![]() ![]() Layla is more focused on school than the other three combined, and she's already picked out her future boyfriend from the crop of next year's applicants. Not that this means he's able to keep away from flirtatious Kimmy. It's handsome Russ who catches Kimmy's eye, but Russ has a girlfriend back at home in Canada. Kimmy hooks up with Jamie before classes even start and regrets the move almost instantly, especially when he begins writing her love poems in the co-ed bathroom. Kimmy, Jamie, Layla, and Russ meet in business school at the University of Connecticut. ![]() Mlynowski, author of Fishbowl (2002) and As Seen on TV, returns with another delightful tale about an unlikely group of friends. ![]() ![]() The author doesn’t spend much time focusing on the lives of Lina and her family when they were still at home together in the beginning and starts straight up with the night they are taken away. Lina and her mother and brother are together while their father is separated from them that night. The protagonist of the story is a fifteen-year-old girl named Lina and her family when they are taken from their home and sent to a labor camp somewhere in Siberia. ![]() The book is about Baltic Deportations with the main focus on Lithuanian citizens who were deported by the Soviet in 1941 to prison and labor camps. Basically, this is a part of History that I never read or studied about before and it completely fascinated me. Now when it comes to studying the history of World War II, the Baltic States were never more than mentioned in textbooks. This book immediately caught my attention because it takes place during World War II and it’s about a Lithuanian girl. I found Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys when I was browsing through the lists of War and Historical novels on different sites. ![]() ![]() If that weren’t bad enough, Reece is given additional cause to seek out those responsible, which he does with the help of a friend and former SEAL (Taylor Kitsch) while maintaining contact with an investigative journalist (Constance Wu), who wants the story almost as much as the people who Reece is eliminating want him in custody. ![]() ![]() Reece comes home emotionally scarred, before discovering that his unit might have been the victims of an experiment gone wrong, one that has left him dealing with cognitive trauma that clouds his memories. Despite the promotional benefits of featuring star-producer Chris Pratt as a grittier kind of avenger, this brutal eight-episode slog squanders its talent in front of and behind the camera.Īdapted from a novel by Jack Carr, the series features Pratt as James Reece, a hard-driving Navy SEAL whose platoon is ambushed and decimated during a covert mission. ![]() ![]() Amazon has flexed its muscles with military-style action series (see “Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan” and “Reacher”), but “The Terminal List” adds a numbingly simple-minded revenge saga to that subgenre. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The history of human cultures and civilisations living alongside the river extends to at least 2300 BCE.Įmpires of the Indus is based primarily on Albinia’s own journeys along the Indus River in the early 2000s. The Indus River is a transboundary river more than 3000km long, originating north of the Himalayas, winding its way through Central and Southern Asia, and flowing into the sea in the province of Sindh, Pakistan. Empires of the Indus was awarded the Jerwood Award by the Royal Society of Literature in 2005. The book gives an insight into the communities as well as the history and political framework of the countries through which the Indus flows. Throughout the book, Albinia encounters and describes facets of culture and history, and relates them to the existence of the river. It is a part-memoir part-essay recount of Albinia’s Journey through Central and Southern Asia, following the course of the Indus River from Karachi to Tibet. Empires of the Indus: The Story of a River is a non-fiction book by Alice Albinia published in 2008 by John Murray (publishing house). ![]() |
