Okay, so I was able to finish the amazing book within a day- truly because I thought it was amazing. The Truth about Forever had been my previous favourite from Sarah Dessen but it has now changed to this one. I love Sarah Dessen books, though I've only read her more recent ones (I didn't really like Along for the Ride but the other ones I've read are absolutely great) and this has got to be my all time favourite. This book, I know some people have problems with the Romance within it but I found it absolutely perfect and just so realistic, well in my opinion anyways. The thing about book romance is that hey put so much chemistry between the two characters you totally ship them and want them to kiss, with them I totally shipped them but I wasn't waiting for that kiss to happen where he tells her everything would be alright or them to hold hands. With this book, their relationship developed slowly, and I can imagine, living a life like Mcleans, she wouldn't want to be kissing the boy too soon or when she's feeling down, that would have or, might have, created lots of drama or emotional trauma between them. What I really adored was how they just sat together actually getting to know everything about each other, warts and all. I also don't think that this book was really meant to revovle around romance. I don't think it was meant to be those type or books where romance will fix the problems in your life. This was mainly about Mclean and dealing with the problems of having divorced parents and learning to accept yourself, your family and what has happened in the past. Perhaps even more reasons but I just can't think of them at the moment. That is why I think the Romance is fine the way it was. Another thing I noticed from reading other peoples reviews was that they hated the parents or didn't really like them. I can sort of see why but I just adore them as well. Her dad is just so busy with work, he may be annoying that way, and how her mom didn't see how Mclean saw the divorce but that was because she never told either of them what she really thought, until the end. And that's something I just love, how she finally expresses how she feels and why she pretended to be people she wasn't because it hurts to even tell people these type of things- and I know from experience. What I just love about Sarah Dessen books is how all her books are in the same world, and how characters from her other books are around but the narrator doesn't really notice them. What I love about that is because it's just to real. Think about our lives, we walk past people we've never met but they all have their own story. And I just love how that's incorporated within Dessen's books. What was funny was having Jason on this book, it gives a whole new look at him. I thought he was some mindless gineus when I read TTAB but here you see that he does have more to him than just smarts. I also liked how Dave knew him from Brain Camp (I never noticed how they were talking about the same Brain Camp until Dave mentions this to Mclean and I was like WHOA- HEY HEEYYYYY). Everything in the book is so realistic to me, and I just could totally relate to Mclean. As I do sometimes feel like her, wanting to change my life, pretend I'm some other person just so I don't have to be me. I just love her character, I love Dave's character, Deb- just everyone, even Heather. This book did have an emotional impact on me, I actually cried at the part at Poseiden. I do not have divorced parents but I completely understand the feelings Mclean had with her family and I just cried. I don't often cry when it comes to books (I didn't even cry for TFiOS, okay more liked teared up, but I cried more for this than that, but I do have reasons, reasons that are hard to explain), but this just had such an impact on me. That's why it's now my favourite Dessen book, and I can't wait for more Dessen books that captivate me like this books did.

This is the other book (besides Bleak House) that I would force all law students to read if I could. At least one Supreme Court Justice has said so as well. Kafka was a lawyer. If more lawyers had the empathy and understanding he writes with... well that would be wonderful.

I got this book online for my nook color and wasn't sure if I would like it because it was free. It is a very good book. It has a good story plot and keeps the reader holding their breath waiting to see what is going to happen next. Quite a few twists and turns and finding an ending that is somewhat of what you expect but yest some things were not expected. Brings to mind a lot of Christian truths and a lot of scriptures which is for me a way of life for me that you remember scriptures that you have been taught and the Lord brings them back to memory when you need them most. I would recommend this book for sure.

I didn't know what to expect going into this book, but it was more than what I got out of it. When a book is good I finish it in a day or two. This book took me ten days to get through, only because I could only read it in small doses before I'd get bored. Rayne was tired of her life and the noise London. All her mother wanted her for was to tend to her 3 yr. old brother Jelly, and all her so-called boyfriend wanted her for was to be on her arm at parties and to put out, (something she hadn't done yet). So when she sees an ad for a hostess/waitress at a tearoom at an ancient estate, she jumps at it. She just wants the solitude of being alone and noise-free. So she meets Mrs. Driver, who works in the kitchen at Morton's Keep and she hires her on for Monday-Friday. She will have to live there during the week, but on weekends she can go home, (which is nothing she is interested in doing). So Rayne leaves home, much to the dismay of her mother and her boyfriend. her first night at Morton's Keep is a scary one. She picks the old Sty to live in on the estate. She is away from the creepy house in a remodeled sty in the woods. She is terrified her first night there, but after that she seems used to it. She likes the woods and the work in the kitchen. People come to MOrton's keep for ghost hunting and dinners and such. When Rayne goes into town she meets a group of kids her age and quickly befriends them all, especially St. John who seems to be the leader of the group and who is interested in her, even though he has a girlfriend in the group already, a very jealous Flora. St. John and his clan seem to be very interested in Morton's Keep. The creepier things get around there the more St. John seems to be changing as well. And Rayne, she is seeing things and having strong senses about the things that are going on there and the things that have gone on there. This is a decent story but it is dragging. I'm not sure if I'm going to read the second story in the series or not. Usually I will read them back to back but this may be a book that I will have to go back to. I need something to sink my teeth into that I can read in 2 days, not something I can take in doses over a 10 day period.

