Read the Longman Simplified English version.This book is important because it's a window into the lifestyles of people living in the 18th century. I have to admit the dullness of the interactions mixed with the third person omniscient style (which lacks emotions) did not give me a good first impression of the novel. Yet, due to curiosity as to why this is a classic I decided to keep going. As far as petty drama goes I was pleasantly surprised upon reaching 3/4 of the book. (view spoiler)[When the youngest sister Lydia ran off with the sleazy Mr. Wickham the plot took an interesting turn which significantly changed my opinion. The title of the book is also very fitting. Pride = Mr. Darcy Prejudice = Elizabeth The story about two unlikely people that fall for each other while overcoming their flaws.  (hide spoiler)]

Prosecuting attorney in the Manson trial, Vincent Bugliosi held a unique insider's position in one of the most baffling and horrifying cases of the twentieth century: the cold-blooded Tate-LaBianca murders carried out by Charles Manson and four of his followers. What motivated Manson in his seemingly mindless selection of victims, and what was his hold over the young women who obeyed his orders? Here is the gripping story of this famous and haunting crime. 50 pages of b/w photographs.

El comienzo de este libro es inmejorable. Michael, un chico de 12 años, va a viajar solo a Orlando, lugar en el que se reunirá con su tía. El viaje le hace mucha ilusión, pero no entiende la actitud de sus padres. En el aeropuerto parecen más preocupados de lo normal y le dan un sobre para que lo abra cuando ya esté en el avión. Michael lo hace y queda en shock: lo único que hay dentro es una pequeña nota que dice “NOSOTROS NO SOMOS TUS PADRES”. Michael no entiende nada, empieza a ponerse nervioso y encima ve que es el único pasajero. ¿Cuál es el destino del vuelo? ¿Qué sucede? ¿Por qué sus padres niegan que él sea su hijo?. Si por algo destacan las primeras páginas es por el hecho de que creo que cualquier lector se sentirá tan perdido como Michael. No podía parar de leer, me intrigaba mucho lo que estaba sucediendo y no sabía qué rumbo iba a tomar la historia. El problema es que cuando a Michael le van aclarando algunas cosas, se pierde un poco de interés. Nunca me pareció que la lectura se volviera aburrida, sencillamente es que el principio fue tan maravilloso que era difícil que no decayera. Como podréis deducir por el título, en esta historia hay una momia, pero es que casi ni aparece. En otros libros que he leído de Stine hay más momentos sobrenaturales o de terror, pero éste es más bien un thriller muy sencillo destinado a niños o adolescentes. A ver, que a mí como adulta también me ha gustado, pero digo que es para un público muy joven porque no tiene escenas gore ni violencia ni una trama compleja. El desenlace fue lo más decepcionante, ya que fue brusco y no entendí muy bien la frase final. Si no fuera por eso y por lo desaprovechado que está el tema de la momia, es posible que le hubiera dado un 4/5. No doy más detalles de lo que ocurre porque eso ya supondría contarlo todo. Tened en cuenta que es un libro de solo 141 páginas. Si buscáis una lectura entretenida para leer de un tirón, no dudéis en darle una oportunidad.

The Famous Five have heard the stories about treasure on Demon's Rocks - bu they never thought they were really true! But then they discover a very old and valuable gold coin and what was a myth becomes real! Who does the treasure belong to? The gang are determined to find out, but first they need to know who else is exploring Demon's Rocks for the Treasure - just like they are . . . About The Author: Enid Blyton, 1896 - November 28, 1959 Enid Blyton was born in London in 1896. She was educated in a private school and thought that she would become a musician until she realized that writing was her passion. She attended Ipswich High School where she trained to become a kindergarten teacher and eventually opened her own school for infants. Blyton's first poem was published in 1917, entitled "Have You-" which appeared in Nash's Magazine. In 1922, her first book of verses was published, entitled "Child Whispers." In 1926 she accepted a position editing the children's magazine "Sunny Stories" as well as writing the column "Teachers World." Blyton's first full length children's book was published din 1938 and was titled "The Secret Island." After working on the column for years, Blyton quit "Teachers World" in 1945 and also ended her stint as editor of "Sunny Stories" seven years later. In 1953 she started her own children's magazine called "The Edith Blyton Magazine" which featured stories about her characters and news on the clubs formed around them. Her most famous stories were those of the "Famous Five" The Magazine closed in 1959. In the 50's and 60's Blyton was criticized for the language in her book, for being to simple, but some 300 are still in print today. Blyton has published over 600 books in the course of her career. Enid Blyton died in her sleep on November 28, 1968. She was 72 years old.

