When I was reading this book, I opened my imagination entirely.
It happened when the story beginning. Former British prime Minister named, Adam Lang is up against a firm deadline to submit his memoirs to his publisher, and the project is very dangerous. The writer is not only supplied the imagination story, but also the action story. It was Michael McAra who becomes the collaborator of Adam Lang. He is killed in a accident in the ferry, the coast of Martha’s Vineyard. The climax starting when a professional ghostwriter is hired to whip the manuscript into the shape, but the unnamed writer soon discoveries that separating truth from fiction in Lang’s recollections a challenge. Besides that, the writer (Robert Harris) gave the final decision about this story. Adam Lang may have been a murder. The sad ending happened.
Searching those real words was to be extinct dramatically. This book quickly describes me into its story before I realize why? I had to be detective when I read it spontaneously. The writers gave the humors in order to bring the differently catch from the readers. It’s an intelligent page-turner that includes the mutual and serious problem. Finally, I think about this book is good to read.

What did you like most about this book/article?
» I wondered the Bill Gates’ life journey and how he can get the success in Microsoft Incorporation. I have found his inspiring words in the page 23rd. He (Bill Gates) believes that if you are intelligent and know how to apply your intelligence, you can accomplish anything. Bill thinks that if you don’t work your hardest you will never succeed. He works very hard and very competitively to carry out his vision. He is also philanthropy by endowing a foundation with more than $24 billion to support philanthropic initiatives in the areas of global health and learning.
What did you like least about this book/article?
» I feel disappointed because it does not tell the author. I have got difficulty in understanding it especially about the names or the abbreviations of computer device which is mentioned in it. It should better to give a glossary in the last page.

There are good suggestion for parents, they are journey alongside the children, protect the value of those passages and become fellow travelers ion new universe.
What did you like least about this book/article?
»This article is the way to describe the story that made me confused because sometimes the story told me about mom’s ideas in her mind. So, I couldn’t differentiate between mom’s ideas and dialog or something that she shares with her daughter.
