I had a hard time adjusting to the "syntax" of Jack's voice, but I felt that Emma Donoghue really explored the plot enough to satisfy the reader (i.e. what happens after the main event (don't want to give it away)) Nice review! Happy Reading!Janelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08291078088994851628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8522843196864744138.post-18731224661315004392011-01-10T21:49:21.871-05:002011-01-10T21:49:21.871-05:00I read this book with my mouth hanging open and li...I read this book with my mouth hanging open and lived in it for several days (read: daze) after finishing. Not great literature, I confessed later, very reluctantly. But the child's voice IS the journey, and his story is gruesome... and trying to see him and his existence from his mother's point of view is soulically excruciating for another mother. <br /><br />If you search for new Angela_Okhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08082072085419347411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8522843196864744138.post-45527655484858020382011-01-09T18:59:39.849-05:002011-01-09T18:59:39.849-05:00Great review; I'll have to read this one.

If you haven't read "The Glass Castle" by Jeannette Walls, I highly recommend it. It's one of my favorites and is told from the perspective of a child, which gives everything in the book an interesting perspective.genericwhitegirlhttp://www.myblistblog.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8522843196864744138.post-91544752425275840752011-01-09T16:52:38.692-05:002011-01-09T16:52:38.692-05:00I read this last month, and I also really liked it...I read this last month, and I also really liked it.
