Maged Magdy magedmagdyc14e — This is the third Anita Shreve book I've read, and they are among my favorite books every time. This tells the story of a woman escaping NYC and her abusive husband and heading to a sleepy Maine fishing town. While the story itself is intriguing, the medium in which it is told makes the book stellar. It is told in letters to a reporter writing a story for a magazine. Twenty years later, the reporter is giving the interview letters to the abused woman's daughter. The interview letters are coming from the victim in jail, so that is established at the very beginning; the reader can guess what ultimately happened, but the getting there is the best part.

Walterlym Siqueira haideia — A sweet, sarcastic, introspective family drama, with very subtle fantastical elements. This book was so much more than I expected! Ahern's prose is truly lovely. Unexpectedly, her prettiest descriptions are not those of her native Irish countryside, although those sections are well-done too, but rather her expertly intuitive handling of the quirks of human communication and their nuanced, layered, historied relationships. Ahren captures the way a woman's eyes look when she is nursing a secret and the stiff, awkward way she holds herself when she is torn between love and hate, tenderness and regret in such a beautiful, vivid, and painfully realistic way. I'm quite surprised by reviews calling The Book of Tomorrow slow or boring, because it was a true suspenseful page-turner for me, brimming with that evasive can't-put-it-down-even-though-I-needed-to-make-dinner-hours-ago quality. Rosaleen was just so chillingly creepy right from the first moment she was introduced, but then were times when you almost felt she was alright. Then she'd be creepy again and it was just a total mind-fuck trying to figure out what was going on with her. I loved how there would be clues thrown in but they were never enough to allow me to really solve any of the mystery, rather they just kept adding to the mystery, so the story was never predictable. I was left in total delicious suspense until very near the end of the story when (view spoiler) The characterization was fantastic, particularly that of Rosaleen and Arthur. Their relationship was so hard to pin down. I loved how you couldn't quite tell who was on top. I thought Tamara's teenage voice was excellent as well. She perhaps did occasionally come across as just a bit too precocious, but overall I thought it was a fairly realistic portrayal of a teen in her situation, or what any more worldly teen talks like. Although many readers have seemed to tag it as such, I'm not sure I would consider this book to be "chick-lit". Romance is not the focus of the story, in fact, there is very little romance in it at all. Nor would I consider The Book of Tomorrow to be "light" or "fluffy", which are the usual qualifiers for chick-lit. I actually found it to be quite the opposite. The Book of Tomorrow is one of the more intelligent, meaningful stories that I've read in the past month or so. I'm not sure that I would consider this book to be YA either, although it seems to have been tagged as that too. Of course, whether or not a book is YA or adult fiction is an entirely subjective, and often murky, matter. It was shelved as adult fiction at both the library and my local bookstore though. The main character is a teen, and although the book would certainly be suitable for mature 15-16 yr olds and up (there is some sexual content), I got the impression that the book was speaking more to older adults who are likely to be looking back on their teen years than to teens themselves. Categorizing this book is difficult when it comes to the unexplained supernatural elements as well. The magical elements of the story are so minor, and so blended into the everyday happenings, that I almost feel like The Book of Tomorrow is more magical realism than true fantasy. Genre certainly is a tricky concept.
