Easy read. He writes like he talks, and if you like him or his show, you should like this. Very honest.

Good book. It took a little time to get used to the jumping between different characters and their thoughts but once that was situated the book was hard to put down. I will definitely look into more of her books.

Awesome book!!
I got so into this book that I gave myself a major sunburn lying out reading, unaware of how hot it was or how red I was becoming! The narrator, a young autistic boy, is a really interesting perspective to read from. I was fascinated to see how his mind worked and found myself laughing outloud at the quirks of the young boy.
You can feel the weakness of the translation, and three chapters are missing, but Murakami perseveres. This novel is beautiful and confounding.

When starting this one, I became immediately aware that I'd missed a few in the series (hmmm...isn't Benton dead?), but was not overly worried as it's just so nice to be able to spend some time with Dr. Scarpetta again. And this is a long one--weighing in at close to 600 pages, but I simply couldn't put it down and made my way through it in two evenings. I think other fans of the genre will find it equally compelling reading. In retrospect, this may well be the most complete and well-written in the Kay Scarpetta series to date. The exchange during which Kay is in a lab of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner's (OCME) DNA Building carrying on a speakerphone conversation with Dr. Geffner regarding midwestern Gray Wolf fur vs. dog fur and the finer points of symbolism associated with the former in ritual magic while, simultaneously on the other side of the room, Lucy and Marino are tracking a muder victim's last movements via a unit she wore that recorded her vital signs and GPS locations is some of the tightest, fast-paced writing I've read in a long while. Heck, I felt my heartrate increasing as we bounced back and forth between the victim's last minutes and the painstaking range of analyses with which breaks in such cases are generated. And the fact that Kay refused to interrupt Dr. Geffner to give her full attention to Lucy and Marino was pure brilliance--is so quintessentially Dr. Scarpetta. That is, you don't interrupt the experts who make time for you out of their intensely jam-packed days simply because a hot lead develops simultaneously. Such would be as inappropriate as leaving one's cell phone sitting on the table during dinner. Kay's determination to observe manners in the face of the horrors she witnesses daily is one of the many things that makes her so endearing--okay, that and her extreme competence and determination. The Scarpetta Factor, named for a tagline used to tease viewers into watching a CNN program on which Kay appears as a forensic consultant, is Patricia Cornwell at the top of her game--in terms of the forensic and police procedural parts, in indicting cable news stations as well as the FBI in terms of how they allow out-of-control people the latitude to manipulate circumstances and ruin other peoples' lives while never acknowledging their own institutional culpability. I also very much appreciated the fact that the interpersonal tensions created between Kay and Lucy, Lucy and Berger, between Benton and Marino, etc. are not tidily resolved by book's end. Kay continues to have remarkable insight into her own circumstances and the sometimes fragile nature of what constitutes "normalcy" in her anything-but-normal existence. Altogether, this was a very fine read.

I am an Eastern European myself and I felt the truth of Kundera's observations on the sad lives of exiles. One neither belongs to the old country any more, nor to the new one. I've read half a dozen of Kundera's books and am convinced he's one of the best novelists writing today.

Like all survey books, some chapters are better than others.

My favorite book. Tragedy, romance, history, suspense, and a great ending.
i cried my entire way through this book, racking sobs even. i can't decide if it's because i know people that have battled addiction and it struck a cord or because the story was that heart-wrenching, but beware - it's very depressing. i do believe it should be required reading, however, just like requiem for a dream should be required viewing (with certain parts edited, of course), in any substance abuse class offered to students of all ages. and no, i don't care that it's not really a memoir. i didn't buy the book because it was a true story, i bought it because it sounded interesting.
