![]() ![]() They make the narrator “uneasy,” she says: “Ghosts probably lived in ghost time - time that flowed in its own strange way, somewhere completely removed from our own. The ghosts go about their mundane lives, seemingly unaware that they are ghosts. ![]() In “House of Ghosts,” a young woman encounters, well, ghosts of an elderly couple in the soon-to-be-demolished apartment of her new lover. At the center of each is a woman negotiating the quiet fallout of personal history. The five stories in Banana Yoshimoto’s collection “Dead-End Memories” - first published in Japan in 2003, it is her 11th book to be translated into English - are strange, melancholy and beautiful. DEAD-END MEMORIES: Stories, by Banana Yoshimoto, translated by Asa Yoneda ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() To be honest, I loved that scene! ahhaha! that was plain precious! ^_^ When he couldn't take it anymore, he practically threw himself to Kris when they were on a break. He was questioning his sexuality and he was going crazy with it. I'm actually amazed by North's character. Maybe the only difference is that no one wants to kill the girl in Hana Kimi. they are also room mates and the guy also felt the need to protect the girl posing as a guy. What lured me here is its striking resemblance of the plot of HANA KIMI, a japanese series. ![]() It' set to be in a very futuristic era, but then there are places wherein it's very old fashioned. This novel has a very interesting plot and setting. ✔You keep on rooting for her errrmm him and yet you want to bash HER head because SHE doesn't wanna say that she's a SHHEEEEEE!!!! ✔The girl may not be kickass, but she's smart! So you know, it makes up for her lack of strength. ✔Scenes are just soooo cute you could just squeal! ![]() ✔You get to read about an all boys school (I don't see many books with this kind of setup) ✔There's medieval times parts (historical or something) ✔A girl posing as a guy? Come on! Tell me you're not at least a bit interested in that! This is one of those days wherein I get to thank my goodreads friends again because I never would've found out about this book without them soooo. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In the beginning, his independence is rewarded. Instead of following his siblings when they all sneak out to play (although their mother has warned them that they can go out and play, but never dig holes under the fences so they can go to other yards), the titular character lags behind to observe other things. ![]() Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham, Lowrey herself (who also wrote stories about children in her home state of Texas) remained in relative obscurity until her death. While the book has outsold many other famous books such as Dr. As of 2001, The Poky Little Puppy was the single all-time best-selling hardcover children's book in the U.S., having sold nearly 15 million copies. The Poky Little Puppy is a story about five puppies of undetermined breed. The copyright was renewed in October 1969. It was first published in 1942 as one of the first twelve books in the Simon & Schuster series Little Golden Books. The Poky Little Puppy is a children's book written by Janette Sebring Lowrey and illustrated by Gustaf Tenggren. ![]() ![]() “Why you gotta be so mean, why you gotta be so willful, why you gotta be so ornery, thinking about giving that nappy, nappy hair to that innocent little child?” They pitied her hair to such an extent that they have the audacity to reproach God by asking: Sure, there were other characters who express disapproval of her tightly coiled hair-namely, members of the Heavenly choir who are present during her creation. Setting this book apart from other stories that I have read that are designed to affirm positive self-image in Black children, Nappy Hair does not present the main character as having a problem with either who she is or her hair’s texture. The true protagonist in this story is Brenda’s hair, which takes on a vivacious life of its own as Brenda’s elder, Uncle Mordecai, shares with the rest of the family at a picnic the colorful and rhythmic story of how Brenda ended up with all that nappy hair. ![]() ![]() ![]() Carolivia Herron’s Nappy Hair tells the story of Brenda, a dark-skinned girl with a massive bush of kinky, untamed hair towering above her slender frame. ![]() ![]() ![]() The book is born out of the quest to take a fresh look at the craft of the greatest spin bowler the game has seen the career of a man who oozed Aussie aggression but was guided by common sense and a remarkable cricketing mind, and was never excited by a regimented approach (read John Buchanan). ![]() Thus for anyone attempting to re-tell Warne's remarkable cricketing journey, it has to be more about the narrative than about facts.