This is the sort of book that should never be made into a movie. The strength of the book is the fact that the central character changes only a little bit- she does gain a better connection with her daughter, and starts to accept more of the past and the future, but in a movie, instead of the subtle changes shown here, it’d be hosed down in sludgy glurge.

Many of the references are dated, so even if a story would have been funny in the time it was printed, it’s much less funny now.

The best book ever! Ok, I say this about every 3rd book I read. But I really enjoyed it. It was hard to read at times because of the nonstandard English, but the story was enticing, amazing and not your average space opera. I gladly am taking the fine for this.

Holy shirtless black men! Mmm mm!

I was worried that I had read this before, but apparently I haven’t.

They should make college freshmen read the whole book in english 101.
