    Is The Dante Club so bad? And what about The Poe Shadow?

    Best: Norwegian Wood - Haruki Murakami, a new and refreshing read, I was sad when it ended.
    Worst: Doctors and Nurses - Lucy Ellmann, worst book, not only of 2006, but ever.
    I enjoy talking to you. Your mind appeals to me.
    It resembles my own mind except that you happen to be insane.

    worst: A Feast For Crows - George R. R. Martin. I loved the first 3 books in this epic series, but couldn't even finish the fourth. I just didn't find the characters as interesting, and the plot seemed to really slow down.

    best: Darkness at Noon - Arthur Koestler. Nuff said, great book.
    Doc awakened very slowly and clumsily like a fat man getting out of a swimming pool. - John Steinbeck
