How 'Casting Off' went for me. I am loving this. LOVING!!!! My biggest issue is that I'm listening to this while walking so therefore I'm doing all the above in public. Plus side to this is that people are actively avoiding my space while I walk so, SCORE!! Minnie Goode the narrator is just fucking ...

These stories just get better and better and deeper and richer with each installment. Can't wait to get the 4th and 5th. The twists have been elusive until they are right on top of me or in my rear view mirror. Nice to be surprised (even if I'm usually depressed after)!

Excellent third installment in the series. There is really no point in reading this book (or review) if you haven't read the first two stories.Juliette has taken over as Sheriff, and Bernard from IT has taken over as mayor. Juliette, in investigating the previous mayor and sheriff's deaths, uncove...

Survived book three of Wool. The first to leave me with a feeling of Hell Yeah! It was definitely worth the suffering.

Finally more insight and background to the Silo...I couldn't stop reading, wanting to find out what was about to happen next, what Jules would do next and what might happen with her - the new information about what's going on behind the scenes of the silo, IT, and the cleaning was gripping!

I am really getting into it, now. I find the Romeo and Juliet juxtapositions charming. The narrative feels very well thought out and self-consistent. It may not have much flash, but how many classics need it?Update: I'm really getting into Bernard with this re-read. The mystery aspects feel a lot...

Well, the third installment is easy to read, and easy to anticipate, easy to guess what's gonna happen. That's for the reader's benefit, one can say 'I knew it". But I suppose there's still more than that.3,5 stars rounded up.

I'll review the series at book #5. To this installment I say, Okay, "pulling the wool over their eyes" does indeed appear to be the active wool-related image. And I don't buy the narrative of why certain people have wound up in their jobs. Not in this society. But more of that, perhaps, at #5.

-I have a love/hate relationship with the shortness of the stories in this series. Short stories are easier to read but they’re almost too short.-The pacing was a bit off for me in this book. The beginning of the book was slow. Of course towards the end everything starts to get more exciting. Once a...
