Having read the re-issue, I can say that If you haven’t read the novel, now is a great time to dive in and experience a powerful story of faithful love. However, with a motion picture release scheduled for 2022, Multnomah has re-issued the author’s 2001 edited version. I read the original 1991 version of Redeeming Love and found it unsatisfying. Rivers edited the manuscript several years later to enhance its biblical connection, and Multnomah Press republished it in 2001. After the book’s first publication for the general romance market, Ms. The story, first published in 1991, is based on selected chapters from Hosea, a biblical book from a minor prophet, in which God asks the prophet to marry a prostitute, a marriage that symbolizes God’s steadfast love for His people. Redeeming Love is a classic in the Christian market and straddles the genres of romance and Christian fiction. What Zachary finds in this curious place is more than just a buried home for books and their guardians-it is a place of lost cities and seas, lovers who pass notes under doors and across time, and of stories whispered by the dead. Bewildered by this inexplicable book and desperate to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded, Zachary uncovers a series of clues-a bee, a key, and a sword-that lead him to a masquerade party in New York, to a secret club, and through a doorway to an ancient library hidden far below the surface of the earth. As he turns the pages, entranced by tales of lovelorn prisoners, key collectors, and nameless acolytes, he reads something strange: a story from his own childhood. Zachary Ezra Rawlins is a graduate student in Vermont when he discovers a mysterious book hidden in the stacks. From the New York Times bestselling author of The Night Circus, a timeless love story set in a secret underground world-a place of pirates, painters, lovers, liars, and ships that sail upon a starless sea. He's desperate to figure out what happened to Calvin and, eventually, Benny. When Calvin goes missing, Mason finds himself in trouble again. But most of all the voice and heart of a boy named Mason Buttle. Completely absorbing ‘The Truth As Told By Mason Buttle’ will remain with me for a long time: The love of a dog named Mooney, long awaited redemption, and the taste of homemade apple crisp. Fifteen months ago, Mason's best friend, Benny Kilmartin, turned up dead in the Buttle family's orchard.Īn investigation drags on, and Mason, honest as the day is long, can't understand why Lieutenant Baird won't believe the story Mason has told about that day.īoth Mason and his new friend, tiny Calvin Chumsky, are relentlessly bullied by the other boys in their neighborhood, so they create an underground haven for themselves. I ‘loved’ everything about experiencing this narration the voices, the story. Mason's learning disabilities are compounded by grief. Mason Buttle is the biggest, sweatiest kid in his grade, and everyone knows he can barely read or write. Cook, Leslie Connor, comes a deeply poignant and beautifully crafted story about self-reliance, redemption, and hope.

Setting aside the garment onto the clothes valet, he turned to face Christopher’s back and skimmed his hands over his shoulders. “A pleasant evening,” Christopher said mildly over his shoulder as Jack assisted him out of his well-fitted navy evening jacket. Little did they know he’d outgrown such an inclination years ago. As was their routine, they locked the doors to bar any unwanted nightly visitors, such a practice explained to the household as a way to deter Christopher’s childhood habit of sleepwalking. When Christopher returned to the bedchamber at the time the clock ticked its way past midnight, Jack was waiting for him. Jack and Christopher have made it through years of campaigning and the horrors of Waterloo together-side by side by day and, by night, in each other’s arms.Īfter the war is over, however, will the love shared between this batman and his officer survive when Christopher returns to the life of a gentleman? This entire book is entirely not what I’m looking for. It has so much promise and potential, and I was ready to sob my heart out only to sadly, end up dry-eyed and uncaring of Nora and her story. But, their overall impact and depth are weakened by the story’s execution. I just wished this whole book was written differently. Nevertheless, some parts in The Midnight Library resonated with me. Moreover, there’s an abundance of clichés and repetition, making the entire book shallow and a chore to read. There’s no need for careful thinking or looking underneath the underneath. Everything profound in this book is as subtle as a wrecking ball in action. The messages of the story are laid out in the open. It also doesn’t help that there are no nuanced moments. A lot of the story is told and not shown-and that makes it clinical, makes it read more like a self-help book disguised as clumsy fiction instead of actual literary fiction. The main problem I have with The Midnight Library is the stilted, didactic and unemotional narrative. I never knew a book could be both profound (truthfully, it wasn’t that profound either because I’ve read the same notions in many other books before) and boring. Everyone around me has been raving about The Midnight Library for ages so I finally got around to reading it, and well, here comes the awkward review detailing why I don’t like the book. In the case of the Owl Moon book, a cover page can have a father figure taking his child along somewhere to instantly let the reader know that this book is about the adventures of a parent and a child. In the background, there should be some art or illustration that resonates with the story. This is followed by the author’s name either immediately after the title or at the bottom of the page. So, the title of the book is given the most prominence and is written usually at the top or in the middle of the cover page. The components of a title page usually include the name of the book and the author. It is proven that eye-catchy and thoughtful cover pages can affect the sales of the book immensely. The font of the title should also be chosen carefully as it should be easy to read and understand and it should be consistent with the tone of the book.Ī well-designed book cover can make a huge difference in the success of a book. A cover should be such that it should give a glimpse of the storyline to the reader without giving away much of the actual story. The air cools with each step, and since I’m all sweaty from moving the contents of our entire life, my arms become clammy in the summer heat and I shiver. I’m not usually afraid of my own shadow, but this place . or the less likely scenario that monsters are lurking in the shadows. Shannon barrels downward, not a care for the possibility of rotten steps giving way . I want to say “No thanks, you go ahead and get murdered without me,” but I tentatively take a step, the ancient wooden stairs creaking even under my negligible weight. “Come on,” she says, pushing past me, carrying a giant box. Shannon’s only older than me by three years, but she acts like I’m a little kid. She catches my expression and laughs, patting my head, like I’m five instead of fifteen. I know my sister is joking, but she sounds so serious. “And gross, what’s that smell? It’s rank.” “This is such a murder basement,” I say, peering down the dark stairs.
