review 1: I should give this one star but it did have some good parts but man, what a meandering, bizarre read. I get what the author was trying to accomplish but I felt she could have gone about it in a better way and without so much unnecessary detail. I mean, she should have stuck to the heart of the plot. It would have saved me a lot of time that I feel was totally wasted. Disappointing, to say the least.
review 2: The Promised World by Lisa Tucker is a fiction novel and psychological thriller. When successful literary professor Lila Cola learns about her twin brother Billy’s death, her life is turned upside down. Billy had been her rock and the bond they shared was indestructible. She describes a troubled childhood where she recalls little, however, Billy had fill... moreed in the gaps with stories of cheerful times. It isn’t until his death that Lila comes to know the truth about her childhood, family, and brother. Billy was incredibly intelligent and engaging. Lila found him to be a literary master as he constantly discussed books and shared theories with her. Lila could not fathom that her brother could point a gun out of a hotel window towards a school. While she believed he would never harm a fly, the police still took action and shot him dead. His “suicide by police” left Lila confused and alone, prompting her to dig up her past. What she understood from her childhood was dependent on the stories Billy had shared. Without his presence, she again felt lost and perplexed. The torment drove a wedge in her marriage and caused Lila to question other relationships. In the process, she learned greater truths about her mother, niece and nephew, and the “Cole curse.” The loss of her brother soon transformed Lila into what her friends and colleges saw to be unstable. Her condition even prohibited her from taking custody of her niece and nephew in times of need. I thought this was an interesting novel that kept my attention throughout. I think older secondary students might enjoy this book. The psychological after shock may be a facet students suffering from depression may relate to and learn from. Themes like relationships, abuse, and shock are revealed and may be enlightening and better understood by more mature students. Additionally, teenagers may better comprehend the heartaches, temptations, and shared relationships within the story. less
