Review: Hazards of Time Travel

Hazards of Time Travel by Joyce Carol Oates
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Too many acronyms in the beginning of the book, I can't remember what they all mean. I suspect that was the idea, though, to make it ridiculous. As a resident of the Midwest, I found the punishment to be an interesting one. Interesting story though. I rarely wish for a book to be longer but I would have loved to see where it continued to go. Despite that, the ending was quite good.

Review: Queen of Air and Darkness

Queen of Air and Darkness by Cassandra Clare
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

I think that was at least one hundred pages longer than it needs to be. I used to really enjoy these series but I'm kind of glad it's over.

Surprising and beautiful. I think I fell in love with its restraint.

Very entertaining read. I didn't realise until I finished the story that this was based on real people and events. I look forward to reading book two.

The writing was very good but the story was extremely depressing. I will not be watching the movie.

Review: The Lost City of the Monkey God

The Lost City of the Monkey God by Douglas Preston
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The first part of this book, dealing with exploration and some history, was very interesting and unputdownable. The second part, dealing mainly with disease, not so much.

A bit long and rambling, but not bad. I didn't like it so much that i have to read the next book right away but I hope to get to it eventually.
