As with all of Ferber's short stories you never want them to end. I find that her short stories are very different than many in that they read as though they could easily be made into full-length novels. Ferber is a lost gem!

I recommend this book to anyone interested in what Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, or general 'liberation' or 'New Age' is about. Hui-Neng is a fantastic character, more so for his simplicity, his accomplishment, his directness, and the fact of his being a real person. His account of his life and enlightenment, and those who seek but do not attain has something for everyone, the vain, the proud, the stoic, the passionate... His view of Buddhism was welcome to me because, as he says, we find Buddhism in the world, not apart from it, for without the world there is no need for Buddhism and to run from the world to find enlightenment is to look for a bird's nest at the top of a ladder, all the while wondering where the leaves and branches are. Hui-Neng is right up there with Nagarjuna and the buddha known as 'Buddha' in terms of what they offer to us, but he is so lowly in his message and emans that he may as well be our next door neighbor. Thomas Cleary is also one of my favorite translators of literature like this and he maintains a stylistic consistency that lends accessibility to hos translations yet remains transparent so as to not interfere with the translated work.

A comedy of errors, lessons from 1930's mysteries, atrocious Victorian art, imminent destruction of the space-time continuum, boating on the Thames, a spoilt cat, seances and jumble sales; to say nothing of the dog.

Very fun to read a story set in my hometown of East Providence! Ron McLarty grew up in E.P. I had the honor of meeting him and having my book signed! Great Fun!
I loved this book, read it during a beach weekend, but no one I ever recomended it to could finish it. I found it totally compelling.

I picked this up for super cheap at a local bookstore.... I'd read much of Poe's work before this book, but when I actually had EVERYTHING to sit down and read... it was wonderful... it took me to a time of velvet and brocade, of smart dressers and candlelit evenings. I've always had a soft spot for Poe. The hug he really needed and never got spawned a brilliant mind.

I give it to all the punk rock kids in my classes who don't really know who the New York Dolls or mc5 or the Stooges are.

Read my complete review on Book Exhibitionism! My Opinion I’ve read this book more than two years ago. So why did I decide to read it again? Well, it turns out Patricia has never read any work by Holly Black. EVER. I mean, I LOVED her Spiderwick Chronicles! Valiant, Ironside, and Tithe- meh, not so much. But The Curse Workers is a series that I loved, so I decided that I needed to reread it and write a review to convince Patricia! (And okay, I still have to read the third book, and I needed a refresher.) So I am gonna be writing a back-to-back review of White Cat and Red Glove, and I loved both books. I realize that this is going to be spoilery for those who haven’t read the first book yet, so I’ll keep it to a minimum. First, plotwise- both rocked. White Cat and Red Glove are both murder mysteries, in a sense. But they are much more than that- they both have suspense, murder, action, humor, romance- and of course, cons. The pacing of the plot is pretty fast too. Cassel just discovers a problem, when another one pops up, which is more often that not life-changing. These books have more than one main storyline too! Multiple ones are woven into it, major ones, minor ones, interconnecting with each other, adding to the mystery, suspense, and intrigue! Each book has its own particular plot, but I don’t wanna go into it and spoil it, because I don’t like spoilers in reviews, so just trust me when I say they have captivating plots. And the characters? They’re pretty kickass. Cassel is… complicated. He’s bad, born into a family tangled deep with the Zacharovs, a crime family, but yet, he wants to be good. He’s sarcastic, snarky, loyal, smart, cunning. He’s the perfect mix of bad boy and bad guy. And his brothers too- Barron and Philip, are freakin’ cool older brothers. But at the same time, they’re the worst brothers one could ask for. Am I confusing you? Good, because I myself am confused. Holly Black did such a great job drawing complex characters, strengths, weaknesses, flaws and all. Lila though- okay, I have mixed feeling about her. One scene she’s being all sweet, or kick-ass, but then, she usually annoys me. Hopefully, my view on her will change soon. These books are also filled with- what else?- cons! I know, I know, crime isn’t a good thing, and so is deception, but admit it, its pretty darn cool. The cons Cassel pull off are brilliant, and I never see them coming. There are so many twists and turns, and he always has a card up his sleeve, just waiting to surprise us with a trick we never see coming. Seriously. A small part of me wishes that I was part of his family- they really do put the fun in dysfunctional... Read the rest of my review on Book Exhibitionism!
