Benjamin Cook _of_ — This book to FOREVER to finish. Good writing and interesting story, but hard to slog through.

Alexander Bossert alexanderb7086 — I give this book 2 1/2 stars.. Nice message.. but I didn't always like his method of expressing it.

Camila Repetto _amichan — Yes. This novel could have benefited from stricter red ink on the manuscript pages from King's editor. &, furthermore, it would have benefited King--including the story--if he had written it as a novella instead of a novel. This is a great plot-line that has been written by King before but is enhanced with the "innocence lost"-theme coursing through the character of Charlie. In some ways, King has hidden within the story that there is no greater crime or horror than stealing away an individual's childhood. How is it "hidden"? Within the borderline stereotypical "fugitive plot" he buries the Charlie's lost childhood theme--allowing it to be pondered by the reader later. & this makes the novel one of King's unsung examples of him developing as a novelist. He is at least attempting to not be the hack he truly is. Sure, we've seen the "innocence lost" through psionics within King's earlier novels, Carrie & The Shining, but with his third stab at the story-line, even though it has its flaws, I believe Firestarter is the better novel of the three. I love stories involving psionics (hell, I have a goodreads shelf dedicated to it) & when I first read Firestarter as an excerpt in Omni magazine, I foamed at the mouth to get my hands on a copy of the novel. Being a kid in the fifth or sixth grade at the time, I didn't know who S.King was & nor did I care. He wasn't completely a household name yet but he was about a year or two away from it. Regardless, I didn't know the author's name but the title & the excerpt I had read was enough to sell me on it--Pyrokenesis! I'm so in! It wasn't until a year later--when it came out in paperback--that I got my hands on a copy. & I read. & read. & read. & found a thrill here. & a way cool action scene there. & a Native American hit man. & another thrill there. & dad who also has some psionics. & a clandestine science organization that has a cool name called "The Shop". & I read. & read. & then: Far out awesome Psionic Showdown with kid, Charlie, laying waste to everything around her--so cool! Now, with all the "& read" parts I repeatedly wrote in the above paragraph--these are the parts of the novel where King's editor should have gone red-ink-apocalypse on his typed manuscript. It just rambles. & rambles. Only to be punctuated with just barely interesting plot or character development. His best scenes are the ones involving heavy action with Charlie releasing her "curse" (or "gift", depending on how you want to look at it) upon her abusive oppressors. Her "family moments" seem stereotypical & have the feeling of a Cronenberg Scanners scene that was left on the cutting room floor. Nevertheless, when King gets the action rolling, he's back into a groove that makes the story--pardon the pun--burn. So with all this negativity towards the book, where does the 4-star rating come from? It comes from being a fan a novels involving psionics--there aren't enough of them. & the ones that do exist are not very good ones. Firestarter is one of the better ones--possessing a great concept that if developed properly could have spawned a series surrounding The Shop & the victims of their ultra-secret experiments. This possible series would have been far more interesting than that Dark Tower crap. With some heavy editing--or a massive re-write if he still wanted it to be a novel--King's Firestarter could've been a hell of a lot better than it is. I'm a total fan of the concept & the execution wasn't completely successful, but it is a stand out novel about psionics.

Darlene Motley _armic_isions — One of my "great book" judgement markers is if I think about it when I'm not reading it. I could not stop thinking about and wondering how this book could possibly work out- and I loved every page. I've heard good things about Courtney Milan, and this book really did live up to the hype. She artfully crafted not only the story, but each character as well. She had me emotionally invested in these fictional characters. My heart would break for them, then just as quickly I'd smile... and she put me through a full roller coaster ride of emotion reading this sweet book. It's a simple story really, a man is bent on destroying a family and taking everything from them... and then he meets and falls in love with a woman (the sister of said family, posing as nurse). Well it's not THAT simple as we have a number of brothers to contend with, not to mention how these two can possibly find happily ever after without one of them turning their back on their family... I liked that Margaret (female lead) starts out as a "poor me, I've had my status ripped away" wallflower, and as time goes on she realizes her own strength, as well as comes to appreciate that rank has nothing to do with value as a person or who is worth her time. Almost her complete opposite, is Ash (aka hero of story). A unique character for one of these historical romances - he manages to be strong, smart, and yet also has some insecurities and things that haunt him as well. His relationship with his brothers is definitely a highlight of this book. I was surprised a number of times, though the ultimate outcome is exactly as you'd expect from a romance novel the journey in getting there was quite a treat.

Agustin Rovediello rovediello — I don't spend a lot of time reading novels but this is a MUST!

Carlos M _ebusk — Lahiri definitely deserved that Pulitzer! Each story brought me into the minds and hearts of the characters, and gave me a new understanding of the immigrant experience- the emotional, cultural and social hardships one faces as a stranger in a strange land.

Federica Carta federicacarta — Picking up The Bonfire of the Vanities is a daunting prospect. It's huge. It has a reputation that preceeds it. I expected something weighty, preposterous and tough to get through. In reality, it was one of the easiest books I've ever read. Because at the heart of the satirising of late 1980s New York, the politics of a divided city, and the stupendous wage packages of Sherman McCoy is a damn good story. It's a detective story, but not in the traditional sense, as we know from the start Whodunnit. What we could never predict is the role of the press and the movers and shakers in society who spin together to bring Sherman McCoy, Master of the Universe, down from his high perch. It's a tough book in the sense that the good guys (who are few and far between) very rarely inherit the earth. But it's captivating from the very start, and often hilarious. It's a while since I've enjoyed something this much in fact. Five stars! Whoo! It's been a while...
