This was a very interesting book. Had a nice flow, good writing, characters with depth and a great plot. Plus - it's pirates... ;)

This book was recommended from a friend and fellow reader. I have to admit I kind of sighed when she handed it to me because of the long length. Sometimes you are just so busy and it is hard to commit to a long one, but this was well worth the commitment! Very interesting story that takes place in an Ethiopian hospital. In the first chapter, a nun (nurse), who has been secretly hiding a pregancy goes into labor and dies giving birth to a set of twins, who live...I'll let you read the rest...It has a few surprises in the end.. :-)

Another great book by Kristin Hannah - slowly working through her entire library. This one hit me hard (being a twin) and so many parts were brutal to read but she always writes her characters that love or hate you have a relationship with them.

I was completely drawn in by this story. I read it after I'd seen the movie. Even then what I was visualizing was completely different from the movie. One of the best descriptive novels I have read. bsolutely riveting.

The one where Jocelyn the dog breeder gathers a group of friends to read and discuss Jane Austen, written mostly from a "we" POV as though the club were its own character. Oh, I enjoyed this so much. I stick mostly to genre, which is reliably enjoyable, and this is the sort of book I probably never would have looked at if it weren't for people here saying they liked it. I loved the daring way it treated time and POV. I loved the characters, even the ones I hated; some of the stories from the past made me absolutely furious, all puffed up and ready to defend the characters and punish those who did them wrong. In the end, they were like family in that I wanted them happy even when they drove me crazy.

Strange. . . but enjoyable. I loved Margarita's adventures, and the Devil's Ball. My friend in the lab who lived in an Eastern Bloc nation found all of the anti-bureaucracy stuff hilarious, but it might be lost on someone who didn't live under Communism at some point. This is definitely not a character-driven story, so just be aware of that.

Loved it! I will be buying the series, which I rarely do--I usually just go to the library. Can't wait to read the next book :0)

I finished this book a few days ago, and have spent the time reflecting that it is in many ways a perfect novel. This is one of those books that gets better the more you think about it. As many reviewers have noted, Margaret Atwood tells us the same story in three different ways (or four, depending on how you count them): (1) Newspaper clippings describing events, (2) Iris Chase Griffin's memoirs in her last years and (3) the story The Blind Assassin, in which an anonymous man tells a science fiction story to his lover. These narration are interwoven throughout the novel. All three of these types of narration have strengths and weaknesses, and while all three are describing the same era and events, the impression we get of the characters is vastly different. None of them tells a complete story. The reader is forced to guess and fill in the blanks throughout. Ironically, we discover that the news clippings, perhaps the most objectively "true" are in fact the least accurate versions of what occurred. In many ways, the fictional story The Blind Assassin is the most accurate telling of history. Strikingly, the portrayal of Iris herself in these narrations varies the most. Her passivity makes her a remarkably un-interesting character - except that she isn't nearly as passive as we might believe. I'm not sure if we can ascribe her passivity to "the role of women at the time" - certainly Atwood has commentary on the subject, but Winnifred Griffin Prior is also a woman of the time and she is certainly not a passive participant in her life or in others'. Thankfully for the story, Iris is in fact complex, complicated, and dynamic - and a great narrator. I've also been pondering the story The Blind Assassin and its significance to the novel as a whole. Is Iris the true Blind Assassin? Is she more like the sacrificial, tongueless girl in the story? What is the significance of the various endings to the story that are played with? I will have to re-read this with these questions in mind. Of course, Atwood's brilliant style shines within this structure. I have been a fan of hers for years, but somehow did not get around to reading this one before. She picks apart the English language in digressions, implements turns of phrase with ease and cleverness, and sucks you in. And although she tells you the ending in the first 2 or 3 chapters, she still manages to surprise and shock. What more can you ask for?

Beautiful! Such a unique story; who ever knew what it would be like to be conflicted in terms of gender.
