Many of the tools and ingredients called for in these gourmet recipes, making it rather complicated to cook. One example: chef’s torch. The book has nice photos though!

Sophie Calle is worth consuming! But this book gives a half-glimpse at some of her work. I wish it was a full retrospective.

It’s very nice to see a bound collection of contemporary, foreign photography artists that are just beginning their careers. My peers, essentially.

Pasi Autio, Wilma Hurskainen, Nelli Palomaki, and Saana Wang were my favorites from this collection.

I read the annotated version (Leonard Wolf) and even though the notes gave major plot keys away before they happened in the story, I understood so much more of the story than if I had read a normal version. It was bittersweet.

It is such a good suspense-filled story that I will probably read it again before I die. Also, I am now fully equipped to deal with a vampire attack, should the occasion ever arise.

This was in the “new books” section of my library, and I had been looking for books of architectural photography. When I read it, I learned that the photos were taken in the early 1990’s, but their content is so relevant to right now that I thought they had been taken last year.

Really gorgeous photos, and proves that walls do speak.

I LOVEEVAHESSE!

This book has so many images that really reveal her working style. It’s so helpful to see a conceptual artist’s process opened up like that. I’ve started to adopt some of her habits as my own.

The works, even scribbles and rough sketches are beautiful.

I read this book for my typography class, and it explains things that appear to be “common sense” for experienced designers but a mystical mystery to everyone else. It’s good to keep around as a guide that is probably quicker than trying to find an answer on the internet.

The novel moves quickly, a little too quickly at times. To help slow the pace, there are subtle vignettes that allude to the atmosphere of feelings; these are delicate, thoughtful, and fine-tuned. I liked this book mostly because of the characters.

Worth skimming, but if you read an interview of the author about the book, you’d probably glean just as much information as you might retain from the book.

This book touches on everything that has anything to do with ceramics. It’s a handy guide to keep in the beginning ceramist’s studio.
