Click: One Novel, Ten Authors by David Almond

4.0

I initially picked this up because Nick Hornby is one of the ten writers who contributed to this unique "novel". However I found the other contributions equally intriguing. The premise was quite compelling. Maggie and Jason's grandfather Gee dies and leaves them each an unusual gift that inspires their lives. The remaining stories are all connected back to Gee (George Keane) who was a well known photojournalist who traveled many places and influenced many lives. I was loving it and getting ready to give it a 5 when I got to the last chapter which was written by Gregory Maguire. It was strangely futuristic and where I could see the point it just seemed like the only chapter that stuck out like a sore thumb! plus, I think it freaked me out.
