This book is a cross between a disney movie and the daVinci code. Not a good mix. A young street thief is saved from a life on the streets by a thoughtful chef - who takes him into his kitchen as an apprentice. The chef turns out to be a "guardian" - a wise man who keeps secrets from being destroyed by handing them down in - recipe books! The author tried to make too much of this story - corrupt gov't., hidden secrets, a young boys first love, plus a bunch of semi-true historical facts. But when the chef starts to teach the young boy some of the hidden truths - mostly blasphemous stuff about the life of Jesus Christ, I had a hard time taking it seriously.

This is really a 4.5 star book for mm... but more 5 than 4 so it got 5 stars. There was just something missing and I think it was a lack of Zane’s perspective. I would really have liked to have read more of his voice. Other than that… it was the perfect book for my mood.

Excellent book. Even better than kite runner.

There is something about these books that I always kind of hate and yet I do love much of the humourosity and joie de vivre-ery. Georgia and her first world problems often have me laughing out loud like a loon. Even when I'm trying to read quietly under the covers so as not to wake my sleep partner.

As a part of my reading goals for this year, I decided I wanted to read at least 3-5 "classic" books or books by authors I should have already read. Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison was the first of these for me in 2011. I had a really difficult time with the beginning of this book. The topics Morrison explores are really intense, particularly at the beginning of a story with no emotional ties to the characters in the first few chapters. However, I stuck with it and am glad that I did. By the time I got about halfway through the book, I was very invested in the characters and the stories of their lives. All in all, I'm glad to have read this book but I sure do wish Morrison would have gotten to the good stuff a bit faster for my taste.

The twist is cheesy, but I love the theory...what if Mr. Darcy was real?! I should reread this one.

I first read You Shouldn't Have to Say Good-bye in the fourth grade as an ESL student, struggling to learn English. A novel about a young woman's cancerous dying mother probably wasn't the best book for the purpose, but I remember how even then, with my limited grasp of the English language, I was completely moved by this book. In the novel, teenager Sarah Marrow and her mother share a deep and cherished bond -- a bond that was tested and proved unshakable when her mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer. Sarah progresses through the stages of grief and her mother's health continually worsens. They both struggle to cope, sometimes pushing away from each other only to find what they need most is each other. Eventually, both are forced to confront the inevitable. The novel is mostly painful. But that has nothing to do with the cancer itself, or even the macabre description of the mother's moment of death (and boy was Hermes descriptive.) The most heartwrenching moments were when the mother and daughter pleaded with each other -- mother pleaded with Sarah to come to grips, and Sarah pleaded with her mother to stop, even though both are at the mercy of something greater -- death. Though the novel is quite short, it packs a wallop. There are a few points in the novel that just made me break down and cry, while most of the book kept me misty-eyed. The description of the death itself is very picturesque and disturbed me for quite some time as a child. Also, the message of the novel was ambiguous and lacked focus. Nevertheless, I strongly recommend this book to teenagers and adults alike.

I really loved this book. Except for the graphic descriptions. Lost a star for that because they were so frequent.

I really liked this book. It gave me a much better understanding of WWII and how the German occupation affected the French people. The story is told from the perspective of many different people and it was a little hard to keep all the names connected to the correct character as each new chapter started. Overall, I liked it a lot and would recommend it, especially if you like that time period.
