Tom Sawyer - Mark Twain TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Genç Timaş

4.5 stars This book was not at all what I was excepting it to be, it was so much better! Talk about a fun, enjoyable read with a main character who's sarcasm, awkward social challenges and desire to enjoy her own life and relish in the moment, made for a story that was both entraining and relatable. I played band for one year in middle, but have no idea what it's like to be in band in high school, let alone the marching band, but reading Elise's story gave me more of an insight to what they do. Erin Donnie's has created such a realistic portrayal of what it's like to be apart of this club. You don't have to be a band member to appreciate Elise's story. She's a character who's fun to get to know as she struggles with wanting to step outside of her parent's goals and aspirations for her, and discover her own goals and want she wants to do. Along the way she learns a lot more about herself and what it means to be a true friend. Elise is a bright, highly intelligent character who has an amazing talent as a french horn/mellophone player, but she seriously lacks people skills. I admired how disciplined she is with her band practice, but until now, this poor girl did not know to how fun. Her story brought back a lot memories of high school and I liked the way Erin did a fabulous job at incorporating what it's like to start high school. The meeting of new friends, making a good impression, not messing up when it's your first performance with the marching band (which I have never done), trying to find your niche in life and at school as well as learning how to deal with the on going struggle with your parents who seem want to still see you as a little and not as an adult. I adore Elise's Marching Band friends. They are funny, and such a great support for Elise. I also like they're all able to relate to each other in so many ways, especially with how hard each of their parents are on them. Erin's writing is fabulous! She grabbed my attention from the get go and I really enjoyed reading this book. This is truly one of those fun, quick reads that left me feeling like I truly missed out on all the fun of Marching Band in high school. Oh, I can't forget to mention the sweet little romance that happens in the story. This is one of those realistic, clean cut and dare I say it, charming books that middle graders, teens and older YA fans will like. I highly recommend picking up this book!

Huzursuzluğun Kitabı (Mini Kitap) - Fernando Pessoa TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Can Yayınları

Discworld. Someone's taken out a hit on the Hogfather, but the show must go on, so this year Death's putting on the red suit and delivering the Hogswatch gifts himself. Every few years or so, I like to reread this in December. It's about holidays and winter, but also about that small wedge of truth where myth and belief meet. The story mostly focuses on Death and his granddaughter Susan Sto-Helit, but there are cameos by the Assassins' Guild, Foul Ole Ron's band of beggars, the Unseen University (and Hex!), and even a little Corporal Nobbs. Also features the Death of Rats and a raven with a fondness for eyeballs. If you've never read a Discworld book, then you don't understand a word I just said, but this might be a good place to start. It's familiar ground that depends more upon your knowledge of holiday tradition than of Ankh-Morpork, the setting of most Discworld books. Pratchett is known for his ability to fold fantasy and parody together in a way that detracts from neither, and his writing is funny and human. Be advised, however, that he does not believe in chapters. There is never a good place to put one of his books down, and you may find yourself reading far longer than you intended, for sheer want of reaching the end of the chapter. Four stars. Good, clean (mostly), holiday Discworld fun. Hogswatch clearly borrows from Christmas for its traditions, but the story deliberately mentions other winter holidays, as well as groups who don't celebrate at all.
