Currently being the only reader and the first reviewer of this book is thrilling! Alright, let's start. So, this book is literally a conspiracy theory itself. Silas Orven is a man, a supposed time-traveller, who appeared in a private Facebook group in about 2024-2025 if I remember correctly. In that group he claimed that he came from the future to try and edit the timeline because humanity in his era of the future is having massive problems. If you can "edit" the timeline, it creates a new variable. Our current actions, if they are different, can create a new result and new future timeline. At first, people mocked him, trolled him, dismissed him completely. But when he began accurately predicting specific events, people were stunned and began taking him far more seriously. Some even started idolizing him and treating him like some kind of divine figure, even though he repeatedly said he wasn’t a prophet or anything divine and that no one should worship him. The guy became a sensation, basically. So in 2025 he published this book and then completely disappeared. No one knows where he is. No one can identify him. His name doesn’t even show up in any global database. Some of his most devoted followers genuinely believe he went back to the future, where he came from. I read the book, and it’s incredibly well-written. Some parts are genuinely disturbing; his descriptions of the future and the era he comes from are pretty terrifying. It's pretty dystopian. It’s impressive how he explains how time travel supposedly works, and he even touches on several taboo topics like Hitler, aliens and their origins, why they abduct humans, as well as God, the Bible, the Qur’an, who built the pyramids and why, whether humans will achieve eternal life, what happens after death, and so

Fistly,I want to express some doubts about the reliability of the narrator, Nick Carraway, who tells the life of the main character, Jay Gatsby, from his own perspective because Nick sometimes praises Gatsby and sometimes expresses critical thoughts about him. This situation shows that the narrator is not completely objective and tells the story according to his own feelings. Secondly, we see the American Dream theme from the beginning to the end of the story. The American Dream is the belief that no matter which social class people come from, they can become rich and successful through hard work. This thought is Jay Gatsby’s main motivation. His obsessive love for Daisy Buchanan and his hope that she will return to him one day lead him to work harder and do everything he can to become rich. The novel conveys this hope through the symbol of the green light. The green light comes from Daisy’s house, and when Gatsby looks at it, he sees his dreams and hopes. So the green light shows Gatsby’s dreams and the future he wants, and it also shows how unreachable the American Dream can be. In addition, Jay Gatsby organizes big and flashy parties to prove his wealth and to show it to Daisy Buchanan. However, this situation did not affect either Daisy or the other people. Because society was divided into two parts: “new money” (people who became rich later) and “old money” (people who inherited their wealth). Although Gatsby became rich through his own efforts, he was not appreciated and was even despised by society. Therefore, Daisy did not choose to be with him. This situation shows that for Daisy, social status and wealth were more important than love. Finally, Jay Gatsby was left alone at the end of his life despite his struggles. Nearly nobody came to his funeral. This

Asuman Susam ı ise buradan tanıdım, gördüm, sevdim. ne yazmış ise okudum. kuyacağım kitaplar listesine adını yazdım, kitap fuarında gördüğüm an, alacağım. Ben kitap fuarlarında yazarını dinleyerek, görerek, elime alıp baştan sona tarayarak, içime sinince kitabı alıyorum. kitap okursan için dolar. insan ne yerse odur. sözünü insan ne okur ise odur diye değiştirmişler. iyi insanlar kitap okur. okuduğun kitabı söyle, sana kim olduğunu söyleyeyim. kitabı best seller diye alıp okumam, zaten kitapçılar da best seller bakmam, yeni çıkan kitaplara bakarım, izlediğim yazarların kitaplarına göz gezdirir, okuyacaklar listeme yazar, kitap fuarında veya her zaman gittiğim sahaflarda arar, tarar, satın alırım. bulamadım ise gider, kütüphaneye orda okurum. İnsan okur ise içi dolar, içimizi abur, cubur ile doldurmayalım. kitap kurdunu ise seçimleri belirler, diğer zaman öldürmek için okuyanlardan. insan yaşamına anlam katmak için okur, iyi bir film seçer gibi, kitabını seçer. iyi bir tiyatro oyunu seyreder gibi, kütüphaneye gider, kitabın içine dalar, içini doldururur. yazının ana fikri okursan için dolar, yazarsan için dökülür olduğu için , bu cümle sık sık tekrarlanıyor, okuyucu...

we're entering a whole new phase in the darren shan series: hunters of the dusk is truly a “new era” book. after the events at the end of the previous books, darren is no longer just a half-vampire trying to survive—this time, he's pulled right into the heart of a much larger war, perhaps even fate itself. with this book, the emergence of the vampaneze lord and the growing threat between vampires and vampaneze becomes truly exciting. darren, along with mr. crepsley and harkat, sets off on a hunt to face this danger, and along the way, they visit new places and meet some very interesting characters—some friendly, others dangerously mysterious. the pace is, once again, gripping, but this time the tone is more political and strategic. it's no longer just about personal survival—the future of an entire race is at stake. darren is no longer just a participant in this world; he's becoming something much bigger. you can feel his growth in every chapter. themes like friendship, loyalty, and trust are especially prominent in this book. darren’s relationship with mr. crepsley and harkat deepens, and they truly feel like a team fighting side by side. i really enjoyed that sense of camaraderie. as always, the language is simple yet powerful—fast enough to finish in a single day, but with ideas and developments that linger. and of course, it ends in a way that makes you say, “i have to start the next one right away.” Hunters of the Dusk Darren Shan

Actually, I started reading this book to improve my English level. When I first found it, I thought it was written for children. Also, in the first part of the book, everything seemed very ordinary. But as I continued reading, I saw that the people in the book were actually living in a utopian world — they had no real feelings, they didn’t know colors, they couldn’t understand death, and they lived in a robotic and dull world. At that moment, I realized this was not really a children’s book, and that felt quite sad. The idea of people living in a place where there are no real emotions, no problems, and no uncertainty sounds exciting at first. But later, I felt how scary it is to live in a place where people can’t see the truth and don’t feel like real human beings. Jonas and the Giver had to carry all the memories and pain of the society. Then Jonas decided to run away to wake the people up and save them, which was very sad and emotional. In short, when we see a society where everything — even people’s future — is controlled from one center, it may look perfect. But when we understand that there are no human emotions or truths in that world, even the problems we face in real life start to feel more meaningful and beautiful.
