It surprised me in that it was not a paperback-sized novel, it's a little larger, about the size of a Reader's Digest magazine. Which, for my ancient old eyes, its a plus in that the print is larger (wonder if they sent me the senior edition?

).

Anyway, I got about half-way through the book last evening...it was impossible to put down. I intend to finish it tonight.

I put a spoiler alert on this, but I'm really not going to say much until others have read it. The author does a good job with Faith's character, and you get a lot of insight into why she was so wild and tough.

And for those who haven't read the dedication to Eliza, I will say only "read it and you will smile and agree"!

Thanks for the info, I need to find the book!

ThisYearsGuy · 08-01-2006, 02:27 PM

It came! Yeay! But I'm half way through a Dsicworld book so its taunting me lol. The dedication is so great! :D

(And yes it is an unusual, slightly large size lol).

**andrew r** · 08-01-2006, 02:58 PM

Is it bigger than a usual paperback you mean?

Well, normal paperbacks are about 4 inches wide and 7 inches high.

"Go Ask Malice" is bit bigger, measuring 5-1/2 inches wide by 8-1/4 high
(for my metric friends, 14 cm X 21 cm).

Again a spoiler alert, but only to encourage readers to look for the origins of some of Faith's more famous quotations to be revealed. I'll give one example,
"Five by five", and there are at least three more in the text. I'll let you readers enjoy the surprise I found in the meaning, and all the quotes will give you more insight on Faith's loneliness and dark history.

I hope I haven't said too much....I read the second half of the book starting at 9 PM on Saturday, and it was 2 AM before I could put it down. I was fascinated by the narrative.

ok i need that book now ! (and why the better ones never come to France.. arf.) I'm going to order it !

**andrew r** · 08-02-2006, 02:49 PM

Thanks for the sixe info. That's a bigger paperback than usual.

08-04-2006, 05:21 PM

I found the book by accident cuz i wasnt even looking for it but anyway.
I was surprised to see it here i holland but since i bought it in the "American Bookstore" it actually makes sense. :P. I ended up reading the first pages in the store when i thought that maybe i should buy it. So i did

I've read the book in two days and i loved it. And i wasnt even planing to buy it lol.

**andrew r** · 08-05-2006, 04:20 PM

Glad you did get by the sounds of it.

ThisYearsGuy · 08-08-2006, 01:42 PM

Yo! I read it over 2 days and its actually pretty good. It doesn't match what I expected but in some places its better lol. I was amazed to see a character called Tommy cos in the fanfic I started (and din't finish lol) Faith had a boyfriend called Tommy - obviously a name she conjures up lol..

Loved all the in-references although some felt a bit obviously put in for good measure lol. Generally very pleased - just one element of personality they imbued her with that I was not keen on but I'll wait til all read it to say lol.

Keri · 08-08-2006, 01:52 PM

Funny you mention about the name, cos I can't get over the fact that the whole damn book is littered with names of people I know from various Eliza message boards! Very spooky...

lovely_disaster · 08-17-2006, 02:23 PM

i just felt like posting this up, even though a million of you already have this mag (i just got it :D)

Keri · 08-18-2006, 05:01 AM
