read this one for class! really good, although i will say up front it's one of those books where you just kind of have to accept at the beginning that you're not going to entirely understand what's happening most of the time, and just sort of do your best to enjoy the ride. or you can try and make a whole timeline/character relationship chart. i actually might do that later, when i'm not sleepy and don't have like 7 readings due tomorrow. anyway. good book! love it when there is a house.
