Dude. This is the coolest sci-fi ever! I wish I was as smart as Dr. Asimov. So fun.

"...intelligence is the ability of a living creature to perform pointless or unnatural acts. Unfortunately...a million years will pass...and we will cease making the mistakes which are...an integral part of intelligence. And then, if anything in the universe changes, we will happily become extinct...precisely because we’ve lost the art of making mistakes, that is, trying various things not prescribed by a rigid code”

I'm getting it now... Each character will tell their story, then they face "the monster at the end of this book"!

Amazing book

I'm ready to tackle this beast, undaunted by its 1000+ pages!

Trying to get back into this and finish!

I'm not sure why, but I'm stalling--I can't seem to pick it up and finish it.

Does he count as a radical if he makes perfect sense?

This just got really ugly

The descent

Meeting the characters...

Repulsion and attraction rolled into one creepy girl.

If you care about him, is he still a "monster"?

It's charming. It's long.

I've seen the movie like ten times, so I can't help but compare the two.

Lovin' this. Just wish I had the audio book, because I only get in 5 minutes of reading a week :(

Fun and unique. Also so funny! I just smile thinking about it. I'm very interested to see where all of this goes...

Nearly to the end-game. I love this series.

I am loving this book as much as the first one so far. It's just good sci-fi! Go Rook go!

Halfway thru

This is more of a soap drama than I had expected. Still very good writing, though. I'm enjoying it!

My wife and I are buddy-reading this one. She got into the new BBC series and loved it.

Longest book I've ever read (except the Bible I guess). My whole reading life is on hold while I tackle this monster!

This book does have awesomeness.
