Oh, what a book! This got 5 stars and three hearts from me, and in the interest of full disclosure, most years my average rating is 3.4 stars (3 being a like).That said, I don't want to over-hype it because of course not everyone loves it. I liked the audiobook, but at least one of my GR friends didn't like how he read it--such a personal experience :)
Just got my ebook from the library but too many books to read this week. I’ll probably start next week.
Hello everyone, I did not sign up for this. But I'm going to pretend like I did and read this book with you all. It has been recommended way too many times to ignore.

Oh wow! after reading your comment I am hopeful about the book turning out to be a good one.
Hello All.. I have read only 34 pages of the book as yet. I think the book is a promising one. Too soon to comment about what's going on..

Yes, I agree that 34 pages is too soon having read the entire book :) I hope you like it.
Till now the book has my attention. I have just finished part 1, and the story is setting base. I like it till here. I hate the fact that Marie Laure has lost her sight and Werner is not able to study what he wants to..
I read this book a few years ago, and I have given very few 5 star ratings since then. Very little of what I've read since then comes close! I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did!

So far, I am on page 256, and I like how the story is progress, even though the progress is slow. I feel a few people may not like that, whereas I like slowly progressing pace of the book, it has my attention and I am inquisitive. How is it coming along for you guys?
I like the fact that the book has small chapters and that’s what keeping my interest in this book. I am just at Part 1 and progressing very slowly.
