This is classified as a Young Adult book but i would push it towards the older young adults. The book is beautifully written, it kept me reading with the way the words flowed and the situations grabbed my attention and kept me looking for what would happen next. The whole Polygamist thing definitely made me cringe, the underage (13 year old) having a baby was a bit hard to swallow and I wasn't expecting to like the book because of it but the way it is laid out with woman dying at 20 and men at 25 I understood where the author was taking the book and the issues the virus has caused in people trying to keep the population up and to find a cure. Rhine goes through quite the internal conflict with wanting to get out of her situation but not wanting to leave her sister wives alone, or wanting to hurt her "husband". Another issue I had was something I have heard in other reviews, Rhine is supposed to be the first wife yet she is in the house/marriage for almost a year and she is the only wife who hasn't had to consummate her marriage or bear a child (the reason why she was kidnapped in the first place) For some reason she was spared while the 13 year old was impregnated, yet she was the most favored wife??? It just seemed a little odd with everything that was going on. It was a good read and If you want a shocking and thrilling tale and dont mind some disturbing situations you will enjoy reading Wither too.

I would have given this book five stars if it had a more cohesive sense of continuity, but with the sheer amount of ground Reynolds covers, I don't know if that would have been possible. Each individual chapter, typically covering a group of stylistically or otherwise related artists, usually in a particular city or region, reads more like a standalone article, though the chronological ordering of the chapters and the web of mutual influence among the artists made it inevitable that certain names would pop up throughout the book. There are general themes that Reynolds touches on throughout, perhaps the most fascinating being the fact that the musical climate left in the wake of the '70s punk bands was largely responsible for the development of both noisy, confrontational, disturbing bands like Throbbing Gristle and Whitehouse, and groups like The Thompson Twins and Simple Minds, who seemed to personify the most innocuous, disposable pop of the era. I was continually surprised when ideas that were patently absurd on the surface, like Depeche Mode being the recontextualization as pop music of the sounds of metal-banging early industrial groups like Einsturzende Neubauten and Test Dept, made a lot of sense when I really thought about them. If you have any interest at all in the post-punk music that came out between 1978 and 1984, Rip It Up and Start Again is an absolutely essential read. Bands like Joy Division, Wire, Gang of Four, Talking Heads, Public Image Ltd, Pere Ubu, The Fall, Devo, Cabaret Voltaire, and dozens of others are treated in depth, with hundreds more mentioned in passing. It took me months to finish, not because its content wasn't compelling, but because I was constantly stopping to spend weeks tracking down and listening to music from numerous artists who were either unfamiliar to me, or whose more creative (and typically earlier) work I hadn't heard. [Get the British edition, with the yellow cover, if at all possible. A lot of material was cut in the U.S. edition ]
