It felt like climbing a steep mountain only to fall of a cliff!!!!!
hope the movie is better
I guess I will wait on the movie and hope it is better. At least it will be condensed into 90 minutes. The buzz about the book and movie finally got to me so I downloaded the audio book. It was a boring mess. The subject matter in the first story was not my sort of thing. I expect a book to hook me from the beginning, not drag on and on making me wonder why I am bothering in the first place. The second story was 1 star better then the first and the 3 an 4 th story were ones that I can connect with and I guess my favorite was the 5th, only because I am such a huge fan of dystopia Medea. It reminded me so much of "a brand new world". The 6 th and last story was just a jumbled mess I don't know where to begin. It felt like I was struggling to get to the top of the mountian just to get to the other side of the 5th story. And after that it was all down hill for me. If somni story was I novel by its self I would have given it 4 stars.
