This is basically like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for kids. As a grown-up, I really don't need to read another story about a supposed utopia that is actually *gasp* a dystopia. But, of course, to most child readers this will not come off as a tired trope. "Too good to be true" is a real thing, kids! Be suspicious of anyone who tells you it's possible to live in this world without discomfort. What a gorgeous, gorgeous book. children's middlegrade fiction (identical twin 5th grade girls dealing with grief move to a town where standards of happiness are enforced) This is slower story but atmospheric and creepy enough to make a compulsive read for middlegraders--details like Veema's longing for "a new best friend" while fiddling with half of a best friend necklace amongst the large collection of necklaces she wears every day, Elodee's repeated attempts to make a specific jasmine-olive oil cake that is NOT one of the town's sanctioned recipes, and the secret photograph she finds tucked under the tea-set pique just enough interest to keep one hooked into the story. The ending is gloriously tear-stained and appropriately positive for this age level. I don't think it stands out enough to win the Newbery, necessarily, but it's a solid read. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

To Elodee, eleven, things seem a little too perfect in Eventown when she moves there with her parents and identical twin, Naomi, especially since forgetting the past is so highly valued. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
