Have you ever wondered what life would be like if your world wasn't as organized and civilized as it probably is now? Would there be chaos or would a new kind ruler take over? Scarred provides some very disconcerting answers to those questions. In a world where there appears to be no central government after a devastating war, things are run by the Regulators. They're nomadic, motorcycle gangs who, while they do roam, claim territory. Any people who live in that territory are also property of the Regulators. It's unsettling, sad and dangerous. This new world, this is the world that Dae lives in. He's a young man, with an even younger sister, who runs a diner. The area Dae's diner is in is run by a regulator named McBane. Dae is covered in the scars left behind by McBane's sexual torture. McBane has left Dae half dead more than once and Dae takes it because if he doesn't McBane will turn to Dae's sister Delia. The whole story happens in Dae's diner. I got the feeling that it was worn down but clean while everything outside of the diner was covered in dust and dirt. I liked Dae right from the beginning and believed in his strength. What he was doing to protect his sister was tragic but in a way it was beautiful, the love that he had for her. Dae's routine is broken when new regulators show up. These new regulators are an unknown factor and while McBane is the devil, he's at least a devil that Dae knows. Enter Cody. Cody looks young, he's smaller than the other regulators who've come into the diner and he almost looks like any young guy you'd see around. The thing is that once you look into Cody's eyes you know what he's about. Cody is the head of these new regulators and the hardness in his eyes warns people that he's done more than every regulator under him put together. Cody wants Dae but Dae belongs to McBane and no one messes with what belongs to McBane. Cody's changing that. Here's where I fell in love with Cody. JM Snyder wrote his character in such a way that he doesn't seem like some reckless kid posturing and posing. Cody's calm. He's the kind of calm that people don't want to meet in a dark alley. Actually, I wouldn't want to meet someone like that on a sunny day in the middle of the street. The relationship that starts between Cody and Dae is surprisingly sweet. Don't get me wrong; it's not sweet in the way romances usually are. There's still a kind of sorrow to what they share but they want to be together and Dae deserves to be with someone. Cody isn't softened by the romance either. Standing between Cody and Dae is flirting with death. This book doesn't end on a sweet note. It ends on a bloody one but in it's own way it's hopeful. This story is my favorite by JM Snyder and I would recommend it to anyone.

I am all for books with funky narrators and interesting narrative styles. Though I’m still unsure about postmodernism, I love novels that push the limits on our expectations for genre. When I picked up “Wickett’s Remedy”, I thought that I was just in for an interesting story on the Spanish influenza. Oh boy, how wrong I was! What I wound up with was a great novel about South Boston during WWI, but written in a style that includes voices from those who had already past. Additionally, the author uses a bit of a scrapbook technique that includes letters, newsletters, and newspaper clippings. All of these forms are beautifully woven into the story in a way that gives it many dimensions and a great story. Lydia is an Irish girl from South Boston who yearns to live and work on Washington Avenue. While all of her neighbors are going about their lives in Southie, Lydia lands a job working at a famous department store on her dream street. It is there that she meets her future husband who is studying to be a doctor. However, he abandons that path when he and Lydia marry and instead decides to produce a remedy tonic. When the Spanish Influenza strikes, Lydia’s (along with the rest of the country’s) life is completely turned upside down. Her story is interspersed with newsletters regarding the world famous QD soda. These stories are masterfully braided together to reveal the full extent of Lydia’s life and losses. To say I couldn’t put this book down is a grave understatement. This novel had come to my attention a couple of times before I finally picked it up. Even once I did, I was a bit startled by the fact that there is the complete text in the center of the page with a couple of lines of subscript in the margins of each page. It took a bit of time to figure out how to handle this but it soon became natural to read the standard text and then glance over at the marginal notes. The notes are written in the first person plural and seem to be from the viewpoint of those who have passed on. Typically, they are used as a way for secondary characters to voice how they viewed a certain situation. This is incredibly interesting because it shows the shortcomings of the overall narrator while calling into question our personal memories and their accuracy. Each chapter is constructed a bit like a scrapbook. The majority of the pages focus on the overall plot with the marginal notes supplementing it. Towards the end of each chapter, the author throws in some news clippings, letters, and various kinds of dialog. It’s a little bit of a game to try to figure out what it all means but as it comes together it’s clear that the whole book is a beautiful tapestry of narrative techniques. As a history buff, I was extremely impressed by the amount of meticulous research the author performed. Most historical fiction focuses on a historical event but than manipulates it to fit the author’s characters and views. This is not true of “Wickett’s Remedy”. The history is not only accurate but vital to the characters and the story. The plot is not merely dropped into a certain time period but instead is about that time and the people in it. This adds a realness to the characters that is often lacking in fiction. Overall, I think that this is a fantastic book both for its story and its technique. I have no qualms recommending it to book groups, friends, family, enemies, and strangers. www.iamliteraryaddicted.blogspot.com

