Okay, I've already published entries on the individual chapters/episodes. So over on my main blog, I've collected them all in one handy-dandy (and long) post, but I have a couple of thoughts on the book as a whole. I'm not sure this one worked as well as Indexing in the episodic format, some of th...
". . .we’re going to stop Adrianna and Birdie from doing whatever it is that they’re planning to do." Distort the narrative. Turn the stories that wouldn’t stop replaying to their advantage. We knew the broad strokes, but we’d never quite managed to unsnarl the details. I wasn’t sure they had either...
Dying, as it turned out, was quite a pleasant thing. The world went soft around the edges, taking all the pain and confusion and betrayal with it. They had seemed so important not long ago, when time had been measured in years, not in seconds. Now, it was finally clear that they’d never really matte...
We've all read enough/watched enough Body Swap stories to know how this goes down. Henry wakes up in a body that's not hers, makes her way to the Bureau, to try to get her team back. She has to convince more than a few people that's she who she claims to be. The fact that there are people who work...
Just what I needed after "Holly Tree," Sloane puts the pieces together, and the bad guys show their hand. But wait, there's more -- a fascinating narrative incursion, and some real tension -- both physical danger and a heart and soul in jeopardy. The incursion was a "Puss in Boots," which just get...
Henry finds a way back home -- of sorts, and at a great cost. We learn a whole lot about Sloane, about the early days of the ATI (and it's predecessors) -- and I even expect a lot of this to come back and be relevant. I just don't know what to say about this installment. Was it interesting? Ye...
So we were going to do this the hard way. Fine. I’m Sloane Winters: I invented the hard way. "You want to ignore what’s right in front of your faces, that’s okay by me. I’ll just laugh even harder when it turns around and bites you. Assholes." "Thanks for the motivational speech, Sloane," said Andre...
While Jeff and Sloane were fretting in the last chapter, this is what Henry was going through -- and pretty soon you start to think that maybe Jeff and Sloane were better off (as worried as they were). But honestly, there really wasn't a lot of plot movement here. It's primarily a chapter that expan...
Henrietta Marchen was a perfect exemplar of her kind. Her skin was white as snow, and never tanned or freckled; the best she’d ever been able to accomplish was a violent burn that turned her entire body as red as her lips, which were the color of fresh-drawn blood. Once, in the third grade, she had ...
This is one is hard to think about as an individual episode. There's some plot advancement, yes. But mostly this is about the team getting some new intel, evaluating it, and then coming up with a plan to get more information -- there are some unorthodox moves required to obtain this more, but if t...
