Trials of Passion

Trials of Passion is a thoroughly fascinating book that explores the insanity defense over time through the lens of four different crimes if passion. The authors expertise shines throughout. The effect of societal attitudes to gender and class and madness are fully explored and laid out. The primary flaw is that sometimes the writing is a bit clumsy.

This was a nice coming of age story set in post WWII America. It dealt with gender stereotypes but in a very positive manner. I would say I find it hard to believe that there was no homophobia at the time period( I know there was) but the author chose to focus on the girls. I also think pre 1960's being gay wasn't shamed or hated as much. It was really quick read with agood messege about being true to yourself.

"Lately, I’ve gotten really into her. I know a lot of people who like her, but it tends to be girls and…I’m not one to reinforce gender stereotypes, and I think it’s important to listen to female singer-songwriters next to your Slayer and Descendents. Begin To Hope has had some big pop hits, like “Fidelity”. I know people who can’t get down with the lyrics, and she does quirky things with her voice. But it’s a great album."

almost no limits placed on your creativity when creating a sim, with a great amount of fluidity/ variety of options allowing your sims to have unique body shapes and gender preferences (2 more)

beautiful graphics

just so much fun which so many possibilities for your sims

despite the range and effects of character traits being great and varying, they have a drastic impact upon sims' moods which sometimes change so frequently that it is hard to get anything done (although this can just be part of the fun!!) (0 more)
