I discovered Raymond Carver about a decade ago and have borrowed some of his books from libraries. I recently purchased four of his books. I love his style of writing... the short stories, poems etc. The short story, "Where I'm Calling From" is one of my all time favorites. I think that I am going to make it a habit to read a Carver story or poem every day.

** spoiler alert ** I am both loving and hating this series all at the same time. Loving it because I adore Jace's personality, wit, and sarcasm; Magnus's over the top personality and dialoge; and Clary's determination and loyalty to those around her. Hating it because Simon is the most annoying character I can think of at the moment (until his last scene with Clary that is - thank god one of them realized that reason was certainly reason enough to end things between them), Simon and her's ridiculous relationship - you don't stay with someone when you know you don't love them like that, duh! Finally all the secrets! I swear with every chapter most questions are raised than answers given! Yes that is a sign of good writting and will keep my reading but it doens't mean it annoys me any less! I do still absolutely love the character of Valentine! He's is still completely hatable, although his complete 'evilness' does make him pretty predictable. I think everyone (except for Imogen who was just deluding herself) knew he would never give up the Mortal instraments for Jace. It was awesome to get to see ito Valentines mind a bit more too. The fact that he doesn't think he is evil but is right is pretty intresting and throws a new spin into his decision making process. The fact that he sees himself as a "patriot" and considers himself right just made him 10 times more dangerous than anyone thought he was. Oh and the last scene with Clary and Jace made me want to throw the book across the room! Again I wish their characters were older in this series!! Besides I am really starting to think they aren't really siblings in a way. Maybe they are in a literal sense, but I don't see it as mattering much in the end. I just have a feeling there are outside forces (as a result of V.'s experiments on them) that will allow them to be together. Like they are actually the reincarnations of the angel Raziel or something and split his soul or something crazy like that that will explain why they are like magnets with one another. Oh well, we'll see. I don't think I will be dissapointed by this series, and will most likely read it again...but who knows, I haven't gotten to the end of City of Glass yet! ********* September 2009 - I am now listening to the audiobook for this novel as I have a hellacious commute to and from work. I am still really enjoying the plot but never did I realize while reading the actual book just how many similies, metaphors, and adjectives Clary uses. Every single monster, place, and action are described to a T and a lot of the time I feel like she must have been writing with a thesaurus in her lap. I don't know how I read this the first time without noticing but its driving me a bit crazy this time around since I have to listen to it and not just skim ahead.

Hot as hell and ready for more!
Read some of the reviews. Yes, it reminds me of the firm. Young associate trapped in what seems to be an impossible dilemma. Instead cow towing to the evils of the easy way or losing ones independence to witness protection, the hero finds a way out of an impossible circumstances. True this may seem Capre-esque, but if we to look at ugliness we might as well watch CNN, Fox, or TMZ. Grisham's heroes remind of Agent 007 James Bond. Sure, there was Sean Connery and Daniel Craig. But I think those that don't like Grisham's characters fall in the Roger Moore Pierce Brosnons. Either way, in the genre of Grisham, I am still buying

This book does a really good job of exposing the true cost of the war, the way lives have been forever altered or ended. He doesn't have an agenda to push. I was fascinated to read first hand, casual conversations involving many names that are heard in the news, the candid nature is refreshing.

My choice to read this book was not based on the appeal of its description. In fact, I'm pretty sure I would have not read it at all, except that it had been recommended. I'm glad I listened. What a beautiful, beautiful piece of art.

The 15th Inspector Rebus mystery, this one is my personal favorite of the lot. Featuring racist thugs and political refugees sharing the same housing estate, this mystery goes into the heart of modern Scotland (and Europe) as asylum seekers try to integrate into societies that are not welcoming.
