Kaiky Fernandez fernandezkaiky — I know that this isn't a science book, but the lack of such really upset me. I mean, somehow the entire world got bombed, polar ice caps melted, and the United States is still around? New York City, Florida, and cities in California are mentioned, but wouldn't even be there if what is described in the book is true. And also, how is it that people die at age 20-25, but young teenagers are not only expected to have healthy pregnancies and babies, but actually do (well, except for the die at 20-25 thing)? A little more clarification on those things would've been nice. A lot of Rhine's beliefs in this book are presented as truths, but she has a horrible time convincing me of things. I didn't believe her when she said her husband was the one who kidnapped her and killed girls, even when she did for most of the book. I don't believe her when she says she fell in love with this one boy who she barely seems to know. I don't believe her when she says being free is ideal, because all of her flashbacks of her past life and brother seem pretty negative. All of these make her come off as very naive, despite her mature voice. The ending was also a bit... confusing. If Whither was a stand-alone book, and not in a series, I would have totally bought it and it would've been great. It wrapped up so nicely. But knowing that there's a sequel just confuses me, and I hope the next book doesn't feel stretched or forced. I really like the cover, as to many of those who read Whither, but I feel alone in the fact that I don't "get" it. Yeah, I see the birdcage and the wedding ring, that much is clear. It's more with the fact that the chill girl on the cover looks more like a model for an Alexander McQueen photoshoot than a child desperate to escape. Nope, she's just taking a snooze. No urgency here. I really enjoyed Destefano's writing style though, and she has a lot of beautiful, vivid imagery in here. Her words painted a clear picture to me, for the most part, of Rhine's world. The language is very poetic and lovely. All in all, it is very much like The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood, though Wither has a bit more angst to it's shock factor.

Brett Linker skyscraper — Comparing this to "The End of the Affair" makes me wonder if Greene made all sorts of conscious decisions about what kinds of books to write beyond that of novels vs. entertainments, for instance, literature composed predominantly of daring writing and arresting phrases vs. serious books almost entirely bereft of any interesting words or sentences at all. This one is one of the former, and pwns "The End of the Affair" into a cocked hat. The scene in which the Police Chief, the beggar and the Governor's cousin drink the wine is particularly great, but the book is pretty much one terrific scene after another up through Part Three, which I either find dissatisfying because it loses its urgency or else just read too fitfully in too many different sittings during a weekend in which I had too many drinks. I don't know if it coughed it up, or I did. Still, this is my favorite Greene so far, by far.
