(continue) Not as good as Labyrinth, although got into it and was gripped at the end (yay!). The style of writing was a bit odd; I know one of the characters was contemporary American, but really, some of the descriptions were bordering on Romance novel style and language overly Americanised in her sections. Do I need to know how lithe and slender the girl is when it has no bearing whatsoever on the story? or what label her cardigan, make of phone etc? Unless of course it was one of those sponsored mentions (which worked btw - I can remember it was an Abercrombie & Fitch cardi - Oh dear...)

	The Accidental (Penguin Celebrations) By Ali Smith Finished on Aug 13, 2009 Add... My Shelf Wish List

A monkey made me cry... Neither a fan of biography, nor particularly of animals, so this book was received somewhat luke-warmly... However, I loved it! Ascerbic wit (from the 'monkey' himself no less!), glamorous scandal in 30s Hollywood, and ultimately a v poignant tale of - unrequited- friendship. I admit I had te ... (continue) Neither a fan of biography, nor particularly of animals, so this book was received somewhat luke-warmly... However, I loved it! Ascerbic wit (from the 'monkey' himself no less!), glamorous scandal in 30s Hollywood, and ultimately a v poignant tale of - unrequited- friendship. I admit I had tears in my eyes at the end... Brilliant novel. Is this helpful? ― Posted on Jun 16, 2009 \| Add your feedback