This book really had a lot of potential. R.L. Stine has set up some truly suspenseful scenes that are held together well by highly energized writing, and there are definitely a few spots in the narrative that had me on the edge of my seat. Some of the decision results seem to be almost completely random. I don't necessarily mind this, since it realistically reflects the random nature of life itself. Some of the decisions are hard to figure out exactly, though: for example, what is the reader supposed to choose when asked if he remembers the last time that he fell off a jungle gym at school? Add to that the fact that this ultimately is a decision of crucial importance, and one might wonder why everything depends on one's ability to recall the last time that one fell off of playground equipment. The adventures in Zombie School can be very entertaining, and as with most of his Give Yourself Goosebumps books, I was impressed by the creativity that R.L. Stine implements in developing the narrative. I like this book.

My boyfriend and I read this entire book, but it took us over 2 hours because we wanted to find out each ending and let me tell you, we died a LOT. I don't remember these books being this gruesome, but if you want a happy ending, good luck. Out of all the endings there's only a couple happy or semi happy ones. The story is interesting, but we couldn't wait to get to the code part and the maze part. It took us awhile and we got to the maze near the end. Everyone will get to different parts of the book at different times since it's based off what choices you make, but after reading this we don't want to read anymore of these type of books.

Massie gets BE-yoo-tiful: After Massie Block gets kicked off her high horse and out of her ultra exclusive Westchester riding camp, her parents force her to do the unthinkable-find a summer job.

How will she ever get her girls suitable dates and melt Chris's heart? She'd need to be a mind reader! Luckily for the PC, alpha status just happens to come with ESP . . . not the actual superpower, but a secret weapon that shows them exactly how boy brains work.Kristen Gregory: Loves supersensitive guys, and thanks to ESP, has her eye on a boy who loves The Notebook as much as she does. So why on earth is she going to Skye's party as the Bride of Chucky?Alicia Rivera: Diss-missed her crush, Josh Hotz, for having a bizarrely clean room. Then ESP tells her Josh's sister is actually the neat freak, and suddenly hawt Hotz looks hawter than ever.Dylan Marvil: When ESP clues her in to the fact that guys-plural- like a girl who's not afraid to eat, it's all mozzarella sticks for this former Jenny Craig groupie.

Massie Block: After disbanding the Pretty Committee, Massie takes charge like Visa, forming OCD's hawtest clique yet: Massie And Crew.

But when the boys head back to the newly renovated Briarwood Academy, will the remaining Soul-M8s become 4Squares?

Kristen Gregory: Scored three goals on the soccer field last week-and Massie's crush . . . which earned her an ejection from her ex-BFF's heart. Can Massie forgive and forget, or is Kristen out of the game forever? Claire Lyons: Has declared herself neutral in the battle of the cliques. But dividing her time among Massie, the Soul-M8s, and Cam has left her stretched thinner than extra-small Spanx. Can she get her friends to reunite, or will she be forced to pick a side once and for all? The Clique . . . the only thing harder than getting in is staying in.

