The Indignation of Haruhi Suzumiya (light novel) (Volume 8) (The Haruhi Suzumiya Series, 8)

What I love about each book in the Haruhi series is that it places extraordinary people and epic events in the confines of ordinary slice of life settings rather than just have an epic battle in space or whatever.A new student council president becomes Haruhi's rival threatening to disband the literature club. In order to stop that, the gang has to each write stories. The stories each of them write definitely conveys their character. Nagato's story was the most interesting. She's always reading books and this is the first time she tried to write a story. This first half of the book is very funny.In the second half of the book, they are investigating what is happening with the neighborhood pets getting scared and sick. They end up trying to do an exorcism. There's already time travelers, aliens, and espers.. so why not throw in some evil spirits as well haha. Very fun second half of the book story.If you love any of the past books in the series or the anime, then this should definitely be your cup of tea.I always look forward to a new haruhi book in the series. They're all growing up and I'm very interested to know where they all go from here.

Excelent book, Just what I wanted!

These series of novels are a light and enjoyable read, with fun situations and characters. You get caught up in Haruhi's maniac plans as much as her long suffering brigade me members.

The Indignation of Haruhi Suzumiya is the eighth installment in the sometimes brilliant, but often meandering, franchise. The series is strongest when it focuses on a singular plot, thus allowing its rich concepts to coalesce into engaging, unforgettable tales. It's not surprising, then, that books one, four, and seven are the best of the bunch, as their single, self-contained stories provide enough sharp surprises and enticing revelations to push the series' entire narrative forward. Sadly, Indignation is yet another short story collection, providing two merely competent, middling reads and not much more.The first, "Editor in Chief, Full Speed Ahead," sees the gang forced to put together a literary magazine lest they be disbanded by the student council (therefore losing the Literature Room in which they concoct their shenanigans). It begins promising enough, with a couple of interesting, albeit minor, revelations about certain characters, and the short stories written by Asahina and Nagato are both entertaining reads (sadly, Haruhi provides nothing). But the climax involving Kyon's own entry--a romance story that might just provide the impetus he and Haruhi need to advance their own relationship--falls flat with an inconsequential payoff that leaves the status quo essentially unchanged.The second story, "Wandering Shadow," has a similar problem, but in reverse--it starts slowly with a mundane tale that slowly becomes more interesting by its second half. And while the conclusion is neither bombastic or otherwise enlightening, it does lay groundwork for some potentially significant developments in the upcoming books.Uninspired plotting aside, the translation is similar to the last couple of entries--competent but wordy. To be fair, the wordiness is likely the original author's fault, but either way, writing principles such as "show, don't tell" and "less is more" don't always seem to apply here. At least, thanks to the translator, it's usually clear when Kyon is either internalizing or speaking out loud. This ambiguity was an ongoing nuisance early in the series.Nonetheless, the truly great news is that, starting in the next book, a much more sophisticated narrative will begin to unfold for Kyon and his friends--one that will have tremendous effects on the entire cast and their universe. And right now, a serious, shattering threat is exactly what this staid series needs to recapture the magic of its first, most ingenious entry.

Chegou bem rápido. Estava com uma das pontas da capa levemente curvada, mas acredito que tenha sido por causa do transporte. Tirando isso, chegou em perfeito estado.
