Two very different books...
Mar. 18th, 2007 10:41 pmJust finished Keturah and Lord Death (Martine Leavitt) last night, and for some reason it's stuck itself in my head with Criss Cross (Lynne Rae Perkins), which I read a little while ago. Possibly because ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
emmaco's thinking Criss Cross was wonderful had made me even more anxious to read it and my mentioning that I had Keturah had made her jealous. Or perhaps because they seem so very different to me, in ways which have nothing whatsoever to do with their being very different kinds of books. Or perhaps it's just that I'm going to manage nothing more sensible by way of reaction to them than saying that Criss Cross left me feeling satisfied in a sort of light and un-sated way, while Keturah made me feel -- almost a bit queasy..
Behind cuts, with minimal spoilers, except where warning is given... (And Criss Cross is first, Emma, so you can avoid reading anything about Keturah!)
( more about the books... )
