Book chat and reviews. Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith. Jun 10th, 2009 at 11:08 PM. In terms of characterisations, Leo and Raisa are both well crafted and I found that the development of their relationship moved me deeply. Overall an excellent book that explores the daily horrors of life in a dictatorship alongside its central theme of seeking to bring a child killer to justice. On a side note, the cover art on both hardback and paperback is superb capturing a strong sense of the stark themes within the novel.

I must, must, must complement this place. 11:45 PM Friday, my roommate gets a call from her father that her mother has gone into the hospital emergency room. She's a wreck, my other roommate is helping her, and I start doing research for nearby hotels. One of the big issue: cats. Two housecats. Which we can't leave in the house. So I call for a hotel near the hospital that will accept cats. The Internet tells me that La Quinta inns will take small pets. Post a new comment. We will log you in after post.

Class Act from a Supermarket Chain: goodservice
http://goodservice.livejournal.com/52962.html
Class Act from a Supermarket Chain. I just started a prescription for something I expect to be taking for a long time. Let's call it Placybo. I dropped off the prescription at the Safeway pharmacy and was told to come back in ten minutes. "Okay," I said, "I'll just do my shopping and then come get the medication.". He could have gotten money out of me every month for years, but instead he chose to save me money even if it meant losing my account. Class act! Post a new comment. Post a new comment.

This happened a while ago but it still makes me smile. If you live in a flyover state or in Arizona then you know that QuikTrip is the best gas station in the world. I'm obsessed with their tea, so i go in almost every day (around the same time as i go on my way home from class) so i usually see the same people working there. It didn't bother me to wait and i never mind paying the 75 cents to get some fresh-brewed wonderul but he gave them to me anyway. Post a new comment. We will log you in after post.
