This is one of the stranger books I have read and I have
read some strange ones. People start to
lose their shadows and the shadows are what keeps memories. The story is about people becoming
shadowless and the journey to save their memories.
The shadow free folks begin to exhibit traits that threaten
those with shadows and are consequently persecuted. This leads to some extremely bizarre
reactions by those without shadows.
I finished the book but it was a bit of a struggle. Lots and lots of introspection leavened with
occasional action. It will probably end
up as required reading by psych classes.
I've read some of the reviews and obviously some folks have seen more in this book than I did. Dystopian novels can pique your interest or not. This one did not pique my interest.
This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
