Narrative To Books Skink--No Surrender (Skink #7)

Carl Hiaasen serves up his unique brand of swamp justice in the New York Times bestseller Skink—No Surrender.
 
A National Book Award Longlist Selection
 
When your cousin goes missing under suspicious circumstances, who do you call? There’s only one man for the job: a half-crazed, half-feral, one-eyed ex-governor named Skink. Skink joins 14-year-old Richard on a breakneck chase across Florida, undaunted by lightning storms, poisonous snakes, flying bullets, and giant gators. There are a million places cousin Malley could be, a million unpleasant fates that might have befallen her, but one thing is certain: in the Florida swamp, justice is best served wild.

SUNSHINE STATE AWARD FINALIST!

Critique About Books Skink--No Surrender (Skink #7)

This is the second time I have read this book and I am as happy with it as I was the first time.If you have read any of the author's adult books, please don't worry that this is going to be inappropriate for young adults or teens. It is slapstick, endearing, a bit on the violent side and deals with situations that children must think about every day. Stalkers, running away from home etc.It ends on an HEA and it was a thrill to see Skink in one of these young adult novels.

I didn't love this one as much as his other titles aimed at younger readers. I guess maybe because this one is NOT for the same readers as Hoot and Flush and Scat and Chomp. At least not those readers the first time they are reading those books in late elementary school. That was me and my expectations going in to the book. I "wanted" one like the others and this is not that. It's a good book but it's not nearly the same. There is still some environmentalism in there, for sure. But that is very

This was an adorable book, if you can call the kidnapping of a teenage girl adorable!This is the tale of two cousins, born nine days apart, who live in Florida. The girl cousin runs off with a boy she's met in on the Internet. The boy cousin goes on a mission to return her home, recruiting an entirely odd accomplice along the way. The book is written in the first person, which normally I wouldn't read, but this book clipped along at a generous pace. There was no sex, only a little (appropriate,

I'm feeling philosophical today. Carl Hiassen has written books for kids and, now for the first time, young adults. What is the definitional difference? One would think it was the complexity, themes, maturity. In this case, I think it is nothing more than the ages of the protagonists. Teenager Richard joins forces with Hiaason's iconic character, Skink, to find his cousin Malley, who has disappeared. As she is flighty, nobody is quite sure whether she has run away or been kidnapped. Ex-governor

Old Fart enjoys YA book! This book is a must read for fans of Carl Hiaasen,even though is listed YA. SKINK is back!!!!

The first 50 pages of this book are not intriguing but once you are farther in it gets better. Most of Hiassans books are aimed at a younger audience and this one was said to be for teens. The story line and events are at a higher level but the diction is mostly the same. I would revoked this book to people older than 10 or 12 but don't read it before bead because some parts are pretty sketchy!

Love anytime we can get some Skink!!!! This was a very charming quick read, as Skink starts imparting his wisdom to a few teen millennials as he performs a rescue in the process. But for God's sake don't litter and remember fresh road-kill is still edible!! :-)
