Aaaahhhh finally a book that got me excited again. About the 135 mile Badwater Ultramarathon that goes through deserts and mountain ranges.

Once that's done I can't wait to read

Decent read. Nothing spectacular or monumental happens, just a realistic coming of age story of a girl in a small town middle-class family.

What did you think of it? I've been thinking of getting it after watching a video review on youtube.

TimeandTide

It reads like young adult fiction for a target audience of 35-year-old men. I enjoyed the many references to pen-and-paper gaming, sci-fi movies, and text-based video games, but there are just way too many '80s allusions squeezed in, many of which have nothing to do with anything and just sound like Cline was making a play for the title of World's Biggest Nerd. I think your level of enjoyment will depend on how big of a geek you were in the early- to mid-'80s.

Didn't hate it, however, and breezed through it in three days, so worth picking up (from library, if possible) if you LOVED the 1980s.

He is one of my favorite military history authors. The original title was All Hell Let Loose. Wonder why they changed the title for the US.

I enjoyed it. However, I am a huge Ohio State football and basketball fan, so this book is aimed right at me. I think if you are a fan of college basketball, but not Ohio State, you would probably still enjoy it. Titus sort of reads like a poor man's Bill Simmons. If you like Bill Simmons, you will probably enjoy this book. It is a very quick and easy read.

Not finished yet, but it's a pretty interesting read. Seems more than a bit long-winded in places. The journey even to the stripping point is unbelievable; interested to see how the other part turns out.

Enjoyed it a lot. Your typical Nick Hornby novel, witty with heart.

I'm reading the YA Private series.

Total popcorn reads but the stupid series just hooked me and now I have to know all about Noelle, Reed, and Ariana.

Finished Tad Williams' Shadowmarch quadrilogy (Shadowmarch, Shadowplay, Shadowrise, Shadowheart). That's nearly 3000 pages of shadows!
