I was so excited to find this book after falling in love with Ryan and Selznick's other book Amelia and Eleanor Go for a Ride Based on a True Story "When Marian Sang" did not disappoint! My book came with a companion cassette recording which I thought was just going to be of Marian's famous Lincoln Memorial performance but was actually a narration of the story. What I liked about this: we got to hear the songs from the book--isn't it neat to KNOW what the songs are supposed to sound like, rather than guessing? Especially for something historic. What I did NOT like: this was NOT actually Marian Anderson's actual performances (I wanted to hear HER voice!) and it took a really, really long time to "read" with all those songs--some of them were very very slow. So, I ended up switching it off half way through and just reading the book. As for the BOOK itself: Marvelous! I love how Ryan conveys such humanity and spirit amidst good historical detail. I thought this was a wonderful and balanced portrayal of an amazingly talented woman who also happened to become an idol of the civil rights cause (as the historical notes state, she was not always comfortable with this designation!) This is not a "poor me" story, despite the obsticles she faced. Selznick's artwork is so captivating and moving--I absolutely loved it! You can almost HEAR Marian sing just by looking at her soulful eyes and expressions. Be sure you read the notes at the back of the book. Selznick's actually brought tears to my eyes!!! After I finished this, I went on YouTube to find some of Marian's performance so I could actually hear HER sing. Quite moving. I highly recommend the whole reading/listening experience!

Originally posted on ThirstforFiction.com From many years into the future; Kyle Straker is a teenager from the past. Two years ago, several tapes were discovered in an old house. Tapes, or audio cassettes, are an old technology dating back approximately to the latter half of the 20th century. On these tapes, Kyle Straker recalls the disturbing occurences of one particular day in his rural village’s talent contest where, after volunteering to be hypnotised by his best friend, the world he closed his eyes on was not the world he opened them to. There is only one way I can accurately describe 0.4: weird, and nothing like what I expected. Consisting of transcripts of tapes of Kyle Straker recalling an abnormal summer’s day in his small village of Millgrove in Cambrideshire, I couldn’t help but wondering whether 0.4 was being presented in the wrong format; perhaps an audio book/radio play would have suited this debut novel by Mike Lancaster better? 0.4 presents a unique idea, and one that will probably disturb you. I’m not sure I’d want to delve into Mike Lancaster’s imagination if he writes things like this, because truly, 0.4 creeped me out! 0.4 is what I like to call subtle sci-fi: sci-fi that permeates each page without making it too obvious. It’s not the intergelactic-space-travel hardcore sci-fi, but the kind of sci-fi where humanitarian ideas are explored and the focus is on the characters rather than the actual science-fiction. And what’s more, Mike Lancaster isn’t trying to sugar-coat 0.4 to appeal to the paranormal-romance fans, as many recent sci-fi novels have done in the last year or so (I Am Number Four and Across the Universe come to mind). 0.4 is quite a short novel: at 273 pages double-spaced text, it doesn’t take long to read, and I think that is part of the reason why none of the characters are really fleshed out much, including Kyle Straker. As the narrator of 0.4, you would expect to be a pretty concrete character. That being said, the main characters are all defined reasonably well, and Kyle particularly is easy to connect to and read about. He would have to be my favourite of the lot. Much like me, he likes to find things out and doesn’t like being ignorant. Then again, 0.4 requires Kyle to be your run-of-the-mill everyday guy. continue reading...
