In addition to the brave, level-headed Cinder, the fiery Scarlet, and the sweet, intelligent Cress, we now have Ms beautiful and crazy. In Winter, I loved the title character so much. Lots of funny and touching dynamics, lots of great friendships to remind us that romance isn't everything. I also love how far the relationships have come. She gets the amount of each just right, changing up enough to keep it surprising and exciting, but slotting in many parallels to the original stories that often catch me by surprise and make me smile. I've come to the conclusion that I really like how Meyer balances retelling with the traditional story. I was a bit concerned seeing as I generally think any YA book over 500 pages feels too long, but I needn't have worried. You know, I actually checked and this is the longest YA book I have ever read at over 820 pages, the second longest being Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix at 766 pages. And this longass final installment was a heart-pounding, fast-paced finale. After finally giving in and picking up Scarlet, even though I hated Cinder, I just haven't been able to get enough of this series. The last few weeks have been a whirlwind of Lunar Chronicles. “She was prettier than a bouquet of roses and crazier than a headless chicken. The only thing stopping me from immediately jumping into book #2 ( Three Trials ) is that it’s scheduled to be buddy read in September! I’m hoping we see the four anti-heroes develop distinct characters, I found Gage to be instantly forgettable and at times Kai and Jude felt too similar. Yet somehow I thoroughly enjoyed every single chapter, paragraph, line and word. It doesn’t have the greatest world building or the most complex of plots and whilst it talked a lot of sex it didn’t really have much action for a reverse harem book. Once picked up this book somehow buried itself under my skin and I didn’t want to put it down. I was impressed by the quality of characterisation, the intriguing plot and the snarky humour demonstrated by our heroine Keyla, who’s sole perspective it is written from. I’ve not read the author before but this was chosen as our group PNR buddy read – possibly in honour of her recent passing.

At first, I expected Woolf to personify characteristics of nature as many offers do. From the first page, each sentence is carefully crafted to describe details that may have normally been overlooked. Word choice plays an incredibly important role in understanding Woolf's novel. The Waves challenges the reader to step outside the realms of comfort and think beyond conventional writing to appreciate its giving nature. In result, she creates a dream-like aura, following the narrative of six individuals from childhood to old age. Throughout the novel, Woolf steps away from traditional writing forms and explores the possibilities of creative prose. Written by Virginia Woolf, the book echoes her poetic style of writing, standing as one of her most revered works. Written in 1931, The Waves 's unique structure and delivery establishes its place in history as a memorable piece of literature. Hurricanes Hailstorms Tornadoes Winter Storms Floods Fire For more.

Along the way, Kaplan and Marris examine how the novel's original allegory might resonate for a new generation of readers who have experienced a global pandemic. Through these pages, they find that their sense of Camus evolves under the force of a new reality, alongside the pressures of illness, recovery, concern, and care in their own lives. Kaplan's chapters explore the book's tangled and vivid history, while Marris's are drawn to the ecology of landscape and language. Many found in it a story about their own lives-a book to shed light on a global health crisis.In thirteen linked chapters told in alternating voices, Alice Kaplan and Laura Marris hold the past and present of The Plague in conversation, discovering how the novel has reached people in their current moment. Surrounded by terror and uncertainty, often separated from loved ones or unable to travel, readers sought answers within the pages of Camus's 1947 tale about an Algerian city gripped by an epidemic. States of Plague examines Albert Camus's novel as a palimpsest of pandemic life, an uncannily relevant account of the psychology and politics of a public health crisis.As one of the most discussed books of the COVID-19 crisis, Albert Camus's classic novel The Plague has become a new kind of literary touchstone. |
