This book, well, let me just say that it is almost impossible to put down once you pick it up. Honestly, there are no "down" or "slow" parts in the book. Not to say it is all action, excitement, adventure, etc. But it is always something going on that you want to know about. Someone that you nee...
I would call this dystopia lite. Not so distant future, second Prohibition. Anya isn't so much in to the government side of things yet because she has other shit to deal with. Also, she's a teenager. What was weird to me was the narrative timeline. Sometimes she would add things like she's telling h...
Amazingly witty, grime-smeared and with a dystopian twist "All These Things I've Done" will make you long to be part of the deviant mafia world and all its mysteries and sordid affairs. Review to come :)
Hmmm, I'd say 3.5 to 4 stars for this one at best.I've read another book by Gabrielle Zevin (not Elsewhere folks, but the Teenage Amnesiac one lol) so I was curious about this one. Plus Illegal Chocolate and MOBSTERS? Like TOTALLY. :DDDHowever there's a few thing -- well ONE big thing mainly.It was ...
Truthfully I almost threw this book across the room. The 40 straight pages of divergence from the "whodunit" plot into a stroll through the life and love of an American teenager was mind numbing. But I guess it is needed to make you believe in the romance. *sniffs* Of course I have never been one fo...
I would not really put this book in the dystopia category. Yes it’s got some sort of elements (the shortage of paper, chocolate and coffee being illegal, etc) but it just seems like everyone’s putting everything in dystopia when it shouldn’t be because it’s all the rage. What got me to really liking...
Anya has had a hard life. Her mother was shot while driving with her older brother and was killed. Her brother's brain was permanently damaged, leaving him childlike in a grown man's body. Her father was murdered at their home, leaving her, and her siblings to be raised by her grandmother. What can ...
Anya Balanchine, the daughter of a murdered crime boss in 2083 New York City, tries to distance herself from her family's illegal activities while taking care of an ailing grandmother, a mentally handicapped older brother, and a younger sister, all while dealing with her own typical teenage problems...
I liked this with some reservations. It was a bit unrealistic and some things could have been fleshed out better. But I did enjoy it. This was quite the interesting read because of Anya, her life and her choices. So, yeah. It was okay, could have been better.
