Library of Souls: The Third Novel of Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children, by Ransom Riggs

The movie adaptation of Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children is in theaters September 2016.

The New York Times #1 best selling series

A boy with extraordinary powers. An army of deadly monsters. An epic battle for the future of peculiardom.

The adventure that began with Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and continued in Hollow City comes to a thrilling conclusion with Library of Souls. As the story opens, sixteen-year-old Jacob discovers a powerful new ability, and soon he’s diving through history to rescue his peculiar companions from a heavily guarded fortress. Accompanying Jacob on his journey are Emma Bloom, a girl with fire at her fingertips, and Addison MacHenry, a dog with a nose for sniffing out lost children. They’ll travel from modern-day London to the labyrinthine alleys of Devil’s Acre, the most wretched slum in all of Victorian England. It’s a place where the fate of peculiar children everywhere will be decided once and for all. Like its predecessors, Library of Souls blends thrilling fantasy with never-before-published vintage photography to create a one-of-a-kind reading experience.

Amazon.com Review

An Amazon Best Book of September 2015: When we last saw Jacob and his peculiar companions in Hollow City they were in the kind of danger that left me chewing my fingernails waiting for the next book to see if they make it out alive. The Library of Souls did indeed pull me off the previous cliff, but if you know Ransom Riggs and the Miss Peregrine’s Peculiar Children series, you know there is more where that came from. As we’ve come to expect, the third book in the series has an abundance of strange and absorbing black and white photographs that came from all sorts of places yet look as though they were created just for this particular piece of the puzzle—at this point, the photos provide an undercurrent as critical to the overall flow of the story as the words themselves. I don't want to spoil the read so I won't tell you (as much as I'd like to...) about reversals and time loops, evil doers and acts of heroism that make up this tantalizing novel, but let me just say that I found the whole thing, from beginning to end, to be every bit as mysterious, surprising, and gratifying as I’d hoped it would be. --Seira Wilson

From School Library Journal
Gr 8 Up—A thrilling and satisfying installment in Riggs's "Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children" series. The book picks up where Hollow City (Quirk, 2014) left off without missing a beat, catapulting the children on a dark chase through London and various time loops in a final confrontation against the evil wights and the monstrous hollowgasts. In Hollow City, the children were trying to save Miss Peregrine. In Library of Souls, the fate of all Peculiardom is at stake. As in the previous books, the characters, their relationships, and their special abilities help to inform the world-building, and the detailed descriptions set the tone, which covers the spectrum from humorous to suspenseful to downright terrifying. An old adage states that a picture is worth a thousand words, and, as in the previous books, found photographs continue to illustrate the unique cast of characters and fantastical settings. The photos collected by Riggs are a highlight, adding a believable confirmation to the spectacular narrative. Readers new to the series should start with the first book, and interest in the titles will only grow, as Tim Burton's film adaptation is scheduled for March 2016. VERDICT This YA series has strong crossover appeal; this latest volume is a must-purchase where fans have embraced the first two.—Billy Parrott, New York Public Library

Review
“...enthralling...”—Children's Bookwatch

“Fans of the trilogy’s first two books will enjoy Library of Souls for its unique world, fast action, satisfying answers and a thorough tying up of loose ends.”—Free Lance-Star

“I was blown away by the way the haunting photographs were woven so seamlessly into the incredible plot. And Library of Souls has simply the most perfect ending.”—Nikki, Justine Magazine

“Oh, my birds, I love this book! I’m obsessed with Ransom Riggs’ wildly creative world packed with heroic, heartwarming characters, supper baddies, and incredible settings like Devil’s Acre and the Library of Souls.”—Annalyse, Justine Magazine

“Library of Souls will not disappoint...”—Forces of Geek

"The challenge Riggs faces in�Library of Souls�is to match the remarkably high standard set by the first two books in the series, either the mind-bending bafflements of the first book or the edge-of-your-seat action of the second. Riggs succeeds, delivering a thrilling conclusion to Jacob’s trilogy."—Paste�magazine

