Rennie Vogel Intrigue
review 1: Rennie Vogel is compelling. This story never takes a breath. I was completely held captive by the suspense and the intense narrative. Loved the pacing and the detail.Amy Dawson Robertson wrote a book that, for me, is unforgettable.The first thing I noticed was how quickly I fell into the story and started rooting for Rennie Vogel. Her guts and determination drew me in immediately. The story took twists I didn't expect but I never once doubted that I was running by her side. And I was thirsty-- all.the.time. Now how did she do that?I've never read anything so compelling that held us with almost completely narrative! This is a new style of really "fresh" writing.
review 2: "Miles to Go" is an impressive, ambitious page-turner of a novel set in the shadowy and br
... moreutal world of international terrorism. This is an exciting, fast-paced adventure that introduces us to Rennie Vogel, a superwoman of sorts, at least physically, driven by the need to live on the sharp edge of life. Not surprisingly, she occasionally gets cut. The story is presented from almost every character's point of view, offering us a glimpse into not only the minds of the "good" guys, but also the minds of the "bad" guys, one can only assume to promote the understanding that good and bad are inadequate descriptions, and that assumptions about why people do what they do are doomed by oversimplification. Why is so-and-so a terrorist? Why is so-and-so a spy? Why is so-and-so a patriot? In fact, the very definition of these terms comes into question over and over, even for a heroine more than willing to risk her life for her country. This novel speaks about the ambiguity of the heroic act. But that's the way we like our heroes--conflicted and in conflict--outcasts, living somewhere between light and dark and never sure of anything. Rennie Vogel is an intriguing character. We've gotten a tantalizing glimpse at who she is and what she can do. Now we want more. less

I really need to make a Boredom Quit shelf. Me and thrillers are just not to be apparently.
