Not only was the story and characters well written, but I learned more about monarchs (enriched by the links provided by other members) and climate change. I was thankful that Ovid kept his integrity. I even enjoyed the bright orange monarch-like pages inside the covers.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155188609487120887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116725405154613998.post-62769262783129971452013-02-10T02:15:28.362-05:002013-02-10T02:15:28.362-05:00I loved this book!

I've been a fan of Barbara Kingsolver for a lot time - and this is one of my favorites of all of her novels.alisonwonderlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08652716231337658058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116725405154613998.post-42674449633171560922013-02-01T11:05:31.199-05:002013-02-01T11:05:31.199-05:00http://monarchwatch.org/bring-back-the-monarchs/

After noticing the post that she does leave Cub, I'm wondering whether it is "just" to attend college. The only things I liked about Dellarobia were her enthusiasm for learning and the love that she showed for her children. I did not like her superiority complex especially in her treatment of Cub.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155188609487120887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116725405154613998.post-31201286452455842122013-01-31T13:31:48.167-05:002013-01-31T13:31:48.167-05:00FB was a fabulous book to read, on a scale of one ...FB was a fabulous book to read, on a scale of one to ten I give it an eight. I was delighted knowing a mom with two small children return to school, although sorry she left Cub. The last few pages were a surprise, never expected the water. I enjoy books that have descriptive phrases you can picture in your mind. Monarch butterflies are stunning creature with their prominent colors. <br /><br />caboosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16367050643737981140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116725405154613998.post-76858201321361213982013-01-29T18:12:23.083-05:002013-01-29T18:12:23.083-05:00I still haven't finished the book even though ...I still haven't finished the book even though it is an excellent read.

If they change their overwintering location due to global climate change, they surely would just be stopping farther north in Mexico, not transplanting themselves to the mountains of Tennessee. It took too much suspension of disbelief for me to accept that!Zorrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00227456296100012961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116725405154613998.post-71503854143039909732013-01-29T08:25:23.785-05:002013-01-29T08:25:23.785-05:00I think I must have gotten that quote from someone...I think I must have gotten that quote from someone's review on Goodreads, but I have not been able to find the source. I will keep looking and let you all know who wrote that about the book. <br /><br />My local reading group will be discussing the book next fall. <br /><br />What do you all think about the book as a whole? <br /><br />Zorrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00227456296100012961noreply@blogger.com
