The Tilted World is excellent. I think the writing and the story are better than that of The Goldfinch, although saying so doesn't diminish my thoughts about The Goldfinch's excellence - I just think The Tilted World was done better - there was no superfluity in The Tilted World; it's compact but packs a punch.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-8469428808190251402013-12-08T16:34:57.606-06:002013-12-08T16:34:57.606-06:00Wow a couple of chunksters in your October reading...Wow a couple of chunksters in your October readings.

It actually is a surprisingly quick read, though, once you get into it.

The Tilted World is the one I'd most highly recommend but I think you might enjoy Perfect Ruin and The Radleys.
