A lot of this book is common sense type stuff, but it is a quick read and we can all use reminders from time to time.

I've never really understood popular, major award-winning novels. The type that have all kinds of weird characters, at least one incidence of incest, rape, or bestiality (seriously! all of them!), and pompous in-your-face symbols that scream from the pages as you're reading. There are two types of these kinds of books: the enduring kind, such as Beloved, that it feels so many people have read, and the temporary kind, that circle around the subway reading lists, are NY times best sellers for about a month or so, maybe make it to Oprah, and then disappear, just like that. Anyway, to the point. Beloved is a book that comes with a lot of baggage. It's considered a contemporary classic, it has won the Pulitzer, and you can't be in a room and say "Beloved" without at least two people turning around and going, "OMG! I looove that book! So amazing!" All that just puts so much pressure on a person to like it. I tried to, and partially succeeded in doing so. Having read Toni Morrison's work before and being a not-really fan, I decided to read Beloved because of hearing so many rave reviews of it. I like heavy books, and a book centered on African American slavery seemed interesting enough. Unfortunately, I did not appreciate the magical realism, which turned out to have a large part in the book. Magical realism seems like taking the wimpy way out to me: you aren't writing realistically, but you aren't exactly being Sci Fi either. I didn't find myself connecting to the main characters of Denver, Sethe, or Beloved, and I am not sure if you are supposed to. Beloved seemed a bit stark to me, devoid of the emotions you would expect from a book centered on such subjects as death and slavery. I couldn't quite decipher what characters were feeling at important parts of the book. I liked the plot of the book however, although parts of it actually reminded me of Uncle Tom's Cabin, which I read in 6th grade (dorky, yes). If someone approaches the book from a purely literary standpoint, and dives in looking specifically for literary themes, I am sure they would be overjoyed with this book. I was looking more for a satisfying read, and I can hardly blame Beloved for lacking this.

Tired of watching students fight over being first in line, first to raise their hand, first to do anything? Well, this humourous tale from Lester (a favorite author of some teachers) shows the not so good side of being first.

I had somewhat hight hopes for this, but it disappointed. It's riddled with Australian idioms, which I found distracting (not because they were hard to understand, meanings were easy to glean from context, but because it made the writing feel choppy and informal). The main characters, no, I take that back, all of the characters were infuriatingly short sighted and therefore difficult to relate to.

As the companion story to Oryx and Crake, it undid all the intrigue and thinking poins that book presented. Helped with a heaping dose of environmentalist preaching and hippy arrogance, this was a pretty dull read that also extended to ruin the original book, Oryx and Crake. Probably ok if you read this one on its own.

Great beginning, but the setup doesn't payoff in the end. The scares are somewhat weak and overall the novel is a pretty-packaged watered-down version of Koontz.

Eric Carle's books are classics. Mostly pictures. Well done.

Beautiful, funny, and sad. A small story.

As well as being a good adventure read, it's a commentary on menopause and changing self-image. I also love whitewater rafting and devour any adventure books on the subject.
