[A]: NEG

[Q]: A Quick Read if Nothing Else . When I first read the summary of Lost Souls I knew I had to get this book. So, on what would end up being an long journey, I phoned my local second hand book stores and after going to three finally found one that actually had a copy (despite the others that were 'supposed to have one, miss, sorry'). I couldn't wait to read it, and in two days I'd finished the book. Now, perhaps it was because my sights had been set so high, or perhaps I expected a well written novel when there was none, but 'Lost Souls' disappointed me severely. As another reviewer said Nothing, the main character, is possibly one of the most selfish characters I've come across. I'm fine with selfish characters, I myself loved Lestat of the Vampire Chronicles, but only when they're well written. We're meant to sympathize with him but I found it impossible to do so. He is honestly a selfish teenager and even while reading this when I was a teenager I wanted Nothing to come to some revelation. I found the only character I felt bad for in the novel died early on. While the rest of the novel was supposed to be tense, or possibly filled with horror, I found I was flipping through without a true care as to what happened to the main characters. There were a few moments of suspense but nothing too frightful. In all honesty, the book reminded me of the countless horror stories that fill writing websites [...] Overall, I would say it's worth a read if you've nothing else to do and are craving any type of vampire story. Just don't expect too much

[Q]: "Some people are still water" . . . being a survivor can be Agony . . . . Alison McGhee's story is about 17 year-old Rose surviving a collision in which she and her older sister, Ivy, were innocent victims. Rose agonizes throughout Ivy's lengthy hospitalization, and the accident is replayed over & over; also the mother's 'coping mechanisms' - keeping her hands busy while her mind and heart cannot allow the release of Ivy from the hospital's life lines. This is a heart-wrenching story, like a movie that must be seen again and again - my reading became skimming at times: I identified Rose as a middle-schooler & didn't want her story to tell young girls that sex is a good release from the agony of being alive; nor is it safe, or without other consequences. (I was never comfortable about the time our daughters spent on the school bus!) McGhee's characters became a part of my life, not to be sloughed off easily. (Don't miss her other teen novel, "SNAP" - - also excellent reading for adults.) Reviewer mcHAIKU agrees with the judges for Minnesota's 2006 Book Awards that the author's "poetic text authentically and movingly reflects the thoughts and actions of a teen who is desperately trying to salvage her life." Alison McGhee's writing, and the characters that developed strengths, the quotes which melded to become prime movers for the telling , and the friends who cultivated the writer's talents - - all are to be admired. (p.s.: I do wonder why Alison McGhee left the Adirondacks for Minnesota?!)
