I'm reading Marco Impossible right now, but Teeth will definitely be my next HM read.

I've been meaning to read a Moskowitz book for quite some time now - I was looking at Gone, Gone, Gone for awhile but now I'm considering starting with Teeth. Simply from reading her books' synopsizes I can already discern the unique quality of her stories.

I know we talked a little about Moskowitz before (and how I am a Moskowitz virgin) but if wasn't already sure I wanted to read her work, this review definitely convinced me. I love stories infused with magical elements and, as you well know, I am a sucker for pretty writing and well rounded characters. <br /><br />I am so glad you loved this book, K! It makes me feel better about picking it and any of HM's books up because getting your seal of approval can be a tough thing for book (and I LOVE that about you:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026974627724672435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-88175793051928622042013-01-31T15:43:43.145-05:002013-01-31T15:43:43.145-05:00Lol, so you've been posting your reviews on Go...Lol, so you've been posting your reviews on Goodreads when you write them, and I'm pretty sure I read it/talked about it with you there weeks ago, but I'm happy to see it up on the blog. Seriously, this just sounds beautiful, I've heard such great things about Hannah's books, but this is the first one that has really grabbed me as something I would LOVE. I've been checking my library literally every day to see if they've ordered it yet--I know they will eventually!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00416898799044848769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-91357604160274072592013-01-31T13:11:55.059-05:002013-01-31T13:11:55.059-05:00Wow.

It was so utterly enthralling that you have undoubtedly turned me into a masochist for wanting to read such a depressing and heart breaking book. <br /><br />I haven't read a book by this author, but I like the sound of her prose and her originality. Strange always appeals to me since I'm an odd bod myself. <br /><br />So, I cannot wait to get my hands on a copy of this.<br /><br />Impressive review! :)Livvyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17441931016080817720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-26441316861096236682013-01-31T11:54:10.485-05:002013-01-31T11:54:10.485-05:00Keertana you seriously nailed this review, I remem...Keertana you seriously nailed this review, I remember chatting to you recently on twitter and you were still jotting your thoughts down, but your love for this book and shone through. I know how hard it can be writing a review for a book that you loved so much. But this is so beautiful, I love gut wrenching reads that shatter your heart into a million pieces and stay on your mind for days afterwards, I think O will definitely be giving this book a try, but maybe when I'm feeling a bit more tough! :)Jasprithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346050783201302967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-32096637517876939242013-01-31T10:54:11.416-05:002013-01-31T10:54:11.416-05:00Oh your review is so convincing!

The reviews have been a little mixed... I do like the sound of the storyline though. It sounds incredibly different and original, and the characters clearly managed to leave an impression. Hmm... I will have to think about it!

I ogle at it, I pick it up, I carry it around, and then I somehow convince myself to set it down as I buy something else. I've considered checking it out from the library first, but I'm always down for beautiful prose and original stories -- and I've heard so many wonderful comments about <i>Teeth</i>!

What if it doesn't live up to my skyscraper-high expectations now?! I have never read any of Moskowitz's books, but it seems like (actually, it's obvious) I have to read this book! I actually have an eARC of it, hopefully I'll be able to get to it soon. The characterization and writing in this book sounds UNREAL. I cannot wait to read about Rudy and Teeth's difficult friendship, and the hardships that they have to endure. The concept is definitely unlike anything I've ever heard of--that, aside from your review, has caught my attention. <br /><br />Your review?

While I...Oh, man, such a gorgeous review, Keertana! While I didn't like this as much as you did, mostly because I was bothered by all the parallels with Kafka's The Metamorphosis, I completely agree with you about Rudy and Teeth. They are both such wonderful, heartbreaking characters and I truly did love them. <br />This book is way out there, but that's what I like most about Hannah. She's not afraid to write what she feels like writing. <br />As I said, fantastic review!Maja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3523300192245025551.post-73062623658950111812013-01-30T01:35:57.424-05:002013-01-30T01:35:57.424-05:00I'm not sure I can take a tragic or heartbreak...I'm not sure I can take a tragic or heartbreaking read for a while. When I'm ready again, I'll definitely consider this one. I'm listening to Montrous Beauty on audio and this reminded me a little of it with the talk of the sea. Lovely review, Keertana. :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16682335183798720529noreply@blogger.com
