	Wai gave to: Exit A: A Novel (Hardcover) by Anthony Swofford	my rating:
	Wai said: "I got this because it was based in Japan. Okay characters that you could sympathise with and the story isn't too too bad but I think the balance between the past and the present isn't done very well at all. Really easy read (I read it in 4.5 hours ...more " add a comment
	Wai gave to: Where the Red Fern Grows (Mass Market Paperback) by Wilson Rawls	my rating:
	Wai said: "I think the very first book ever that made me cry. (I didn't care too much for Old Yeller but Old Dan and Little Ann...man I was bawling.) " add a comment
	Wai gave to: Animal Farm (Signet Classics) by George Orwell, C.M. Woodhouse (Introduction), Russell Baker (Preface by)	my rating:
	Wai said: "I am partial to this work as it was the first bit of Orwell I had read as a kid and I was blown away. First time I had ever encountered anything of its nature (outside of the True Story about the 3 Little Pigs, which had a similar effect on me.) " add a comment
	Wai gave to: 1984 (Paperback) by George Orwell	my rating:
	Wai said: "Without a doubt, superb and haunting. My only criticism was that at times the characters and their actions got lost in the powerful and much more needed description. Seriously, does anyone actually remember that much of the story? " add a comment
	Wai gave to: Brave New World (Paperback) by Aldous Huxley	my rating:
	Wai said: "Without a doubt one of my favorite books. Fully comprehensible and creates a strong impact. A gem of its time. (Too many copy cat types out there) " add a comment
	Wai gave to: The Truth (With Jokes) by Al Franken	my rating:
	Wai said: "Not my favorite Al Franken (that would have to Lies and the Lying Liars who tell them). It's an interesting read, informative about the second term of the Bush Administration but less provocative (I think) than his previous works. You just get the ...more " add a comment
	Wai gave to: The Unknown Terrorist (Paperback) by Richard Flanagan	my rating:
	Wai said: "Intense story with a very "Aussie" feel. The way everything pans out...I can't describe it...it's quite predictable having interacted with enough Australian writers in my day. But good strong characters and credible story line. " add a comment
	Wai gave to: The Dice Man (Paperback) by Luke Rhinehart	my rating:
	Wai said: "Insane! Gets you to think. Your life will be changed and you will never look at your options in the same way again. " add a comment
	Wai gave to: Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West (Paperback) by Gregory Maguire	my rating:
	Wai said: "Funny witty inventive extension of the original. More obvious political overtones (vs. the very subtle critique of the Gold Standard seen in the Wizard of Oz), lively lovable characters. " add a comment
