( Dispatches )
Anyway, bottom line: for Anderpeeps, slow at times because of familiarity but engaging and very good in the latter part. For non-Anderpeeps (oh, you'll get converted sooner or later!), you'll probably find it far more "fascinating", "mind-boggling", and "unbelievable"...oh wait, that's just me using too many Anderexpressions, which he DOESN'T do in the book! Fascinating. Yeah, you'll be engaged, and you might find his straightforward narrative slightly annoying/pretentious/SOMETHING at first, before you're accustomed to it, but he's just being himself. It's a good book.
Can't wait to get the audiobook. Right now, I feel kind of disgusted at wanting to hear it because of the Carter and Wyatt parts...it feels like too personal/intrusive to "make him tell me" about that. I still want to hear him swear though.
