About this deal

I found the characters endearing, maddening, stupid and amusing but they always remained obvious characters in a story. The trial and tribulations of the characters really intensify in the second part of the novel, and there are moments of real tension and anxiety where your heart really goes out to the lead characters. and the mystery would be solved paragraphs or pages later (there's actually an event in the book, where she and two others picked up a girl who was running away, and I still don't know who the other two were!

I know the answer to the last question: because sometimes these things surprise you and you end up with a Room, which you think sounds dumb and potentially boring and then ends up amazing. Overall, When God Was a Rabbit is a beautiful story about and family and friendship, and all of the different kinds of love you can encounter in your life. When the chaotic disasters of modern culture and modern tragedies like 9/11 are pipped against a family setting of a sleepy British backdrop then it’s no wonder that Winman’s characters become confused with the expectations of their own mental world. That's the person I know, and through him is the way you'll know me, because connected to all these things are moments, and for so many of them, I was there. So I downloaded the sample and found it quite interesting but with a hint of "the style of writing I'm not sure I'd enjoy".Hearst UK is the trading name of the National Magazine Company Ltd, 30 Panton Street, Leicester Square, London, SW1Y 4AJ. Elly’s brother Joe, older by five years, becomes her eyes to the world outside, his thoughts inform her thoughts, his reading shapes her world, he becomes her world. I also felt a bit let down that Jenny didn't feature much in the second half, given her powerful presence in the first, and that the elements of magical realism weren't resolved/explained. This is one of those ubiquitous books that I ended up reading mainly because I kept seeing it everywhere, and it turned out to be a lot better than I thought it might be, given its obvious popularity.

Watched her with different coloured eyes, until the raging energy that coursed through my body finally revealed itself and gave itself a name: envy.I found chapters, paragraphs and lines that were unnecessary and just adding a bit more to the confusion that was already there.
