Another fun pirate adventure

Even if my life depended on it, I would still be hard pressed to explain what this book was about. There are two sisters who are twins. They are nothing alike and hate each other…except when they don’t. Their mother is dead…or is she? One sister, who is an author, wrote a book about her life with her mother…or did the dead mother write the book? Then at the very, very end of the book, it seems like the sisters’ band together to go back in time to sop their mom and dad from having sex so that they are not born. They want to do this because their lives are so terrible. ??? Not a short book and definitely not worth the time.

A moving and heartfelt book on how dyslexia doesn't change who you are or what you've accomplished, and on belonging in a community and in your inner soul.

In my opinion, this was a terrible book and after I finished it and saw that it was a book of some acclaim, I was shocked. The writing is very stiff though that may be because it is told by the central character who comes across as a socially and psychologically disturbed person. The way I read it, his behaviors and thoughts are supposed to be considered normal but come across very damaged. He doesn’t care if he loses his job, gets married or not, or even goes to jail. I just could not get past the disturbed behavior in this book.

Cons It was long

Love the book It was super interesting and loved the dynamics

Golding’s usage of so many literary devices is phenomenally well done. I also absolutely adore the themes on danger of mob mentality and how easy it is to fall into a mindset that lacks individual thinking. Enjoyable read.
