Frankly in Love by David Yoon

There are some books I would never pick up if it weren' t for review purposes and Frankly in Love is one of therm. I bad heard of this book and seen it all over Goodreads.

Within the first few pages of this book, I was all in. I think part of what was so engaging is that it's from he viewpoint of Frank Li, a teen of high school.

Game of Stars by Sayantani Dasgupta

Just like any 12-year-old girl, Kiran is just tying to figure out who she is. Unlike other 12-year-old girls, however, she has to0 deal with titles like "princess and "demon slayer (魔鬼杀手)”. She happens to be a princess from the Kingdom Beyond, a world where gods and demons existed. Now it is up to her to save the kingdom and be the hero.

Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith

This is a remarkable book. The depth of the story went far beyond my expectations. The author paints a picture of Lincoln, a portrait (肖像) of strength, determination, and sacrifice in the face of personal and national disaster. Although some readers may find it rude to use a great leader of the United States in a fictional action book for entertainment, Grahame Smith tries to preserve an air of dignity and honor in the character of Lincoln.

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。《世界主义》的作家Jo Usmar列举了她最喜欢看的几本书。

【1】细节理解题。根据Frankly in Love by David Yoon部分的I think part of what was so engaging is that it's from he viewpoint of Frank Li, a teen of high school.可知，我认为如此吸引人的部分原因是Frank Li的第三人称视角，Frank Li是个十几岁的高中生。因此，Frankly in Love给读者展示的是十几岁的人眼中的世界。故选A。

【2】细节理解题。根据Game of Stars by Sayantani Dasgupta部分的可知，Game of Stars不涉及性话题。因此，如果你不想读与性有关的书，你会喜欢Game of Stars。故选B。

【3】细节理解题。根据Abraham Lincoln:Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith部分的Although some readers may find it rude to use a great leader of the United States in a fictional action book for entertainment, Grahame Smith tries to preserve an air of dignity and honor in the character of Lincoln.可知，尽管一些读者认为，在一本虚构的动作书中，用美国的一位伟大的领袖来娱乐是粗鲁的，Grahame Smith还是试图保存林肯这个角色的尊严和荣誉。因此，Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter的特别之处在于，他与一位国家领袖有关。故选C。
