Book Twentyeight: Oxygen
8.21.2009
Oxygen, Carol Cassella
Hmmm... While this book read quite easily and quickly, there was something slightly unsatisfying about it in the end. There were certainly some interesting ideas and themes in it, and yet there was something not quite fully explored at the same time. I don't know... I feel torn. I think this book was meant to ultimately shock the reader, and I didn't leave feeling shocked. I just felt kind of tense the whole time. Does that give you any idea what this book is like? Probably not, and for that I apologize. Just go read any review of this (very popular) book or the back flap and you'll know the basic plot, you don't need me to sum it up again.
