I start my reading slowly summer, that is to say my reading as an adult, after spending the year swallow (willingly by the way) children's literature and "gateway" (Teens).
Besides, one day, when I have the courage, I'll make a list of my favorites, by age group (college-high school). If it tells you.
The first of the summer is a favorite, and also a blow to the heart. In my random wanderings in the unique (but true) the large village nearby bookstore, I stumbled upon his favorite to him. I wanted to light but I'm still left to go in the first novel by a young American.
A camera on a desert island in Alaska, between a divorced father and eager to renew acquaintances and his 13 year old son. The head-to-head on a desert island is always conducive to the resurgence of the human soul, true and true, then stripped of the artifice of community living, socialization. A slow rise of madness, unless it is a slow descent into hell ... A novel that sends shivers down your back, which we refer to is really the other? Where is the catch?
reader appropriates one or the other characters, without compassion for all.
Read in one go, a blast in the sun.
Unforgettable. Really.
A little bit of Henry David Thoreau (Walden ) and Chris McCandless (Into the Wild , narrated by John Krakauer) for the ultimate experience alone.
Am I loved? Am I hated? I do not ask ... I loved, no doubt, otherwise I'll have not only spent 2 nights.
One thing is certain, it is a book that brings out intense emotions. And that's all I ask my readings.
**********************************
To change the world, after a night without reading as a lock, I attack Specials , volume 3 of the series Uglies (Scott Westerfeld), Series "gateway" for Teens. fiction novel, in a world both far and so close to us that the reader has no trouble inserting it, the ultra beauty is a must: from the age of 16 years, it was operated as an inevitable rite of passage into adulthood, according to criteria pre-defined beauty. Tall, thin, his eyes sparkling, his face perfectly symmetrical, white teeth and aligned, an iron, these are adults of this world. All? No. A handful of diehards, not made, lives in the woods behind by "ready" city dwellers.
Who orchestrates this beautiful world? Who sets the standards of beauty? operating? For what purpose?
Originally a trilogy, then came two more volumes added to it, not really a sequel, rather a kind of complement (as is The second life of Bree Tanner of Stepheny Meyer , a new parallel to the Twilight saga)
Anyway, I love. An adventure story smoothly conducted, which appeals to both girls and boys.
Book 1: Uglies
Book 2: Pretties
Volume 3: Specials
Volume 4: Bonus Extras
Volume: Uglies Secrets Guide.
For my part, I'll stick to Volume 3 ...