"Readers are sure to leap right in after the cliffhanger ending of Hollow City, and they won’t be disappointed."—RT Book Review, 4 1/2 out of 5 stars

"Fans will easily lose themselves in this most peculiar tale of all."—Booklist

"I enjoyed reading this book so much, the cliched, 'I couldn’t put it down,' doesn’t suffice."—Geeks of Doom

"...thrilling and satisfying..."—School Library Journal

A fine finish
By YoyoMitch
Reading a trilogy is a gamble. The first book introduces the characters, the setting and the plot; the second creates the tension and drama that drives the story to a “cliff” from which the reader hangs until the final novel arrives and that installment brings to a conclusion the questions, mysteries raised in the first two installments with the heroes having faced life-threatening situations (sometimes) successfully. If the trilogy is a “success,” by its completion the reader will feel: as satisfied as if they had completed an arduous journey, sad to say goodbye to people with whom they had traveled but joyful at having experienced a trip whose memories will last a life time. In all aspects, this book was a fitting completion of a most satisfying trilogy.
The “cliff” from which we were left hanging at the end of Hollow City was in a station of the London “tube” at the present time (Jacob, Emma, et al, having been forced through a time loop into this moment) amidst the smoke and rubble of a fierce battle fought with the wights. The survivors of the fight were facing a Hollowgast (a monster created when a Peculiar acts against his/her nature) who was intent on devouring them. The resolution of that moment was shocking and seemed overly contrived but was fitting for the story arc. The next 48-72 hours were relentless for Jacob and his crew as they searched for their missing companions and mentors.
As they searched London the side streets and familiar sights were welcoming while holding the potential for danger. Eventually, Jacob and his crew meet Sharon, a peculiar Peculiar who would take them through a loop to The Devil’s Acre, “the most retched slum of Victorian England,” where their friends were taken. This is the location of many addicted, conniving, thieving, untrustworthy Peculiar who could not “fit in” anywhere else. Its topography is the stuff of nightmares, its mysteries dark and plentiful and its intent is deception – all-in-all the perfect location for the final show down of “good” and “evil.” In that final confrontation the young Jacob learns the power of wounds and the reality that some hurts will not heal because the one harmed chooses to hold onto the injury.
The last twenty-two pages may be the best writing of the series. The story is brought full-circle finding Jacob back where he started. The dangers he now faces, in many ways, are the most perilous of all. His definitions of “trust,” “love,” “protection” are challenged beyond comfortable limits by those who had the responsibility to teach him those concepts and protect him by their use. The book ends with “closure” but that doesn’t stop Mr. Riggs from leaving some questions unanswered.
This is a Young Adult series and therefore has no explicit sex (what desire that is displayed is� reflective of the furtive steps of teenagers experiencing their first romance), harsh language (there is some “colorful” language, however) but some of the details of the violence & its aftermath are quite graphic. As with the previous novels, this novel is illustrated with antique photographs collected from yard sales and flea markets; there seems to be fewer in this volume, but the ones present bring depth to the story, lending it a “sepia” hue.
I will miss the Peculiar Children who were watched over by Ms. Peregrine. Actually, I will be more alert for the company of Peculiars in my present world. If I gleaned anything from this fictional series it is that being “peculiar” means ones power is unique. Such a realization raises the question of, “Just how peculiar am I?”

Not peculiar enough in some ways, too peculiar in others...
By Kindle Customer
While I'm a fan of Mrs. Peregrine and all her children, I found book 3 to be lacking just a bit. There were too little of the parts that made the first two books special (peculiar children, for example), and too much of the stuff that made the first two books odd (the story written to match vintage photographs instead of the vintage photographs used to compliment the story, for example).� Book 3 was full of those little annoyances that sink otherwise good books--loose strings that don't get resolved, characters of significance written off to unsatisfactory endings, and a sluggish plot that don't got to the meat until the last 15% of the book to name a few.

I was very pleased with the series conclusion, however, and that is the saving grace of Library of Souls. �

Fans of the series are going to read the last book in the trilogy no matter what.� If you haven't picked up book one yet, I say go for it.� There is enough fun to be had that make this peculiar journey worth the ride.

