The good news: I finished it! It's over! The bad news: everything else. Vera lives in a world without water: it rains very little, and humankind has wasted (and/or drunk up) all the fresh water. State boundaries have changed; the US is no longer 50 states but 8 territories. The Republic of Illinowa is struggling to get water, battling with the Republic of Minnesota, who in turn is warring with the Empire of Canada for the fresh water that remains. Vera meets a new boy, Kai, who can somehow sniff out fresh water. (It's somehow implied that it's related to his diabetes, but that makes no sense. Except that's the implication, so.) Then he gets kidnapped, and even though she's known him for about a week, she insists that she and her brother launch a rescue mission. Which they do, and get themselves kidnapped by water pirates before ultimately needing to infiltrate the large-scale, only-for-profit desalination plant (that horribly pollutes everything and is only in it for the money). Lots of things don't make sense. Lots of (il)logical leaps. Lots of infodumps. And really, incredibly boring. There was nothing to encourage me to pick this up again, so I'm not certain why I finished it, because blah. Flat characters and a bland, boring plot.
Thorough as it should be, while Schama manages to bring style that is sorely needed in most history accounts this large.
A deliciously twisted roadtrip through American culture.

I hadn't read a "classic" in a long time, and a friend recommended this book to me (thanks Scar!). It was refreshingly well-written and Bronte certainly has a gift for language. I appreciated, in contrast to most modern novels, how the story was allowed to develop slowly, my feelings for Mr. Rochester were almost as strong as Jane's by the time anything feelings were admitted outwardly. It was very melodramatic, but the writing was beautiful enough, and it was so subtle in so many other was (and slow) that a little melodrama was actually quite welcome. I did find myself a little frustrated with the victorian values sometimes, and wanted to yell at Jane and tell her to just stay with Mr. Rochester, who should have simply divorced the crazy attic lady (which I know was probably not such an easy thing in those days, but still--to modern sensibilities it is frustrating).
I thought this book was an excellent, quick read that grabbed me from the start. While I did think this was a beautiful celebration of womanhood, I felt that the spirit of it waned a little in the second half. This book is made up of moments, some small and quiet, others very dramatic and traumatizing. Before you know it, these moments have collected into one woman's entire life and you are left looking back on an extraordinary life that took you on an emotional roller coaster. As religious as I am, I was not offended by the author's use of biblical characters because I read it as it was meant to be -- a fictional story (much like how The Da Vinci Code is meant to be read.) This is one woman's imagination on paper. I really enjoyed this.

If you like stories steeped in fictious Asian cultures, this one may be for you. The setting is richly depicted and there's no lack of plot content or twists. For me, Alexander falls just a bit short in terms of pure prose ability, at least in this one. I also found myself unable to buy completely into Tai as the focal heroine of the novel--maybe as a guy I simply don't understand "sisterhood" well enough to accept that Tai's role as ultimate sister to her friends is enough to earn her the honor of main character.

The first three books in Isobelle Carmody’s science fiction series, The Obernewtyn Chronicles, take place after a tragic event called the Great White has killed most of the population and caused some survivors to inherit special mental talents that allow them to read minds, coerce people and speak to animals. These people are called misfits and are unwanted members of society. Often hunted and killed by the government and fanatic religious groups, these misfits must hide their powers at all times. It is within this restricted world that we follow the main character Elspeth Gordie as she struggles to harness her hidden talent of mind reading and discover her true purpose in life. Elspeth is sent away to live at a mountain orphanage called Obernewtyn. When she discovers that the evil caretaker is experimenting on many of the teens, Elspeth and her new friends take over Obernewtyn and establish it as a safe haven for talented misfits. Elspeth and her community of misfits flourish in their secret retreat until a call from an important misfit in danger forces them to leave Obernewtyn's safety. While traveling to find the hurt misfit, Elspeth has a dream that foretells her destiny; she must find hidden weapons from the past and destroy them or the world as she knows it will end. This mission is important to Elspeth, but for now she must push it aside in order to help a rebel group over throw the government and return a missing gypsy to her people. The plot of the Obernewtyn Chronicles is intricate and multi-layered. Each book builds on the other and the continuing mysteries of what really happened to the past world and the true meaning of Elspeth’s destiny are slowly unraveled in each book. The only way to understand the characters complex relationships and the detailed world of Obernewtyn is to start at the beginning. Elspeth is a strong female character and because the entire story is written from her perspective, the reader gets to know her intimately. Full of adventure, political intrigue and fantasy world building, you are left hanging at the end of every book.
Omar Yussef is really a likeable character; a doting grandpa, who has the mettle to discern and confront a cynical world. Once again, a sad, yet enjoyable story which gives a taste of the nuances of life in and around Palestine.
