I thought it would get better. And it was short. So I kept reading Vagabond Virgins and when I finished it, I wanted to chuck it across the room. Ho hum. It could have been awesome. Anything with Virgin sightings could be awesome and SHOULD be awesome. Anything that mentions Carlos Santana should also be awesome.
This book. Wasn’t.
I’ve got a love hate feeling about The Used World.
I loved the characters but also hated them because they were so damn stereotypical. I loved the story but it was so damn predictable. I loved the writing.

I see why Postcards From No Man’s Land won the Printz. It started a little slow or was a little confusing, I’m not sure which, but it settled down and it was interesting. It also didn’t read like a YA book. Lots of tough topics to think about – war, infidelity, “love”, “marriage”, euthanasia, even a wee bit of polyamory tossed in. And, another look at Anne Frank. Interesting book.