This review is for the entire Fear Street Saga.Raise your hand if R.L. Stine scared the bejeezus out of you at some point during your childhood.*takes a look around at all the raised hands*I thought so.Well, it was the same for me. I started on the Goosebumps series when they first came out, starting with Welcome to Dead House. Now I can’t go into old houses, be near dummies or scarecrows, go down into basements, put on masks, go on haunted rides in amusement parks, or have a picture taken of me with those old cameras that have the flash above it. Even though I might have enough problems that it’ll take years of therapy to get through (seriously, I hate dummies so much that I can’t even watch movies with them in it), I still love the Goosebumps series.And it was only natural that I progressed on to R.L. Stine’s young adult series, Fear Street. Now I suspect all cheerleaders as being evil and/or possessed, will not go into graveyards (if I can help it), and I will not wear clunky, old necklaces. You never know if it will somehow transfer a curse that goes back hundreds of years on you and those you love.Because that’s what happens again and again in the Fear Street Saga, which is a trilogy that explains the origins behind Fear Street. And it’s not pretty, guys.If you’re read them, you know what happens. For those that haven’t, summarized version below. *minor spoilers*Nora knows the secrets behind the horrifying things happening on Fear Street and reveals the dark legacy that marked the start of the terror three hundred years earlier, when a young girl was burned at the stake.So, this whole thing starts in 1692 in a Massachusetts colony called Wickham Village during a scary period of time for all women… the witch trials. Susannah Goode is in love with Edward Fier, the son of Benjamin Fier, who is the magistrate of the village and the one who “hunts down” the witches. You can already see this isn’t going to end well, can’t you? Anyway, things come to light when Benjamin demands Edward marry an out-of-town girl in order to increase their wealth, Edward reveals he’s in love with Susannah and will only marry her. And then her and her mother are suddenly found out to be witches! Oh, noes! But of course, they aren’t. Benjamin’s just manipulating everyone in order to get what he wants. He’s a bad man. And so is his brother, Matthew Fier, who swindles George Goode (Susannah’s father) into thinking Susannah and her mother will be released if George gives Matthew everything of value he owns! (Seriously, these are not good people.)Edward believes his father. Susannah’s heart breaks. And then Susannah and her mother burn on stakes while George watches! It’s horrific! But wait… George is a witch! (Plot twist!) And he places a curse on the Fier family for betraying him and his family.This curse lasts for over two hundred years and through the course of the three books, you get to read all about the betrayals, the deaths, and the good-hearted members of the Fiers (changed to Fear in 1843 in an attempt to stop the curse) and the Goodes who lose everything time and again.And it’s all centered around this necklace that Benjamin and Matthew brought over from ‘the old country’. You can see it on the Betrayal’s cover. On the backside, there’s an inscription: Dominatio per malum.I have to hand it to R.L. Stine. How I was able to read these books when I was younger and not go around shouting ‘Dominatio per malum’ to everyone I disliked, I’ll never know. Of course, it might have been because I had no idea how to say it. (Oh, where’s the audiobook version when you need it?)Things move really fast in these books. I miss that kind of pacing sometimes when reading adult (or sometimes young adult) books. R.L. Stine doesn’t write long, drawn-out intros into a character’s psyche and explain their entire backstory. Now that might be because people tend not to live very long in his stories, but I like to think it’s because he knows the attention span of a kid or teenager is short and in order to keep them engaged, things can never slow down.I also liked how there’s a little bit of everything in these books. Stine doesn’t hold back with the supernatural and evil. Just a few of the things covered: ghosts, zombies, witches, plagues, murderers, liars, medical mysteries, creepy little girls (*shudders*), and insanity.If for some reason you missed these books, which were pivotal in my young life and probably countless others, find them and read them. Hopefully your library will have them, but if not check out garage sales, resell book stores, and online swap sites. You’ll want the originals, if you can find them. There’s just something about holding the original edition of a book that makes it so much better than the reprints.One last thing. Somehow, R.L. Stine still has some terrifying things to write about and scare the next generation of children with. He has a new show called The Haunting Hour on the Hub channel. If you have kids or love R.L. Stine, check it out. You can find all the info on his website –&gt; HERE.My most-traumatizing phobia? Automatonophobia – fear of ventriloquist’s dummies. It’s a real thing, people.Reviewed on WhatchYAreading on November 5, 2010.

The original Goosebumps series was full of suspense and events that almost seemed horrific. However, in the majority of the books things were explained through some natural, rational, or plausible way and then the book ends with a Hitchcockian twist. If CRY OF THE CAT is any indication of what the Goosebumps 2000 holds, then things are a lot more spooky with a lot less rational explantation.The story of CRY OF THE CAT revolves around Alison. Alison is a young girl who is involved in theatre. One afternoon while on her way to play practice, she runs over a cat and kills it. At least she thinks she killed it. When she takes it back to the owners, it comes back to life. The same cat shows up again during play rehearsal and is crushed by a set piece on accident. But the cat comes back again and starts to haunt Alison. The cat, Rip, isn't like other cats and it has a mind of it's own.Spooky story filled with lots of interesting plot twists. Feels more frightening than some of the original Goosebumps.

