Not to sound like some kind of un-hip "just doesn't get it" grandma type, but I think this story really is hamstrung by the format through which it's given to us. Deep down inside is a really compelling story of a family haunted by a bend in reality, and ripple effect that experience has on the people it's recounted to. But even still, I just can't get connected to the people I'm reading an exhaustive dissertation about. And it's not the footnotes that keep me from getting inside the story, it's the fact that it's written as a third (fourth?) person retelling of a story from an academic perspective, with quotes to serve the function of plot points. I always thought that writers lived by the code of "show, don't tell" when it came to getting their characters across, but Danielewski throws caution to the wind here and proceeds to tell the reader exactly how they are meant to feel about a character through a bunch of academic interpretation and footnotes. "You will feel THIS about character." Well la di da but I'd be more on board if I actually had something to back that statement up with. Sure, Tom lives up to his big teddy bear characterization (which is blatantly spelled out for us when he is introduced), but the character of Karen came off as a massive nonentity instead of the conflicted and codependent damsel I think the author was shooting for. The constant barrage of other people's opinions about characters I never managed to connect with made the Johnny Truant footnotes feel like a breath of fresh air. There was someone who actually developed as a character as I read more and more of his story. No one grows or takes form in the reader's mind in the main narrative. It's handed to us through "scholarly" text and to hell with progression. I'm being too harsh. This isn't a bad book. In fact, I'd say give it a go. You might be surprised, and this could be right up your alley. For me, the fact that the Navidson Record never let me in and kept me locked out of the character's journey just crippled the momentum. There were sections where I couldn't stop turning the page in anticipation, but the things I like about the book are just buried under uninteresting outsider perspective right to the end.
Not as fast moving as Dan Brown's other books.
This book could change your perspective on the concept of personal ownership. I read this some time ago, but the theme remains with me. Who decided that land and water and food belong to the "haves" while the "have nots" do without? Who made that rule and why do we accept it?

When I started reading No One Belongs Here More Than You I wasn't sure if I would like it. At first I didn't get behind her stories and wondered if there was a point to them in the first place or not. There was something about the book that didn't feel as pleasing as when I read other books. I eventually came to the conclusion that what put me off about it was the fact that these stories aren't little utopic pieces to vault us into merry and perfect spheres where everyone is beautiful, popular and successful. The main characters aren't always likable, they have weird opinions and do bewildering things. The stories aren't exciting, they aren't happy and satisfying and least of all do they end with a happy-ever-after. The thing that made this book feel wrong at the beginning was the fact that I was expecting a comfortable feel-good-story-collection that would lead me into an unrealistic environment where things are nice and easy. Miranda July describes situations, feelings and thoughts many people know and experience. Unspectacular, uncomfortable and often without the glorious Prince Charming or the magic change for the better. The protagonists of her stories are outsiders and loners, people who haven't accomplished to fit into life as Hollywood and society suggest we should. They aren't glamorous, impressive or exceptionally talented. They're like everyone else, they have problems, they hurt, they get disenchanted and defeated. And at the end of the day, things aren't good, but they're okay. I think that one of the reason why some people don't like this book is because it tells the truth in such a genuine and naked way. It displays life as it is, without the sugarcoat and sprinkles that try to hide the ugly and burnt parts. These people aren't heroes, they don't suggest that, through some wonder or deus ex machina, things suddenly become perfect. These books aren't an escape from the real world. They are more like reflections and 'factional reports'. It isn't the right reading matter for all those who seek to escape to escape reality. I for my part could find some comfort in this book, because to me the message is like a small, honst whisper of 'it's okay if you're not perfect, you're not alone with that.'.

It's a nice story and the author Tilly Bagshawe delivers almost everything expected out of Sidney Sheldon. The plot's worth reading.

Not really a book by Bruce, it's more of a current affairs type of deal than history. Good update.
