Based on this review, would the user recommend this product? === Review: We should all have friendships like Cat and Lily. I sailed through the book smiling, chuckling and even crying. A great read that left me wanting more and thrilled that this was the first of three books. Written with an eye to detail, not only of the surroundings, but of the heart and soul of the characters as they grow and accept the twists and turns of life and embrace them without disabling fear....and make the changes that will take them on their next journey....onward to Girls with Hammers...can't wait! Answer:
Yes

This movie is so bad it would be inappropriate for me to explain what is bad about it. This would be analogous to calling the cops to a scene of mass slaughter and having them arrive and say, "Sooo... what seems to be the trouble here?""Well, these people... they're all dead.""Aaaand that's... bad?" Answer:
No

Based on this review, would the user recommend this product? === Review: I bought this on the strength of it's reception of the Hugo award and was initially very excited to read it. However, I ended up very dissapointed. As many others have noted: the characters are weak; the writing is poor; and the plot is about the most plodding I have read in a long time. The last point is perhaps the worst ... it was just not an entertaining read. This book is not a page turner.I note many other reviewers at the other end of the spectrum: a 'seminal' novel, a dark sense of humor, amazing allegory, 'you have to think to read it', etc. I just can't relate to these...I find it difficult to believe they were reading the same novel. I particuarly don't understand the 'humor' aspect of many comments...I found nothing funny at all in here, not in the least. If you want funny (and an excellent book overall), I would recommend Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson. Answer:
No

Based on this review, would the user recommend this product? === Review: Elwood said it best when he said music of the future would all be pre-programmed, electronic disco sh*t. Well, we're pretty close, aren't we? Do people really buy CD's anymore? I do, on occasion, only because there may come a day when we still have electricity but the ISP goes down, and I want to listen to some tunes. The cloud may not be up and running. Or, I may want to make a virtual mix-tape, and rip a few songs from a CD. Whatever the reason, this CD is done right, and deserves a place next to the other Classics. Answer:
