Mevlana’dan Goethe’ye Sevgi Köprüsü TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Akgün Grup Yayıncılık

Payton Gritas has a pretty good life. She's a straight-A student and is organized to a fault, part of the basketball team, she gets along with her parents, and a great best friend in boy-crazy Jac. But when she learns that her dad has multiple sclerosis and her parents and brothers had been hiding it from her for many months, her world perfect world came crashing down. She is shocked and angry at her family for keeping her in the dark. Her guidance counselor decided Payton needed a focus subject to keep her mind off her dad's illness and she chose Sean Griswold--his head to be exact. Payton has known Sean Griswold since elementary school but hasn't really paid him much attention; he was just there. But what started as her getting to know her focus subject a little better is turning more into stalking... er, a full-fledged "field research" (with the help of BFF Jac) in all things Sean, not just his head. As Payton spends more time with him, she also finds herself start to fall for Sean... Sean Griswold's Head was one of my "covet" of 2011 so I had pretty high expectations for it. I'm happy to say I ended up really liking it! Payton was a great heroine--she was smart, funny and had that great sarcastic voice I love in my contemporary YA heroines. I loved the scenes between her and her best friend Jac who was a little off the wall and the opposite of Payton--Jac could have easily been too over-the-top tiresome but the author did her character just right. Jac just cracked me up and enjoyed the dialogue between her and Payton. And speaking of dialogue, my favorite scene from the book was between Payton and Sean in Valley Forge on a bed spooning (no, it's not that kind of scene--it was winter and they had many layers of clothing between them) in the guard's quarters after they played "three things" and before they got interrupted. It was the best scene with the most sweetest dialogue from Sean. He was such an adorable guy, so sweet and right for Payton. These two have known each other for a long time but they don't know each other until Payton actually started to pay attention to Sean. I really liked the progression of Payton and Sean's relationship--it wasn't the usual instantaneous love so prevalent in YA books today. My only beef with Payton was how she handled the situation with her parents, especially with her dad. I got that she was mad at them for lying to her and she was scared, but I thought her I-was-wronged-and-I'm-entitled-to-act-like-a-brat attitude went on too long. I also know that her big a-ha! moment had to do with her figuring out her feelings and I knew where her misplaced anger was coming from but still. I wanted to shake her many times I was so frustrated with her. But I guess that's the way the author intended for us to feel about her and Payton did do some growing up by the end of the book. I thought the writing and the pacing was great and I really enjoyed Payton's sarcastic voice and reading her thoughts. It was good mix of humor, sweet romance, the right amount of emotional drama and the tougher subject of multiple sclerosis--the author didn't gloss over what an MS patient goes through. Overall, I thought Sean Griswold's Head was an engaging read with a great ending.

