I have to say that this book just wasn’t for me. There appear to be a lot of people who did like it, but I found it dry, with very little actually occurring. The synopsis on Goodreads made me think it was mostly about summer love and growing up, but I found the book to have a very different feel from all of that. I didn’t connect at ALL with any of the characters, which is a huge problem for someone like me who reads for character. Chase just didn’t come alive as a character for me. I didn’t understand him or any of his motivations. To me it felt like I was looking in through a window, observing these people, yet not really having a clue what they were actually saying. It also disturbed me that Claudia was so sexualized at such a young age. Right from the beginning I wondered why Shannon, a 15 year old boy, would be obsessed with an 11 year old girl. At that age four years is a huge difference. It just felt dirty and strange. The format of the book was also prohibitive to my enjoyment of it. Because the book takes you through four summers, you’re only able to get brief glimpses of time, but never actually the whole story. I wasn’t able to connect to the characters or feel anything about the plot, because it was all very patchy. Finally, there’s the whole Camus obsession. To be brutally honest, it made me want to smash my head into a wall. Who quotes philosophy like that? It was so strange to read about teenagers quoting Camus verbatim like that. I could understand a quote here and there, but no, it was full, lengthy passages that they somehow knew off the top of their heads. It didn’t feel realistic at all, and it was also pretentious and boring, and after a while I skipped over all the passages. I definitely recommend that you check out all of the positive reviews of this one. Who knows, maybe this will be a book for you. Perhaps it was just too literary for my taste, but I couldn’t make sense of most of it, and I really didn't enjoy it at all. I'm giving it a two because I could see glimpses of redeeming qualities in a couple of the characters, and because the writing was definitely strong.
The best story about a dog with a happy ending!!

there is something about winter that makes me want to read nazi germany, concentration camp era books. perhaps it is my solace in that reminding myself while yes it is cold- at least i do not have to wake up at 4 in the morning to do roll call and eat moldy bread. But this is beside the point. this book is more than your moldy bread we saw our family die in the ghetto/gas chambers. it is a story of the power of music and letting it ignite your soul.

Clever little stories about the misfortune of others.

Really good, loved the vignette aspect and thought it was cool how it went back in time. Good ending (although feel like I need to read the first two or three stories again to see how some of the characters ended up like the cook). Look forward to reading more of the author's work.

What happen if you fall in love with your best friend? No problem if you are a woman and he is a man. But if you are a gay guy and he is a straight guy, maybe troubles are coming. Jay is a little, tiny guy with an Angel shape who always has been in love with Dean, is neighboormate. When Dean knows about Jay's feelings he decides to try this thing, to makes love to Jay and sees what happen... Sex is wonderful and maybe a life together will be. But Dean is not gay, he is a womanizer, he loves women very much. And feels disgust if another man proves interest in him, but if this man is Jay, he feels only lust, and maybe love. Could he feels love for Jay, no matter what genre he is? Dean is an hunk man, with a dominant behaviour... and Jay is happy to loose control. I like very much this book. The way in which Dean approaches his feelings for Jay, how he understands that maybe is not only lust who draws him to Jay... The sex scenes are exciting, the book is very centered on the Dean figure, how he wonders why he enjoys so much sex with Jay, even if he is not gay... http://elisa-rolle.livejournal.com/22...

This series of books is one of the most thrilling, imaginative, well-written stories I have read in a long time.

fuck the deathbed edition. i mean, it came off the same hand, and it was a beautiful hand, but the vigor isn't there, the mysticism is tarnished. plus, that shit is CRAZY long. 'song of myself' is a whole different poem in the deathbed. read them both and you'll know what i mean.
hee hee -- he's good
