Unwind (original 2007; edition 2009)

This book is absolutely gripping. It has a brilliantly contrived plot that is both horrible and fascinating. This book made me question things I never would have questioned before reading it. I love how he gives subtle vents about the futuristic society, but lest you guess at many of the details. He ties everything together so well, and I couldn’t stop reading this book even if I had wanted to. All in all, one of the very best books I have ever read. I read this book because my friend told me it was a good book and I was drawn to the cover.

It is full of action and you could feel a connection with Connor, Risa, and Lev. I read this book because my teacher recommended it to me.

Wow. Review to come. ( )

This was an extremely fascinating manner in which to examine several different things. I'm not going to get involved in what the main issue or issues are that are examined. There are several things addressed and I'm sure there are going to be different interpretations. I don't want to put preconceptions into anyone's mind.

The important thing is that its a great story. It's exciting, suspenseful and emotional. You don't need to take away anything else from it. The story stands on its own.

I'm going to leave further comments for another time. I was asked how I would compare it to The Hunger Games and I have some other comments about the ending but I've just been interrupted so I'll save that for tomorrow morning or Tuesday. ( )
