Satire at its best The intertwining of Noah s adventures along with the political atmosphere of the white house has an intriguing pull that makes you just want to keep reading I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and found myself reading sections to my husband and friends It led to some great discussions Will definitely be reading by this author 184 I was offered a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review I had fun reading this book I was torn between a 3 and a 4 star rating I think a book that makes a statement about the government and its awful way of handling itself combined with terrorism.

Other than seeing unemployment rates up high Were they still even working at this point Did the number of house fires increase due to people trying to cook in their houses for the first time instead of going out for dinner Did they pull granny off her meds and send her on her merry way I think they could have been a short segment on random things like this Think Stephen King s the Stand where he spends a chapter telling of how people survive the illness only to die weird ways I really liked the segment that was like the short newspaper clips on of bad news in the US I would have enjoyed of this scattered in the book.

But I just didn t get that feeling at all Especially since the dialogue of the story is void of this type of talk The Story of Noah is interesting and felt real The people he meets have depth to them but you re not bogged down by the language of the text or descriptions This book makes a big statement and it feels real You can sense an impending doom to Noah the US that gets closer and closer as the story gets bizarre I wished the story had been longer because I had been really vested in Noah and seeing what the government was going to do next And I think the story could have been longer without it becoming overbearing or boring. Blinders keeperspak hockey I spent a lot of space with my 2 3 complainants but they are rather minor parts to the story as a whole Just because I have placement issues or would have wanted newspaper like stories is minor The story is strong and Rachel is a talent writer I ve read books that you can just tell the author has put everything into the story.

Violence broken economy all wrapped up in a nice coat of satire makes for an interesting read While I liked the overall writing style and the feel of the story there are some rough parts There are parts of the story where the flow is a little off I really liked the mix of Noah s story interchanging with parts about the government media what s going on else where segments but sometimes the placement seems off Noah is traveling by car and he briefly mentions how expensive gas is I would have preferred seeing a spike in the prices earlier on like near 20 bucks a gallon Rachel does mention a little later on that this how bad things are but I think the placement feels off already being informed in Noah s story the state of things on a national level seems almost redundant If this part was before then all we had to know was the total Noah had spent before the car stops working. Blinders Keepers booker What are people doing I mean actually doing We know inflation and the horrible change to the gold standard really messed things up I would have liked to know what people were doing especially because it ties it all together This Segment in the story really doesn t fit with anything else but I still really liked it However I think the part of the story that I really didn t get had to be all the pop culture references I really don t think all these references fit at all in this story Not only does it feel really dated as in in 5 years will the media still be so hyped up on Kim Kardashian but it also it just doesn t make sense Noah is from Nowhere Missouri who gets in a crowd of sorta hippies druggies anarchists etc None of the people would makes jokes and metaphors based on celebrities but the author is There are just so many of these little jokes that fall flat I think these jokes could have been purposeful and made a statement being satirical on the situation Maybe Rachel was trying to make a joke that when everything falls to utter crap we still think about our celebrities and it s not good This is nothing like that the structure of the story has a solid start and continues to grow I laughed aloud and I felt sorrow And lots of anger And the absurd story is funny but true It has a lovely flow of satire where your laughter makes you cringe. Philosophy Blinders keepers milford My rating I liked this book better than my other 3 star rated books such as On the Road by Jack Kerouac but it didn t captivate me like my 4 star rated book Jailbird by Kurt Vonnegut And incidentally this book is a nice mix of both stories This story falls in the middle of a 3.

