It's well worth the time. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

I love the comparisons you've made. I especially love The Giver and Alice In Wonderland. If this is anything as bizarre and interesting as what you've described, then I'm sure to love this book. I've added it to my list, thanks! :)

I do too. It has just a hint of the Giver but is every bit as zany as Alice in Wonderland. I hope you like it as much as I did! Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

The first paragraph is really fanscinating that it makes you tag along. That's a good review.

I am currently reading another Tara Basi book, but I have downloaded this one and cannot wait to find the time to read it. Your description of the world makes me even more excited to get to this book, especially those last two pages.

I've branched out to other Tara Basi books as well since reviewing this one. I have yet to find one that beats it out though. I absolutely loved this book and I hope you do too! Thanks for stopping in and commenting!

I just wanted to note somewhere that I just finished reading this book and that it was delightful. I was really not expecting it to stay so smart and fun and multi-layered but still fun through to the bitter-ish end.

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Yes, the ending was, to say the least, stunning...not as in beautiful, although kind of that too, but as in a gobsmacking kind of way. Not certain that came out clearly but I'm sure you know what I mean. No spoilers for others!! :no-spoil: Thanks so much for stopping in and commenting!