Īnd this is what Gideon Haigh, renowned Australian cricket writer and author, achieves with stupendous success in On Warne. Unlike his illustrious contemporaries Sachin Tendulkar, who has built a monk-like aura around him, and Brian Lara, who stood out in a team in decline and has willingly faded away from the eye of the cricket world - the let-it-rip master can't have enough of the public glare. ![]() While his leg-spin bowling exemplified all that is romantic about cricket, Shane Warne also made sure his actions, through a brilliant international career and beyond, were never short of drama. ![]() ![]() She is denied many of the joys of childhood. Ada’s childhood seems quite draconian as her mother is terrified that Ada will inherit her fathers bad Byron blood – so the child grows up quite alone, most often in the care of caring and uncaring nannies, guardians and governesses. Lady Annabella Byron ( nee Noel) is a well to do noble women who leaves Lord Byron and raises Ada Byron on her own. Ada was the daughter of Lord Byron the libetine poet – who it seems was a pretty awful husband and father. Ada Lovelace is still considered the first computer programmer as she was aclose friend of Charles Babbage – who is credited with designing ( albeit not building) the first computer – his Analytical Engine. ![]() A historical fiction novel the author has tried to use as much historical records as possible. A novel of Ada Lovelace Jennifer Chiaverini. ![]() ![]() ![]() I still held some back, but I let some silliness seep into the book, because I thought with a cover like that, this book had at least better make you laugh.Īgain, crazily enough, readers surprised me and actually thought it was funny. ![]() ![]() With His Banana, I finally found a way to do it. It just never felt like it meshed, so I held it back. Since I started writing, it was actually frustrating and a little strange that it felt so hard to transfer that side of my personality into my books. Anyone who knows me in real life would probably tell you that I’m an absolute goof and always trying (sometimes failing) to make people laugh. It was also a little over a month ago when I learned that I wasn’t the only person with a ridiculous sense of humor, because His Banana became my bestselling novel ever.Īside from the crazy cover, His Banana was a firm step in the rom-com direction for me. A little over a month ago, I lost my mind and released a romance book with nothing but some words and a banana on a stark-white background for my cover. Her Cherry is my newest novel and the second installment in my admittedly bizarre erotic food-themed series. ![]() ![]() Shortly after they arrived the Narrator had to go back to Woking to return the cart that he had borrowed from an innkeeper as promised. When the Fighting Machines begin to advance the Narrator runs home to get his wife to her cousins in Leatherhead. The Narrator had been anxious to know about the first cylinder because he was intrigued by it but when the second cylinder fell he was far more wary though he still believed that they couldn't overcome Earth's gravity. They open fire on the civilians with a Heat-Ray killing many including a delegation led by Ogilvy, while the others along with the narrator fled for their lives. The Martians emerged and they were revealed to be "at once vital, intense, inhuman, crippled and monstrous". ![]() ![]() The narrator and other locals gathered around the crater the cylinder had made, expecting to see men much like themselves crawl out of the opening that was slowly unscrewing itself. When the Martian cylinders landed near Woking in England, an astronomer named Ogilvy went to investigate and upon finding the crash site, the news spread like wildfire. The planet Mars had grown uninhabitable and so the Martians moved to claim Earth and wipe out the human race. ![]() ![]() The War of the Worlds is an early science-fiction novel written by H.G. ![]() ![]() ![]() Seigne 4, Holly Conte’s VHC Howitzer, 7yo m by WRS Elvis – Grennanstownview, bd. ![]() ![]() Gloroa Nolan 2, Suzanne Garrett’s Ballinaguilkey Oyster, 13yo g by Mirah’s Oyster Bandit – Urrachree Destiny, bd Barbara Walshe 3, Celine Salter’s Templebready Rocket, 15yo g by Ballymore Paprika – Gentle Jessie, bd.