Travel Blinders keeperstop Thank you to the author for letting me read your novel and my giving a honest opinion of the read 184 Although never explicitly stated Blinders Keepers is set in contemporary times call it the very near future It s satirical and definitely has its moments For example the sitting President of the US can string together clich s while saying nothing as well as any politician you ve ever seen Or the description of an odor as unlike anything Noah had ever encountered having never exhumed a person from a grave or stuck his head inside the bloated anus of a cow that had been rotting in the sun for several weeks However it also has some issues A fair number of errors that weren t caught in proofreading is one Mysterious happenings around the country and massive social changes occurring in a short amount of time that stretched my ability to suspend disbelief without explanation or justification for how they were happening Eventually I managed to just take it on faith and go with the story but it was a struggle to get there There were minor issues as well including stating that it was supposed to be impossible to determine your approximate location if you visited a website This is actually fairly trivial and has been for some time Or the protagonist knowing that something was fake with no way for him to have figured that out However by its nature I think satire gets leeway than most genres in straying from reality and by the last half of the book I was engrossed in Noah s adventure in spite of the flaws Originally written for Books and Pals book blog May have received a free review copy 184 Good Satire is like cleaning out your mind organizing your thoughts and then adding dance music and a laugh track to them It says what we think sees what we see and unlike the Emperor with his new clothes it tells thing like they are albeit just a little skewed with a whole lot of attitude John Rachel s BLINDERS KEEPERS is good satire told by a great storyteller who is an equal opportunity satirist Follow young Noah who is not the sharpest pencil in the box not the most ambitious guy out there but he is our main character and his misadventures are the things misunderstandings are made of Go ahead do it Misinformation assuming without the facts the list goes on as Noah becomes a hunted man on the run Was it a plethora of bad choices being at the wrong place at the wrong time was he set up to fall or did the government just need a puppet to manipulate Could he be the poster child for all that is not right in this country Noah s life has become a challenge to stay one step ahead of the monster hiding in the shadows His journey includes a myriad of quirky characters all on some sort of mission all able to manipulate our Noah bringing him over to their beliefs their causes and actually opening his eyes to the world around him Perhaps Noah will learn to be the manipulator the one to challenge our own beliefs when seeing the world and this country through his unique view As Noah crosses the miles his companions may change but the humor never ends as like an onion each layer of life in a land once revered as great now seems to become odorous and as tear causing as that poor onion. Book Blinders keeperstop John Rachel shows all of his cards plays his writing hand well and invites the world to see what he sees through the story he tells You will laugh for the joy of being entertained or to hold back the tears of this quirky yet jarring tale Brilliant story telling tongue in cheek writing and a character that begs to be met up close and personal Mr Rachel has a winner that is both sobering and amusing at the same time If you do not see yourself or your attitude at least once on these pages you need to look harder I received this copy from John Rachel in exchange for my honest review. Kindle Blinders keepers Publisher Literary Vagabond Books 2nd edition December 14 2015 Publication Date December 14 2015Genre Political Satire DystopianPrint Length 184 pagesAvailable from Barnes NobleFor Reviews More 184 This is my latest novel With humility and total objectivity I think it is the greatest book written since Franz Kafka started doing standup comedy I will be shocked if it doesn t replace the Bible as the best selling novel in history Of course it has fewer characters than the Bible and does not feature God who I wanted to include but couldn t because His lawyers refused to give me rights to His story But this should be a plus considering what an unwieldy mess the Holy Book is Talk about needing an editor This will be my last work of dark satire for a while I m trying to convince the board here that I am rehabilitated and should be given at least some grounds privileges This padded cell is really confining even with the leggos and the 5000 piece Andromeda Nebula puzzle I can t even get a signal with my iPhone 5 which probably doesn t matter since they have the battery stored in a safe with my wallet and my Justin Bieber fan club membership card. Book Blinders keepers So what s the inside scoop on Blinder Keepers For those doubters and naysayers out there here s the John Rachel challenge BUY this book You have nothing to lose Seriously If you do not like Blinders Keepers I m willing to man up here Just return the unread portion of the book and I ll return the unused portion of your money Can I be any fairer than that I think not 184 The dystopian picaresque novel is alive and well Blinders Keepers is a fugitive quest set in the near future in an America none of us would want In its futurist setting it aligns with 1984 Brave New World and The Handmaid s Tale all cautionary stories about how bad things might get if we don t wake up and smell the decaf. Book Blinders keepers rv Wrongly accused of perpetrating a terrorist act young protagonist Noah Tass embarks on a cross country journey first to get out of boring Dodge then to simply dodge john law In running from the Feds Noah burrows ever deeper into a new Underground which is populated with disaffected types whose agendas and socio economic circumstances all seem different But they are united in their opposition to the Man and the ominous encroachment of Big Government on what few freedoms the Little Guys still covet. Blinders Keepers booking So the book s antecedents here are the Beat Generation the Hippies the Yippies and the drop outs along with the radical and somewhat violent groups such as the Panthers the Weathermen and the domestic militias Ironically Noah s status as cult hero even though wrongly accused makes him new best friends with all such unhappy folks. Book Blinders keepers heart If your own personal or political unease craves company in a noirish narrative about how wrong things could go you ll find commiseration here As for me I d say the glass is half full but I suspect Mr Rachel would start his measurements at the top of the glass so high were his ideals and perhaps his patriotism before he got well disaffected 184
