Have More Fun, Read THE ROOK discussion

I think the central idea of: could someone successfully impersonate you based on a few small clues is endlessly fascinating (and also moderately frightening). Also, Dan O'Malley makes me laugh.

I love how there is something funny on every page, but there's also real character development and an emotional core to the story: will this woman, who was once so timid and easily pushed aside by everyone, finally be able to step into her shoes and be a kick-ass heroine? Go Myfanwy!

I think the fact that Myfanwy is AND is not the same person is awesome. I mean - there isn't actually another human in her body, just another personality after amnesia. And it's such a different personality.

That internal struggle reminded me a lot of THE HOST which I also loved.

I think it's fun because it's like being born as an adult. Also, Myfanwy has such a unique personality, but then finds these pieces of herself (administrative talents, feeling nauseous when seeing someone being hurt, etc.) in the "old" Thomas's personality.