I loved these stories. I waffled between giving the book a four star and a five star review. So, if out of ten, this would be a nine star review. The more I read this book, the more eager I became to do this review. I sometimes look at a book of stories as something like a cookbook. You know that not all of the recipes will appeal to you, but if you can find a few really good ones, you'll consider the book a good investment. This book is a such a great investment. Each of Rosenblum's stories stands on its own as a well crafted piece - each one more than worth the price of the book, more than worth your time to read it. But I also loved how these stories were interconnected, sometimes obviously and sometimes subtly, so that as I read, the world in which the characters lived became just that more authentic, remarkable and complete. You need to discover these stories for yourself. I expect that you will find much more and much else in which to delight than I can ever present here. But here is what delighted me: First of all, the cover of my copy of the book is not the cover that is shown here. My cover is the cover image by Marta Chudolinska from the graphic novel "Back and Forth" a black and white drawing of people on a bus. Lonely people. When I read the first few stories in Once, I decided this was the perfect cover. Most of the characters in Rosenbum's stories are young (twenty-ish) but lonely people just trying to get somewhere. They don't have cars; they rely on the TTC. The TTC is clearly not very efficient or "user friendly". In fact, the TTC seems to be an unpleasant and aggravating impediment to actually helping anyone get where they are going any time soon. As an aside, I had people visiting me from Toronto this weekend and I asked them if the TTC was really as bad Rosenblum had described it (my own limited experience with it on vacation having been rather pleasant in a holiday adventure sort of way). My visitors responded "Yes! It is that bad and there's no use complaining." Oh. Great cover then! But having now read Once, while still loving the bus cover (It is perfect.), it occurred to me that if it was me in charge of coming up with a cover, I might pick this image.* The photograph is of Loki, a fledgling peregrine falcon hatched in downtown Winnipeg atop a city skyscraper. Peregrines are a threatened species, but they have adapted to urban landscapes, ledges of skyscrapers being much like cliffs in the countryside. And there's lots of available prey in the modern city - pigeons and seagulls, notably. Loki's probably about 40 days old here. He has shed his downy-white baby chick fluff (although you can still see a bit of it on top of his head). Looking skyward, he will soon lift off, get out into that great big world beyond his nest ledge, assert his independence from his parents. In short, he wants to fly. In reality, it's not a simply a case of his wanting, he has been hard-wired to do so. He *will* take off from the nest ledge but his success in the big world (which immediately involves avoiding collision with skyscrapers in his airway and the traffic below)will depend on a lot of things. He has been exercising his wings in the nest for weeks, his parents have fed him non-stop since he hatched. He has watched his parents and perhaps his brothers successfully take off and land. If he has been reluctant to leave, his devoted parents have lured him with food drops away from the nest. Will he be strong enough, smart enough, and lucky enough to rise and soar above those things beyond his control: the weather, the rain and wind and air currents; the brick and glass and concrete surrounding him and the hurtling traffic below? Rosenblum's characters are this peregrine falcon. They are fledglings. They have launched. They've adapted to urban life. They are doing what young adults are supposed to do, are expected to do. They're working and looking for love. But, they really want to fly! There are no actual peregrine falcons in the Once stories, but there are pigeons, cardinals, swans, cranes, a hawk, a goose, a puffin. Characters squawk, twitter, cackle and pluck. They eat chicken primavera, chicken supreme, chicken fingers, gummy worms, egg-shaped plums and "two lonely eyes of eggs". Rosenblum's bird imagery is truly magical. I was enchanted in "Route 99" with: "Inside there was a waitress perched in the kitchen pass-through with a big stack of napkins in her lap. She was carefully folding them into swans. A row of perfect birds swam next to her on the counter." How lovely! I was totally charmed when the napkins became paper cranes in "Linh Lai" and the "customers squawk happily over the white birds". In "Blood Ties" I was blown away by the perfection of the narrator's description of her sudden fury at her father thusly: "It was like tossing breadcrumbs to pigeons, just one crumb of agitation brought a fluttering flock of rage." I loved how the skateboarders would glide into most of the stories and my perception that the characters in the stories just wanted to fly was brought home by the Vietnamese waitress in "Linh Lai" who when watching a ninja movie, "feels her feet twitch again, and runs to the middle of the room, leaps up, kicks out, whirling around and around,four times before landing." But what Linh Lai really wants to do is ride the skate board. When she gets the chance, "She feels each bit of gravel under the wheels, the cool fall wind and exhaust on her skin....She bends her knees and feels her weight steady as she flies forward, a wonderful wordless feeling of on on on." But just as with the peregrine falcon, the success of Rosenbaum's characters to fly depends on a lot of things. In "Massacre Day", I know it's not going to be a good day for Teyla, when she opens her eyes to a "pigeon shitted window". And I am so sad when she ends it, "panting drunk on the coffee table, the windows birdshit and black night and she couldn't shut the drapes because David took them. Everything in her life was because of something or someone that wasn't." Some people, like peregrines, simply crash. There were times that Rosenblum's writing reminded me of others of my favourite books. "Wall of Sound" brought to mind the symphony of birdsong in Jim Lynch's Border Songs. The fishy "Steal Me" delighted my imagination in the same way that Nicolas Dickner's fluorescent chimera of plankton about a street light did in Nikolski. But if Rosenblum's writing sometimes reminded me of the writing of others, her voice is uniquely and beautifully her own. I look forward to hearing it again. *Photograph of Peregrine falcon fledgling used with the kind permission of Dennis Swayze at photosbydennis.
