David McK (3816 KP) rated Ill Wind (Weather Warden, #1) in Books

Jan 30, 2019

The first book in Rachel Caine's Weather Warden series, this is probably best described as the novel equivalent of a road-movie, starting (as it does) with it's protaganist already on the run, and following her journey.

The book is pretty fast moving, with the reasons for Joanne Baldwin being on the run gradually revealed throughout. Think I will be reading some more of these!

Deep and touching

Remember the titans is a very deep, moving film about one towns love of football while coming to terms with the difficulties of integration in 70s America, the film doesn't shy too far away from this.
The efforts of the coaches to pull the whole team together are deeply felt and uplifting.
Movies like this show that love can trump hate.

Book Rating

I'll admit I was not impressed for the first tenth of this book and then it became excellent.
There are so many fascinating questions to be asked about what constitutes life in this book.
I kinda felt the plot twist coming. But the scenes with these two characters were chilling. It felt like a lump of something nasty in my stomach.
This book was lovely and moving.
