I found this hard going sometimes, but I think after I finished it, an appreciation developed for the philosophy inherent in the story.

This book was very hard going! I never developed a liking or any sympathy for the characters. And Will's head battles began to wear on my nerves. Hopefully, someone else will find it more enjoyable.

It was sent to me through titletrader, and it was a suprise to see that it was a bookcrossing book! Fantastic! I will be driving cross country soon with a crate of new book crossing books, and this will be one of them, assuming I finish it. I have only read a few pages thus far, but books with exclamation points in their titles always make me excited.

Update: I finished the book, and it was completely amazing. I found myself thinking like Will for a time, trying to guess what other people are thinking. I got mad at Eggers in the middle of the book for killing some of the magic, but then I realized that maybe Hand wasn't reliable, either. Maybe no one was, but I still want to believe in the need for going because you need to go. . .
I will now make sure this book keeps going, guessing at its velocity.
