It's just a good album - not experimental, unless you think listening to Paul Simon is an experiment. Great if you lived in New York, went to Columbia and rode the M79.

The title seems to be incorrect, and I had trouble locating it. I think it should be, "The Edge Becomes The Center."

It's a pretty amazing achievement. I had to start it twice (Burial Rites inspired me to try again), got lost in the middle, but I loved the way it was written. It doesn't really resolve, but it picked up at the end and I loved Moody's court arguments. It did remind a little of reading Wolf Hall, although I preferred the style of Luminaries.It's a pretty amazing achievement.

Could be a film for Whistler seasonal workers. I grew up skiing there, but I'm tired of having my credit card stolen every time I visit these days.

It was well written, but I've read smoother transitions between narrators. I didn't really like any of the characters, although I sympathized with Subhash. The most interesting parts might have been the visits back to India.

It's a great movie. Not what I expected. I like the director's comment that we aren't just our jobs. We got to know the lead character, and then found out what she does for a living. And even then, knowing all you do about what she has done, you still like her and see a humanness that is lacking in San Fernando Valley.It's a great movie. Not what I expected.

One of the best teen movies. In a way, it was kind of shame about the last 15 minutes, but I guess necessary to wrap up the story.

A sweet and funny book. I would agree that his falling in love immediately seems to be a recurring theme, and the one girl he really seems to care about he ends up ditching in a day upon meeting her in person and not having chemistry. A little shallow on that count.A sweet and funny book.
