Sumit Singla (sumitsingla) I thought it might be a good idea to start documenting all my reads, and reviews on one thread and hear more about them from others too.

Would be interesting to hear someone else trashing a book I love, or praising something I trashed. :)

Also, I'm hoping that it'll be a learning experience for me - to write down what I think currently about a book, and revisit it later to see if I've moved on or if those thoughts still hold.

In addition, I LOVE it when people disagree with me. If everyone kept agreeing all the time, we'd never learn new ideas and things.

So, help me sustain this - and let's have fun!

Oh well, the art is worth 6 stars on 5. But the story is worth only 2. :P Therefore, it still comes down to the same score. :)
