A girl who hates herself must have a queer boyfriend who hates himself just as much. The correlation between her cannibalism and her bodily rejection was so depressing. She only eats boys who want to be intimate with her, be that sexually or platonically. I haven't seen the movie yet but her consumption of Lee was so sad and not something that speaks to her self acceptance, at least, not in a positive way. Consuming Lee was the last thing she did as a human, as a person who could love and be loved. Really dark -- when she spends the whole book clinging to her humanity and then is fine with no longer caring, no longer looking for love, no longer wanting to be a human at all. Is that self acceptance? In a way, sure. She can work at a library, loving books, memorizing the call numbers of cannibals and demons, and eating anyone who shows a modicum of community with her. No man is an island, not even cannibals. it felt like such a weird strange ending, for this girl who spends the whole book ruminating on forgiveness, and nature, and trying to understand family to just go Jennifer's Body at the end. ( ) Plot: Maren grows up with her mother. They move around a lot, mostly because every once in a while Maren just can’t resist taking a bite out of somebody. Literally. Her mother does her best to keep her out of trouble and from harming people, but as soon as she’s 16years old, she is gone, leaving Maren nothing but her birth certificate. This gives her the chance to track down her father, so Maren sets off. Along the way she realizes that she is not the only one out there who likes to eat people. One of her people is Lee and the two of them decide to stick togehter for a while. As is so often the case, I liked Bones & All the novel better than I liked Bones and All the film. This has nothing to do with my own imagination being better than what is put on the screen (I don’t really do visual imagination), and everything with the fact that Bones & All the novel knows what it’s about and follows through with its theme(s).

Has been since her babysitter ended up all over her little OshKosh overalls. A fairly gruesome scene that starts off this book! This story felt like YA book version of the movie "Raw", but much less graphic. And exciting. I was bored with the road trips. And the Travis character was very weak, unbelievably so. I felt like the story began with such potential, but then just withered away into a travel/romance story. But my biggest issue with it all was the question that kept popping up for me - HOW did the eaters eat that much, that fast? It obviously is a fictional story, but physically, even these characters simply could not do what they were doing. So are the eaters endowed with magical stomachs and teeth and jaws that open and close faster than anything else ever? I can eat a lot, but doubt that I could eat more than a pound or two of boneless food in seven minutes. So, HOW do they do it? That bothered me - a lot! nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
