Read in July, 2010

I first heard Kim read from this novel at Whitman College a few years ago and just finished reading it yesterday. Wow. WOW. Beautifully constructed with a few major twists that are gorgeous. I hope to write something this beautiful some day.

The copy editor may have fallen asleep toward the end--a few left out words and the character Elise's name appeared as Elsie at least once. Frustrating moments in an otherwise fine book.

Jim Thomsen Yea for good books; boo for bad copy-editing. Thus saith this copy editor. :)
