Graywolf Press made a very attractive book. Eventually you stop looking at the postcards, but the writing is casual and filled with whimsy. You'll think, "I'd like to get a beer and shoot-the-shit with him." [don't you hate it when there's no picture available for the book]

Fabulous book. Everything about the story was interesting from the ethical and moral implications of medical testing to the families involved. Author's personalization of the Lacks family and what they went through made it especially touching.
** spoiler alert ** *I got this book as an ARC from Goodreads FirstReads* This book took me a little while to get into. The writing style actually changes part way into the book, which is a little strange, but the portion after the change was much easier for me to read. The writing at the beginning is beautiful- full of images that are both beautiful and unique. However, those images actually took me out of the story and seemed to slow down the pace of the book. I could tell when Simon Van Booy really started to get into the lives of his characters because the plot suddenly seemed to matter more than the pretty images- finally the book was going somewhere! And then Rebecca, the girl who seems to be the main character, dies. And that was only halfway through the novel. Talk about throwing the reader for a loop... There are 4 "books" and an epilogue- which you don't discover until you reach the end of book one... halfway through the novel. And each "book" is shorter than the previous one. This wouldn't bug me so much except that I got used to book one, where Rebecca was the main character and everything was written in 3rd person narrative. Book two switches to 2nd person narrative as Henry, who is about as depressed as can be after he and George find Rebecca dead. There's even a chunk of book two that isn't narrative at all- it's images of letters Henry sends to George. Book three continues in 2nd person narrative. In book four, Henry has finally recovered, several years later, from his misery, which is a relief partly because being in Henry's head was exhausting and because we're finally back to 3rd person narration. I guess I just felt like the format wasn't consistent enough- every change reminded me that I was reading a book, not experiencing a story. Overall, I thought the book was okay. Not a book I'm likely to pick up and read again though.

I loved the layout of this book...the chapters that were flashbacks, and then how each chapter was the same day one year later. The character development, in my mind, was spot on as well.

best enemas, worst presssure ulcers, nursing is a dynamic subjective profession. Unorganized and dry...very hard to digest as it chaotically skips around

I am crazy in love with Sandra Tsing Loh and her everywoman stories of her life in SoCal. Someday I hope to be married to a musician and eating takeout from Koo Koo Roo.
** spoiler alert ** A month ago the whole 10th grade was assigned a book Of Mice and Men. I had previously heard about it cause my cousins had read it last year. I didn’t know much about the book but I herd it was good which made me eager to it. Of mice and men was about two men named Lennie and George whose dreams are to buy a house with land and animals. Of mice and men was one of the saddest books. When I read this book I wanted to cry. I would definitely say this book was a let down because I thought that the ending was going to be sweet and everything was going to end well but in fact it broke my heart I loved the book but hated the ending. I wish it would end differently because it would have been an away better book. Through out the book Lennie Geroge are always together. Lennie is the one who causes all the problems and George is the one who saves him from getting in trouble. Lennie never listens to George when he says stay out, so that causes them to always have to run away from the trouble Lennie causes or they will be killed. If it wasn’t for Lennie being so forget full and f he listened to what George said then they would have been able to fulfill their dream and get that house with the animals. The book definitely would have been better. Overall the book was great and I could relate to it because I am always looking out for my friend. I thought that the book overall was excellent but I’m still going to stay strong on the ending. If it was a different ending then I would of loved the book but because of the ending and so many deaths in the book it made me upset and mad. But overall I loved the book and its concept.

According to my Kindle, 50% of this is the actual book. The other half is notes on notes, acknowledgements and credits.

In this biography, author John Bankston has managed to make the rather sexy career of actress Alyssa Milano sound squeaky-clean. Even while referencing interviews in Maxim and Stuff magazines, Bankston has done quite a bit to clean up Milano's image. While useful for it's intended purpose, which I assume is Elementary age kids doing a book report, this is not an in-depth study. I doubt anyone expects it to be. Interestingly, though other books in this series include a complete filmography, Milano's is "selected." Also, I was not aware that Milano was running a big campaign to stop celebrity internet porn and I question that information being included in a book geared towards children. As always, an extra 1/2 star to any book that references Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which this does twice.
