RATING: 2 Out Of 5 I'm keeping this short, as I don't believe this book deserves a long/detailed review: It’s a shame that the author wasn't able to push this clever concept to its full potential. I'm afraid it falls short, which is a real shame. The story/writing style within this novel is quite childish than most of the young adult books currently out there and honestly, at times it was very boring with nothing happen throughout most of the book. What I think let this book down the most was the love story, you never fully see how Cassia falls in love with Ky (well I didn't understand the love story between the two of them, felt kind of fake) only that they have a connection through their love of the past but their love is never fully explored, she just kind of wakes up one day and says I'm in love with him (also I never liked Ky, there was nothing about him that made me like his character). Also poor Xander (I was team Xander throughout the book) I really liked Xander he was probably my favourite character in the book as Cassia was very boring and uninteresting. A very disappointing read and I very much doubt I will read the next ones.

Really a great read. I haven't read that much Mormon history but what I have is all Nauvoo-era or before. That early stuff is wonderful but I always feel strangely about it since we have an awkward ownership of that time. But David O. McKay and everything surrounding his life in the church is the church that I know, love and hate. Prince really does a great job and God bless the very careful Aunt Clare.

I wonder when NYRB Press will put this out. He's just their sort of thing--very big in his day and now kind of forgotten.

The prose is a beautiful at parts, but too often it gets caught up in its own beauty. In spite of the overall slowness, I found the way that Ishiguro played with the idea of memory and storytelling in general to be fantastic. The final third of the book was a welcome change of pace from the meandering nature of the first two thirds. It would have been nice to have had more details or action revealed throughout the entire story, rather than piling them on in a sudden burst of revelation after revelation. Overall, I enjoyed the book, and I would like to read more by Ishiguro. I was not impressed by the overall slowness of the book, but found the writing to be quite enjoyable at times.

What happens when a very sharp woman finds herself in partnership with a failed detective only to discover that the detective was never quite what he claimed to be? What happens when that same failed detective commits suicide and leaves that detective agency to that same woman? Can she operate under the methodological standards her deceased partner has given her, vicarious words of wisdom from James’ other protagonist, Chief Superintendent Adam Dalgleish? My impression is that a very satisfying tale unwinds, twisting and turning through an upper class English family that keeps the proverbial stiff upper lip rather too well. To paraphrase the bard, something appears to have a rank scent in Cambridge. James’ protagonist, Cordelia Grey has to move from the clear-cut suicide of her former partner into the murky world of an apparently clear suicide by the son of a famous biologist. In scrutinizing the scene for the cause of said suicide, she wanders between the sheltered academic world of the Cambridge colleges and the inveterate concern for funds in the scientific research community. Somewhere, either in the demesne of the dons or the laboratory of the learned, is a secret that could illuminate this inexplicable death of a young man who seemed to be at peace. Of course, part of the beauty of this novel is the tightrope James walks between playing off gender vulnerability with her new protagonist (at least, at the time of the writing of this first book in the series) and celebrating gender competence in Cordelia’s courage and cleverness. The cliché of gender weakness is overcome by heroic effort on several occasions without losing the femininity and humanity of this protagonist who seems both genuinely attractive and unwilling to risk authentic intimacy. I’m looking forward to reading more in the series. I want to know what becomes of this admirable woman, her detective agency, and any relationships she might sustain. Somehow, James has put together the best elements of her police procedurals with Dalgleish and classic private detective stories to give us something fresh at the same time it offers something familiar. There are no wisecracking gumshoes here, but there is plenty of suspense and flavor.
