Chris (horizon_brave) is starting Killing Commendatore
Just spent almost 2 pages, of a 12 year old girl describing her breast size to an 36 year old man, and him relating it to his dead 12 year old sister. I can't..fucking stand this shit… This has absolutely nothing NOTHING to do with the story, and it's getting sick..

Wow...I'm not finished yet... but this could possibly be one of the biggest disappointing turn arounds and changes in themes for me in any book I've read... Plenty of time for change..but what has become of the 'flavour' of this book.. leaves me thinking this may be my last Murikami.

Jesus christ, can this bullshit stop?? The story is getting intense… really dark, spiritual, metaphoric, and very deep…And then the random cheating girlfriend calls, and Murikami turns into into a pornographic novel, baselessly describing random and completely inconsequential sex acts and vulgar descriptions that have ZERO to do with the plot. This same crap is what killed 1Q84 for me…

I love how referential this series is. Here we get a book…read by characters about themselves, in a book by Theodora Goss, being "written" by one of the characters in her book… I honestly don't know how it works…but it does

I have my issues (no pun) but gosh darn, does Synder bring something new fresh and respectful to Swamp Thing. I sort of regret not having read this in the the years ago when it came out... New 52 get's a lot of flak...This is one of the bring shining exceptions...

I'm stunned by how one of the writers to three of my favorite Star Wars...could honestly come up with this...I hate to say...garbage writing..

So...pretty stereotypical characters, cliche plot devices...but not a bad narrator, story is still oddly intriguing, but reminds me way way too much of Mark Russinovich's Hacker series...

I really like how Vader refers to Anakin as "The Jedi", completely distancing himself and removing himself from his own past.

Interesting, that as much of a massive pop culture icon HAL 9000 has become and so recognizable..he's actually not the real center of this narrative...

I think I can say this safely... Elim Garak is the most interesting, dynamic and multi-layered character in all of Star Trek..

Haven't seen the movie, so I'm curious to read the story behind the movie that caused so much stir! I'm relieved I haven't had prior exposure to it so I can get my own perspective...plus...been on a Swamp Thing kick... this statement may or may not be relavant as I get further in...

I honestly think that this should not be classified as a Y.A novel... The writing here is splendid, I love the relationship between Tzain and Zel.. it's a rare book that I can say I really feel something for each of the characters on both sides of the fence. Ms. Adeyemi, you have crafted something special here...
