James Sabolcki _ust_james — This is a strange yet fascinating novel. Would be great for book groups.

Tim Palmer _palmer85c337 — Gopnik really repeats himself a LOT. I was prepared to LOVE this book, and wanted to hear lots of personal details about Lincoln and Darwin's lives. The endless chapters on their speeches/writings just didn't tell me what I wanted to know. and he made rather grand assumptions about our familiarity with their writings. So it was just OK.

Justine Pido _ustine_ido — Gorgeously written and managing to be at the same time both warmly human and puzzlingly mythical, this book is not easy to categorize. It will probably be of most interest to older teens and adults, as the main character is an old woman named Maddy looking back at events - and a relationship - that happened to her as a teen and young woman. There are fairy-tale elements (Maddy's young man, whom she calls Feather, is an otherworldly sort of person) and moments when (as during the fight between the Kraken and the Leviathan, which all sorts of talking sea creatures gather to watch) I was reminded very much of Alice in Wonderland. The whole premise, as one discovers at the end, is built on a magical or mystical idea - and yet this is also a very down-to-earth tale in some ways. Maddy is a solid if solitary girl, whether traveling around the world with her father, falling in love with Feather, or sailing alone through enchanted waters - and the lovely simplicity of the narrative voice reflects that. Highly recommended for the exquisite writing - and the poignant ending.

Huang Tina 5241188816e7a — This is an intricately woven story that is predictable but fun. Twin brothers are separated at birth and years later hilarity ensues. I enjoyed it for the most part, but the humor was a little too slapstick for me at times, a little too exaggerated. There were times when the characters were beating up on each other a la The Three Stooges, and I found it more uncomfortable than funny. Not Shakespeare's best, but worth reading.

Margo M create1day113e — Transports you to another world, and is a wild ride to boot. Close to what Mumbai is actually like I would think.
