Hard Crash by Christie Golden
4.0
Loved it ! Brilliant novelization ! Integrating all human emotions in aliens as well in machines was brilliantly done. I just love the fact that this adventure is satisfactorily long ! Cheers for Soloman !
The Fall by Albert Camus
5.0
Amazing ! Brilliant ! Piece of genius ! Oh the wise words shall never be forgotten ! He spoke the truth alright ! Humans are so pathetic and predictable creatures. We never reflect to see what we do, why we do ? The cursed wise mind does and the truth is pretty ugly ! I related to the character perfectly apart from the fact he drinks and does not believe in god ! That was a bit too much ? I think there might have been a contraversy ? Anyways, this is a must read !
Interphase, Part 1 by Kevin Dilmore, Dayton Ward, Dayton Ward

70% of it was dull but can't blame anyone for that since this is just part 1 of the whole story and is just building up ! Proper review on next part ! Though the ending did catch my attention and my curiosity to continue this !
Interphase, Part 2 by Kevin Dilmore, Dayton Ward, Dayton Ward

Now that's what I am talking about ! Great action and concept ! Loving the chemistry between Sonya and Duffy ! I want a freaking war b/w Starfleet and klingons ! I hope there is one in next few books !
A Study in Scarlet by Arthur Conan Doyle
5.0
"And who was the first?" John Watson uttered these words and my stomach twirled as I felt to stab myself and drag the dagger all the way to throat so my excitement could be answered. Oh so here it begins ! > I have always loved Sherlock Holmes through TV series and movies but reading this really brought him to life ! A man who I truly hold above others when it comes to listing my mentors ! Brilliant character created by Arthur Conan Doyle, no detective before or even in coming years shall win over him ! > It makes us begs the question, how ignorant of life we really are ? >> Can't wait to read all of the works ! >>
Quite a dramatic back story give by Doyle here ! The man got his revenge just before dying added that godly element to it. I liked it ! But I expected Sherlock Holmes to find the criminal , hear his story and let him go ! That's how I predicted but that's not how it was ! Well, literature Sherlock Holmes is bound to be little different from Movies> Anyways, it's a piece of perfection !

The Sign of the Four by Arthur Conan Doyle

Crazy mystery and adventure leaving you open mouthed !
Loved it ! Another great case, though this one was far better than study in scarlet, every little detail was to perfection !
John Watson really ? I always thought that he will be all alone in the books ! Mary Morstan was figured to be his wife ? That was certainly unexpected ! Well happy for him I guess ! Sherlock Holmes has one remarkable view of women ! Haha >

Your Dreams Are Mine Now by Ravinder Singh

It's a good little story but extremely cliched ! I can't believe this was a best seller !
Animal Farm by George Orwell
5.0
Brilliant ! Pure genius in the words of this novel. In the beginning, it wasn't really great but as it developed and how it ended left a mark ! This is an amazing piece of satire. It shows us pathetic human's efforts to control things really are. Perfect mockery of 'democracy' actually works. How action of a single man can effect lives of many. And also to mention, how blind people really are and it gets even more pathetic when of world actually think they know what's going on.
George Orwell, Hats off !
The line in the novel that summarizes the whole novel in a way.
"All animals are equal but some animals are more equal.

The Time Machine by H.G. Wells
3.0
Didn't quite live up to expectation. I was expecting so much. I loved authors imagination in this and how he put it in words. But really everything was in the quite meaningless, apart from leaving the mystery where the the time traveler is now ? Also reminded of a novel I quite don't love called " Guliver Travels " >>
Loved the last line
And I have by me, for my comfort, two strange white flowers - shrivelled now, and brown and flat and brittle - to witness that even when mind and stregth had gone, gratitude and a mutual tenderness still lived on in the heart of man.
