I may be tiring of Fforde's Real World/Book World schtick but I didn't find this one as entertaining as his earlier installments. This time it is the "written" Thursday who is the protagonist and the convoluted tale traces her search through the Book World for the real Thursday. I think his new Shades of Grey series has more potential. Only for hardcore Fforde/Thursday fans.

How I Came To Read This Book: Harper Collins sent me an ARE. The Plot: A plane is hijacked and downed in the jungles of Colombia - and the 68 surviving passengers are taken hostage. What the guerrillas in charge don't know is passenger #69 - Emma Caldridge - is alive, well, and a force to be reckoned with. Emma's an extreme long distance runner, able to top 100 miles in a single race. She's also a botanist / researcher with an extensive knowledge of the plants of the world, especially in the Colombian jungle she had just visited in the past year. Despite these traits that should give Emma greater odds in a hellish situation, her own agenda - and tense government interactions - may put everyone (good and evil) in more danger than imaginable. The Good & The Bad: I don't really read thrillers / mass market books, so I felt like a bit of a genre fish out of water here. That being said, the bad is what you'd expect from a book like this: relatively flat characters (with the exception of Emma, although her lost love backstory, odd familial relations, and motives for being in Colombia all felt a bit forced), way too many loose ends, a relatively convoluted plot, surprisingly predictable in the who will live and die aspect, and frustratingly - not as tense as it could have been. The main saving grace, aside from the overall readability and speediness of the chapters, was the two unique elements of Emma's character I mentioned in my synopsis. Learning about the plants and their unique effects (which are mostly real, according to the author's note) was quite interesting, and Emma's advantages as a runner made certain elements of the book a bit more realistic. The Bottom Line: Your typical thriller...I think? Too many loose ends to make for a tight, tense book. Anything Memorable? Nope. 50-Book Challenge?: Book #14 in 2009

Out of all of the books I have currently read about medical school and residency, this one was by far the most depressing account. For four years, this man details his experience in medical school and its utter lack of redeeming qualities. Bright moments and successes are always overshadowed by diatribes on what is wrong with medical education in this country. In the end, the author chooses not to continue on into residency, citing multiple reasons as to why he is doing a greater service to public health by NOT becoming a doctor. A flop.

Great book about the history of slavery by a Canadian author!

Such a beautiful book, and contains one of my favorite lines in literature: "He allowed himself to be swayed by his conviction that human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but that life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves."

Possibly one of the most boring books I have read in a long time. Hope this isn't on Queen Elizabeth's list or the author might be sued for slander.

Loved it. And I can't fully describe why. Interesting and disturbing premise, fast moving plot, and good point of view from the eyes of a 5 year old. It's been a long time since I looked forward to coming home just so I could read a book but this one had me captivated all week.