A gimmick that fades like old photos
By William L. Dockery
The first book in the series was a creative tour de force, using a series of odd old photos as the springboard for some atmospheric, enthralling flights of the imagination. I was sold on it, still am.

The old-photo gimmick began to wear a little thin in the second book, but it inspired the writer enough to hold my attention. The flaw in the second was that it was half a book, leaving the reader stuck with a rather bald half plot.

In "Library of Souls," the photo gimmick utterly failed, and Riggs was left to create a final novel that had nothing to drive it forward but its plot. Implausible circumstances, nick-of-time coincidences, Jacob's magical ability to exert a little mind-control ju-ju over the hollows, even a suspension of the novel's own rules to make the hero and heroine magically become the same age and thus save their relationship.

I had the distinct feeling that Riggs was slogging his way through the writing (as I was the reading). He tried to milk a one-book gimmick into a trilogy and it just didn't work.

Great Reference Book

"More American than apple pie and more indigenous"
By Linda Bulger
If you don't hunt or fish, you may think The L.L. Bean Game and Fish Cookbook would have no appeal for you at all. You should know, however, that besides being the gold standard for the genre, it's one of the most readable and sophisticated cookbook classics you could have on your shelf. Although I've only used the fish recipes, I've thoroughly enjoyed reading the stylish Game section..

Take a trip through this wonderful book and you'll be convinced. Here are some of the highlights, by chapter.

RED MEAT:
We learn that any gamy taste is caused by "improper handling of the game animal when it was dressed, butchered, or transported." A key to method of preparation is the age of the animal and there are some excellent tips for determining age.

Take note that moose "skinny from the rut" are best larded.

If you avoid these pitfalls you can reward yourself with a fine Buck and Bourbon; Venison Chili; Moose A La Mode; or Blanquette of Antelope. (Rejected out of hand by the reviewer: A Highland Haggis, starting with red deer tripe and lungs.)

You could, of course, substitute a more familiar meat in many of these recipes.

SMALL FURRED GAME:
Here you find a wealth of information about proper prep.

On the beaver: "Its preparation involves a bit of doing" -- cutting out musk glands, soaking. Roast it whole, with sage dressing sewn up inside. Or the possum: "Remember a possum should be handled first to last just as you would handle a suckling pig." Roast Possum With Yams can be your reward.

GAME BIRDS:
This chapter begins with an excellent overview of handling and hanging, and removing shot pellets from game birds. The authors' warning to the cook: "Shooters cleaning a number of birds get careless about this sometimes, so the cook may have to exert quality control."

Once you have your bird prepared, there are some truly wonderful recipes offered. Among the most appealing are Roast Stuffed Pheasant With Sorrel; Pheasant Marengo; Partridge or Grouse Pie With Oysters; Wild Turkey Gumbo. This and the WATERFOWL chapter are the most familiar and accessible of the Game section.

FISH:
"Like asparagus and corn, the sooner killed (or picked) and cooked the better." Supporting that advice, the authors advocate catch-and-release, with only enough fish taken for the day's meal.

These recipes stand equal to any you will find in your cookbook collection. The first is the simplest and the most evocative: Trout Sauteed In Butter. Other wonderful offerings are Baked Salmon Fillets Lapland Style; Baked Stuffed Great Northern Pike; Swordfish Chowder; Roast Wild Duck With Orange Sauce; and a mouth-watering Fresh-water Bouillabaisse.

Besides recipes, Angus Cameron and Judith Jones produced a full-service manual for preparing food from the wild -- in the wild. They cover general camp recipes, pointers for handling food, and useful implements.

The spirit of this book resides, I think, in the wonderful advice for would-be camp cooks, which could be translated to cooking in the home as well. "...The hunting camp cook becomes a kind of privileged character...He never bucks or splits or totes a stick of wood; he never washes or dries a dish or a cup; he carries no water sloshing icily on his stagged pants from the lake or spring."

And clearly he--or she--eats like royalty, if this classic cookbook goes along on the trip.

