Title: Worst book I ever read, Best book I ever read
Product review: When I first read this book, I was in junior high. I found the plot changes confusing, the characters stupid and in general, it was boring. It was much the same way with RAH's other books which were written for adults. I put these books aside, grew up a little, experienced life a little and began reading RAH again. I found the novels that he had written for adults to be just that - for adults. They were complex, intriguing, naughty, controversial, funny and endearing. This novel and Time Enough for Love, I feel exemplifies the best adult writing that RAH wrote. To Sail Beyond the Sunset rates a very close second. He is not Shakespeare, nor does he pretend to be. But I find the plot and the down home style of storytelling to be just what I find to be great reading.