Three separate but parallel stories of the U.S mortgage housing crisis of 2005 are told. Michael Burry, an eccentric ex-physician turned one-eyed Scion Capital hedge fund manager, has traded traditional office attire for shorts, bare feet and a Supercuts haircut. He believes that the US housing market is built on a bubble that will burst within the next few years. Autonomy within the company allows Burry to do largely as he pleases, so Burry proceeds to bet against the housing market with the banks, who are more than happy to accept his proposal for something that has never happened in American history. The banks believe that Burry is a crackpot and therefore are confident in that they will win the deal. Jared Vennett with Deutschebank gets wind of what Burry is doing and, as an investor believes he too can cash in on Burry's beliefs. An errant telephone call to FrontPoint Partners gets this information into the hands of Mark Baum, an idealist who is fed up with the corruption in the financial industry. Baum and his associates, who work at an arms length under Morgan Stanley, decide to join forces with Vennett despite not totally trusting him. In addition to Burry's information, they further believe that most of the mortgages are overrated by the bond agencies, with the banks collating all the sub-prime mortgages under AAA packages. Charlie Geller and Jamie Shipley, who are minor players in a $30 million start-up garage company called Brownfield, get a hold of Vennett's prospectus on the matter. Wanting in on the action but not having the official clout to play, they decide to call an old "friend", retired investment banker Ben Rickert, to help out. All three of these groups work on the premise that the banks are stupid and don't know what's going on, while for them to win, the general economy has to lose, which means the suffering of the general investor who trusts the financial institutions. That latter aspect may not sit well with Baum. Some of these assumptions may be incorrect and may be far more manipulative than they could have ever imagined, which in turn may throw curves into the process.

Three sailors - Gabey, Chip and Ozzie - let loose on a 24-hour pass in New York and the Big Apple will never be the same! Gabey falls head over heels for "Miss Turnstiles of the Month" (he thinks she's a high society deb when she's really a 'cooch dancer at Coney Island); innocent Chip gets highjacked (literally) by a lady cab driver; and Ozzie becomes the object of interest of a gorgeous anthropologist who thinks he's the perfect example of a "prehistoric man". Wonderful music and terrific shots of New York at its best.

On the day that Hurricane Katrina hits New Orleans, elderly Daisy Williams (nee Fuller) is on her deathbed in a New Orleans hospital. At her side is her adult daughter, Caroline. Daisy asks Caroline to read to her aloud the diary of Daisy's lifelong friend, Benjamin Button. Benjamin's diary recounts his entire extraordinary life, the primary unusual aspect of which was his aging backwards, being diagnosed with several aging diseases at birth and thus given little chance of survival, but who does survive and gets younger with time. Abandoned by his biological father, Thomas Button, after Benjamin's biological mother died in childbirth, Benjamin was raised by Queenie, a black woman and caregiver at a seniors home. Daisy's grandmother was a resident at that home, which is where she first met Benjamin. Although separated through the years, Daisy and Benjamin remain in contact throughout their lives, reconnecting in their forties when in age they finally match up. Some of the revelations in Benjamin's diary are difficult for Caroline to read, especially as it relates to the time past this reconnection between Benjamin and Daisy, when Daisy gets older and Benjamin grows younger into his childhood years.

Based on the best-selling pair of memoirs from father and son David and Nic Sheff, Beautiful Boy chronicles the heartbreaking and inspiring experience of survival, relapse and recovery in a family coping with addiction over many years.

After his death sometime in his 43rd year, suburbanite Lester Burnham tells of the last few weeks of his life, during which he had no idea of his imminent passing. He is a husband to real estate agent Carolyn Burnham and father to high school student Jane Burnham. Although Lester and Carolyn once loved each other, they now merely tolerate each other. Typical wallflower Jane also hates both her parents; the three suffer individually in silence in their home life. Jane tries to steer clear of both her parents. Carolyn, relatively new to the real estate business, wants to create the persona of success to further her career, aspiring to the professional life of Buddy Kane, the king of the real estate business in their neighborhood. Lester merely walks mindlessly through life, including at his job in advertising. His company is downsizing, and he, like all the other employees, has to justify his position to the newly hired efficiency expert to keep his job. Things change for Lester when he falls in love at first sight with Jane's more experienced classmate, Angela Hayes. Both Janie and Angela can see Lester's sexual infatuation with Angela, who courts such attention from any man as a sign that she is model material, she having once appeared in Seventeen and is a career to which she aspires. Lester's infatuation with Angela gives him a reenergized view on life, where he openly doesn't care anymore what anyone thinks about what he does, anyone except Angela. This infatuation coincides with the Fittses moving in next door: homophobic disciplinarian US Marine Colonel Frank Fitts who rules the house with a military fist (that fist being both figurative and literal), his semi-comatose wife Barbara Fitts, and their bright and quietly subversive 18-year-old son Ricky Fitts, who openly abides by his father's rules while behind the scenes lives by his own quite different perspective. Much like Lester's infatuation, Ricky immediately becomes infatuated with Jane; he considers girls like Angela as ordinary. The entry of Angela and the Fittses into the Burnhams' lives ultimately leads to each of the players confronting what is truly in his or her heart.