Linda Bulger, 2008

The Best Game Cookbook Available
By A Reviewer
As an avid hunter and fisherman, I am always looking for great game recipes. This book delivers. I have owned it for many years and have prepared virtually all of the many venison recipes, as well as many others. I have never been disappointed. Some favorites include Buck with Bourbon, Venison steak with Porcini mushrooms, Devil River Venison (a spicy casserole from Texas of venison with pinto beans), and the Scottish classic Steak and a Dram (venison steak in a sauce made with Stilton Cheese and just a dash of Scotch Whisky). Another favorite is Heart of Venison Braised with Root Vegetables. Even if you don't like heart this dish will make you a believer. There are also many great ground venison recipes. For anyone who hunts or fishes and loves to eat what they catch, this book would be an outstanding choice.

Punishment, by Thom Brooks

Punishment is a topic of increasing importance for citizens and policymakers. Why should we punish criminals? Which theory of punishment is most compelling? Is the death penalty ever justified? These questions and many others are addressed in this highly engaging guide.

Punishment is a critical introduction to the philosophy of punishment, offering a new and refreshing approach that will benefit readers of all backgrounds and interests. The first critical guide to examine all leading contemporary theories of punishment, this book explores – among others – the communicative theory of punishment, restorative justice, and the unified theory of punishment. Thom Brooks examines several case studies in detail, including capital punishment, juvenile offending, and domestic abuse. Punishment highlights the problems and prospects of different approaches in order to argue for a more pluralistic and compelling perspective that is novel and groundbreaking.

Punishment is a textbook designed to introduce both undergraduate and postgraduate students to the topic of punishment. It will be essential for undergraduate students in: philosophy, criminal justice, criminology, justice studies, law, politics, and sociology.

Review

"Lucid, fair-minded, and well-informed, Thom Brooks’ Punishment offers a superb introduction to a complex and contentious subject. Many a perplexed student will find illumination in his patient discussion of each of the leading theories. The way Brooks shows their interconnectedness and application in practice – to capital punishment, juvenile offenders, domestic violence, and the like – will interest not only students but scholars as well."

―Stuart P. Green, Distinguished Professor of Law and Nathan L. Jacobs Scholar, Rutgers School of Law

�"As a topic in moral and political philosophy, punishment has been jolted back to life. In the last quarter century, retribution has returned with a vengeance, both in the theoretical literature and (with a very different emphasis) in public policy. The rise of the victim as a player in the criminal justice system has also fuelled a counter-trend, placing an emphasis on redress. Human rights, privatization, globalization, the rise of the therapist, the lobbyist, the terrorist: all have affected our ways of punishing and of thinking about punishment. A new survey of the terrain is overdue. And who better to conduct it than Thom Brooks, whose grasp of the literature and feel for the issues is second to none? From the noble ideals of ‘communicative’ theory to the grim realities of children in prison: in Punishment Brooks covers it all with insight, rigour, and energy."

―John Gardner, Professor of Jurisprudence, University of Oxford

�"Thom Brooks has produced a valuable introduction to, and critical survey of, current theoretical approaches to punishment together with an analysis of their implications for practice. In addition, he has provided a spirited defence of a new, unified theory inspired by the British Idealists and encompassing retributive, consequentialist, and restorative elements. Written in a lucid and engaging style, the book will interest a wide range of readers – students, theorists of punishment, as well as those engaged in criminal justice policy."

―Alan Brudner, Albert Abel Professor Emeritus, Faculty of Law, University of Toronto

"Thom Brooks’ Punishment is a rare thing: a book about a complex and important topic that is both of interest for experts and accessible to non-experts."

―Andrew Cornford, Lecturer in Criminal Law, The University Of Edinburgh, in Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books.

