Uhm, Yeah. blah, Blah, Blah...I won't sum up or tell you what I loved or this and that. Because I loved it all. This book made me feel good, and I'm in love with Adam Wilde. I also loved that the story was short. The author didn't feel the need to write in a bunch of fill, just to make it meatier. :) :):) :):) :):) :):) :):) :):) :):) :)

This wasn't my favorite book ever. It reminded me a lot of the movie I Am Legend...the population has been destroyed by a disease, the kids are trying to find their way north where there is safety, and there are weird, creepy mutants "freaks" around. I think the flap cover made it sound better than it was. But I was intrigued and I read it fast. Wish there had been more romance and I feel like there could have been many more details to help give shape to the story.

I liked the idea of this book, but overall disliked the characters, so didn't enjoy the read. I did like that the book told the stories of people of several different generations in the same family, though.

** spoiler alert ** In days past, too long ago, I had read an inferior translation of Beowulf, which is tantamount to never having read it at all. Seamus Heaney's translation has revealed a tight and beautifully constructed study of a warrior king's life. As a young man, he kills the monster Grendel and his mother. When his lord Hygelac dies, Beowulf becomes king of the Geats (who inhabited Southern Sweden) and rules for fifty years. But then he comes up against fate: Do not give way to pride. For a brief while your strength is in bloom but it fades quickly; and soon there will follow illness or the sword to lay you low, or a sudden fire or surge of water or jabbing blade or javelin from the air or repellent age. Your piercing eye will dim and darken; and death will arrive, dear warrior, to sweep you away. In Beowulf's case, the last battle is against a dragon who is laying his people low, because someone had stolen a cup from his gold hoard. The Geat warrior goes by himself to face the dragon, while his much rewarded retainers run for their lives. What ensues is heroic and worthy of the hero. And he does find one person who helps him in his last battle. Beowulf's sword fails him and he is assaulted by the unnamed dragon, or "sky-plague" as a kenning describes him: Then the wound dealt by the ground-burner [another kenning] earlier began to scald and swell; Beowulf discovered deadly poison suppurating inside him, surges of nausea, and so on, in his wisdom, the prince realized his state and struggled toward a seat on the rampart. The pagan Vikings saw themselves as prisoners of an ineluctable fate. Although Beowulf refers to Christianity time and again, there are no Christians in the story, which takes place some time before Olaf I Tryggvason had the Norse converted from their Asatru ways. Thanks to Heaney's translation, I think that Beowulf could stand on its own side by side with the great Icelandic sagas that were to follow.

Exceedingly sad, but worth reading.

My rating is based on my memory of the book from when I read it as a sophomore in high school. It probably needs to be reread.

I read this Hamlet-inspired novel in preparation for a reading program I'm planning for this summer. It was good, but I didn't love it. I'll still keep my eye out for other Shakespeare play plot-inspired novels. I know about "the Story of Edgar Sawtelle," and am tempted to select it. Also reading Matt Haig's Dead Father's Club as a candidate. Any suggestions?
I'm reading this now without really knowing what I feel about it. The edition I'm reading is in Norwegian and also printed in 1984, so the language is... I don't know. I can't decide if I like it yet.

I have mixed feelings about Watchmen. I didn't hate it but didn't particularly love it either. Finding a little slow at the beginning, I started to enjoy it more as I got further into it. Alas, my attention span didn't hold out long enough and I was bored before the end. There was a little too much background and not enough action for me but I guess that's just personal taste.
