Throughout the book he continues talking about the many fast food chains which are know for being symbols of the fast food culture. He starts by talking about this first because he believes this was one of the fast growing regions and could be a representation of the many others, which introduced the fast food industry to society. “Fast Food Nation” is a book written by Eric Schlosser in which he voices his thoughts on the corrupt fast food industry by using multiple writing techniques to support his argument.Įric Schlosser begins his book by introducing the reader to one specific region in the United States: Colorado’s “Front Range”. So, drive-ins were the perfect outlet and satisfied the needs of the new lifestyles Americans were now living. America was changing and so were the people, many were running low on change, in a rush, or just plain lazy to cook. Just like all creations, fast-food has a basis as to why it was first created.

Live For Today by Joe Barfield6/12/2023 My Accountant said I was being targeted before the IRS probes were revealed. Things became worse when I joined the Tea Party. I was audited four years in a row going back six. Four years ago it seems some of the things I wrote created problems. I have contacted my local Congress people and the President numerous times over the last twenty years. Some of my other works have gotten me in a little hot water when I printed essays about the government. Check out the trailer on Smashwords or YouTube.

Brief Summary of Book: Every Word Is a Bird We Teach to Sing: Encounters with the Mysteries and Meanings of Language by Daniel Tammet Fey tina6/12/2023 “Race has been kind of an Achilles’ heel for Fey and Carlock,” critic Alan Sepinwall told me in an interview for The 30 Rock Book, my new behind-the-scenes history of the show. But since its premiere in 2006, and especially in more recent years, the show-and Fey’s work more broadly, particularly her collaborations with 30 Rock co-showrunner Robert Carlock-has been critiqued for the way it treats race and racism. For seven seasons, 30 Rock won the hearts of critics and buckets of Emmys with its absurdist, joke-a-minute style, hyper-specific references, and distinctly female sensibility. It’s a passage that neatly sums up Fey’s comic sensibility, as well as what some believe are her blind spots-both of which were abundantly evident in 30 Rock, her beloved NBC sitcom. “Only in comedy, by the way, does an obedient white girl from the suburbs count as diversity.” “It seemed promising, because I’d heard that the show was looking to diversify,” she wrote in her 2011 memoir Bossypants. In 1997, Tina Fey interviewed for a job at Saturday Night Live. The land of stories 26/11/2023 And of course none of this is to say I haven't enjoyed these books, I truly have. That being said, Colfer is very young and very smart and I have little doubt that his tendency to self congratulate will dissapate as he matures as a writer. I get it, you're clever, you can stop beating me over the head with it. Which comes across as pompous and condescending to the reader. It isn't enough to write a great little bit of dialouge, there has to be a "see what I did there?!" moment immediately following it. The entire time reading these books I got the distinct impression that there is a LOT of self flagalting going on. Colfer definitely has a talent for storytelling, but it is so very obvious that he knows this. But the wink wink, nudge nudge quality to the writing makes me crazy. The characters are fun and interesting for the most part. 以你的名字呼喚我 by André Aciman6/11/2023 Aciman has published two other books: False Papers: Essays in Exile and Memory (2001), and a novel Call Me By Your Name (2007), which was chosen as a New York Times Notable Book of the Year and won the Lambda Literary Award for Men's Fiction (2008).

The feminine mystique book buy6/11/2023 Friedan wanted to empower women and remind them that they could make different choices for their lives. Once they realized that it was a collective feeling of emptiness, women could address the problem without use drugs and alcohol to try to fill the gaping hole in their lives. Many women could not identify why they were feeling this way, but as they began to share their problems, it became clear what the issue was. The Feminine Mystique was an attempt at getting to the heart of the problem. What she wanted to achieve was a linking of the stories that women were telling about dull and unfulfilled lives in a time of plenty in 1960s America. Some mistook the book for a military strategy in the fight for feminism and assumed that it encouraged hatred of all males.īook reviews of The Feminine Mystique make it clear that this was not the intention of Friedan at all. The Feminine Mystique was the roadmap for women to regain control of their lives. Women had won the right to vote and enjoy education, only to have that freedom halted in its tracks by marriage.

Brief Summary of Book: Shell Game (Kingdom Keepers, #5) by Ridley Pearson Dancing at Midnight by Julia Quinn6/10/2023 Going through a temporary break up with Kate at the time, body language expert Judi James told The Express that his ecstatic dancing showed 'there is the strong hint that William is trying to boast to Kate that he is relishing his freedom and is capable of having the most fun time without her'. He hasn't always needed Kate by his side to hit the floor and he was pictured boogying in the stands at Wembley in 2007 at the Concert for Diana alongside his brother Harry. She later claimed that her husband had been secretly practising his dance moves at Kensington Palace. He got full marks for effort, but that was about it as he waved his arms next to Kate. Taking part in a traditional welcome dance on the island of Tuvalu, Kate started the royal knees up, putting on her grass skirt and swaying in time to the music, eventually cajoling William into joining her. |
