Well, it was like a really long, disjointed nightmare. I kinda figured it out about 3/4 of the way through. Interesting and scary idea. I'd pass on this one. ( ) Another book that makes me wish Goodreads allowed half-stars--it would be two and a half. While there were parts of the book I really enjoyed, many transitions left me confused, and the ending was supremely unsatisfying. I don't know this author's other work but I felt she made some classic non-fantasy-writer trying fantasy types of mistakes. Many fun parts but I don't think young readers will be impressed by the ending. No Passengers Beyond This Point is a book that I wanted to read for a long time based on the very cool cover. The book did not disappoint! Each chapter was told from a different point of view. I enjoyed this because India was such a typical teenager, Finn was so much the brother who wants to help everybody, and Mouse was a little girl who knew a ton of facts, but had some social struggles. I felt terrible for them when they lost their home and had to move. I felt even worse when they had to struggle through their new home and strange land. No one would give them any answers, and they had so much to figure out! I kept thinking about it and wondering if I had it all correct, but I wasn't really sure until the end. And even then, there is a little mystery (I don’t want to give anything away). This is a book that will make you think. It made me realize that it's our will to live and our will to survive that gets us to where we are. I recommend this book to kids in fourth grade and up, and to people who have a sense of adventure. What would you do if you were in a new place and had to decide if you should stay or go? I had considered this title for our Mock Newbery group, but after listening to it on CD with my kids, I decided that there wasn't enough to it. It's a weird fantasy/survival story with 3 child characters, the oldest of whom is entirely too annoyingly adolescent, too unbelievably attached to an undeserving friend in a time of familial crisis. Without revealing the indecipherable-at-first-listening surprise ending, let it just be said that neither the characters, plot, nor otherweirdly setting merit the reader's time. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
