Peçete Karpuz ve Maymun TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Barbara Burke

My Thoughts First: Now remember, I have not read Broken or Dirty yet... And this is my first book without any paranormal activity since I don't remember how long!!! With that being said... I can say... this book was awesome. It is an erotic novel, but it had a hint of class about the way the erotic parts were handled; which I appreciated. I feel in love with Grace. She seems like a neighbor I would have. Her personality was like that of a "real" person you would know. Her job, which she loves, is a bit strange. Funeral Director... I find myself rooting for Sam, even though he appears to be a pain in the ass as Grace calls him. The appeal of the book was really good. I did not want to stop reading, because the thoughts I had as to where the book was headed would change. I wanted to cry at some parts, laughed out loud at some, and just plain wanted to beat the sense into someone at some points. But isn't that what a great books make you want to do. The Plot: Grace meets strange (enters Sam), has wow sex and leaves. Grace then gets told she met the "wrong" stranger (enters Jack). Her life, as she thought, was normal up until the moment she met Sam. She continued to see Jack though... that is where I kinda was pulling for the poor guy. Then her life kinds gets a little crazy; broken washer machine, flooded basement, getting in a wreck with company vehicle, two employees who are falling for each other AT work, a relentless father who does want to "let go" of the business he has handed down to her, a sister who is on her case about bring a guy home to meet the family, one man she wants to bed, and the other she can take to bed without any strings. Okay, except for the last two... when have we had a day like that... To much laundry, cooking, cleaning, playing mom-wife-carpool-employee-and everything else in between - I am raising my hand. Then she meets an older man who lost his wife and he teaches her about life and more importantly - love. The Main Players: Grace - She is a doll. I love her sense of pride in her job. She wants to make sure she does better than her dad can ever imagined. Just picture trying to please your father and now picture it on top of trying to show him you can carry on a family legacy. I love her personality; she is really a quite, tame person but she does fight when she believes in something. You will see. On the aspect of how she views a relationship... I tended to want to give her my shoulder to cry on and tell her all things you would tell a friend to get them going. But she has seen death all her life; people losing the ones they love over and over. That would leave me a bit stale on love too. I mean isn't that what we all want... to find our love and keep it forever. At times, I wanted to slap her and ask her what the hell she was thinking on some of the decisions she made, but overall... it worked for her. Sam - He was a bit mysterious. At one point, early in the story my idea of him was that he was a loafer and didn't have much in life that got him going. But then the story starts to unfold; with the death of his father being the trigger point for him. We learn that he felt he never lived up to his father's images of him. He never got to prove himself to his dad; which we all know in life, - sucks. But they say the bigger the man, the harder they fall. Jack - I included Jack in here because I was kinda pulling for him. Jack is one of Grace's fellow "friends." He is the reason she met Sam. Grace teaches him about being a better "friend" and he teaches Grace about going after what you want. He is the one that made her see what she could have. The Unexpected: Things unexpected... well... I'm really thinking here... I didn't really expect to see Sam drink the way he did. He wasn't a drunk or alcoholic, but he used that as a "crutch" to his feeling about his father. Which I guess he character seemed stronger than that to me... but like I said the bigger the man, the harder they fall. Then there is the sister's rumored affair. I wasn't expecting that. You will have to read to see what I am talking about!!! The Predictable: The only thing predictable was that she worked a funeral home and you knew there would be talk of death. That really was it. Smut Factor: There really was none that. The sex scenes were descriptive... I mean this is an erotic novel... what would you expect and the book delivered. But it wasn't like in your face all the time; which was nice. The scenes were even fun. What Pleased Me: The realness of the emotions coming from Grace. She is funeral director in a small town. I grew up and still live in a small town, AND people do talk. Even people you think are you friends. So, her "habit" of paying for sex does not seem too outlandish. I mean, come on... we all know in a small town, who would want to date the person living with the dead. Men are freaky that way. And especially being that she is "the son" her father would want to take over the business, she is doing the best she know how to do. What Displeased Me: There is really nothing (even looking at the book now) that I could find that displeased me at all about it. The writing style of Megan Hart, I fell in love with. So... sorry... there was nothing about the book that I did not like. If you find something that you did not like, I would like to hear your thoughts on it, please. Cover: Can you say OMG!!! I mean... come'on!!! My hubby even commented on it... He asked if I was reading the book with the naked guy on the front!!! I said, "YUP!" I love the simple colors: white... then the background black. I love the fact that it is the hotel door that takes up the cover... leaves you wondering what is to come.

