Callie Rose Hadley is the daughter of an alpha and a Zero. Some people like it not too often, but it is a bright child, with the Neighbor's son Toby has many adventures. But why her mother Persephone sometimes behaves strange? What makes this so sad and teaches them to always maintain a certain distance to her daughter? Callie is suspended in disbelief. Sometimes she writes to her dad, who was the gardener of her mother, letters. You would like to know so much more about him, but her mother is silent on this issue and their grandmothers avoid Callie from the man Callum Ryan McGregor tell. Why is that Callie is experienced within a few years, and what she finds will change her life.
opinion:
In contrast to "heaven and hell" and "Ashes and Embers" is "Checkmate" is not primarily from the perspective of two characters says, but by several. On the one hand, we have Callie and her mother, Persephone, on the other grandmothers Jasmine, Meggie and the opaque uncle Jonathan. There
show different levels of time, the Callies childhood and early youth. You experience first hand, as a loving, curious child who finds the good in each is to a girl who sees little hope for themselves. Sephy, who has vowed years ago never to hurt her daughter maintains, despite her love for Callie, a certain distance to it. Much too big fear is about to Callie Rose could find that out, what did her father and the circumstances under which she was conceived. The young mother has little contact, only her old musician friend Sonny, who is still in love with her, holding her.
In search of answers to Callie approaches her uncle Jonathan, however, has plans for her, which she suspects is not in the least bit. Everyone can see that Callie Rose is, to their doom to run - just how do you get them to listen to her mother Sephy when it is finally ready after years of talking about Callum? How do you teach a young girl to face the truth about a father who himself knew only too much that he bad Acts committed?
structure and language:
First I had to get used to the different time lines in checkmate. Callies childhood and the present are backlit, and there are even some further brief flashbacks. But each scene, each chapter in this book is important. Helps that it sympathizes with the characters and fever.
The language is like in the other books to understand, but does not appear smooth or unloving. Focus is again on the characters and their inner life, which is interwoven with the external events together into an exciting story.
characters:
Sephy is On the one hand, to become a strong woman, at the same time she manages not to open up to other people. Not her mother Jasmine, who is part become quite similar, or Callum's mother Meggie, from which she is still on guard, not even her own daughter over. A single letter has Sephy - which was once so full of hope - to put to doubt the love of Callum and that it swept away the ground under their feet.
hope donor is as Sonny, the Sephy not give up even after years and brings them to think about. Sephy begins to believe that she is adorable and the fact that they also can love someone other than Callum.
also sees it as always Callie struggling more with their uncertainty and their heritage. Why do they learn only bits and pieces about her father, why do their classmates hints that she does not understand? For Callies's most important but also difficult to find their own identity. At school she is not harassed as much as Callum and Sephy then, but she realizes that there is a secret that all seek to hide from her.
uses is exactly what Jonathan, who is still freezing cold out for themselves, to practice his goal of revenge Sephy to come closer. Latest in this book it becomes clear that it hardly even rescue is for Jonathan. This is particularly sad when the little stories and the following memories of Meggie, who could learn even a completely different side of her son.
lies and truth mixed in this story and make it Callie is not easy to understand what really happened at that time. In the end, only a desperate action grandmother of Jasmine a little light and hope in the Darkness he family Hadley McGregor.
Conclusion:
checkmate me has actually been falling even better than its predecessor "ash and embers." It was incredibly upsetting and sad to follow Callie Rose and Sephy. These two young women who have so little hope, and on to the few that they remained so strong they can hold. They would only be honest with each other in order to avert the catastrophe that begins to take shape in checkmate, can. Understand both can still incredibly good, as Jasmine and Meggie. Only Jonathan the story makes it really hard. But he also had a few moments when he was sad and I was sad.
has re Malorie Blackman made it an emotional, sad but at the same time for thought-provoking and hopeful story to write. Whenever I had time, I put my nose full of curiosity in this book and read it banned.
