The book haunted me for several days.<br /><br />It IS a hard book to describe, but I found it so compelling I couldn't put it down. I was terrified when the young boy almost died from the anaconda. <br /><br />I always thought I'd love to visit Brazil, but after reading this book, I'm not so sure . . . ;-) Patchett brought it completely to life, so vivid. <br /><br />You are such a good reviewer, girl, did you know that?!

That settles it. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
