    Compelling read but the ending was way off....I didn't like how it ended or rather how it didn't end.

    Quite possibly even worse than "The Corrections". Hate those books where you just want it to be over with, read too far to quit and it just drags on and on. What was I thinking?

  • Atlas Shrugged
    • Rated 4 stars

    seems like I enjoyed it more the first time around...30 years ago. While I enjoyed the story (and had forgotten much of it) I found myself wondering if it would ever, ever end....the book is way, way too long. Some editing could have made the story shorter and probably even more powerful. Also, if she were more succinct in the details, the message would be more clear, especially John Galt's speech at the end.

    This is the best "green" book I've come across and I've read many of them. Very detailed, very interesting with some great recipes for green cleaning solutions.

  • Twilight
    • Rated 2 stars

    I found this book to be a huge disappointment. The writing is mediocre at best. The relationship between the main characters is completely dysfunctional and obsessive. Bella's point of view gets tiring fast and Edward is just creepy. He's like an obsessed stalker.

    I expected much more based upon the hype.

    An enjoyable read, even though the first half of the book about the "perfect family" lingered on longer than necessary...the last half brings out the most intriguing part of the story.

    Interesting book but Grisham's talent is in writing Fiction.
