I didn’t think I was going to like Everybody Sees the Ants. The whole Vietnam – POW/MIA – escapes to the Laos jungle thing just seemed… not my thing.
And at first, it wasn’t. The dreams were weird, through the whole book – but particularly at the beginning. Luckily, Lucky is a great character and the supporting cast – particularly the characters in Arizona, are excellent. (The Vagina Monologues pieces, hah. Totally amused. Not sure Lucky would really have reacted that way – but hey, it’s fiction. We can dream…)
A book I thought would take me a few days to read because I didn’t really love it – ended up causing me to stay up til midnight to finish it all one one sitting.
