2012

Keset augustit pihta hakkamise põhjuseks on lihtsalt soov teada, palju ma ajavahemikus august-detsember raamatuid loen. Lihtsalt enda põnevuseks ja teistele uudistamiseks, sest on ju nii-nii põnev lugeda, mida teised lugen'd on ja kas ka ise tahaks lugeda või mitte.

Autor: Walter Kirn
Teos: "Up in the air"
Lk arv: 362
Lugemisaeg: 03.08.-05.08.

Tagakaanelt: Ryan Bingham's job as a Career Transition Counselor - he fires people - has kept him airborne for years. Although he despises his line of work, he has come to love the culture of what he calls "Airworld." With a letter of resignation sitting on his boss's desk, and the hope of a job with a mysterious firm, Bingham is agonizingly close to his ultimate goal: ONE MILLION FREQUENT-FLYER MILES.

Mis mina arvan: Õnneks ma lugesin seda enne kui ma nägin filmi, tõesti õnneks. Päev hiljem vaatasin ka filmi üle ja film minule väga ei istunud, olles nö raamatutefänn oli mul lausa mõnes kohas keeruline aru saada täiesti teistsugusest käsitlusest. Kuid raamatust endast, see oli naljakas, see oli kurb ja lõpus veidike segadust tekkitavalt arusaadav. Mõnus vihmase ilma lugemisraamat.

Autor/Koostaja: Jüri Aarma
Teos: "Jaanus Orgulas - Jäägu see"
Lk arv: 149
Lugemisaeg: 07.08.

Märkus: Tagakaanel ei ole midagi, raamatu sisekaantelt võib leida nelja tuntud eesti tegelase arvamusi Jaanus Orgulasest.

Minu arvamus: Inimestest ja nende eludest on alati põnev lugeda, minu arvates. Eriti kui tegemist on eesti enda näitlejaga, kindlasti silmiavav lugemiselamus.

Autor: Harper Lee
Teos: "To Kill a Mockingbird"
Lk arv: 309
Lugemisaeg: 08.08.-10.08.

Tagakaanelt: 'Shoot all the bluejays you want, if you can hit 'em, but remember it's a sin to kill a mockingbird.'

A lawyer's advice to his children as he defends the real mockingbird of Harper Lee's classic novel - a black man charged with the rape of a white girl. Through the youngest eyes of Scout and Jem Finch, Harper Lee explores with exuberant humor the irrationality of adult attitudes to race and class in the Deep South of the 1930s. The conscience of a town steeped in prejudice, violence and hypocrisy is pricked by the stamina of one man's struggle for justice. But the weight of history will only tolerate so much.

Minu arvamus: Poleks arvanud, et see nii hea on. Jah, klassika. Jah, U.Lennuk tegi sellest päris hea lavastuse aga ei oleks osanud arvatagi, et selle lugemine on tõeline nauding. Mis mulle eriti meeldis, oli see, et see läks kiiresti ja koguaeg oli õhus küsimus, et mis edasi saab. Samuti see naiivne maailmavaade, tegemist oli ikkagi ju täiesti lapsega, läbi kelle silmade vaadati seda rassiproblemaatikat. Tõeliselt nauditav.

Autor: Stieg Larsson
Teos: "The Girl Who Played with Fire"
Lk arv: 569
Lugemisaeg: 13.08.-17.08.
Tagakaanelt: Issue Two ; millennium magazine

The Expose
Millennium publisher Mikael Blomkvist has made his reputation exposing corrupt establishment figures. So when a young journalist approaches him with an investigation into sex trafficking, Blokvist cannnot resist waging was on the powerful figures who control this lucrative industry.

The Murder
When a young couple are found dead in their Stockholm apartment, it's a staightforward job for Inspector Bublanski and his team. The killer left the weapon at the scene - and the fingerprints on the gun point in only one direction.

The Girl Who Played with Fire
Ex-security analyst Lisbeth Salander is wanted for murder. Her history of unpredictable and vengeful behaviour makes her an official danger to society - but no-one can find her. The only way Salander can be reached is by computer. But she can break into almost any network she chooses...

Minu arvamus: Heh, täitsa põnev. Kuigi isegi kahju oli, et mu loodetud armuromanss edasi ei kestnud. Huvitav loo pöörded ja täitsa kobe lugemine ja saja protsendiliselt saan aru, miks inimestele see nii tohutult meeldib.

Autorid: P.C and Kristin Cast
Teos: "Untamed" (4th book of House of Night series)
Lugemisaeg: 19.08.-20.08.
Lk arv: 411
Tagakaanelt:
'I saw the end of everything' Aphrodite's voice was as haunted as her face. 'I saw all of it happening because you were dead. Zoey. Your death made it happen.' 'Ah hell,' I said and then my knees have way and I had to sit down.

A week ago Zoey had a group of special friends, three boyfriends and a (kinda) clear conscience. Now she has none of the above. Luckily, ice queen Aphtodite is showing signs of melting and ex-roomie Stevie Rae isn't as dead as she'd thought. Though Stevie Rae's now hanging out in tunnels with freaks - totally gross.

Assuming she can get them to listen, Zoey will need all her friends as events take a frightening turn at the House of Night school for vampyres. Shocking true intentions are about to come to light, loyalties will be tested an ancient evil is about to rise again. Some days being special just doesn't seem all that...

Mis ma arvan: Nauditav noortekas, vampiirid ja maailma päästmine ja sellised asjad.