May contain spoilers The Butterfly House follows Roberta (Bobbie) Lee living her life in the present day and flashing back to her childhood. Bobbie had a difficult upbringing having a alcoholic mother, a small shabby home and an absent father but she does have one best friend who brightens her days, Cynthia (Cincy) Jaines, she also has an absent father but her mother is fantastic and Bobbie warms to Lenora probably more than she should, both having a love of butterflies they work together on a project of Bobbie's about a new species of butterfly and together they become like a mother and daughter, this angers Cynthia of course wanting them to herself equally and not with each other. Bobbie's mother has a different view and thinks Bobbie and Lenora could be lovers. As Ruth Lee's alcoholism carries on to deteriorate, she lashes out more at Bobbie. As Bobbie's story flicks from present to past, so begins a story of mystery, love and friendship. I was recommended this book by a friend, and I really enjoyed it. I quite like mystery books, I like wanting to know what's going to happen next? and trying to come up with my own theories, I could guess a few, or had an idea about a few mysteries but the main mystery I wasn't sure. I thought the story was cleverly written especially going from 1990 (present) to 1980 (past) and matching it all up together. I really felt with the characters, I felt for Bobbie having no father, then finding out he was gay so he didn't abandon her at all, it was nice she got to live with him and have a taste of the "nice life" before Joey screwed it up for them both. I felt for her having to watch her mother drown her sorrows in a bottle everyday and I could understand why she loved Lenora so much, because she was the mother anybody would expect, she was the mother to her she never really had. And Cincy was like the sister she never had. When the first chapter mentioned Lenora in prison and Bobbie visiting her, the prison guard says, "look at her, visiting her mother's killer" I was intrigued and as I got to know both Ruth and Lenora, I could not see how this could be possible, how could this lovely woman, kind natured, loving, friendly woman kill someone? As time drew near and the fire happened I thought obviously it was a accident, but obviously Lenora wouldn't set fire to her own house, with people inside. Obviously the next suspect is Bobbie's mother who suspects Lenora and her daughter of being lovers, and what she says to Bobbie seems to confirm my suspicions but again the question asks, why would Lenora go to prison for something Ruth did? They say it was so Bobbie wouldn't know her mother tried to kill her but I had an inkling there was something more. I was still surprised when I found out that it was Cincy who started the fire and let her own mother take the wrap for her! Obviously Lenora knew all along and then it all clicked into place. It was sad to learn Cincy had cancer and I thought it was a bit cowardly of her to only tell the police the truth because she knew they wouldn't charge her because she was sick, she let her mother go to prison for 10 years for something she did and she didn't even visit her, I didn't like Cincy a lot for that! The ending was expected but still sad, Lenora got out of prison finally and got on with the rest of her life, Bobbie and her husband David got back together properly and (assuming) had their son Peter Benjamin, Cincy had a happy relationship with Rick her nurse, she reconciled with her two favourite women, her mother Lenora and he best friend Bobbie, until the end.

Myyyyy efendisi bu kitaba söylediğim şey. Gerçekten iğrenç bir şey sunmak istiyorum ve Okuyucular Digest-y "Eggers bu işte onun adım gerçekten vurur" gibi ama bu kitap bu AHWOSG AP İngilizce sınavında bir makale gibi görünmesini basitçe söyleyecek kadar topal. (Bu kitaptan zevkle nefret ediyorum - nedenini kim bilir, gerçekten.) Eggers ve Valentino'nun bu roman / bio / autobio'da ne kadar cesur ve güzel bir projeye giriştiği ve ne kadar başarılı bir başarı. Deng - doksanların sonlarından güney Sudan'daki etik çatışmalardan ve soykırımdan Kayıp Bir Çocuk - Eggers sanatı ile Sudan'dan Atlanta dairesine ileri geri hareket eden bir hikaye anlatır. Tarih dersi sizi şaşırtacak (benden farklı olarak, mülteci ve insan hakları krizinin karmaşık kökenleri hakkında eğitim almadıkça) ve Deng'in komik, derin cömert ve unutulmaz hüzünlü birinci şahıs anlatısına zahmetsizce dokunuyor. Dürüst olmak gerekirse, sondan yirmi sayfadayken verdim, ancak bu sayfalar sadece kanat kanatlarından oluşsa bile onayımı kabul ediyorum. Bir sidenote: bir aile üyesi (Atlanta yerli ve son derece zeki Atlanta'nın çalışmaları hakkında bilgili) Kayıp Boys'un "Atlanta kar amacı gütmeyen (ve kar!) Toplumda Pazartesi gecesi futbolun ağ TV'de yaptığıdan daha iyi tanıtımdan hoşlandığını" anladım. uluslararası yardım / kar amacı gütmeyen kuruluşlar ve STK çalışmaları ve az sayıdaki şanslı yararlanıcıları hakkında alaycı bir kenara bırakılmıştır. . . Bilmiyorum, ama bunun ilginç bir fikir olduğunu düşündüm. Ve bir not notu, Atlanta'da yaşıyorsanız veya coğrafyası, demografisi ve sosyal / politik sahnesi ile herhangi bir aşinaysanız, bu kitabın sizin için özel bir rezonansı olacaktır. Dediğimiz gibi "çevre içinde" bir ergenlik iddia etmek için yeterince serin değilim, ama yine de anlıyorum.
