BOOK REVIEWS FROM MELANIE

The Realm of Possibility by David Levithan

This one's made up of 20 short stories each about a different person (all high school students), many of whose lives intersect. It was well written, as Levithan usually is, but it did get a bit confusing dealing with so many people and so many relationships. I almost felt the need to draw myself a character web.

 


Love is the Higher Law by David Levithan

 

This one was pretty good. It was a pretty short, quick read about three young people in NYC and how their lives were affected by 9/11. It starts when the attack happens, and goes through the aftermath for each, in alternating chapters. I recommend it; I already made my mother read it.
