Keşke daha önce okusaymışım...
Tahsin Yücel’den okuduğum ilk kitaptı. Anlatımdaki ironik dili çok sevdiğimi belirterek başlamak isterim. Hiç bilmediğim, dilimizde belki de unutulmaya yüz tutmuş kelimeler not aldım kendime: kenterleşmek, çevren açmak, eytişim, sası bir koku, anıştırma, uzam içinde, gönderge, cimdallı, çift uskur… gibi. Yerelden evrensele ulaşamaya çalışmış,

Past Doctor Adventures: Fear of the Dark
"A facile argument!' roared the Dark. But even if there is no fear in death... then there is fear in life. Humans fear me; they fear the dark! They learn to fear it from infancy - what they cannot see, or know, or understand.' 'Exactly!' the Doctor said. 'Because fear of the dark is really just a fear of the unknown.

Acı çekmek bir tercih meselesidir
Hayatta her birimiz bir şeyleri başarmak için mücadele içindeyiz. Ya buna katlanır devam edersin ya da pes edersin. Yazarın da söylediği gibi 𝐚𝐜𝛊 𝐜̧𝐞𝐤𝐦𝐞𝐤 𝐛𝐢𝐫 𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐡 𝐦𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐫. 1980'lerden bu yana egzersiz sloganı olarak kullanılan "ℕ𝕠 𝕡𝕒𝕚𝕟, 𝕟𝕠 𝕘𝕒𝕚𝕟." mottosunu sadece egzersizde değil aynı zamanda hayatta başarıyı yakalamak

Captivating
I want to improve my English skills. So I decided reading English books. Firstly, if I read this book in Turkish, I wouldn't like that much. But in English, I think it was good choice for me. This book is really fluent. I couldn't put it away some midnights. I was curious about what was going on. But I reached middle of this book, I estimated the killer which was right :( Normally I don't prefer this kind of book, it is like a movie. (By the way its movie came out :)) But in English, it was really helpful for me for motivating to finish :)) I think book's characters don't explain themselves clearly. Normally I am really satisfaid that I understand characters deeply. But in that book it couldn't happen. If you are boring while reading these days or your aim is like me (improving reading skill in English), I highly recommended this book. Apart from these things I don't recommend. I don't understand why this book is loved too much :))

This book is the second part of a trilogy by Stefan Zweig, where he constructs a collective portrayal of European intellectuals by spotlighting significant figures. In this volume, focusing on Hölderlin, Kleist, and Nietzsche, Zweig explores three major German literary figures, illustrating how they embodied individuals with profound inner visions

Again, a captivating romance from Mariana Zapata...
( Başka bir sitede İngilizce olarak yazıp daha sonra buraya çevirisini yazmaya karar verdiğim ancak çeviri işini yedi aydır ertelediğim bir inceleme… Artık pes edip direkt İngilizce versiyonunu buraya da koyuyorum, umarım bir gün düzenleme fırsatı bulurum. ) I LOVE reading Mariana Zapata books. So this review is a little bit about Kulti, and a

4/5 Stars (%76/100) I think this is a must-have for hardcore Tolkien fans. If you are not a huge Tolkien fan, you probably don't need this book. The book's format is almost like a PhD dissertation. It consists of three main parts which can be called essays. There are a lot of notes, footnotes, extra information etc. Some of the notes are not complete because of Tolkien's writing and most of the book seems to be collected to create one huge note. This is why some of the parts are not really connected to each other. However, all of this does not mean that it is a bad or disorganized book. There are A LOT of useful information in my opinion, especially in the first part where we learn about how time and ageing work in Tolkien's universe. I did not expect it to be so mathematical with all these formulas. In short, if you are a die-hard Tolkien fan, you should definitely get this and read it at least once. Otherwise, for others it might not be too appealing or fun.

inspiring and convincing
I thought such books are just doing emotional manipulation and they are far from real life. But now I really find this book as a guide book or Bible for managing your business. I also believe the principles in the book might be applicable to managing business or personal life. Below you will find the parts I underlined in the book while

Maybe hopelessness is freedom.
Seems absurd that Estragon and Vladimir forget that it's not the first day they've been waiting for godot,they don't even remember the messenger already told them "tomorrow without a doubt", they don't seemingly realise they're living in a cycle but they continue to wait something that's not coming,hoping it will. Maybe they want to forget that this routine already happened because if they didn't forget they would remain hopeless. Is it so bad to be hopeless? Or is hope that makes us suffer? Waiting and waiting until your strengths break. Maybe hopelessness is freedom.

The only way to learn is to live” Fuck, this book hit me so hard. I finished this book a few days ago and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. It has one of my favorite themes or tropes in a book, where we follow a main character who at the beginning of the story is very depressed and possible suicidal and doesn't see the point of life, but then slowly throughout the story begins to build an admiration toward humanity and life. This book was so beautifully written and I love the way this book asks the question: what is the best way to live? “Between life and death there is a library, and within that library, the shelves go on forever. Every book provides a chance to try another life you could have lived. To see how things would be if you had made other choices… Would you have done anything different, if you had the chance to undo your regrets?” It's a really cool concept, that between life and death you enter the midnight library, where you get the opportunity to see how your life would've been different had you made different decisions. I think a lot about this, what my life would be like had I made different choices and wondering if I'm the happiest version of myself? This book forces you to ask hard questions, like what makes a life worth living? And are your dreams for yourself really something you want? I love the way this book talks about regrets and how most of the time our regrets are a load of bullshit of things that are out of our control and they are causing a major burden on our life. “A person was like a city. You couldn't let a few less desirable parts put you off the whole. There may be bits you don't like, a few dodgy side streets and suburbs, but the good stuff makes it worth-while.

2/5 Stars (%45/100) The concept is good: Twins created by alchemy who have reality-bending powers related to language and maths. However, the execution falls short in my opinion. The world feels dull and empty. It's mostly plot-driven in my opinion, and that's why I didn't really care about any of the characters maybe Reed at some point. Eventually, finishing it became a chore because it was too long and overly complicated (jumping from time to time, place to place). I love unique sci-fi but this was closer to fantasy because the science element is mostly missing. This was my first book by the author and I'm fairly disappointed because she is an award-winning author and this book apparently won some too. I don't know how some people "worship" the book and the author or that this book is THE best book they've ever read. In short, you could give it a go, but don't expect too much.
