It was a good storyline . It kept me turning pages when I knew I should have put it down for the night.

I was surprised by how much I liked the book. I was actually looking for something to rant about and when I read the cover, I thought, "This sounds way too surreal and out-there." When I skimmed through it, it only seemed to confirm it. But when I actually sat down to read it, I found an odd, sad world that had interesting and well-developed characters, making the fantastic events centered around them seem much more realistic and down-to-earth than I would have thought. Even when a woman births a baby with a fish's head, her grief is very real even if the story is not. It was a very emotional book for me and did suck me in with the loneliness, sorrow, and growing strength to accept loss of all kinds. The book is well-written and full of description that pulled me along for the journey. The sea was a terrifying, isolating presence for me, as well - unpredictable, illusive, and angry as more misery welled up from its tides. When they traveled to Jerusalem (and all the nitty-gritty descriptions) and fought the storm, I couldn't put the book down. The woman (who experiences loss and makes up the story) had an interesting role as more of an observer than as a central character, which I found refreshing. Only in the end, when she is with the leper and then finally alone to travel on, it all came together and I thought that was terrific. I'm sure that a lot of the symbolism was lost on me, but I felt it. The only thing I didn't like was the time-line could be confusing at times. It's a tale of allegory mixed with vengeful mermaids, motherhood, devils and saints, death, lepers, and the sea. "The priest taught her how to write her own name, and the name of the holy city of Jerusalem. When she put the two words together side by side she felt she had written the story of a long journey."

Anytime JK Rowling wants to write more about Harry Potter's world, I will be happy to buy and read it.

My uncle gave this to me when I had dengue 4 years ago. I finished this book in the hospital and till now it is one of my favorite books ever.
I liked this one better than Twilight.

Solid writing, crazy story. It never ceases to amaze me how wacko people often have such stellar offspring. I liked how Walls never lapsed into self-pity or an easy explanation for why her parents were the way they were. Life, and people, are complicated.

I just finished the second book of the series, and I am jumping right into this one. If the first two are any indication, this will be a quick read, because I won't want to put the book down.

I heard about this book on NPR as a "book to return to". http://www.npr.org/templates/story/st... First published in 1997, it has been updated (2005) Suskind, a white journalist for the Wall Street Journal, follows the life of D.C. Cedric Jennings through his high school years at Ballou and his freshman year at Brown. This is a story I thought I knew (I did teach at Whitman for many years), smart ghetto boy trying to survive the "hood", but Suskind's insight really helped me to better understand the enourmous difficulty of surviving and prospering with a terrible urban education. Barbara, his single mother and single-minded mother, is quite a force. Be sure to read the Afterword.
