In light of current professional views of alcoholism, is the Big Book still appropriate in understanding the nature of the alcoholism and/or other addictive behaviours? The characters were honestly pitch perfect. They aren’t the most growth oriented characters, and while Moore shies away from digging too deep into their interior lives, he makes them feel that they have a stake in their world. While I generally like a little more interior life, Moore invested me fully into almost every character, be it main, side or even bit character. They all felt as if they had lives outside the narrative he was telling, even though in some cases they explicitly did not. The agents were all wonderful, even if they were sociopathic. Carissa and Rindasy had an excellent dynamic as they smashed through the floors of the building. Again, three cheers for the best bit character I have ever read, Agent Pivotal Moment who is perfect in every way, no notes. I could go on about why I love long books, but I thought a short list would be sufficient (since the long reads are all ahead). Here’s why I love them: U.S. President Richard Nixon received the millionth copy of the book, [11] The 25-millionth copy of the Big Book was presented to Jill Brown, the warden of San Quentin State Prison, at the International Convention of Alcoholics Anonymous in Toronto, Ontario to commemorate the first prison meeting of Alcoholics Anonymous taking place at San Quentin in 1941. [12] The 30-millionth copy of the book was presented to the American Medical Association in 2010, which declared alcoholism an illness in 1956. [13] Synopsis [ edit ]Wild Massive had so many incredible ideas in it that it was difficult to keep up. I loved the concepts and the (sometimes literal) worldbuilding, and I feel like if the world had been any less extreme the book would not have held together at all. As it is, I struggled to see the plot through the cool factor. I would have preferred this story as either a short story or a series, which surprised me because I usually do prefer stand-alone novels. Set in London of the 1660s and of the early twenty-first century, The Weight of Inkis the interwoven tale of two women of remarkable intellect: Ester Velasquez, anemigrant from Amsterdam who is permitted to scribe for a blind rabbi, just before the plague hits the city; and Helen Watt, an ailing historian with a love of Jewish history. I felt the book didn't give a proper insight into Carmen's personality or motives, despite the entire book being in a first person narrative. Her actions seemed pretty random at times and every time some sort of dieting-type/ED situation occurred I actually got surprised because the majority of the book had me reading about her family politics or messed up 'friends'. I would not have minded this so much if it wasn't for the blurb and the COVER of the book which obviously (mis)led me to believe this was a book on ED. Enter Adelaide Thom and Eleanor St. Clair. At their humble teashop, Tea and Sympathy, they provide a place for whispered confessions, secret cures, and spiritual assignations for a select society of ladies, who speak the right words and ask the right questions. But the profile of Tea and Sympathy is about to change with the fortuitous arrival of Beatrice Dunn.

The story wasn’t actually bad to this point, however. It was actually rather adventurous and unique (very unique), wild and crazy, exciting and… crazy. Interesting and immersive—until it wasn’t. For five days, the parents of a seven-year-old Japanese schoolgirl sat and listened to the demands of their daughter’s kidnapper. They would never learn his identity. And they would never see their daughter alive again. Welcome to the Building, an infinitely tall skyscraper in the center of the multiverse, where any floor could contain a sprawling desert oasis, a cyanide rain forest, or an entire world. I must try harder, I write, pressing the biro into my biology book, not to eat. It is this which is at the root of my problems, I have decided. Not Mum and Dad, or Nana or Kelly or Maxine and Paisley, but this: my puffy face, my swelling breasts, my belly. If I was beautiful, I could have everything I wanted.'Between the contest, the judging process, editing, laying out the book, and then printing and binding, it took approximately eight months to create the giant edition of I Am Texas.