As she wrote this in the 1950's, Patricia Highsmith's literary characterization of Tom Ripley is an early, effective look into the mind of a psychopath. It is easy to see how such folks walk amongst us undetected.

Doğu Mitolojisi Tanrının Maskeleri 2 TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Joseph Campbell

There was a time when all I read by Kathryn Harrison spoke to me deeply, and this memoir was the first of those things. I now chalk that period up to needing higher dosage of better drugs. This memoir is ... all the words that have been attributed to it. Lyrical at times, provocative, sad, haunting. It is deeply troubling, more than anything, and Harrison's willingness to dive right in and put her life - and her father's - on display is what lingers to trouble me now, years after her artful prose drew me in. In retrospect, I can't help wondering what her motivation is, and I'm almost cynical enough to suggest that Harrison saw the 1990s' trend of revealing personal nightmares in poetic writing and decided to capitalize on her own. Eh. Whatever. The writing is compelling, and her unflinching look at herself humbles me. Is it an honest stance? (Does it matter?)

Peygamberimizden Hayata Yön Veren Tarifler Tespitler TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Cihan Yayınları

TI noticed the book before but didn't get excited until I saw the commercial for the movie. Unfortunately I still have to say, I'm more excited for the movie than the book. The cover art gained one of the stars in my review; the spark of originality got the other. BEASTLY is an extremely faithful modernization of the fairy tale, almost too faithful. As it is, if you've ever seen the Disney version, you already know nearly every plot point in BEASTLY. The basic story is that of Beauty and the Beast-but set in modern New York. I didn't really connect with any of the characters and the Beast's personality transformation was a little odd(randomly breaking into 19th century phrases because he read a few classic books and became less beastly?). The heavy-handed literary references and moralization distracts from the flow. Just because you compare to the Phantom doesn't mean you are him. And Lindy is not as compelling a character as I would have enjoyed. She needs more wit or cleverness to make her truly something unique

Bizarre. I loved it. I don't exactly know how to review it without just flat out summarizing it, but if you like dark humor (which I do), and a quirky story (check), then I'd recommend The Family Fang. Clever. Uncomfortable. Strangely reassuring? I don't know, just read it.

It's been years since I've read Frieda Fromm-Reichmann's books and papers, but this is one of two books that I still own. Her outlook on psychiatric illnesses might be somewhat dated, but her humanity, intelligence and common sense come through. Above all, she is a compassionate voice. And that never goes out of style. She is the therapist of the girl in the fictionalized biographical novel I Never Promised You a Rose Garden by Hannah Green/Joanne Greenberg. Loved her in that book then went on to read her real writings.

** spoiler alert ** Wow. I enjoyed this book until the ending. How could she kill Willow off? I guess I just hoped for a happy ending. The mom was trying to keep her safe but it didn't matter because accidents occur no matter what. I mean, the lawsuit gave them enough money to give Willow everything she needs to be safe and comfortable but in the end life happens. I just don't understand the message I guess.

Aura - Daniel Palmer TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Koridor Yayıncılık

I reread this story frequently as a girl. One of the most evocative and effectively descriptive books I’ve ever read. A wonderful story about a young girl who goes to live with her grandfather in the Swiss Alps. Loved the side story that takes place in town away from her grandfather as well. I always craved cheese and bread as I read the story, and there was nothing more satisfying than curling up with Heidi and some cheese & bread. When young, I didn’t understand that the goat cheese described in the book was different from the cow’s milk cheese I ate. (Now that I’m a long term vegan, I would no longer crave any animal procured cheese, but I think I’d still enjoy the story.) A worthy children’s classic. The sequels: Heidi Grows Up and Heidi’s Children were written by a different author – the original author’s translator. I enjoyed them, but they were not as pleasurable to read as Heidi.

Hilarious, enjoyable read. It's silly, sure, but I was engaged throughout. The end kind of falls apart, but I'm in a forgiving mood. Fun characters, snappy dialog, clever plot. The narrator has a Dwight Schrute-meets-Bond-villain thing going on.
