Juniorin erikoinen elämä (2009)
Excellent book! A patron recommended this book to me. What would you do if you knew when the world would end? Would you try and save everyone? Would you throw caution to the wind and live your life however you wanted, with no care about the consequences? Junior is told, while still in his moth...
Ogni cosa è importante! (2009)
This book took me for quite a spin! Although initially a slow starter, starting at the birth of the main character (inspiringly named 'Junior') it's unique premise is that he knows exactly when the world will end. The rest of the book is him screwing up his entire life because of this knowledge a...
Trash (2010)
ความจริงอ่านเป็นภาษาไทยนะ หุสนุกดีชอบ เป็นหนังปีนี้แล้วด้วย ชอบการบรรยายเกี่ยวกับเบฮาลา เกี่ยวกับความคิดของเด็กๆในกองขยะเป็นเรื่องที่อ่านแลัวกลับมาหดหู่กับตัวเอง เรานี่ดูฟุ่มเฟือยไปเลย ถถถถตอนจบแอบนิ่งๆไปหน่อย แต่คนเขียนเค้าคงตั้งใจตามแค่เรื่องราวของราฟาเอล การ์โด จุนจุนเพราะสิ่งที่ทั้งสามทำไปจะผ...
Cibola Burn (2014)
I can't even begin to express how much I love this series. Right now it easily my favorite series in any genre going. A big giant space opera with lots of great characters. A central mystery that passes through every novel and yet the satisfaction of always getting to have a sparkling conclusion ...
The Second Ship (2006)
A fun introduction to science fiction for fans of thrillers and spy novels! This is science fiction only in that it revolves around 2 alien space craft and the repercussions of them being found in NM. The cast of characters includes a group of assassins, Native Americans, a trio of teens, a cra...
Generation A (2009)
1) I hope that our own dystopias are as fun and meaningful as the ones that Coupland writes.2) Reading is like a drug for me sometimes. I use novels specifically to lose myself, find myself, push away the world, learn more about the world, connect with the human condition, forget about the human ...
The Visible Man (2011)
A classic invisible man tale with fun Klosterman mini-rants thrown in. The ridiculous storyline is made all the better/recursive by having one self unaware character discussing the flaws of another equally unaware person in a very self conscious way. This book is under-reviewed, and is frankly b...
Vader's Little Princess (2013)
If this were a picture book, it'd get 5 stars, but since it's not....It did have a lot of funny scenes and lines from the movies that were twisted in a funny way, but it just didn't flow very well for me.Everything was random and made me "Wait, huh?" If this was done intentionally (which I wouldn...
Kill Decision (2012)
In "Kill Decision" the driving theme is one of terrorism: anonymous haters destroying things out of a malice that is at best dimly understood. Destroying by way of autonomous "drones" programmed with encoded rules enabling them to make their own 'Kill Decision'. The terrifying behaviors seen in H...
Justice League, Vol. 1: Origin (2012)
This was actually much better than I was expecting. I was seriously disappointed with the JLA: War animated movie so I honestly only read this because I love Geoff Johns and Jim Lee. The artwork was absolutely as gorgeous as I was expecting/hoping so I have no complaints about that. And honestly,...
Dreadnaught (2011)
I have a blind spot for action-heavy military sci-fi, so this review is going to be horribly biased. Also, lots of spoilers if one hasn’t read the original Lost Fleet books by Campbell.This book picks up where the last book of the previous series left off. Amidst a bunch of political maneuvering,...
Açlık Sancıları (2012)
I think I will never EVER read a parody book again.Such a waste of my 'precious' time. This book was really funny at the start, but as we proceed it got less and less funnier. Now I think that synopsis for this book is more funnier than this whole book is and the level of stupidity, God, I was li...
Die Trantüten von Panem: Die gefährliche Hunger-Games-Parodie (2012)
I was fooled into buying this book by its blurb, a few surprisingly good reviews on Goodreads and a great discount on Amazon.While readable, the book is not laugh-out-loud funny. It does have some things going for it like the wacky names (eg: Haymitch Abernathy’s character is called "Buttitch", K...
Hamburger Games (2012)
It's okay. Bits of it are pretty funny. There was an over reliance on the characters just being stupid, which doesn't appeal to me. The humor should be more than this character is so stupid and that character is so fat and stupid. My favorite part of the book was the two guys flying the hovercraf...
California (2014)
This was just a bad book, there is no other way around it. I literally said to a friend that it was getting exciting when I was at 90% completion. Everything before that had been a complete bore. The writing and the plot (or lack thereof) was completely wanting. And the ending was seriously awful...
