I Like this book but the 5th and 6th graders of today don't like it. I'm showing my age.

It's been a while since I read the first novel and I was happy to learn that the library was going to buy the second book. It took me a while to remember what happened in the first book, and the relationships within Rue's circle of friends. This is a decent book, and it is quite dark, which seems to fit Naifeh's illustrative style. Though sometimes it turned me off, or made it hard for me to recognize some characters. So, yes, a decent book, one I'm glad to have borrowed instead of bought. Also, it was a quick read, so I didn't feel a loss of time or regret over the time spent reading it, like I do with some other horrid books or movies I watched.

When beginning The Tudor Secret I believed this book had so much potential. Author C.W. Gortner was about to have me embark on a journey to learn of what life might have been like for a spy in Walsingham and Cecil's high intelligence systems during the reign of Edward VI. It was a dangerous time for Princess Elizabeth and also an extremely interesting time to read on. I was first excited and the first few chapters proved impressive. Our hero, Brendan Prescott, travels to Whitehall to serve Northumberland's dashing, but cruel eldest son, the infamous Robert Dudley. All the Dudleys were ruthless and it was refreshing to read a story that would portray Dudley as something far less innocent that just Elizabeth's famed "sweet-heart." Of course the story was playing along- I even dismissed the fact that Elizabeth came to Whitehall to see her ailing brother, who was instated in Greenwich. Mary was the one who had been famour for making the trip to see Edward, which was mentioned in the book, however there is no historical account that Elizabeth to went. But then that's what makes the book fiction- the ability for writers to twist it to their own liking- so I left it. In no time, Prescott finds himself in dangeous situations and is later recruited to join the intelligence service to protect Elizabeth- to become a spy. So this quickly caught my attention- I was intrigued. In fact the story, though wavering for what I hoped to be four stars to three, maintained a good story-line up until after the part when Elizabeth sees her brother in Greenwich. Now, nothing was perfect in the events leading up to this. Prescott, despite being told in his perspective, is extremely undeveloped. In fact all the fictional characters in this book were and I always hoped a historical figure would come in whenever it was just the fictional characters. But the story itself was interesting enough. However after Elizabeth saw Edward, who was slowly being poisoned to keep alive, things began to become a little bit out of control. In just moments the poisoner- Mistress Alice who was Prescott's nurse before- enters. Prescott sees that she defiled- her tongue cut out- and her entire youth carved out of her. And then Elizabeth has to escape before she is found, leaving Prescott to fend off the formidable Lady Dudley who at this point enters. He manages to escape death, in a very unlikely atmosphere, and somehow is found by Elizabeth's hound Urian. This section of the novel saw mostly fictional characters- Prescott was nursed back to health by Peregrine, the stable boy, and Mistress Stafford, one of Elizabeth's ladies carved from Gortner's imagination. The story began to de-wind furiously at this point. Prescott has to find Lady Mary Tudor before Robert Dudley's men get to her. He manages to make it time and is sent back to deliever messages from Mary. He eventually, after escaping death a few more times, makes it to Hatfield- home of Elizabeth. I was extremely disappointed at the outcome and was absolutely exhausted from having taken on such a insane read. I suppose the next book will see Prescott as a spy during Queen Mary I's reign, but I highly doubt I'll be picking that one up.

This is a series that seems to get better with each new book. Ms. Barron has an exceptional grasp of the world of Jane Austen. In this mystery, she combines Jane's Regency world with the echoes of Chaucer's medieval world of pilgrims to Canterbury. Jane's brother is the magistrate for Canterbury, each chapter begins with a quote from the Canterbury Tales, and the cast of characters reflect several of Chaucer's well-known pilgrims and have their own tales to tell the reader. Ever observant and clever, of course, Jane solves the mystery.

Too pomo for me. Gave up, lost interest, frustrated with the meandering. Plus what she considers to be "central questions" I...don't. And find rather boring by comparison to some other questions.

An interesting and light book about Indian culture through their myths and tales. There is a little introduction about the country, that for me, was as much interesting as the myths themselves :) And although it is listed as a book for children, it is perfectly suitable for adults who doesn't know much about India and its religion. Greatest thing: The images of paintings and sculptures are just beautiful!
