An amazing smart, funny, cerebral, heartbreaking book. I had to go buy my own copy because I was dog-earing so many pages with great lines.

I mean come on any book incorporating:

dogs
Doppler effect
Patagonia (Argentina)
cultish meteorologists
and a heartbreaking love story

Yeah. I loved it.

I liked the bird book “My Big Year” slightly better – it was a wackier world and a great window on a relentless pursuit of the “life list”. The writing seemed more forced in this compilation of the author’s 14’er attempts. Good for anyone interested in mountaineering; otherwise hearing about how hard it is to walk at altitude and how many storms climbers encounter on the 54 peaks could get kind of boring….liked the CO history and the characters encountered along the way.

Bad dialogue, Jennifer Anniston, and a self-indulgent horribly long and drawn out ending. Not even Owen Wilson could redeem this…

Hilarious…up there with Sideways! The story is even more fascinating for being based on the true facts. How many people know the story of California wine going head to head with the French? See it!

Tried. Unfortunately in the ten minutes before I fall asleep at night I just can’t make the effort to meet the author halfway. Maybe if I were stuck on a desert island…

Average documentary about an extraordinary visionary. The beginning and shots of Earthships in Taos, are spectacular. Reynolds is fascinating, even though the film seems to just stop a bit abruptly (seemingly like the filmmaker ran out of money without having time to sum things up.) Worth seeing if you’re into learning more about earthships.

Wow. Amazing. I didn’t see this one coming. Powerful and great: writing, acting, soundtrack, everything.

Not bad. But did they have to have so many shots of the band getting their hair and makeup done? It was distracting!

This is a complicated, wonderful book. One of the best I’ve read in a while.

An excellent, quietly beautiful, movie about friendship and opening up to life. Loved the way music was almost a character in the film, bringing people together in interesting ways. See it.
