My reptilian connection remains strong. People have called me brontosaurus. The first story I ever wrote as a kid was about time travel and hunting prehistoric beasts, an episode that inspired the scene with young Max and little Vera in "The Extrasense." And finally, most music that I listen to belongs to a long-gone era. Begin the list with the Beatles and the Zombies and end somewhere around Dire Straits and Depeche Mode. ...more

Alex Rozen and 10 other people liked Lejla's review of Theo of Golden: "I don’t think I’ve ever regretted committing to a book this much. The writing feels weak, the pacing is painfully slow, and everything seems to exist purely to support an overdone, heavy-handed Christian message. It aims to be “heartwarming,” but for" Read more of this review »

It began great (I loved The Feminist), but the author couldn't sustain the momentum. This is what happens when you take a short story and try to blow it up into a novel. I started to skip parts of it and finally gave up with less than 25% left. I jus ...more
