LOVED this book! This was a selection of the wowOwow.com book club. I really expected to come on here and read lots of positive feedback and was surprised at not finding much. I agree wholeheartedly with reviewer Mary... it is the best book I've read this year and, like her, enjoyed Life of Pi although I'm not sure I see the connection.. (Mary, what makes you say this?)... It is surprising as well that readers thought that Collie was the one who grew up to be "normal" in his dysfunctional family. If anything, I thought at the end that he actually came to an appreciation and understanding of his family and saw things in a different way, viewing life the way a pidgeon would (you have to read the book to understand), with instinct and without over-thinking and responding to the earth's magnetic forces. Rather than triumph OVER his family, I thought he was relaxing and coming into his own because of them. The meandering style of the book was in question as well. I thought it could be intentional, indicating the feel of lazy, purposeless beach lives among rich, boozy (definitely meandering) characters. Am I reading too much into it? But I felt it set the ambiance for the book in the same way the claustrophobic camera work did for "Rear Window"). Readers also used the word humorous often regarding this book. There were moments, but I have to say I gritted my teeth through most of it at the way Collie was treated by his family, especially his mother. I don't know, frankly, how someone could survive a childhood like that and still retain a modicum of self esteem. Admittedly, because of that, I was a little angry during a good deal of this book. At the end, though, I loved it, and the message that sometimes it is more important to love family for their flaws instead of despite them. If this is Ms. Kelly's first book, I can not wait to see what is coming next and I hope that it is soon!
