  “I like the story they have going but with the vocabulary they use and constantly switching from one point of view to the next is unbearable. If you have read intelligent and difficult books then you should try it out . But in till I become a rocket scientist i'm steering clear of this one . ”

  “The story is unique however Bradbury's use of words is what truly makes this book great. He also taps into a feeling or a theme which is conistent throughout the book.”

  “Really good. It's a difficult read, but if you let the words wash over you instead of trying to understand them, you'll get the meaning and be wowed by the wonderful language”

  “I am approx 50 pages into this book (which is about 25% of the book) and am still having a difficult time getting into it. I hope it gets more interesting.”