"This book has the ability to speak to a wide audience about the theoretical and practical issues surrounding the discussion of punishment. It’s illustration of the application of general and hybrid theories to case studies of different types of crime allows the reader to understand how such theories can be applied and discussed in practice in contemporary western society." ― Helen Nichols, Prison Service Journal

Interesting, often novel, and useful (4.5 stars)
By A Reader
Thom Brooks' book _Punishment_ is an interesting, often novel, and very useful contribution to the philosophical literature on punishment. It is useful both in its clear and fair discussion of rival theories and approaches to punishment, and in its discussion of how Brooks' own "unified" theory of punishment would apply, and have practical implication, in a number of areas of criminal law. (Brooks considers capital punishment, juvenile offenders, domestic abuse, and sexual crimes.) Much legal philosophy, even philosophy of criminal law, is quite abstract, so it was useful and interesting to see Brooks apply his account to concrete and important problems, including some that are often overlooked by philosophers. This is perhaps especially likely to make the book attractive to students, but its of use to "professionals", too.

Three aspects of the book stuck out to me as particularly novel and interesting. First, Brooks' own account of punishment, his so-called "unified theory". This is distinct from traditional retributivist and deterrence approaches, and attempts to include aspects of both, as well as other desirable elements. I'll admit that I wasn't completely convinced that the approach worked, but it's an important new view that should be considered by people working in the field. The second novel element was the use of ideas drawn from the British Idealists. This once-dominant school of thought was largely forgotten for several decades, but is now making a come-back, with many important philosophers drawing on and making use of their work. Brooks is a leader in this area, and this book makes an important contribution to the claim for continuing relevance for the British Idealists. Finally, and most interestingly to me, Brooks develops a notion of "stakeholding" that he uses to explain how punishment theory fits into a larger political theory. As he says, "The idea of a the stakeholder society is the idea that each individual citizens believes he or she has some significant stake in the political community and its continuation." This idea, which is at least partially distinct from Brooks' "unified theory" of punishment, suggests an important way to think about the function and goal of punishment and the criminal law in general. I think it is likely to be highly fruitful and useful for people working in the field, whether they accept Brooks' larger view or not.

The book isn't perfect, and if it were possible on Amazon I'd give it 4.5 starts. Most of my complaints are minor. The discussion of Hart and Rawls is generally very good, though I' m not convinced it gives quite the right weight to some distinctions Hart makes. (I think almost no one gets this quite right, so it's not a big drawback here.) While the discussion of restorative justice was very interesting and moved the debate further, I wasn't convinced that the potential serious drawbacks of community involvement were taken as seriously as I would have liked them to be. But, these are relatively minor flaws in a book that is fairly short. It's a very well done work deserving of serious consideration by both students and punishment theory professionals.

An Indispensable Work on the Topic of Punishment
By V. Alan White
Thom Brooks is an Anglo-American philosopher of law and politics at Durham University in the United Kingdom who seeks in his work to exemplify the very best of academia both in scholarly excellence and practical impact. This book superbly embodies both. This monograph on the judicial concept of punishment is a model of spare and clear prose allied with carefully constructed and richly cited reasoning as well as a nuanced pronouncement on the topic that deserves careful study by those involved in constructing public policy and the judiciary itself. As someone involved with the law community (I serve on a district committee of the Wisconsin Office of Lawyer Regulation) I have recommended it to lawyers and bench judges with good feedback. It is an excellent book on the meaning of the applications of punishment, and deserves to be cast centrally in the ongoing debate of the concept of punishment and its function in society.

After a thorough introduction to the topic of the book, wherein Brooks wisely embraces a broad definition of punishment as "the response to crime," he deftly surveys the classic theories of punishment in scholarly and critical detail. Retributive, deterrent, rehabilitative, expressivist, and restorative theories are considered, along with one of his own, which he dubs "a unified theory of punishment," recently recognized by Research Councils UK as one of the 100 "Big Ideas" for the future. The rest of the book carefully compares and contrasts the various theories against some of the thorniest kinds of cases of punishment: capital punishment, juvenile offenders, domestic abuse, and sexual crimes (sexual assault on adults and children). This latter portion of the book is particularly relevant to discussions of punishment as a matter of public policy as it is bolstered by plentiful references to empirical data to support various points and criticisms. Certainly the backbone strength of this book is that while it is a detailed and sweeping philosophical examination of its topic, it always remains in touch with real-life data to constrain speculation.

