Received in the mail today! Will start reading right away. Thanks!
Although I enjoyed the story, it tended to ramble and go off on tangents in a few parts.
Thanks for letting me read this. Will send to Helly77 tomorrow.
Thanks for letting me read this. Will send to Helly77 tomorrow.
Received safely. Been looking forward to this one. Will get round to it right away!
My problem with this book was that I absolutely love the film! No matter how hard I tried, Ellie was always Jodie Foster and Joss was always Matthew McConaughey!
The book is fine, a wee bit rambling in places, but the story I love is the adapted version for the film. There were just too many huge differences between the two for me to love the book.
I know its awful, but thats how I feel! :o(
I just wish it was more enjoyable for me.
Thanks for the chance to read it though - I'm off to watch the lovely Mr. McConaughey now though! ;o)
Will send on this week.

It's going over to shellyann.
Just came in today's mail-its not what I thought it was. I will be contacting caligula03 and sending it to her.
The book has arrived. I will read it as soon as I can. Thanks.
When I saw the film I felt there was a lot left out. The film's narrative seemed disjointed and rushed. The book while it does fill in some of those glossed in details has its own pacing problems. After spending pages and pages explaining why something can't be done, this road block is suddenly gone. Then there's the ultimate "trip" to Vega is just as disappointing in the book (though certainly more coherent than the cinematic version).
