    The Turn of the Screw and Other Short Fiction

    Finished Turn of the Screw but will put off reading the remainder of the book for a while ...can't say I liked James' ponderous prose and the ending is so abrupt as to be completely unsatisfying... I am reminded of something Gene Siskel used to say ... Who are these people and why should I care...

    Visions of Infinity: The Great Mathematical Problems

    Interesting book ... a good read for understanding how math works. But I felt way over my head for the last quarter or so of the book ... I'm glad to be out of the deep end!

    London Falling

    Interesting premise ... Well written but drags a bit in parts

    The Sirens of Titan

    A fun read but a bit dated and sophomoric.

    The Particle at the End of the Universe

    Tough sledding in parts but a good and fun read ... I'll be reading more of Dr Carroll soon!

    My Name Is Red

    A good read ... ponderous in parts but overall quite interesting ... another reminder that much of our history was and continues to be shaped by events in Central Asia.
