Darker side of town stories are always enthralling and I love New Orleans! One of the funnest places to be!Sassy Sarah Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14475655781282809602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241170221728846509.post-79377000977882509382013-11-10T14:12:39.993-08:002013-11-10T14:12:39.993-08:00Ah yes, I'm SO glad you loved this Summer! I d...Ah yes, I'm SO glad you loved this Summer! I definitely agree it's character-driven; I cared so much for Josie, I actually resorted to tears halfway through the book just because I felt so damn terrible for her.<br /><br />I think your point about the lack of setting description is interesting... I always thought it was because Sepetys' New Orleans was made up of the people... as in, the huge array of characters and the fascinating cast actually made the setting (if that makes sense).<br /><br />I definitely need to re-read this soon. Ruta Sepetys actually sent me a signed card which is inside my copy. :D <br /><br />PS. Sorry for not commenting in awhile, I've had a lot of school stuff and bleurgh! :'(Ruby // Rustled Pageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01497768837938772551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6241170221728846509.post-1745230748071816672013-11-09T14:06:15.167-08:002013-11-09T14:06:15.167-08:00I should really read this.

I love books that portray the harsh realities--they're some of my favorites--and I think I would definitely enjoy reading this one. <br /><br />Great review. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01559414823544545672noreply@blogger.com
