Pranjali | 4634 comments Making Faces
Ambrose Young was beautiful. He was tall and muscular, with hair that touched his shoulders and eyes that burned right through you. The kind of beautiful that graced the covers of romance novels, and Fern Taylor would know. She'd been reading them since she was thirteen. But maybe because he was so beautiful he was never someone Fern thought she could have...until he wasn't beautiful anymore.

Making Faces is the story of a small town where five young men go off to war, and only one comes back. It is the story of loss. Collective loss, individual loss, loss of beauty, loss of life, loss of identity. It is the tale of one girl's love for a broken boy, and a wounded warrior's love for an unremarkable girl. This is a story of friendship that overcomes heartache, heroism that defies the common definitions, and a modern tale of Beauty and the Beast where we discover that there is little beauty and a little beast in all of us.

Pranjali | 4634 comments Yes, I think too that the story is moving too fast....maybe it's only in intial chapters....I am on 3rd chap


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah.. and Ambrose and Fern are still foreign to me. I have started third. Introduction of characters is slightly lacking.


Pranjali | 4634 comments Do you remember the world trade center attack???
I was 9 or 10, when it happened and remember watching it on tv......it was really very scary, building's collapsing like that!!!!


Pranjali | 4634 comments You'll get to know Fern and Bailey a liitle in this chapterbut not so much of Ambrose


message 19: by [deleted user] (new)

No. Actually I dont remember anything about it.but it was pathetic.


message 20: by [deleted user] (new)

I really dont understand whats going on. I like Baily but he is more focused than Ambrose.


Pranjali | 4634 comments Yes Fern and Bailey's realtionship is more focused, and we dont know anything important Ambrose

message 36: by [deleted user] (new)

I started 5th


message 37: by [deleted user] (new)

So, Ambrose chose beautiful, huh?? Thats sad. I hate it when people are only into looks.


Pranjali | 4634 comments okay good :)


Pranjali | 4634 comments the scene where fern was wating for ambrose to return his notes, was very sad na.......how he treated her


message 40: by [deleted user] (new)

Yeah. All boys are like that. Just imagine is fern was pretty, bhag ke jata.
I am readin 5th. Looks like he has already forgotten about Fern. I thought he liked those letter.


Pranjali | 4634 comments Me too, I thought atlest he would respect her and maybe friends with her.....but sadly no:(


message 42: by [deleted user] (new)

Ambrose is mistery for me. I just dont get him. I dont know what he thinks about fern or letters or Rita. What he felt when Rita told him truth?
what he thinks abt his looks or fern's? Now he wants to join army. Thats nice but I really need Ambrose's point of view on everything.


message 43: by [deleted user] (new)

I read about prom. I felt bad for Baily and Fern. Baily asked those guys to dance with her, I think, that was pathetic


Pranjali | 4634 comments Yes, also Bailey and fern talk in the car was very heartbreaking


Pranjali | 4634 comments What's the progress???
