ericakaye1 's review for:
Cryptonomicon
by Neal Stephenson
Well, this book definitely challenged me in ways a book read for pleasure never really has before. I added so many words to my Kindle dictionary flashcards that I can definitely see my vocabulary improving as soon as I study up!
It took me a few chapters to really understand the structure and flow of the book. There are several storylines taking place, that don't begin to converge until a few chapters in. This novel really went out into the geekosphere, which was amusing but at times a bit much.
Overall, a pretty good book with some amazing characters, which introduced me to some new topics of thought that I had not explored previously. I'll be reading Stephenson's Snow Crash soon.
