1 good books
«Хорошие книги». To be in someone's good books — создать о себе хорошее мнение у кого-либо. Выражение образовалось от более раннего определения слова book, которое означало лист бумаги. Goods books означает список друзей, а bad books («плохие книги») означает список недоброжелателей, врагов.Look, if you want to get back into your mother's good books, why not clean the bathroom whilst she's out? — Послушай, если ты хочешь вернуть расположение своей матери, почему бы тебе не вычистить ванную, пока она отсутствует?