Brooks' unified theory deserves special consideration by the reader. He is careful to distinguish it from hybrid views that attempt to combine various classic theories and defends it from the charge it is merely a pragmatic hodgepodge of different goals of punishment. Its inspiration is from diverse sources, including Hegel, the British Idealists, and particularly the American Law Institute's Model Penal Code of 1962 (and as revised later). What the unified theory attempts to do is provide a sorely-lacking theoretical support structure for the Model Code that complies closely with many of its recommendations. One important part of that theoretical structure is an emphasis on restorative justice, wherein all "stakeholders" in criminal justice--victims, offenders, and the public--attempt by a form of contractual agreement to restore damaged, disregarded, or obliterated individual rights, which Brooks places at the center of the concept of what constitutes criminal action. While restorative justice does have various difficulties (particularly heinous crimes, incorrigible offenders, victims unwilling to participate in the process, etc.), Brooks makes a good case that these can be overcome in many cases. He also makes a strong case (again backed with data) that sheerly in terms of economic costs an emphasis on restorative justice might steer many countries, particularly the US, away from the disastrous investment in prisons they are now making to house burgeoning numbers of long-term inmates. (Aside: my own state of Wisconsin presently spends more on prisons than on higher education, which is very alarming.)

Besides the obvious audience for this book--lawmakers, judges, lawyers and philosophers of law and students of such--another important group of readers I strongly recommend for this book is one I'm deeply involved in--philosophers and neuroscientists involved in action and free will theory. Too often discussions of human action in relation to moral and criminal activity are simply unaware of theories and positions on juridical responsibility and punishment beyond well-known ones like retributivism and deterrence. This excellent work will go a long way toward remedying that deficiency.

Punishment could be a good book, but it isn't
By Greg
Punishment could be a good book, but it isn't there yet. On the positive side, it does provide an accessible overview of philosophical theories of punishment. It also provides an insightful gloss on four case studies that are well worth considering. The discussion of stakeholders is very good, and sheds light on the problems that face policy-makers, and how policy can be irrational. In my view, this is the strongest aspect of the book. It is also a plus that Brooks is versed in both philosophy and public policy.

On the other hand, the level of argument is often rather glib. The discussion of retributivism is far too brief. Kant is mentioned almost parenthetically. Mill's critique is treated as a "common confusion" rather than a serious argument. Of course it is just an introduction but perhaps retribution deserves two chapters?

The chapter on Feinberg & Duff leaves the reader wondering why these views have attracted so much attention.

Brooks' "Unified Theory," is astoundingly vague and fails to express any genuine theory of punishment, at least as stated. The unifying aspect is that the word "rights" enters into any justification. Hence, punishment is justified when it is punitively proportionate to the rights violation (retribution), or when it deters future rights violations (deterrence), or when it is restorative of community rights (restorative justice), or rehabilitates the criminal into a rights-respecting citizen (rehabilitation theory). Is this a unified theory? Why not just accept value pluralism?


Nor is it at all clear that rights are always relevant. Brooks argues, contra Feinberg, that parking fines are a form of punishment, but he never explains how failing to deposit another dime in a timely manner violates anyone's rights. The theory implies that punishing victimless crime is unjust. I know some folks who would argue for this claim, but one would still think an argument in order, especially for mala prohibita crime.

Finally, the book is premised on the claim that all punishment is legal punishment. Talk of parents "punishing" a child, or whatnot, is loose speech or metaphor. Brooks warns that such cases can distort our intuitions about legal punishment. But even if this is true, one could distinguish between legal and nonlegal punishment. Further, there is often much we can learn from our nonlegal intuitions, especially concerning our desire to punish -- a topic not often touched on in this book. "Mom, will I be punished for this?" "No, dear, you will not be actually punished -- you'll only be `punished' in the metaphorical sense of being beaten and getting no dinner." This move might beg the question against retribution or Jean Hampton.

