How I Live Now by Meg Rosoff
My rating: 5/5 cats
i may just be giving this five stars cats out of surprise…i was dreading reading all these teen books—not all of them look bad or anything, but there are just so many and i am so far away from my teenage years…but this one is a hoot! (if a book about war and death and eating disorders and all horrible things can be said to be a hoot. for my purposes i say yes) i liked the character’s voice; it was just the right combination of faux-sophistication and vulnerability. and all the survival stuff was great, it reminds me of my all-time favorite children’s book which i may write a review for later. and now i am really looking forward to my class!! meet me at the mall!
