Some funny parts....some of it is kind of slow.

This was a really good book! I really enjoyed it! It wasn't as suspenseful as I was expecting, but still very good! I would recommend it as a great book to read. And if you're a fan of Scott Westerfeld, you'll definitely enjoy it! (Note to Ane: I don't know how well you'd like this book seeing as how you're a mystery-sleuth and have the whole story figured out by page 30, but seeing as how you liked Uglies, you might also like this one by Scott Westerfeld! :)

The title lies--it's not really about an idiot. It's about a really naive, innocent man experiencing the evil of the world. The character dynamic is wonderful.
Love, love, LOVE this book. It made TAKS okay.

The first book by Keyes I ever read and still have a soft spot for it. My favorite part of the book is probably when the Mammy and Daddy Walsh and Helen come and visit. Turning Mammy Walsh loose on Los Angeles was the best kind of funny.
** spoiler alert ** Very moving tale of womanhood and growing up with rich detail and moving feelings. Favorite quotes (some spoilers): "If you want to understand any woman you must first ask about her mother and then listen carefully. Stories about food show strong connection. Wistful silences demonstrate unfinished business. The more a daughter knows the details of her mother's life - without flinching or whining - the stronger the daughter." pg.2 "I would be a woman soon and I would have to learn how to live with a divided heart." pg. 86 "Why had no one told me that my body would become a battlefield, a sacrifice, a test? Why did I not know that birth is the pinnacle where women discover to become mothers? But of course, there is no way to tell this or to hear it. Until you are the woman on the bricks, you have no idea how death stands in the corner, ready to play his part. Until you are the woman on the bricks, you do not know the power that rises from other women or even strangers speaking an unknown tongue, invoking the names of unfamiliar goddesses." pg 224 "The painful things- Werenro's story, Re-nefer's choice, even my own loneliness- seemed like the knots of a beautiful necklace, necessary for keeping the beads in place. My eyes filled as I bade farewell to those days, but I felt no regret." pg. 264 "In the moment before I crossed over, I knew the priests and magicians of Egypt were fools and charlatans for promising to prolong the beauties of life beyond the world we are given. Death is no enemy, but the foundation of gratitude, sympathy, and art. Of all life's pleasures, only love owes no debt to death." pg. 320 "Egypt loved the lotus because it never dies. It is the same for people who are loved." pg.321
I liked this book a lot. Thought-provoking story prompted discussions about culture and what it does to us without our being fully aware. The author manages to combine history and political science and religion and medicine without having it feel like a lecture. She also manages somehow to make both sides of the traumatic story understandable. It's a book that encourages compassion, and I think we can't have too much of that these days.
The first of the series and certainly the best.

It takes several re-browsings to get all the hilarity out.
