Elizabeth got everything she deserved for being such a brat, and overall heinous person to everyone in her life, while she was alive. The murder mystery was hard to follow, and didn't make a whole lot of sense. And there was no real chemistry between the hero and heroine, so I didn't really care either way if they were together or not, although I will admit to being annoyed that the just couldn't seem to catch a break cause of their idiot neighbours. The magical ring is a plot device I've seen before, but unlike Tempted By the Night, this seemed contrived, and wasn't well worked. This is the first Melody Thomas book I've read, and I doubt I'll read another. I'd give it a 2.5 rating.

Game of Thrones Set (6 Kitap) - George R. R. Martin TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

An interesting and intricate mystery. I was torn between rushing ahead to see how the situation was resolved and rereading passages simply because I enjoyed the writing style so much.

this is a very scientific book...lots of long words. it does bring up some valid and interesting points that further validate my no-animal diet choices. although this guy wants to take things to extremes and totally take out salt, sugar and oil. i mean oil!? come on dude. im abstaining from bacon and string cheese, throw me a freakin' bone. bottom line: pick and choose what works for you and your lifestyle.

Yüreğimde Rabbim - Muhammed Bozdağ TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Yediveren Yayınları

Great book to show children how being different is better than trying to copy someone else. It shows how having different thoughts, ideas, and even the way we dress differently makes who we are and that they should embrace and love being themselves.

Peder Brown’un Bilgeliğinden TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Alfa Yayınları

Braving Home sounds like the title of a survivor’s memoir, so I approached this book cautiously. I’ve got nothing against survivors’ memoirs (Morbid Curiosity magazine stands as testimony to that), but I started reading Braving Home in the middle, picking the essay that most appealed to me, figuring that I could skip the rest if needed. After that first essay, I was hooked. Halpern’s description of sitting on the lanai in the dark Hawaiian evening, watching the lava flow all around him, guaranteed I’d read on to see where else he would venture. My initial interest was piqued by the locales Halpern visits: a bed-and-breakfast in the midst of an abandoned subdivision on the shoulders of an active volcano, the canyons of Malibu — “wildfire capital of North America.” The only omission I found in the book was when he explored an isolated high-rise built by the U.S. military in Alaska which has become a self-sustaining town — and Ballard’s book wasn’t mentioned. Very disappointing, but a minor point. Beyond the locations, I grew curious about the people inhabiting these out-of-the-way places. First of these was a gentleman living in a trailer on the site of Princeville, North Carolina, the first free black town in the country. Princeville sits on the floodplain of the Tar River, regularly wipes the town off the map. Despite that, Thad Knight — 72-year-old son of a sharecropper — moved back as soon as the floodwaters receded and began to rebuild his home. Halpern’s curiosity is about what drives a person like that. Why would anyone choose to stay in a place that might kill him? What about the notion of “home” that ties a person to a piece of ground, come what may? Halpern does remarkably well at leaving himself out of his stories. Even though he is the viewpoint character, Halpern doesn’t seem interested in telling us about himself. His focus is on the people he meets. Still, one has to marvel at a young man who drives out to a often-flooded town, planning to camp without checking the weather forecast (it called for rain), and ends up sleeping in a total stranger’s spare room for a week. Halpern’s hunger for home — and desire to get the story — require him to time his visits during the height of the danger: hurricane season on Louisiana's Grand Isle or Malibu in August. While he doesn’t seem like anyone who might be useful when the wildfire comes, he does appear to be a good listener. Braving Home demonstrates that he’s a good storyteller, too.

Aslan ve Unicorn TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Historical fiction with lots of fluff added. Like the Sopranos on tv. Not as good as Jeremy Irons in The Borgia's on HBO. Lots of sex. I did continue to read it until the end.

20. Yüzyılda Batı Sanat Akımları TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Sel Yayıncılık

I got superduper into this poet when I was twenty. I love that some of his poems are so explicitly sexual, and others so religious. He also seems so sure about faith and redemption at one moment, and totally full of doubt the next. In this collection, you'll find a portrait of an incredibly thoughtful, passionate, and frequently conflicted man.

Toplumsal Tarih Dergisi Sayı: 136 TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Tarih Vakfı Yurt Yayınları - Toplumsal Tarih Dergisi

Cole and Olivia meet by accident when he stops to buy some Mentos at an airport kiosk. Olivia was working the register and the guy she was waiting on was being rude. Cole stepped up to ask him to be a little nicer and received a punch in the face for his efforts. When he opens his eyes he finds Olivia hovering over him trying to find out if he is okay. They don't find out much about each other that day, all they know is that they each received a jolt (unbeknownst to each other) when she touched his face. He is a pilot, so she sends a note to the airline to find out how he is. Meanwhile, he stops back by the kiosk to try to see her - only she was just filling in there for the day, it was her normal stand. But, as Fate would see fit, he does end up finding her and he asks her out on a date. They hit it off really well, but there are a few things standing in their way. He is a pilot based out of Chicago. He shot to fame a year earlier when his copilot had a hard attack and he landed a plane in a blizzard and then gave the guy CPR until paramedics arrived. Since then he has been on the cover of many magazines and has women throwing themselves at him. She is a 27 year old business student, still living at home and trying to work her way through school - in a major that she hates. She is really an artist at heart but doesn't have the self-confidence to pursue it. She also has an agoraphobic mother who shops excessively online and TV. They begin this relationship and both admit fairly quickly that it is different from anything that either has experienced before. Olivia has a lot of doubts about Cole's feelings though, especially the way they seem to run into old girlfriends where ever they go. Cole, sensing that Olivia is a little skittish, isn't entirely truthful with her about all the women in his life and so doesn't tell her about an old girlfriend that he calls "Nutty" Natasha. Well, good intentions puts a definite crick in this relationship. I did enjoy this book and really wish that I had a pilot with me when I flew to let me know what all the noises and bumps were about! Olivia had never flown before, so when Cole took her on a trip he told her everything that was going on. (I don't care for flying - so this would be great!) Cole and Olivia were fun to get to know and I liked the way that Cole encouraged Olivia to follow her dreams and to give her the space and time to do just that. Warning - book does contain a lot of sex scenes.
