4/5 I finished this earlier this year and somehow forgot to add it here, despite reviewing it for my shelf. My original review:
"So, here's the thing - I felt like I actually disagreed with the author not a little bit (we clearly have some differing tastes in architecture, though I say this primarily in regards to some of the implications that might hold). However, I would be lying if I didn't say that I really rather enjoyed the work and the prose, despite our individual departures."

Only two more In Deaths and I am DUNZO. Longer review: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

3.5/5 Um, Tallulah Bankhead may actually be the most Interesting (Wo)man in the World. Those Dos Equis commercials should maybe star *her*.

2/5 I find it tempting to say that everyone in this book is irredeemably dumb as bricks, but more apt would be that, in this admittedly occasionally funny created world, common sense certainly isn't common.

3/5 I spent a good deal of this book being annoyed at the heroine, but it was still pretty darn good.
