  • Foucault's Pendulum
    • Rated 2 stars

    “The base for the reasons behind what's going on in "The DaVinci Code" it seems, way too familiar but written differently and many years before Dan Brown's book.”

  • Close Calls with Nonsense: Reading New Poetry
    • Rated 2 stars

    “Just another book picking apart poets and their work, a "guideline" so to speak but quite a lot of essays! Not very exciting to read.”

  • Gap Creek: The Story of a Marriage
    • Rated 3 stars

    “I wonder if this book had been written by a woman instead of a man would it have been so well received as when women write stuff like this sometimes reviews say it is stereotyped, etc. I liked this book well enough but kept thinking how much can one woman (the main character) take? I did enjoy the ending; after all that struggle finally a light at the end of the tunnel (being vague here for anyone who hasn't finished reading it). I prefer mysteries so this isn't what I usually read but it certainly isn't the worst thing I've ever read. If you like this one, check out books by John Ehle.”

  • Stalin's Ghost
    • Rated 3 stars

    “I really liked "Gorky Park" so that's why I picked this one up to read. I found parts of it confusing. There was a lot of stuff in the book that didn't seem necessary and the writing didn't flow well to me. I was disappointed it wasn't better, but I'm still going to check out some of Smith's other books I haven't read. ”

  • The Accidental
    • Rated 1 stars

    “A magazine review of this book got my interest but after starting to read it I found I just didn't like the way it was written, the jumping around from person to person and the short jolting sentences. I felt like I was reading a prose poem or experimental verse or even a verse novel and if that's what it had been that would've been okay (as a poet I like to read unusual poetry) but it isn't a poetry book. I just gave up and decided to try something else. My reading hours are limited so why read something I don't like?”
