A really, really fantastic read… I really enjoyed this book. Very funny and sweet.

What an excellent, brilliant novel (let alone first novel)... a really good read…

Got it off the iTunes Music Store to listen to during post-wisdom teeth removal… what a great book.. I’d read it ages ago, and Stanley Tucci does it justice in the audio format.

A decent read. Recommended if you’re geeky, it may be a bit too geeky for people.

Finished.. and on to the next one, after Mason & Dixon and a couple other books I’ve got sitting there.

An incredible novel from Thomas Pynchon… possibly one of my new favourite books.
Very, very funny.
Compared to Neal Stephenson’s Quicksilver? This kicks the living crap out of that book. In a book-ish kind of crap kicking way, obviously. It’s a lot funnier, less heavy handed, easier to stomach than Neal’s painful, painful, painful attempt to write a baroque novel.

Another great Kovacs novel from RKM

L liked it… and I really enjoyed it, too. It had a great ending, as well.
So long as you can stick through the painfully dogmatic religious explanations early on, it’s a great read.

Finished. L hated this book, I didn’t mind it. The writing was fine, but you had the feeling that Perrotta hated the characters he created. Just looked down on them.
It was only towards the end that you had the sense he’d opened up to them and started to understand them a little better… at least to enough to like them and write a little more interestingly about them.

I’ve had this book since I was… I don’t know, ten or so.
Re-reading it now.
