It is definitely worth getting all the way through, though. Lol! I know what you mean by having a pile of books to get through. i'm constantly reading 3 or 4 or 10 books at a time, with another pile stacked on my desk that I want to get through. 119651@blogcritics.org Thu, 17 Feb 2005 16:23:43 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2005/02/17/113828.php#comment-119584 I've had two false starts with this book so far. Each time I get about 400 pages into it and then set it aside for one reason or another. It's not that I don't enjoy it, it's just that the density of his prose or the amount of things going on is often times overwhelming. I'm planning on finishing it this summer, but only if I manage to get past Summerland, You Shall Know Our Velocity, and the twelve other books I need to finish. 119584@blogcritics.org Thu, 17 Feb 2005 13:23:09 EST
