Keryn (khouse) | 110 comments Enjoying this, I have it on audio and finding it quite beautiful to listen to, so far beyond the normal context of most books, yet with the same human drama tension of a contemporary novel.


message 3: by Janice, California Raisin (new) - rated it 4 stars

Janice | 96 comments Just finished this gorgeously written book. Although I felt it was a little slow to start, it became really engaging in the last 2/3rds.

Sue | 94 comments Glad to hear that, Janice. I feel like it is a bit slow-going right now. But I'm at about 30%...

Sue | 94 comments Shut it Jason!! ;-)


message 9: by Sue, Sangría (new) - rated it 3 stars

Sue | 94 comments I finished. It was ok. I agree that the end got better but still a bit slow going overall.

Hello. Did you finish Jason?


message 12: by Jason, Cabernet Sauvignon (new) - rated it 4 stars

Jason (ancatdubh2) | 912 comments Jason is not meant to be finished!

Just kidding. No, I am a slow reader these days. I'm still only in the first third.

Sue | 94 comments Ugh!


message 14: by Jason, Cabernet Sauvignon (new) - rated it 4 stars

Jason (ancatdubh2) | 912 comments Finished! I liked this book a lot. It certainly held my interest even though it seemed (at times) a bit of a sociology report. I didn't see (view spoiler) coming. That caught me off-guard.


Daniel | 16 comments Well written throughout, I was left wondering when the real climax was going to hit... And then it did.
The conflict could have been stretched over a few more chapters but then again, the speed in which it hit added some extra "oomph."
