E. Hinton fits in the Juvenile Fiction genre.  It was first published in 1967 and is recommended for people age 12 and up. Summary and Review: The Outsiders tells the shockingly realistic story of two gangs, the Greasers and the Socs (as in Socials).  Ponyboy Curtis tells the story from the side of the Greasers because, as he puts it, “Someone should tell their side of the story, and maybe people would understand them and wouldn’t be so quick to judge a boy by the amount o 2008-05-09 15:25:25 PDT http://technorati.com/search/bookwormburrow.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/the-outsiders-by-s-e-hinton/ 6 11 Bookworm Burrow http://vglosers.dirtmound.com/article.php?story=20080509182425621 http://vglosers.dirtmound.com/article.php?story=20080509182425621 Fri, 09 May 2008 15:24:00 -0700 DiRT's review of Invincible Iron Man 1 has been posted at SuperheroTimes.com! Matt Fraction has made himself into one of the most respected writers at Marvel Comics, and this issue exemplifies why. First of all, Fraction has turned Tony Stark back into the fun-loving playboy who snuggles with super models and zips into space to do some repairs to the space shuttle. Secondly, he brings a rational fear to Stark that ties perfectly into his motivations for continuing to be a hero.

We found a new roommate to take over our room in the shared house starting May 15 (he’s already paid us back our deposit and he’s given Angela 1 1/2 months’ rent). We’ve packed all of our stuff that we won’t be using for the next 4 days, so it’s all ready to go to Steve’s mom’s house for storage.

Today I got the deal: with a name like that, and his history, I figured he was, like, 50. Turns out, he's the age of my (younger) sister. (yes, the one with the mansion... and my two amazing nephews.

The villain has some real reason for what he does rather than seeking the world’s destruction because he’s just plain evil, as classic villains typically are, and he actually undergoes some character development. The most interesting of the three main characters was Raoden, probably because he was pursuing the real mystery of why Elantris fell and wh 2008-05-09 15:17:18 PDT http://technorati.com/search/www.gryphonmountain.net/archives/bookcomm/elantris-is-a-pretty-good-read 12 32 http://historicalpresent.blogspot.com/2008/05/richard-d-altick-deadly-encounters-two.html http://historicalpresent.blogspot.com/2008/05/richard-d-altick-deadly-encounters-two.html Fri, 09 May 2008 15:13:38 -0700 Deadly Encounters: Two Victorian Sensations by scholar Richard D. Altick (1986, reprinted 2000) is a lively study of two lurid crimes that occurred in 1861 and enthralled the London public and the press. Altick makes a persuasive case that the excitement generated by these trials directly impacted the genre of sensation fiction, in its infancy at the time of the trials, but increasing in popularity throughout the decade of the 'Sixties. The most successful sensation novelists were Mary Elizabeth 2008-05-09 15:13:38 PDT http://technorati.com/search/historicalpresent.blogspot.com/2008/05/richard-d-altick-deadly-encounters-two.html 16 21 http://bhorner3.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/on-screen-the-shawshank-redemption/ http://bhorner3.wordpress.com/2008/05/09/on-screen-the-shawshank-redemption/ Fri, 09 May 2008 15:13:05 -0700 SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION | Hope is a good thing Probably my favorite movie of all-time. I used to love Stephen King books, and I didn’t see this movie - based on a novella by King - in the theaters because the film versions of his books had been so bad up to that point. But I saw a clip of the film during the Academy Awards and thought I’d catch it. It was on pay-per-view in the fall of 1994, if I recall, when I was Atlanta for a big newspaper equipment exposition.

Anyone familiar with Jim Starlin's recent space epics will find themselves at home with Rann/Thanagar Holy War. Combining the the original Rann/Thanagar War series with aspects from 52, Countdown to Adventure, and Countdown to Mystery, Starlin has pieced together a story based upon the new religions that have taken root on the enemy planets of Rann and Thanagar.

I actually spend most of my time reading, but that’s mostly on the web–techie stuff, blogs, news, and millions of emails. I don’t get much of a chance to read fiction just for fun except in my, uh, “office”.
