Love in the Time of Global Warming by Francesca Lia Block
Seventeen-year-old Penelope (Pen) has lost everything—her home, her parents, and her ten-year-old brother. Like a female Odysseus in search of home, she navigates a dark world full of strange creatures, gathers companions and loses them, finds love and loses it, and faces her mortal enemy.
In her signature style, Francesca Lia Block has created a world that is beautiful in its destruction and as frightening as it is lovely. At the helm is Pen, a strong heroine who holds hope and love in her hands and refuses to be defeated.
What excites me about the book from reading the summary is that it's sounds dark & fantastical just like a lot of Francesca's works. I'm really excited to read this book! :D
ReplyDeleteDystopian novels are always interesting to me. Interesting ideas on how our world could change from what it is now to what it is in the book. And I like the play off of 'Love in the time of Cholera' in the title.
ReplyDeleteThe whole idea of this one, it sounds dark and tragic and exciting.
ReplyDeleteThe mysterious and fantastic adventure, and also the kick-ass heroine. Sounds great. :)