The Bachelor's Baby Promise, by Barbara McMahon

Jared Montgomery returns home to New Orleans to recuperate from an oil rig explosion in the middle east, with his best friend’s baby in tow. Hired to watch the baby while Jared recovers from his injuries, Jenny Stratford is thrilled to have a summer job in the Crescent City. In no time she falls in love with the baby. While Jared’s name is on the birth certificate, the baby isn’t his and he plans to put her up for adoption. He can’t take her with him to the oil fields, and doesn’t plan to settle down any time soon. Jenny thinks this would be a mistake and tries to talk Jared into raising the little girl in honor of his best friend. If he weren’t so set on returning to the middle east–a place totally unsuitable for an infant–would he consider it? The clash of values puts them on the opposite sides of the issue. Only when it comes time for Jared to relinquish the baby are all the loose ends tied up.

Heartwarming romance
By LindaNpines
A wonderful story of how a sweet baby brings together two people who previously had wildly different plans for their futures. The heat of a New Orleans summer and living under the same roof pushes them to test out a physical relationship, which both regret almost immediately. Jenny and Jared had been hurt in the past, providing solid reasons for keeping their distance initially. Only through one character’s major shift in thinking do they get to enjoy a happily every after.

Two damaged people find solace in each other
By Shauna S. Roberts
THE BACHELOR'S BABY PROMISE is a contemporary romance set in New Orleans' French Quarter about two badly damaged people.

Jared Montgomery is a geologist or engineer of some sort with a strong wanderlust. At the opening of the book, he is coming home to recuperate from extensive injuries received in an oil well explosion in the Middle East, an explosion that also killed his best friend. He is bringing his friend's illegitimate baby with him to place for adoption so it will have a good home in America. He needs a nanny for the baby in the meantime.

Jenny Stratford, a teacher, grew up an orphan in a children's home, never chosen for adoption and never knowing anything about her parents or other relatives. This experience left her so emotionally scarred that she has no ambitions, no hobbies, no interests of any kind except finding a husband and having babies. Making her situation even worse, she has just dumped her fianc� because he was taking advantage of her: he didn't love her; he only wanted someone to take care of his kids. So when Jenny hears of the nanny job in New Orleans, she takes it.

Although I felt very sorry for Jenny, I never got to like her. When she is with Jared, she nags him almost unceasingly. When she isn't with Jared, she obsessively replays earlier events of the book in her head over and over. She doesn't seem intelligent enough to have a college degree. Her conversational topics are limited and boring. She routinely parks illegally in a pedestrian-only zone (somehow without getting ticketed). Jared's apartment is one of the most expensive and sought-after places to live in the city, yet she never notices its woodwork, quirky layout, high ceilings, or interior courtyard. Our glorious cathedral is steps away, but she never goes in to see it. Ditto for our many art galleries, museums, and interesting restaurants within walking distance. She was blind to everything wonderful around her; she noticed only the baby, Jared, and a neighbor in the building.

Jared I did like. His enthusiasm for seeing the world makes him much more understandable a person than Jenny, and his honor makes him likable. He makes the best of a bad situation without grousing about it or pitying himself.

Under ordinary circumstances, I suspect the two would never be interested in each other. They have little in common and want completely different kinds of lives. But being forced together for weeks on end with an attractive member of the opposite sex makes them fall for each other against their own wishes.

The tension of the story rests in several questions. Will the baby have to grow up without any knowledge of her family as Jenny did? Will Jared's job in the Middle East still be exciting without his best friend to share it with? What will happen to Jared and Jenny's relationship when each returns to her/his job?

Different viewpoints believable and worth cheering about
By Emma Bain
What I found interesting in this book was that three people had very disparate goals (and, yes, I'm including the adorable baby Jamie) and that I found each viewpoint believable and worth cheering on. Which means that I was hoping the three would find common ground but having no faith that it could happen. Like the New Orleans setting, the book simmered with tension. I thought Mrs. Giraux a terrific foil for the situation with Jared and Jenny and a wonderful character, too. I'd recommend the book for those who like romance that deals with the push/pull issues of adventuring in exotic locations versus establishing roots and family in a small town.
