THIS BOOK IS AWESOME and I only wish I'd discovered Frank Miller sooner.

OK, I have been reading this book off-and-on for the last six weeks as I have been travelling...a long afternoon of Florida rain allowed me the time to put in a good read and finish it up. Anyway, this is really a fun book and it made me laugh out loud many times. Essentially, the book is a fictional account of the first 30 years of Jesus' life, which are largely undocumented in the Bible, through the eyes of Jesus' childhood friend named Biff. It's a great idea and Christopher Moore, the author, takes some light jabs at the some of the more extraordinary stories in the bible (i.e Jesus walking on water), but he always is respectful of the founding concepts of religion. After all, that is really what religion is all about after you scrape away all the ceremony, parables, and other crud away! This is the second Moore book I have read, and I find his stories to be comfortable and entertaining....hey, it's alright to laugh by yourself!

My grasp on science is so poor that many parts of this layperson's book were above me. That said, certain sections were extremely interesting.

I really loved the way she wrote this book. I thought it was a cleaver way to keep the reader from wanting to put it down. I read it in one sitting.

One of my favorites I have read a few times and will hopefully read a few times more.

This was a really fun mystery to read. It was interesting because the hero of the book is not a professional private eye, he is an upperclass English man who investigates as a hobby. A lot of the action is interspersed with breaks for tea or a nice lunch with his brother. It really cuts down on the suspense which I really liked because it let you focus on the details of the clues and the actions of the suspects without any great deal of emotional stress.

great book, got it from my aunt in colorado and read it on a plane. the guy next to me thought i was a smoke jumper! from montana to boston, kentucky to africca this book follows two smokejumpers and how their stories overlap, intersect and end. Beautiful poem about halfway through.
Jesse and Patrick Falconer are twins, estranged since they were 19. Patrick is now a surgeon and Jesse writes 'erotic thrillers.' Caitlyn Taylor, whose mother died of heart problems when she was 16 and never knew her father, is also a heart surgeon and Patrick's 'adoptive' little sister. ('Adoptive' is in quotes, because this is an agreement between them and not a legal-type adoption). Caitlyn's friend from college, Amanda Prentice is a psychiatrist at the hospital where Patrick and Caitlyn work as well. When Patrick gets sick and needs a marrow transplant, Caitlyn tracks Jesse down to convince him to be Patrick's donor. Each of these characters have a secret and horrific past that is revealed throughout the book, through excessive and sometimes confusing flashbacks. It's not always clear what information exactly is being revealed to the other characters who are present at the time of the flashback, and what is just revealed to the reader. Also, these characters have an inexplicable tendency to imagine and articulate what is about to happen, in a way that is not evidently clear that these are speculations, and not what is actually happening next. However, despite these things, the plot is excellent and the characters are intriguing, with fascinating back stories. Actually, I'm kind of sorry that there aren't two books, one with Patrick and Amanda as the focus, and one about Caitlyn and Jesse. My only other...not complaint, so much...maybe reservation, is that the interconnectedness of all the individuals in the book is a little too coincidental to be believed. It's just a little too convenient and pat. I have to say, though, I that I thoroughly enjoyed the book anyway. A couple parts even brought tears to my eyes. Stone is an imaginative and evocative writer, whose only fault may be being a little too...imaginative.
