Oh, evet ... Bunu Cumartesi günü postayla aldım ve okumayı dört gözle bekliyorum. Beni tanıyan herkes iyi bir biyografi / anı sevdiğimi bilir. Ayrıca, beni tanıyan herkes Katharine Hepburn'a karşı derin ve saygılı bir aşkım olduğunu biliyor. Çok güçlü, küstah (ve uzun) bir kadındı. Ayrıca, bu başlık beni LOL yaptı. Ben zaten hayranıyım. :-)

I read this book when I was a kid. I borrowed it from teh school library. I remember the exact spot I found it in the library. The only thing I didn't remember was the name of the book. The story is about a happy little creature that thinks everything is beautiful, so she stays up and doesn't sleep, and becomes crabby. The concept has actually gotten me through most of my life!

The choice of selections in this anthology was a bit suspect...perhaps even homogeneous. The only real standout (in my opinion) was "After a Life," by Yiyun Li.

Beautiful graphic novel. The art and story go hand-in-hand, being rough and raw, and simple yet complex. With a bard telling the tale, it is one of glory and blood - an epic.

Her family, her friends, her groom, and the happiest day of her life.....really?.....Could have fooled Rebecca about the happiest day of her life. If her married life was going to be anything like her wedding day....well, she figured she made the biggest mistake of her life. Rebecca was a fun-loving, thirty something and wasn't sure she ever wanted to be married, but there she was in her wedding dress and finding things out about her groom that she really didn't want to know. At least her pre-marriage days as a struggling actress had been enjoyable even though they were mixed with a few bad memories. This book is so fun....it has career situations, life situations, and family situations that you may be able to relate to. It is a page turner in all respects.....you even get a virtual visit of Italy, a tour of a Tuscan villa, and a mouthwatering visit to an authentic, quaint Italian restaurant. :) Che Bella!!! It is a wonderful, amusing escape. I really enjoyed it....you will find yourself laughing throughout the book and also being enraged along with Rebecca. Don't miss the read....it is splendid!!! You will love it….I certainly did. 5/5
