Jeremy DeRuiter - Whirlwind Read!
I ripped through this book--and loved every chapter, every page, along the way. I alternated between reading it when home and listening to (the very well performed) Audible book during my commute.
It's not often that I am able to stumble across a book--I have so many waiting on my shelves to read, and receive so many recommendations from friends and podcasts alike, that I very rarely find myself blindly browsing Amazon. But when I received notification that Amazon was now offering a break on Kindle editions for books purchased through them, I went out specifically looking for a title I didn't already own, saw the rave reviews for Wool, along with the plug from Justin Cronin (having devoured The Passage and The Twelve), I pulled the trigger.
I love all sorts of Sci Fi, and dystopian post-apocalyptic is a particular sweet spot, so given that, and then Howey's incredible attention to building a fully lived-in and fleshed-out reality, and I was hooked. Great characters, stellar pacing, thrilling twists--so much fun! Can't recommend it highly enough!
And can I also just say how much fun it is to know there are already sequels out there waiting for me?! Hooray!
Great purchase, just what I wanted!
I'm a nursing student who was after a little book that I could keep on me when I needed to look up medications for patients. Very happy purchser.
Like most American CEO's, Mitt didn't know any women personally, however, he was saved by this binder. His staff filled it full of women and presented it to him so that he could make his selection. He also has a binder full of Hispanic's, and even one for Blacks. The Blacks Binder, however, doesn't contain women at this time. Soon, Binders Full of Asians will be released. At this time, there is no plan for any Binders Full of Middle Easterners or Gays to be released.
Stuck in an unhappy marriage and uncomfortable social settings, Grace Monroe is depressed. The options for women in her situation in 1955 are bleak. As her best friend Mallory states "Face it, a woman has to be very rich indeed to change husbands the way one changes clothes and get away with it." Although Grace is of a comfortable standing, when she receives "an inheritance from a mysterious stranger" her life takes a new direction. Curious to know the full background of her benefactor she takes off for Paris and unravels the mysterious connection between her and Eva D'Orsey.
The settings are absolutely delicious whether author Kathleen Tessaro is describing New York, London or Monte Carlo, you will sigh as a reader and wish that you were at that cafe, this office or that hotel. When Valmort walks into the Hotel Hermitage in Monte Carlo, Tessaro provides my favorite descriptive sentence of the book: " Guests were checking in and out, flowers were being delivered, and valets were scurrying to procure tickets for luggage and dinner reservations while exquisite women lounged on the rose silk settees, pulling lazily at the fingers of their white gloves and smoking gold-tipped Russian cigarettes behind the veils of their hats." Lovers, mistresses, and prostitutes were kept in grand style in the 1920s. Hotels were places of entertainment both public and private and there is just as much going on behind the scenes with the servants as there is in the ballroom with the guests. The decadence pours off the page.
The characters provide wonderful cutting remarks and insight to personal frictions, such as Madame's warning of "Some day you will have a nemesis...someone who has the ability to do everything you wish you could, but with greater ease, style, success."
And of course, perfume plays as prominent of a role as any character in this story. I myself have never been a fan of perfume however, I love that Valmort found that the perfume "blended naturally" and "finished her." I believe it is true that a person "adds to the composition" of a scent, that it doesn't exist to stand alone. Scent triggers memories and one scent can evoke such different responses in people. To one the scent may invoke happiness while another may experience bleakness. I liked the concept of a perfumerie where you concoct a scent specifically for you rather than purchasing a a mass produced scent where you may smell exactly like the next woman on the train or at a party.
I have not read anything previously by Kathleen Tessaro but based on how much I enjoyed the mental vacation.
