My sister actually owns this book and I borrowed it a couple times. I could not get enough. The writing just sucks you in and I became a fan of the author from this book.

A cool book I stumbled upon in a used book store. It incorperates history and sci-fi in a quick read. The book starts fast but ends a bit hokie. For me, the best parts of the book were the inclusions of the Civil War. If nothing else, this book has inspired me to read more about the war,fiction and non-fiction, in the future.

Totally unbelievable plotline, but classic Meg Cabot humor! Thanks to Jenny I have the next to read!

a good book for me to read when I read it. Upon further reflection, however, I'm looking to reread it and consider whether the characters I related to during high school are somewhat more pathetic now?

Tucker's outstanding novel (after Shout Down the Moon) is as structurally dextrous as it is emotionally satisfying, boasting a chorus of extraordinary voices and assured parallel plot lines separated by four decades. In the present day, 23-year-old Dorothea has left her overprotective father's secluded 35-acre New Mexico estate, called the Sanctuary, where she and her brother, Jimmy, had been sheltered from current news and all modern-day innovations. Searching for her runaway brother in St. Louis, Dorothea meets a recently widowed doctor-turned-cabbie, who introduces her to the vibrant outside world he's been trying to escape. A parallel tale set in the 1970s follows the budding romance between a successful film director and the waif who becomes his muse, his wife and the object of his obsessive control. The tour de force resolution that ties both stories together is a lyrically poignant reminder of the necessity of hope. An exceptionally empathetic storyteller, Tucker has created a haunting, gripping novel that brims with graceful writing and fragile characters. This should be catnip for book clubs, whether they devour it as a page-turner about parenting and family or discuss its subtle meditations on fate and coincidence, wealth and poverty, freedom and safety, fairy tales and American dreams. THE UNABRIDGED AUDIOBOOK: Tucker's complexly structured novel could be a tight wire act for a reader because the story has multiple narrators and follows two compelling story lines separated by almost two decades. Fortunately, Joyce Bean is a dexterous performer who is more than up to the challenge. She does an admirable job, not only reading chapters in alternating character voices but also enlivening dialogue within those chapters with subtle, compelling and entertaining voices for each character. She adapts a higher, airy lightness to portray Dorothea, who is thrust out into the modern world to discover family secrets after having been sheltered from the outside world for decades by her overprotective father. Bean portrays Dorothea's emotionally damaged brother, Jimmy, with a scratchy, raw rasp and her cab-driving protector, Stephen, with the laid-back ease of a lower register. (The only voice that seems off is Dorothea's father, who sounds like a robotic Hannibal Lechter.) Tucker's tale is a twisty one filled with surprising revelations and multiple emotional payoffs, and Bean maneuvers the terrain with ease.

is it a novel? or a failed screenplay? or a crazed performance piece? I'm hoping it's all of those things. You just have to read it. IT's too bizarre to even describe. you'll think I'm just pulling it out of my ass.

Great ending to the saga. BUt suffers from a lack of aggressive editing. Way too much camping.

Like the other books in this series, this one is good, I gave it three stars because it's just sort of....amusing reading. I think to get the 4+ star level, you really have to have some effect, profound or otherwise, on my life. This didn't. It was a fun read, but nothing earth shattering. Good for when you want something light.
