Yolum Aşka Düştü - Meral Kır TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Aspendos Yayıncılık

** spoiler alert ** I read this book 8 years ago, and told people it was my favorite book for a long time. By 2008, I had forgotten most of the plot, so I thought I'd get to work on re-reading it! It was very good, and, though I knew a lot about Indian history 8 years ago, I know even more now, so I was able to understand more and more of that book the second time around. The way that certain characters symbbolized certain events and countries in the history of the Indian subcontinent was so cool. And realizing that Rushdie had spent hundreds of pages setting up a brilliant symbolism without you even noticing until it walloped youover the head is just a testament to this author's skill. It's also amazing how Rushdie can craft brilliant double- and triple- entendres and just rattle them off as if he hadn't put any thought into them. I'm thinking of a lot of prophecies about Saleem "knees and nose", and the idea that you can have a father who isn't your father but still have a grandfather who is your father. It would be an understatement to say that it's a pleasure to read books by Salman Rushdie. The way he writes is just delicious. There are certainly some weird parts to this book. The chapter called The Sundarbuns is definitely one of those parts. But I liked all of it. Midnight's Children is an undisputable classic by Rushdie. Bone up on the Subcontinent's history on Wikipedia, and then get to reading this book!

Ben Bir Başkasıdır - Bütün Düzyazı Şiirleri-Arthur Rimbaud TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

I think this is the kind of book that people will either hate or love. I am not ashamed to say I belong to the latter. Honestly, I think those who enjoyed novels like Harry Potter and Twilight will immediately be drawn in to the story of Clary Fray. And don't let the fact that this book is in the "Young Adult" section throw you. This is a great urban fantasy read. The characters are well developed, the story moves along at a fast clip and it's full of surprises that you never saw coming! Clare does a superb job of drawing you in. Maybe the plot isn't completely unique but the world she created certainly is. I really found it all quite interesting. The whole concept of the shadowhunters ooze with coolness. I mean half angel, half kick butt people! It doesn't get much cooler than that. The story is full of action and yes sometimes there are things added for additional dramatic effect. I'm a real sucker for action sequences and Clare certainly delivers on that front! The author's take on werewolves was original, and I gotta say they give the vampires a run for their money which I appreciated. I figured out some of the twists but, honestly, that's some of the fun....finding the hints and feeling the satisfaction of saying YES! Score for me I got it right! Let's do a little victory dance. (insert some break dancing moves I personally cannnot do here). I really liked the character of Jace. The whole feeling about belonging has such depth, however I thought Clary would be more shocked about finding out her personal history especially with how much her mother pounded in to her that there was not such thing as magic she would resist the whole idea more. That said, I was truly enchanted by City Of Bones. I found myself completely immersed in a world where demons roam the night, where weres run a bar, vamps occupy abandoned hotels, warlocks cast spells while rockin glitter in their hip hugging jeans, fey wait tables at the best mom and pop restaurant in NYC, and the law is upheld by Shadowhunters, a race of humans blessed by the angel Raziel. Even the setting, NYC, was so palpable; it became another character in this vibrant story. I thought the Shadowhunter world was funny, sleek, dark, sexy and hopeful. More importantly, the characters came so alive for me that they jumped off the pages. I felt as though I were in the story with them as opposed to merely following along in their journey. Regardless of the types of books you prefer to read, or the characters that endear themselves to your heart, I think we all read to become inspired. That inspiration can take shape in various forms, from writing, to making a playlist, picking up a sketchpad so that the images in your mind can take shape, or simply reading a new book in hopes of falling in love with yet another story.
