Have you ever been at a party and been cornered by that special breed of person who thinks they are the best read, most highly evolved intellect on the plant and their one goal in life is to convince you and anyone else who will listen of this (in their mind) indisputable fact. This book is the lite...
I really wanted to enjoy this book more, but ultimately I just wasn't feeling it. The SFnal element was handled so clunkily, it felt like a poorly-reinvented wheel. It's too bad, because I was initially impressed by the protagonist's intellectual characterization, which is a rare thing to see done w...
You know how you sometimes have one idea of what a book's going to be like, and then you start reading it, and it turns out to be totally different? Yeah, that was me and this book. Not that that was a bad thing at all, it just took me completely by surprise. I had expected a fun fantasy - not an al...
Occasionally, a book comes along that I really don't want to end. I mean really. I'll do everything to avoid the end. I'll read a chapter one week, wait another week, and then read another chapter. Or speed through 4-5 chapters on a Saturday night and then put the book away for two weeks. Maybe...

Her study of the book and its enigmatic author who disappeared immediately after writing it, leads her ri...
Although having a fairly interesting story line, this writer tries to be too clever. If i had wanted a crash course in 2nd and third year philosophy (which was painful enough) i would read my old notes.
