The Lola Quartet

This completes my reading of all of Emily St. John Mandel's novels. Suffice to say: I'm a fan. This book, like her others, has it all: flowing prose, an engaging plot, and characters that are rich yet realistic.

Very very different from Station Eleven, the first Emily St. John Mandel book that I ever read. It lacked a little of that book's atmosphere, but was still totally un-put-downable. I found myself sneaking away to read parts of it on a weekend away with friends.

How far would you go for someone you love?The Lola Quartet: Jack, Daniel, Sasha and Gavin, four talented musicians at the end of their high school careers. On the dream-like night of their last concert, Gavin's girlfriend Anna disappears. Ten years later Gavin sees a photograph of a little girl who looks uncannily like him and who shares Anna's surname, and suddenly he finds himself catapulted back to a secretive past he didn't realise he'd left behind. But that photo has set off a cascade of dangerous consequences and, as one by one the members of the Lola Quartet are reunited, a terrifying story emerges: of innocent mistakes, of secrecy and of a life lived on the run. Filled with love, music and thwarted dreams, Emily St. John Mandel's The Lola Quartet is a thrilling novel about how the errors of the past can threaten the future.

3 - 3.5 | felt like she's still getting her footing in this one. definitely some magical bits but as a whole it lacked that all encompassing feeling when it came to the characters and world, which is what i love so much about her other work. makes me so curious about the singer's gun!
