Malia Scott maliajade — Good crime story mystery! He's one of my new favorite authors, after having read "The Lincoln Lawyer". And....he has Wizard of Oz references in this story!

Sfcd Team sfcdteam — One of Waugh's best.

Lin Ye derek1987 — Thank you to Grand Central Publishing and NetGalley for allowing me to review this book. It took me a while to get into the book, it was a long book (almost 400+ pages) and at times it seemed slow and dragged out to me. There was a lot of science fiction and I think that's what people mean when they say 'it was weird' or 'the weird parts'. While I'm not normally a huge fan of sci-fi, this was different. It was not my favorite dystopian novel, I did enjoy it. In this highly original post-apocalyptic novel the characters were likable and well developed. There was so much details in this book, I think that's why it took so long to get into the book. Even though it was a YA book, I think this is for older teens, this is very dark with violence disturbing elements, and death. It was creepy and compelling at the same time. Film rights for the novel Pure have been acquired by Fox 2000, it should be an interesting movie.

Maiyueyue Maiyueyue djmax00 — Howard Zinn didn't live quite long enough to be as disappointed in Barack Obama as a lot of us are, but in any case, he wouldn't have been disillusioned, because he wouldn't have been surprised. In Zinn's book, there has never been a U.S. president who was not a conservative at heart, and in practice. Zinn's founding fathers were at least as concerned with protecting the privileged status they considered natural to their class, race, and sex as they were with throwing off the oppression of other rich white men across the sea. His Lincoln was a liberator only because he was a pragmatic politician, and the patrician FDR's genius was in recognizing that Republican reactionary policy was breeding a revolution, a real socialist rain to wash the scum off the streets: the New Deal was nothing more than bread and circuses to placate the masses. It's impossible for someone of my political bent not to have had some Zinn filter down to me over the years, but a concentrated infusion of it has been as invigorating as it has been profoundly depressing. And if I were teaching American history in high school, I hope I'd have the courage to teach this book. Of course, if I did, I wouldn't last through freshman orientation week, never mind a full semester. But even a taste of Zinn would be a useful antidote to the my-country-right-or-wrong dogma that I'm sure still predominates in the classroom.
