Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets 豆瓣 Goodreads
9.0 (61 个评分) 作者: [英] J·K·罗琳 Scholastic Paperbacks 2000 - 9 其它标题: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
In one of the most hotly anticipated sequels in memory, J.K. Rowling takes up where she left with Harry s second year at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Old friends and new torments abound, including a spirit named Moaning Myrtle who haunts the girl s bathroom, an outrageously conceited professor, Gilderoy Lockheart, and a mysterious force that turns Hogwarts students to stone.

BL 6.0,AR 12,Word Count 77325,耗时一周。四级英语水平意外地能读,作为童书还不错,如同 Tolkien 塑造了浪漫新奇的架空巫师世界观。但剧情并经不起推敲,还是更喜欢贯彻现实主义的冰与火之歌。书本身之外的文学批评现象也不少,比如 J. K. Rowling 反复表演吃书,Terry Eagleton 很欣赏它并放进 How to read literature,Harold Bloom 却对之嗤之以鼻。

Pacific Rim 豆瓣
作者: David S Cohen Insight Editions 2013 - 6
From acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro comes Warner Bros. Pictures' and Legendary Pictures' epic sci-fi action adventure Pacific Rim.
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are piloted by an international crew of soldiers in the Pan Pacific Defense Corps. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee—team up to pilot a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger on a mission to halt the mounting apocalypse.
Pacific Rim: Man, Machines & Monsters chronicles the production of the film with stunning concept art, captivating photography, and cast and crew descriptions of the shoot.

Learn the real secrets of creating Web pages, and why everything your boss told you about HTML tables is probably wrong (and what to do instead). Most importantly, hold your own with your co-worker (and impress cocktail party guests) when he casually mentions how his HTML is now strict, and his CSS is in an external style sheet.

Best of all, you'll learn HTML and CSS in a way that won't put you to sleep. If you've read a "Head First" book, you know what to expect: a visually-rich format designed for the way your brain works.
