| 1. | It was interesting. Not my favourite of his, but it'll do. |
| 2. | This is my favorite book by Steinbeck. I had to read "The Pearl" in 7th grade, and predjudiced me against him as a writer [I was way too sensitive in 7th grade to read "The Pearl"]. However, this book has it's deep points, but light and humorous points as well. It made me happy to know that somone who can see the beautifully dirty parts of humanity can still see the happy and the joyful part of it too. |
| 3. | I loved it. |
| 4. | I'm about halfway through, and so far it fucking rocks. |
| 5. | What more can I say? It's a wonderful book and Douglas Coupland is an absolute genius. What I like the most about it is that in between the apparent coldness of technology and the modern world you can find a huge amount of humanity and pure feelings in the story. I find the personal, spiritual, professional and emotional growth of the characters very appealing and inspiring. Apart from that, it's a very interesting book that deals with life in the mega cultures of our society, the corporate life, relationships, friendship, the work life, new projects and such; plus, it is full of enchanting cultural, technologic, artistic and mediatic references that are delectable for someone so interested in humanity and society and popular culture like me. |
| 6. | Well ive just travelled around Wales, followed by Ireland, followed by Scotland with her, and am now in St Ives, so it's pretty exhausting! |
| 7. | The beginning when faster than the end. |
| 8. | I like her writing style very much so enjoyed it. I like the way she switches between characters to tell the story. |
| 9. | I really enjoyed it, although it was a bit like a slippery bar of soap. Everytime I went to grab the storyline it slipped away from me. Vague, beautiful and intriguing. |
| 10. | iffy. |
| 11. | I like it, but when I'm home I'm knitting and watching TV to prepare for the craft show this Saturday. |
| 12. | Seriously weird and twisted but a great take on modern life and morals. Very funny. |
| 13. | LOVED IT cuz I'm a nerd |
| 14. | Still fun, I was reading it aloud to my youngest two children, and they were very excited. I loved to watch that. |
| 15. | It was great and I am convinced the musical will suck donkey balls because it will far too fluttery. Not far enough into Son of a Witch to ellaborate |
| 16. | It was aight. There was a lot of people recommending it, and I didn't know what to expect, but it was different than I expected. |
| 17. | Da VInchi Code - How did that get so famous and big? Angels and Deamons was better. Going Postal, mmmm... ok, but not as good as Pratchetts first Discworld stuff. |
| 18. | It was really good, so good it's been lent out several times since. |
| 19. | The Peters book was great reading candy about finding the remains of King Arthur. The book on Islam was a useful introduction into the intended history and philosophy but left me wanting more. |
| 20. | 4th in a series. It was a good read. |
| 21. | Fucking genius |
| 22. | I love the way Salinger's characters interact with children. It's just the way I handle them. I throw out some amusing and ridiculous statement with a straight face and wait for their reaction. "You're five? So are you in high-school now?... Your cat's name is Sam? I had a unicorn named Sam but he flew away." Am I messing with their heads? Maybe, but the smart ones will laugh and be your best friend. |
| 23. | It was one of the worst books I've read on the subject. Usually they're interesting with a bit of anecdotal commentary, but the author was a pompous bastard who couldn't help but interject his two cents continuously. I've got enough pennies to fill a fountain. |
| 24. | Lawyer stuff. Good stuff. |
| 25. | It's not the sort of book I normally read. It stretches reality quite a bit, and, although it passed the time, I wasn't impressed by the plot. |
| 26. | the book? i guess i already answered that. the articles are more interesting. |
| 27. | ^^ see above. |
| 28. | It was hilarious and touching all at once. Plus each chapter is like a short story so it is easy to pick it up and put it down without really losing your place in the story. |
| 29. | It was alright. Very much like a romance novel. Exotic, romantic, star-crossed lovers and slavery. |
| 30. | textbooks are boring. lemony snicket is cool, but having seen the movie it feels a bit slow. gotta get past the first three soon as we can. |
