nice.. good read, engaging characters, just for a thriller not too exciting ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/31462367 to: The Good Earth (Enriched Classics) by Pearl S. Buck

not nearly as good as I expected it to be. To be honest, I was bored. Every time I thought that I might stumble on an interesting passage it turned out to be anti-climax. And the "hero" of the story, I even forgot his name by now, was a truly uninteresting one. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/28031173 to: The Subtle Knife (His Dark Materials, #2) by Philip Pullman
bookshelves: currently-reading, fantasy
I abandoned the last world. Probably it's a great book but I now too little about Ovid and the metamorphoses to enjoy this one. A typical book to get back to at a later point in my life... once I'm older and wiser :-). The subtle knife started great, though. Pulled me in directly and sounds even more promising than the fabulous fist book of the series.


Finished it at the beginning of August. It captured me totally, very moving, very deep and truly a YA novel for thinking, critical adults. I am very curious how this plan to kill god will turn out in the last book. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/42288-vote-on-books-for-fall Smarti made a comment in the 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die group:

September: the book of Illusions
October: a clockwork orange
November: The Satanic verses (even though I have already read it, I would like to discuss some more)

Sorry for not taking part in the recent discussion but
A) I'm doing an internship and
B) I didn't care for any of the authors/books chosen

The fall selection, though, caters much more to my taste :-) ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/26516605 to: Habseligkeiten (Perfect Paperback) by Richard Wagner

not particularily good, although not brutally bad either. Just a dull little story about a man and his family caught between rural life in the German community of Romania (Banat) and the hectic life of Germany. Could have been good, but stayed mediocre throughout. ]]> http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25988932 Lady Chatterley's Lover (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition) by D.H. Lawrence
