Eeeee eee EEEE
When I first ordered this book I was sure to enjoy it. Once I began reading it I wasn't so sure. Overall the plot of the book is quite confusing and it would probably take you to read half of the book before you actually understand the concept of it and what the writter was trying to do. I started reading this book a few times before I finally committed myself to it. It's a unique and weird book but I'm sure it will appeal to those who see life in a different aspect. For everyone else however... I'm not so sure.

It a sense the plot and the characters are quite comforting, because they show you that there are poeople worse off then you.

yes
i liked this novel. too.
this book put me in a bad mood and made me feel miserable.
but in between that it made me feel very happy.

best of all i liked the bits with the bears and the moose and the dolphins.

intern club
i liked this novel. it is 30,000 words long, i think.

tao lin is my intern. i am tao lin's intern. i am writing this review because he told me to. i asked him to post a link to my blog in return. i don't know if that is a 'fair trade'. i think it is. i have no idea. it's late at night. it's 3 in the morning. i feel confused. i think i am 'having fun'.

i liked this novel. i read it for the first time about four months ago. i feel like i want to read it again. some parts made me laugh out loud. it is hard to write a book review, without using cliches.
