I read The girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played With Fire and The girl who kicked the hornets nest by Stieg Larsson and thought they were OK. What interested me was the author more than the books themselves; did you know that the author died back in 2004 and the books were [...]

I loved Then We Came to the End by Joshua Ferris. The whole book is written in the plural first person. This is how we are introduced to the characters: We were fractious and overpaid. Our mornings lacked promise. At least those of us who smoked had something to look forward to at ten-fifteen. Most [...]

I have read over 13 books in the past months and have not reviewed them. BAD 7aki. I have been partly busy, partly unmotivated and partly lazy . I like to review my books so I can keep a history of what I read and also an account of what I thought of the book. [...]

The non fiction book “What the Dog Saw” by Malcolm Gladwell is a fun book to read. The book contains 19 essays that Malcolm wrote in the New Yorker spanning over 8 years I think which makes it an easy read for people with a short attention span or people who don’t have hte time [...]

I like everything Malcolm Gladwell writes . I have read The Tipping Point and Blink and enjoyed them immensely so when I saw this book with my buddy Bob I grabbed it right away. The book talks about how people become successful and how much effort a person needs to put into something to become [...]

What shocked me the most about the book “The Glass Castle” is the fact that it is a memoir. I kept saying to myself, there is NO WAY there are people in the United States who lived/live like this! This is the story of the author Jeannette Walls, her Mom, Dad and her three siblings. The [...]

This book is BRILLIANT! I’ve never encountered this style of writing before and it took me by surprise! I couldn’t stop giggling all throughout the book because the writing style was refreshing and funny although the subject matter that it tackled was not funny at all. This book talks about a 17 year boy who [...]

World Without End is a sequel of The Pillars of the Earth. A book rich in history, social issues and religion with architecture sprinkled on top. Unlike the pillars of the earth that revolved around building the Kingsbridge cathedral and was rich in architectural history this book focused more on the social aspects of life [...]

As per wiki: The [...]