You can remain alive anywhere in the world when you keep your wits. This is a major lesson in survival. Remember that nature and the elements are neither your friend nor your enemy—they are actually disinterested. Instead, it is your determination to live and your ability to make nature work for you that are the deciding factors. Learn to put up with new and unpleasant conditions. Keeping your mind on SURVIVAL will help. Don’t be afraid to try new foods. One survivor reported that some men would almost starve before eating strange food. He said they tried a soup made from lamb’s head, with lamb’s eyes floating around in it. When a new prisoner came in, he would try to find a seat next to him so he could eat the food the prisoner refused. A clean shave is a good morale booster. Avoid scratches, bruises, and loss of direction and confidence by developing “jungle eye.” If caught in an avalanche, use swimming motions to stay on top. Be careful not to drink more than three or four cups of ripe coconut juice a day. This juice is a violent laxative. Be careful not to get this [papaya:] juice into your eyes—it will cause intense pain and temporary or even permanent blindness. …you can live for a long period on nothing but almonds. Both rats and mice are palatable meat, particularly if cooked in a stew. These rodents should be skinned, gutted, and boiled. Rats and mice should be boiled about 10 minutes. Either may be cooked with dandelion leaves. Always include the livers. Survival in remote and desolate areas, in the Arctic, desert, or jungle, depends on you. You must be physically fit; have a fundamental knowledge of woodcraft principles; know what foods are available and how to find and prepare them; understand how to care for your body and how to conserve energy; and recognize those plants and animals that will harm you. Armed with this knowledge, you are prepared to wage a winning battle for survival. With few exceptions, natives are friendly. They know the country, its available water and food, and the way back to civilization…. (1) Let the natives contact you. Deal with the recognized headman or chief to get what you want …. (3) Treat natives like human beings. …. (5) Respect personal property, especially their women. (6) Don’t take offense at pranks played on you. Primitive people especially are fond of practical jokes. Survival is synonymous with “take your time.” The polar bear is a tireless, clever hunter with good sight and an extraordinary sense of small. He may even hunt you! Do not fry meat. This method eliminates the fat necessary for your health. Don’t hurry. Never try to beat the jungle by speed—you can’t. Native food in the Sahara is both palatable and edible. You are less likely to enjoy the food that is available in the Gobi since the native Mongols have less idea of cleanliness than the Arabs. Avoid wild buffalo because of their continued mean tempers.

This is the fourth book in the Lady Grace Mysteries series, about Lady Grace Cavendish, a thirteen-year-old Maid of Honour at the court of Queen Elizabeth I. It's late November of 1569, and thirteen-year-old Lady Grace Cavendish, a Maid of Honour to Queen Elizabeth I, can't wait to visit the Frost Fair on the frozen river Thames. But while visiting the fair, she and her fellow Maids discover a dead body in a boat frozen into the ice. When Grace discovers that the dead man's body has two coins on his eyes, and that those coins are counterfeit copies of a new coin that has not yet been released, she knows she has another mystery to solve. With the help of her best friends, Ellie the laundry maid, and Masou the tumbler, Grace is determined to find the villain responsible for the counterfeiting and murder. But every suspect seems to lead to a dead end. Will Grace find the true criminal in time? This is another great Elizabethan mystery adventure with the very likable Lady Grace Cavendish. Told in the form of Grace's diary, this book not only has a great story, but brings to life the world of England in 1569. Readers who enjoyed the first three Lady Grace Mysteries won't want to miss this book, and new readers who love historical mysteries should definitely give this series a try. I can't wait to read the fifth book in this series!
