Arabian Rihanna rated a book 2 of 5 stars مهزلة العقل البشري by علي الوردي read in March, 2013	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
يدعي الكاتب في البداية بأنه ليس بصدد الدفاع عن نفسه وعن كتابه السابق، وإذا به يفعل ذلك حرفيا. تبدو مرارة الكاتب جلية منذ الصفحات الأولى من الكتاب بسبب ردود الفعل التي تلقاها كتابه "وعاظ السلاطين"، والتي اختلفت من كتب ومقالات إلى خطب وتهديدات. هذا أول...more

Arabian Rihanna liked Khalaf Alshammari's review of مهزلة العقل البشري: " قرأت الكتاب بعد قراءتي لكتاب الوردي الآخر خوارق اللا شعور. للكاتب أسلوب مميز وقدرة رائعة على التحليل والوصف ويتميز بروح فكاهة - أو سخرية في الواقع - عالية. مفكر رائع وعالم اجتماع من طراز فريد ، ولكن يعيب بعض أفكاره حدة الطرح والتشدد في محاولة فرض...

Arabian Rihanna rated a book 1 of 5 stars The World as I See It by Albert Einstein read in March, 2013	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
The preface provides scattered contexts for the essays to follow, but that was no way to inform the reader. By the time I reached the end of the book, I forgot all the information that was condensed in the preface. The book should have organized essay...more

Arabian Rihanna made a comment on her review of Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking "I recommend it because it mainly describes introverts. Perhaps knowing them a little better is the first step towards understanding them."

Arabian Rihanna rated a book 2 of 5 stars Letter to My Daughter by Maya Angelou read in January, 2013	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
A collection of thoughts, anecdotes, and poems by Maya Angelou. The book assumes that you know who the author is and what year she's talking about when she says she was 13 or was performing such and such. Maya's story with Mark was heartbreaking, and h...more

Arabian Rihanna rated a book 1 of 5 stars SeinLanguage by Jerry Seinfeld read in January, 2013	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
I understand that this book was a big hit in 1995, when the show was still airing. But in 2013, I find it a little too dull. I watched the entire Seinfeld sitcom and I mostly liked it. I hated the end though, and I disliked how Jerry would always go,...more

Arabian Rihanna rated a book 1 of 5 stars Love In A Headscarf by Shelina Zahra Janmohamed read in January, 2013	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
This is a memoir of a British Indian Muslim woman looking for a husband. The book started with a very juvenile style. The author's Islamic reasoning was a little too simplistic — like that of a teenager. I actually thought the book was excerpts from S...more

Arabian Rihanna rated a book 3 of 5 stars Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain (Goodreads Author) read in January, 2013	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
The first third of the book was compellingly written, but then it all went downhill. The author could not stop talking about introversion, so it took her too long to tell me how amazing and powerful of an introvert I am. Susan Cain is clearly biased...more
