233.I'll Take You There by: Joyce Carol Oates 2002-09
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
I'll Take You There is a story divided into three sections concerning crucial stages of a girl's development and narrated in the first person by the girl, Anellia, herself. This is the same structure Joyce Carol Oates uses in her 1986 novel Marya: A Life though the stories of the two novels differ in some crucial elements. The first section, The Penitent, is primarily concerned with Anellia's torturous time spent in a sorority called Kappa Gamma Pi and her relationship with the foreboding and ultimately tragic English headmistress Mrs. Agnes Thayer. Her entrance into the sorority sparked by a timid desire to gain acceptance from her peers, gradually reveals the shallow nature of the sisters and the vacuous symbols of their elite collective. ...

234.On Green Dolphin Street by: Sebastian Faulks April 27, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: £16.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: £0.01
well written, but felt like some kind of writing exercise: soulless and unengaging. Interesting in as much as it gives a feel for the way 'big history' fits in with personal history, but you end up not caring about the characters and their outcomes.

235.In Gallant Company by: Alexander Kent June 13, 1977
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.01
This is the fifth book (in terms of the story--not the 5th written) in Kent's Richard Bolitho series. Our hero must fight in the American Revolution on the American coast adn the Caribbean. In on adventure, he must help take and destroy an American fort. The rest of the time, he more or less fights privateers. What's good about this book? Well, there is just plenty of action. Kent keeps the book moving along pretty well from one adventure to the next. If you like a series with plenty of fighting, then this is the series for you. Also, it's a pretty easy read. The reader doesn't get lost in a lot of jargon. I enjoyed this book immensely and look forward to reading the next.

236.The Golden One by: Elizabeth Peters 2002-05
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
Elizabeth Peters was born and brought up in Illinois and earned her Ph.D. in Egyptology from the University of Chicago's famed Oriental Institute. Peters was named Grand Master at the inaugural Anthony Awards in 1986 and Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America at the Edgar Awards in 1998. She lives in a historic farmhouse in western Maryland. The Amelia Peabody books may or may not be an acquired taste, personally I love them. They are set in Victorian times when there were still very strict rules of etiquette and polite behaviour was the norm. Although most of the books are set in Egypt, in the desert under very trying conditions and extremely hot weather the `English' way of life was still expected to be adhered to, sometimes with ...

239.The Daydreamer by: Ian McEwan May 02, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
After being initially surprised and disappointed by this book, I wasn't aware of the subject or style before purchasing, I grew to like it, eventually thoroughly enjoyed reading it and in the end I was delighted by it. It was a brilliant view of the world through the eyes and mind of a daydreaming young boy, and was both innocent and ultimately profound. I was glad I didn't read about it before I purchased because I might never have read it.
