I loved this book of essays. I am not sure if you need to be a knitter to fully appreciate these writings but it helps. Each essay was wonderful, full of heart and soul. I have been reading Rachael's blog for years, and knew some but not all of many of the stories. I knew about Lala, and watched the relationship grow on the blog, little Mama and the love and sadness when she died, the blanket that was sent to heal, and Digit. I don't know how many times I have read the post about Digit's return on the blog. It is what every animal owner who has lost a pet wants to read. It gives me a lump in my throat every time. I was one of the people who contributed to his vet bill, and it was nice to read appreciation. The essay's in the book gave me more 'back story' and more of the impact on Rachael's life. I could have read many more and hope she continues to write this way. Rachael's voice is true in these stories. Lovely, and loving. Highly recommended

I loved this book so much that I've read it twice. I love books with different perspectives and this just strengthened that love. It was a little weird at times when 28 year olds were saying that they loved 12 year olds but other than that it was really good. I also loved that Amanda Welch had the same middle name as me because hardly any girls have the same middle name as me. Parts of this book made me laugh out loud and I had to stifle my laughter during class. This book was AMAZING!

Wonderful stories from the Pacific Northwest. A must for anyone who likes native myths.
I was completely captivated by "A Brief History of Montmaray" The plot builds with such subtle skill that I was absolutely sucked in to the breathtaking conclusion--even as I had kind of figured out most of the "revelations" along the way. What I love is that it goes from describing all the quirky, endearingly hum-drum aspects of everyday life (as "everyday" as it can be for the few remaining members of the royal family of Montmaray in their crumbling castle on an island two hundred miles from anywhere in Europe) to being this heart-pumping adventure of political intrigue and family tragedy and, ultimately, of hope. The characters are what really sold it for me, though. It's a cast of characters that, in less skilled authorial hands, could be laughable characatures but here it all seems absolutely plausible: the insane king; his stalwart, beautiful and bookish teenage daughter; the good-hearted, easygoing (too easygoing) nephew and reluctant heir to the throne (off to University in England); the niece on the cusp of adulthood (our narrator), who learns lessons about love and responsibility and heritage and progress; the other niece, Henrietta-who-prefers-to-be-called-Henry and wishes she was a boy (and acts like one); Simon, the son of the housekeeper who is so handsome and outgoing and with whom our narrator may possibly be in love--or, at least, deep infatuation. There are family secrets and Nazis and storms and peril. The distant allure of London and civilization beckon, yet crumbling Montmaray Castle holds fast to our narrator's heart. I've no doubt it will stay in mine, too. This is classified as "historical fiction" and while the entire Montmaray family and "kingdom" is the fiction aspect, many key figures and events of WWII are woven into the story so skillfully and seamlessly. I think this is what all good historical fiction is about--giving you characters you really care about and enticing you to read THEIR story, while along the way you might actually learn something--or remember something that you forgot from much less interesting textbooks. As for the inevitable comparisons to "I Capture the Castle"--I really don't think there are many besides that it's a coming-of-age story featuring a scribbling teenager living in a decrepit castle. And that both are quite good ;-)

As I started this book, I was reminded of how much McKinley's books are like having a baby. Once the connection is made, the memory of travail fades. She uses so much exposition in her book, that it is easy to feel overwhelmed. After a few chapters of Spindle's end, though, I was so enrapt with the story, that I didn't mind. Loved it, and I think it would make a wonderful movie. Strong female characters, as usual.

I liked this much more than American Psycho, but that's not saying much.

I really love this book. I read it to my students last year, and it still cracks me up. I'm impressed that Sachar's jokes have an amount of sophistication, though the writing is very straightforward. This is a wonderful book to read aloud, or to give to a kid who doesn't love school.
