Ahmed Kamal ahmedkamal72f0 — Blah. 332 pages of descriptions and ponderings and suppositions. Really a disappointment. The misleading title could be presented in court as false advertisement.

Klaudija Antolic _he_ournalist — This was a cute retelling of Beauty and the Beast. I read it mostly because of the movie that is coming out in about a week, but I also love the story of Beauty and the Beast. It's my favorite fairy tale. This modern retelling suffers from uneven pacing from time to time (there were moments when I wished the tale would hurry up and other times when it seems to be alright). If you are a fan of happy endings, then this is a very quick and enjoyable read.

Niek Van niekvanderlaak — 1st read March 2009 2nd read January 2016...just as good!

Erielton Rangel erieltonrangel — Full of awesome. In the pantheon of science fiction, Dune is Zeus. This book incinerates lesser novels with thunderbolts of genius. Frank Herbert was inspired by a newspaper article he wrote on sand dunes in Oregon (I think... don't quote me on it). From such a prosaic source, Herbert spun out an epic that crushes Lord of the Rings. That creaky, archaic series cannot withstand the narrative power of Dune. I've put off reading the rest of Chronicles for too long.

Tamanna Jethi tamannajethi — Just okay for me...

Art Garza artgarza — The original title when published in 1955 was The Body Snatchers but the 1956 film forever changed the name in the mind of popular culture to Invasion of the Body Snatchers. The version of I read (for a BookCrossing bookray) was retooled in the 1978 and flushed out from a novella to a full length novel and has the movie title. It also has the ugliest cover art for a science fiction cover I've seen in a long time (but Sean thought the missing noses and mouths were funny). This updated version also brings the story forward to the mid 1970s (noted mostly in the models of cars described in the books). These little changed details are minor annoyances in an otherwise fascinating tale of domino effect style invasion that ultimately ends in total ecologic destruction. The book uses science fiction and horror elements to question broader themes of culture, immigration and xenophobia. Best of all, the story takes place in the Bay Area (Mill Valley and Marin mostly). Often times when the Bay Area is used as a setting, geographical areas get moved around or mushed together either for plot reasons or just laziness. Thankfully Sausalito this time is on the correct side of the Golden Gate bridge. This added realism made the story all the more enjoyable (and scary). While the movie versions are fun, the book is better. It is more coherent and the characters are more believable.

Fi Me _iona_lma — Okay, this is not a good book. It is not even a "good" book. Howard Hunt spent much of his life writing pulp thrillers, and it shows. The rest of his time, however, was spent in the OSS, the CIA, and Nixon's plumbers. He was a lifelong cold-warrior and this autobiography--Bay of Pigs, pre-Mao China, Guatemala, Watergate, Kennedy assassination, G. Gordon Liddy, William F. Buckley--may as well have been subtitled "disasters in American foreign (and domestic) policy." (I am not a Kennedy assassination enthusiast, but if you are, you will no doubt wish to get all Talmudic on its ass.) Look, I'm not saying everything in this book is true. Presumably most of it is not, but that is, of course, part of the fun. The other, perhaps larger part is Hunt himself. He does his sanctimonious, self-aggrandizing, faux modest best to paint himself the tragic hero, but as you might expect from a Watergate burglar, he's not half as clever as he thinks. Shades of the real Hunt, his tunnel-vision and contempt for democracy, appear throughout.

I Zxf iamzxf61 — Favorite Chandler novel. It's so addicting and I love the writing style. It's sort of urban poetry. There's also an element of romance to it.
