Too bad that the editing stole one star away. I hope Mr. Smith smooths it out.
:lol2: You were obviously hungry!
It was definitely fun. With no errors, it's an easy perfect score.

I love it when a book starts by telling the stories of various people. Then slowly, intricately, it starts to link the characters together as the roads of their journeys converge.
I love this too! This sounds like such a fun read with great characters and great character interaction. I'm sorry to hear that the ending didn't do the lead-up justice. Thanks for the review!
Thanks so much for commenting! The characters were awesome. I even left a few out of my summary. If you can actually believe that. :shock:
Thanks for stopping by!
It's SO HARD to include all noteworthy characters in these brief reviews! I'm often left going, "But... but... there are so many other things to say...." :P

Ugh, I know! I even had to cut this summary down a bit. And it's STILL too long.
We live and we learn, I suppose :)

Yep, this one gives a totally different theory for the origin of mankind... :no-spoil:

Latest Review: Not Fishy Enough by Briton Kolber

Post by Kajori Sheryl Paul »

This book was such fun to read. The characters were all so well developed that it was easy to sympathise with them. The ease of the dialogue, the elaborate characters, and the fast-paced story all made this a truly enjoyable read. I have difficulty enjoying books when I can’t picture the interchanges between characters. The conversations between the people in this book were flawless. This made the characters relevant, and I felt engaged in all of their lives. The author, Sean T. Smith, also threw a healthy dose of humour into the dialogue, which I loved.
This makes the book sound like a must read.

Thank you for the lovely review.

This book definitely gained my interest! I find the character development and quality of the dialogue to be a huge determiner of my enjoyment of a book, and its hard to know if the author will meet my high standards beforehand! In spite of the lackluster ending, I am definitely going to add this book to my list! Thanks for the great review!

Ooh, this sounds like an interesting take on aliens! I'm definitely interested, but it's a pity about the rushed ending (as my enjoyment seems to fall flat with these) and the errors. I'll certainly keep an eye out for this title; thanks for the brilliant review as always, Bianka!
