I finished Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill and (due a lot to the respect given to the MC's dogs) I had to rate it 4/4.

I read The Vision of Jenny Merkus by Hadassa Mor. I gave it 3/4.

Its genre is historical fiction and it's a good read for everybody who likes learning about other countries' history.

The last book I read, A Kingdom Forgotten, a fascinating had to settle for a 2 star rating due to some indifference in idea I have of the book.

I just read "into the water"by Paula hawkins. I would give it a 3/5 because it was a great book but it was very hard to follow in the beginning due to how often it would change perspectives.

Moby Dick by Herman Melville (1850) is one of those classic tales that everybody should read at least once.

More than just an adventure tale about the obsessed Captain Ahab and the crew of the Pequod hunting down the massive white whale, Melville has combined fiction with a virtual documentary about everything one needs to know about whaling in the mid 19th century.

Narrated by Ishmael, who features little in the story beyond the first few chapters, Moby Dick is a tale of revengeful obsession by a man who lost his leg to a whale, and is prepared to put the lives of his crew at mortal risk to fulfil his dream.

Perhaps a little long and detailed for some readers, this is nevertheless a must-read classic. 4 stars out of 5

The Magician's Nephew - 5 Stars every time

[Redlegs]

The Magician of Lublin by Polish Author Isaac Bashevis Singer is a delightfully quaint novel, originally published in 1960. It was written in Yiddish and translated to English by Elaine Gottlieb and Joseph Singer.

The Magician of the title is Yasha Mazur, from Lublin in Poland, who travels around the country performing shows featuring magic tricks, juggling, acrobatics, performing animals and other entertainments.

Yasha is married to Esther, who loves him deeply, despite knowing that her husband is a notorious womaniser, having several lovers at any one time. One of Yasha's regular lovers is Magda, his none too glamorous assistant, encouraged by Magda's mother, who is very fond of Yasha's generosity.

Yasha embarks on a trip to Warsaw for a performance that has been widely publicized, supposedly containing some new acrobatic tricks. On this journey, Yasha encounters several of his regular sweethearts, all of whom apply pressure to him for money or to make up his mind about the relationship and commit to marriage and a new life.

Yasha finds hi situation increasingly complex and entangled, to the point that he considers using his expert lock-picking skills to commit a burglary seeking money. Things go badly wrong, forcing Yasha to re-evaluate his situation and seek redemption for his life of deceit and immoral behaviour. He is attracted back to his Jewish religious roots, which he has ignored for most of his life.

The tone of the novel is often playful, and the writing is brisk and lyrical, always entertaining and a complete delight to read. The characters are simply wonderful.

Singer has written a compassionate, warm and spell-binding fable that is easy to enjoy and appreciate. 5 stars out of 5

The last book I read was The Warramunga's War by Grag Kater and I gave it 4 out 4 stars. It's a really good and interesting book about the second world war without being in the middle of the action in the battlefield.
