I already have this book and it has 472 pages! So this might take me a while to read. Plus, this is also a series. (Just like the Series of unfortunate events with book after book telling the story)

I got sucked in after initially resisting this series because it's supposed to be for "young adults." I ended up finishing it in less than a day.

Too poetic for my taste but in the end I liked it.

'The experience, the experience. Haven't you learned?' Profane didn't have to think long. 'No,' he said, 'offhand I'd say I haven't learned a goddamn thing.'" Moral of the story: our entire trajectory, as animate humans, consists of nothing more than an inevitable progression from being animate to being inanimate. What? You don't find solace in this point? It makes you feel a bit uneasy, and, dare I say, paranoid? Welcome to Thomas Pynchon's world. "V." is my favorite Pynchon novel--quite the boast, as he is one of my very favorite writers. It holds this esteemed place for two main reasons: because in it he lays the thematic/philosophical foundations upon which all of his other texts are built, and I think that it is his most solidly written novel, at least in terms of "the novel" as a form, or structure, of writing. Yes, many of the themes and ideas are inchoate, and the text, at times, seems immature compared to his later works. But I think it lacks a lot of the over-calculation that tends to impede some of his other works. Pretentious? Perhaps, but I challenge you to write a novel like this at age 23. This novel flows (yeah, I said it!), challenges the reader, and draws from such disparate sources (hundreds of years of history, science, pop culture, high culture, art, etcetera). These aspects, among so many other in which Pynchon indulges, help to make this one of my most beloved books.
A typical Jodi Picoult book. Too wordy, too predictable, but current topic. This book deals with born again Christians, gay marriages, and gay parents. Now I don't have to read another Jodi Picoult book for a long time.
graphic, but engaging.

Fascinating book about the 5 women who've summited K2 (at press time one additional woman had made it to the top) and what their lives were like. Himalayan climbers are endlessly fascinating to me - I can't imagine making the choices they made, but nevertheless, I love reading about them. Maybe Boulder is rubbing off on me.

"True beauty is indeed the one thing incapable of answer the expectations of an over-romantic imagination."

OK. I probably should have read a different Updike novel first. I enjoyed reading his short fiction in college and should have perhaps tackled the Rabbit books first. The plot--broken family boy finds Islam, feels out of place in infidel America, is subtly manipulated by his teachers, becomes terrorist--is hackneyed and the writing often veers into self-parody. Updike's skewering of post-911 America is uninspired. I found myself not caring about any of the characters and actually hoping that the book would end tragically. The ending feels forced and rushed and stretches credulity.
