Journal Entry 1 by Nu-Knees from Knaresborough, North Yorkshire United Kingdom on Monday, November 19, 2012
It's a while since I've read this so I can't write a detailed review at this stage but the notes I wrote in my reading journal at the time read:
"Decidedly CREEPY!
Wouldn't make a lot of sense if you weren't familiar with the Internet, the language of blogs etc - living a virtual life - lies versus reality in cyberspace.
A much over-heralded twist.
Rather sad - the life of the lonely."
I remember it as very weird with an unreliable narrative voice, that you couldn't believe a word he wrote!
Although I originally put this on my keeper shelves, it's very unlikely that I'll ever reread it so I'm registering it now to make it available for a new reader.
Amazon Editorial Review: " 'Once there was a widow with three sons, and their names were Black, Brown and Blue. Black was the eldest; moody and aggressive. Brown was the middle child; timid and dull. But Blue was his mother's favourite. And he was a murderer.' Blueeyed boy is the brilliant new novel from Joanne Harris."

Thanks for this, it arrived yesterday and is by a favourite author of mine (although the write -up makes me think its decidedly different from the other stuff I've read). Many thanks & Happy Christmas
