A review by buckyshuman
Karla's Choice by Nick Harkaway

Did not finish book.

I came into this cold. I knew nothing about the previous novels, the original author’s style or Smiley.  And as someone who simply picked up the book —not because I was yearning to get an update on a beloved character — but looking for a good thriller, I was so disappointed. 20 pages in and I wanted to start skimming paragraphs. Life’s too short to read mediocrity. If you aren’t a John le carre enthusiast, just skip it.
