Searching for sylvie lee book review5/12/2023 ![]() Sylvie’s mother takes her newborn to Holland to live with her cousin Helena and her family. Many Chinese immigrant families send their children away to relatives back home or elsewhere in order to teach them the ways of their ancestors. ![]() We also see the generational divide in which the children have adapted more readily, due to schooling and socialising with peers, than their parents who, with limited English and education, are only able to work in low paid jobs. While her first two novels deal with people struggling to make a new life for themselves in a place and culture that is strange to them with barely any ability to speak English, in Searching for Sylvie Lee her characters are already more established, but attempt to find a middle ground of keeping alive the traditions of their native country as well as embracing those of America. Like her previous novels, Girl in Translation (2011) and Mambo in Chinatown (2014), Searching for Sylvie Lee is strongly influenced by Kwok’s own experiences as an immigrant from China arriving in Brooklyn, New York. Inevitably this occurs at a time when people are at their most vulnerable or broken. ![]() It explores how, during a crisis, the certainty that one is familiar with every detail of a blood relative’s life can unexpectedly unravel. Jean Kwok’s third novel asks to what extent one ever really knows one’s family. ![]()

The Dark Portal by Robin Jarvis5/12/2023 ![]() ![]() Moreover, although the simultaneously symbolic and literal three-tiered world of bats, mice, and rats is well imagined and beautifully detailed, the narrative is rather dense, causing the book’s story engine to flag at several points. Still, the characters lack that elusive quality of lovability that makes the reader care deeply about their fate. ![]() He does a good job, especially through the dialogue, of differentiating the multitude of mice, rat, and bat characters that populate the book. As the stakes rise, Jarvis ratchets up the suspense, neatly juggling several story lines that culminate in a remarkable climactic disclosure. The battle begins when a young mouse named Audrey Brown bravely slips between the bars of the basement grate, the portal between the mouse and rat universe, to search for her father, who has met with misadventure and disappeared into the hellish world beneath. ![]() Together they fight the evil, filthy rats, denizens of the dark and slimy sewers, who are ruled by a demonic overlord named Jupiter. The side of good is represented by a society of harmonious, quiet-living mice who are aided and abetted by the more spiritual and mysterious bats above. ![]() Popular in England but never before published in America, the first book of Jarvis’s fantasy trilogy depicts an epic battle between good and evil. ![]()

Books like on dublin street5/10/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() I never actually felt anything, because the connections between people just didn't make sense. Overall, I felt like I was just reading words. Nothing warm or bubbly or even remotely friendly. On top of being incredibly closed and guarded, she's just a cold bitch all together. The main character is possibly the most unlikable character I've ever met. "Fuckity fuck fuck shittitty fuck" got very old very fast as well. Even writing essays for school I was taught not to use the same word over and over and over again. 3 pages in and I already read the word "bemused" more than. ![]() I felt like I was literally forcing myself to read this book. I usually like to just finish every book I start even if I'm not that fond of it, but months later and I do not care if I never read this book ever again.

Here I was reading this, as I was sick with the flu, and literally laughed my ass off!!! I knew then that Samantha Young was real!! Thank you for making a sick girl feel so much better. ![]() It was an easy read and very nice story line. Review 1: This book had me hooked from the start. ![]()
