This is a hard book to review: it will definitely not be everybody's cup of tea. I had started it once years before, then set it aside, and finally read it at a point in my life when I had the time and the patience. It is massive! But I've never read anything at all like it. It's about America and Americans, Time, Fantasy, the 19th Century, and lots more. Ultimately I found it to be a fascinating, provocative, and important work of American literature. At this point in time the 1957 MGM movie adaptation is more famous than the source novel. That's a pity. The movie is interesting in its own way, although its really not very good. And it barely begins to capture the scope of the novel; its plot follows the novel's outline in only the most cursory fashion. The novel RAINTREE COUNTY is a challenge, for its size if nothing else. But, for me, it remains one of those handful of books that crept into my psyche and changed what I thought a book should be.

What a week! Read Jance's 20th J.P. Beaumont and Sanford's 21st Lucas Davenport. Both authors are as good or better than ever. Fun to see Lucas as a rookie who, even then, couldn't do it by the book. Wonderful series that I may actually read through again someday.

I read this last night in less than two hours. So that's a bonus. Overall, though, not nearly as good as Feed, which I really like.

Book Review: Queen Bees and Wannabes by Rosalind Wiseman She is a slut. She is trying too hard. What is she wearing? He is desperate for attention. He is so dumb. Ugh. These phrases are all too common in the teen world. Between the ages of twelve and eighteen years, teenagers’ worse critics are themselves—along with the other three hundred or so students that go to their school. Rosalind Wiseman’s Queen Bees and Wannabes is a nonfiction book that guides parents and teens alike through the obstacles of the adolescent world. Wiseman is an internationally renowned expert on children, teens, parents, bullying, and social justice. Her knowledge and expertise evidently comes through the story with the critical thinking she expresses on the subject. The story primarily focuses on girls, cliques, and social status. Wiseman explains that these three things are all intertwined. What girls say and what they do can all be traced back to these three things. Wiseman makes undeniable connections and fosters deep discussion that compels me to agree with her thesis. Girls deeply want to fit in. Being considered “out” or “not fitting in” can mean several things according to the book. Girls who are not popular, who have a negative reputation, who do not fit a preconceived image, or who are just simply different can earn them the title of being “out”. Attempting to fit in or increasing your social status is the biggest theme that is presents in this book. My reaction right off the bat was that the stuff that Wiseman was describing is quite true. “Most girls are obsessed about their looks…” (76). This was one of the many quotes I found myself nodding my head in agreement. Girls are the most self-conscious beings in the world. Many of us constantly look and compare ourselves to other girls. It is no secret us girls have many insecurities. My nose is too big. My thighs are too fat. My skin is so terrible. There is always something we do not like about ourselves. This is quite true for everyone as a matter of fact. No surprise in that. What does strike me though, is how something as simple or trivial as fitting in means so much to us in our adolescent years. It may be true that this desire may dim down over the years, but in middle school to high school, it is the hot topic. Wiseman does a great job interweaving and expressing the teenage angst in this. Throughout the book she lays out quotes from real girls and boys that have taken in her Empower classes. “’I should be what other people want me to be. I should act how they want me to act or else I won’t have any friends. Jane, 18’” (127). As a side note, Empower classes are essentially where Wiseman discusses the topics she has in this book to girls and boys ranging from middle to high school. With all this talk about teenage girls and their antics, Wiseman does a good job of not forgetting the parents in this situation. At the end of every chapter the author outlines a What Can You Do section where she gives advice to parents on how to react, handle, and deal with the situation or issue their daughter has. This was quite an effective way to include the parents. It makes readers know that girls do not have to deal with the things they are dealing with by themselves; they will always have someone to talk to no matter what. All in all Wiseman does a fantastic job explaining the issue of fitting in which is the predominate theme she outlines throughout the book. The tactics she uses were effective in the sense that it was organized, it provided real world examples, and it made sure to include everyone. While this was a nonfiction story, it was still interesting to read. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in making sense of the complicated world of adolescence.

Angela C is just so gifted with literally fabulous writing. Her stories just lift you into these other worlds...sensual, terrifying, beautiful. y'know.

Pictura lui Iacob Lazăr mi-a dat sentimentul unui peisaj al ruginii melancolice, a unui peisaj doar sugerat prin culoare. Obiectele nu au trecut inca prin individuatie, ele nu au o structura clar delimitata in spatiu. Impresionează modul în care culoarea primeşte o mare forţă de sugestie. Peisajele sunt parcă triste şi în general obscure îndemnând la meditaţie. Uniformitatea lucrărilor creează o neclaritate aparentă, de un romantism melancolic. Atunci când renunţă la monocromatisme tabloul aduce prospeţime. Îmi plac foarte mult şi lucrările în tuş.

Decided to try another of his after the Book Thief. This is completely different, but really am enjoying it so far. Much more of what I would expect from a young Aussie author.

Loved it! The artwork is so beautiful, it gripped me from the very beginning. I'll definitely be reading more from the same mangaka.

Here's where my ignorance and intolerance really gets to shine. I really enjoyed the entire sword and the stone portion of the book. I managed to make it through the next couple of sections while gradually losing steam, and once it settled on Lancelot, I threw in my chain mail. Don't get me wrong (ok, get me wrong) I really enjoyed almost all of the characters (including lancelot) and most of the events should have been exciting, but the first bit was so silly and fun while maintaining a strange amount of seriousness. It really caught me, and it slowly trailed away from there.
