it was amazing

This next novel is probably one of the most cogent and subtle of the stories, or at least it was probably one of the more profound. Loss took on a brand new spin this time. Loss of identity, purpose, and even his alternate life. Simon's tale was as interesting and heartwarming as it was also full of loss. How both of them got back on their feet was the main impetus of the story, although it was hardly a straight line. In Miles's case, it was part happy accident, a realization that he needed to make up for his mistakes, and the need to do what was right. Fortunately, he could call in some major chips to speed him along the right path.

It was an enheartening novel, and infinitely less flashy than some of the previous ones, but probably one of the most satisfying.

Choko Miles has the friends who would always be there for him, as well as the connections and the cajones to use them! Great series and great review!


Bradley Such a great series. I'm tempted to do a third readthrough. :)


Inna I love Miles. Great series.


Choko I can totally see myself rereading it multiple times too:):):)


Bradley Do I smell a possible buddy read in the future? :)


Choko Hahaha! I would love it:):):)


Bradley Name the time! :)

And are we starting with the chronological order, publication order, or are we just focusing on Miles or are we (as we should) include his mom? (But perhaps skip Falling Free? but NOT skip Ivan?) lol


Choko Chronological order and include everything:) I just need to finish my first read and we can do a re-read after:):):)


Bradley LOL that seems to be the consensus. :) That's how I did it last time, too, but publication order the first time. :) No problem!


Sheryl Hill *This* is why I follow you, Bradley!


Bradley :) :)
