The Dotshop - A Small Business Incubator

Another disappointing read.

The dialogue is not just boring, it gets really tiresome. A book where contemporary becomes jumbled nonsense. I need to learn to avoid plugs like..Lyrical..Evocative..&..Striking.

Anything but.

It was going to be long flight there and back.

So I stocked up with what I could find from Andy McNab and Chris Ryan. Books I can skim through. However I do worry that I should be looking for stuff that has a bit more substance to it. Chris Ryans work is readable although the tales are very much do and die.

Helps to pass the time.

Ex SAS Chris Ryan writes combat action thrillers.

OK for a light read. But tend to be a little too gung ho and melodramatic.

Lost me very quickly. Tries far too hard to be that voice of the modern Chinese American teenager. Found it contrived, coarse and abrasive. Not the slightest bit stimulating. Simply irritating.

“[Jenny Zhang’s] coming-of-age tales are coarse and funny, sweet and sour, told in language that’s rough-hewn yet pulsating with energy.”—USA Today

“One of the knockout fiction debuts of the year.”—New York

“Compelling writing about what it means to be a teenager . . . It’s brilliant, it’s dark, but it’s also humorous and filled with love.”—Isaac Fitzgerald, Today

Afraid I don’t get it.

An excellent read. Well written, thought provoking, engaging.

Alternates between two narrative threads – one set in Virginia in the US, during and after the American civil war, and the other in the 1950’s as one of the characters retraces the path to his roots. Capturing the themes of conflict, oppression and ultimately resignation and reconciliation.

I felt that the author rushed the ending which was maybe a little too abrupt.

Fast moving, action packed, almost believeable.

Another book by an ex Special Forces author. Well written and not too over the top. A light read for those who enjoy the genre.
