The kind of guy you want to have a beer with. Great story telling and full of interesting nuggets too.

I‘m always amazed when a writer can make such a suspenseful story when the reader already knows the ending.

This ending was far out but I was on the edge of my seat for the last 50 pages.

Drugs are bad and can be so devastating to so many. It‘s amazing when beautiful and powerful art can survive the damage.

It‘s so nice to read an entertaining book while also learning about the world and history that may have fallen thru the cracks.

The names in the book caused me to stumble and kept me from fully losing myself in the story.

Great read. Everything about The Troubles in Northern Ireland is so tragic and interesting.

This build up had me lulled into a feeling that the ending would be a let down. Not so. I did not see it coming at all.

Could be a good movie someday.

I‘ve always wanted to go to Haiti. Hearing Wyclef Jean as a teen made a big impression for some reason.

Just so-so at the halfway mark. It was very meta to find this book in the library that is mentioned in the book.

Good read as usual from Michael Lewis. The book will make you mad about all the mistakes made with our handling of the pandemic.

New reading buddy.

Early on I thought this book might take more of a turn towards sci-fi. Pretty good overall, felt let down by the ending.

I‘m really enjoying this book but I feel a little guilty as a man reading this book. Can‘t wait for my wife to read it and see the differing ideas we pull from it.
