I was nowhere near New York on 9/11 or Boston in April 2013, and clearly the way those events affected me is something totally different and a teeny, tiny fraction of how the people who survived it were affected. As someone who could only watch and pray, I know I never can really get it. But Incendiary surely tried to make me. It threw me directly into the fire and forced me to imagine what it must have been like for the victims, survivors, and their families. A friend of mine said this about Incendiary: "This book sort of swept me up and whirled me along with it until the conclusion." That is just about the best way for me to describe what this book did to me. I don't know if it's because it's so soon after Boston but I was so emotionally wrapped up in this book, I found myself almost saying to my husband "Can you believe what happened in London? Those poor people." The images of barrage balloons over major cities and terrorism-induced lockdowns and general panic and helplessness were all too real. I do have a couple of criticisms: Some of the human behavior felt unrealistic. The style of the book (it is written as a letter that has been completely unedited) takes some getting used to. Incendiary is raw and painful and it left me emotionally hollowed out. This isn't a happy book. In fact, it will be a trigger for many, many people. But it is incredibly well-crafted and it is a powerful, powerful book. It will stay with me for a long time.
