My Reviews
Frankenstein (Cambridge Literature) by Mary Shelley
Interesting, Fantastic, Brilliant
A classic never done justice in the filmGreat classic novel with classic themes still relevant today.
Tuesdays with Morrie: An Old Man, a Young Man, and Life's Greatest Lesson, 20th Anniversary Edition by Mitch Albom
Insightful, Inspiring, Interesting
Great discussion on what's important in life (and what's not)Great discussion book on life, death, and what's really important.
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
Interesting, Slow, Dark
Very slow start (think personal diary), but makes up for it in the end.I, like many in our group thought the first 2/3 of the story was lacking in depth or had a "monotone" emotional feel. If you can survive the first 200 pages (easy read) it's worth the ending. Characters are very petty and conniving.
Deer Hunting with Jesus: Dispatches from America's Class War by Joe Bageant
Great discussion on class and how economics determine class
A great book for discussion on many different levels involving class, capitalism, economics, and status
