Review: Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson

Posted by Cynical Sarah on March 8, 2010

Cryptonomicon is a book my husband picked up a while ago. I discovered it on our dusty bookshelf and decided to give it a look.

This book is 1,130 pages long, and I do mean long. Only through sheer will did I make it through the first 200-300 pages to finally get to the point where I was hooked and needed to see how the rest of the story was going to play out. (I’m pretty sure Troy didn’t make it to that point. A dog-eared Page 263 marks where he gave up.)

Completely Booked

Posted by Cynical Sarah on August 24, 2007

Over the last couple months I’ve started reading four different books. It started with a book I was reading to review for work. I got about a third of the way into it before I got busy with other things (also known as probably got bored with it) and set it aside.
