Excellent. It's really her writing that got me, so beautiful, so evocative.

Full disclosure: I didn't finish this book and I don't think I ever will. I hated the tone of the book. It's too brash.

Humorous and page turning.

A few thoughts I had while reading this book: "Kind of a kitchen-sink book." "It's like a grown-up Twilight, kinda. But more intelligent and less angsty." At the last line: "Wait, that's it? Where's the rest of it." "Please don't make me wait forever for the sequel."
I really had to struggle to get through this one. It had it's moments, but it mostly reminded me of one of those indie movies that jumps around a lot between narratives and has absolutely no plot, only this one just wasn't that entertaining. Also, I really loathe books where the author obviously has to let her readers know she's intelligent by using all kinds of vocabulary that no one would ever use in every day life! I also think that this is one of those books where you need to be from where the book takes place to get half of the euphemisms (in this case - Scotland) as most of the slang when RIGHT over my head. Anyway, glad to be done!

heather... will we ever get to this now that portfolio is finished?
The novel's strong suit is it's ability to keep up the suspense throughout the story. It's generally fast-paced and definitely kept me turning the pages. Without this pace, the novel's weaknesses would have been a lot more obvious. Instead, they stayed slightly nagging at the back of my mind until I finished the novel. While the characters were easy to sympathize with, they each only seemed to have one emotional mode. They did round out into believable humans at the very end, but I would have enjoyed a greater emotional range earlier on. The world was well-described, but it felt to me like a stage where secondary characters had no life once they left the scene. As an example, the jungle natives were mentioned several times, yet we never saw a single one in all the time we spent roaming around in their territory. Also, some major story details were left unexplained. For example, Shannon has exceptional hearing and repeatedly hears the attack helicopter coming in the distance. But, at the critical life-or-death moment, he doesn't hear the helicopter until it's at close range and actively shooting at him. I should mention that I don't think non-Christians would enjoy this book, partly because it contains a lot of theology and partly because God plays a major underlying role in the story. I also questioned the theology at times. There's a minor character who says that God is playing a chess game with Satan and that the human pieces might not obliging move into their critical position in his plan (which would lose the game) so God's having to manipulate some of the pieces to get them into position. While the other characters don't completely agree with her ideas, I was baffled by such a pagan, non-Biblical theology coming from someone who's implied to be a Godly woman. In the novel, there was no cussing or sex. There were several supernatural elements (visions from God and demon possession). Overall, I'd rate this novel as good, clean fun.

Excellent source for learning how God leads us step by step.
Adore Edith Wharton. There are some brilliant and poignant moments in this book, but the plot is not quite as compelling, nor the characters as memorable as some of her other novels.

I really like this short manga story. It's about a girl who really understand the meaning, "If you work hard, put your heart and soul in it you will achieve whatever you want". It's also about finding yourself and make the choices that you will not regret later in life.
