Misery

by Stephen King
- Rated 3 stars
“The book is much more graphic than what I recall from the movie. I'm pretty sure I grimaced more than once.”

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

by Mark Twain
- Rated 3 stars
“Very similar to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer but felt much, much longer; some of the "adventures" just dragged on too long. Twain has a wonderful way of transporting you back 150 years as if you are part of the story.”

The Caves of Steel

by Isaac Asimov
- Rated 4 stars
“Part of me is awed by Asimov's foresight, part of me loves watching a well written murder/mystery unravel, but most of me just wants to have a personal three-law robot.”

Easy Go

by John Lange, Michael Crichton
- Rated 3 stars
“This is the first book I've read where I'm not sure how the book ended, even after rereading the ending several times. In spite of that annoyance, my intrigue for Ancient Egypt, Pharaohs, and treasure hunts still provided for a very entertaining read of this early Crichton novel.”

The Life and Death of Stars

by Isaac Asimov
- Rated 3 stars
“Not just for juveniles. Lots of pictures for the kids; educational captions to answer the question: "What's that?!" And you too will learn something.”

Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption

by Stephen King
- Rated 4 stars
“Excellent. So artistically written, I believe I could have directed the movie. A short story that will take you just about as long to read as it would to watch the movie.”

Speaker for the Dead

by Orson Scott Card
- Rated 4 stars
“A very nice sequel to Ender's Game. Card's anti-Christianity came across as too negative at times and not knowing any Portuguese was a little annoying but overall, a great story that has me looking forward to the next book of the series.”

The Children of Húrin

by J. R. R. Tolkien, Christopher Tolkien
- Rated 4 stars
“The best work of Tolkien I've read after The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. If you're a Tolkien fan, I recommend this one.”

The Lost Symbol

by Dan Brown
- Rated 4 stars
“This one was a little long, and I'm not enthralled with Noetics but I'm very taken aback at how Dan Brown can pull these types of stories together; each book just as intriguing as the other in its own detailed and unique way.”
