Rebecca Bernstein _lick_lick_esign — A fun fast paced novel about a detective that goes undercover after a woman is murdered. The woman looks exactly like the detective and has been living under a name that was one of the detective's undercover aliases. This is her second book. Her first book is Into the Woods, also a fun read.

Chee Reyes cheysserre1f55 — Ok, this is completely embarrassing, but I've read this entire series and I loved it! It's an indulgently trashy guilty pleasure and I highly recommend it. Perhaps good summer reading.

Tejasvi Kaler tejasvikalb0a4 — Diamond Age is a book with big ideas. The future, even twenty years after the book was written, is presented so clearly and so convincingly that it seems pre-ordained. The world-building is staggeringly constructed, and it's complemented by enough philosophy and musings to please the most introspective of readers. Many of the characters are interesting, and the way the story evolves is fascinating to watch. There are stories within stories within stories, and the fairy-tale elements particularily stand out. The story lacks an antagonist, however. In terms of bad-asses villians, it's nearly impossible to top Raven, of course. But without a clear enemy, the narractive feels unfocused much of the time. Stephenson's narration is furthermore all over the place--some scenes are described in the greatest detail, while others sum up the events of years with scaractly a mention. Some very prominent characters fall from the narrative entirely. The end, as others have mentioned, seems to have been inspired by Monty Python's The Holy Grail. The main POV, Nell, is easy to empathize with as a child, but she grows a decade older very quickly and is a different character. It's also difficult to overlook some of her Mary Sue attributes as well. Stephenson is a good writer, and it's puzzling to me that he or his editors didn't feel like this was a problem. Maybe there is a meta-structure to the story that escaped me. The flaws of plot and character are many and significant, but to me the setting and complex story-telling redeems it. This book is a classic of the genre and it ages surprisingly well.
