Review:This "gothic goes northeast" tome is engagingly readable. There was enough foreshadowing to keep the reader intrigued, but not to the extent that the story was ruined. However, I did feel a certain "Harvest Home" vibe.... Read more

Review:The third and final book of the Three Body Problem series. I enjoyed it quite a bit, and it was a fitting end to the series. These books have been very different from the science fiction I'm used to reading, and I'm excited to read Ken Liu's upcoming collection of Chinese sci-fi, Invisible Planets. Read more

Review:A good well written story, but difficult subject matter. It takes place before & during wartime of World war 11. With all the horror & gory details. If you can handle that. It is a good read. Read more

Review:A book of what humanity should be. I started the book and read through in one sitting.
I've often wondered how so few people helped and so many hated and harmed my people during WW II.
As our world, again, is being polluted by antisemitism AND anti-Christianity, I wonder if the inaction and unwillingness to see what is happening in OUR world will create another holocaust. Read more

Review:This book is a very revealing and confusing discourse on sanity and the lack of it. It does question fundamentally "normal" consensus on what is madness.
It encourages individuality and the pursuit of dreams in a most original way. It speaks for the "mad person" but it addresses mad/normal people.
Thoroughly entertaining at the same time reaching deep and staying with the reader. Read more

Review:An incredible historical novel - I couldn't put it down! The historical backdrop of the Spanish Civil War and World War II, coupled with an exotic location, such as Morocco, then the suspense and a dab of romance made this quite an interesting read. Loved it! Read more

Review:If you love Russian Literature or have a passion for Dostoevsky, then this is a must. If not, not so much. The story is narrated and uneven. Characterization is excellent, but characters whom you thought might be central to the story, often become side-lined. Some of the scenes are ponderous and at first you might want to give up, but the personalities and story tighten and grow on you. Some scenes are riveting. Particularly interesting is Dostoevsky's use if his own experience of being condemne... Read more

Review:You know, "classics" often are . . . well . . . boring. It must be admitted. But the Three Musketeers is actually quite good.. I was surprised. When I was done I was sorry it was over. I will very likely - gasp - read it again someday, and undoubtedly will buy the mobi collection of Dumas' works for my Kindle Read more
