38/52: The Likeability Factor by Tim Sanders, 1/5 Stars
I started this book about 10 months ago and never picked it up again, until today. I skimmed the last few pages and found that it still didn't capture me. However, I still put Love is the Killer App, on my must-read list. Sanders and I connected on that one.
37/52: Under the Dome by Stephen King, 3/5 Stars
Tabbed as microcosm's answer to the macrocosm apocalyptic (and zamees favorite), The Stand, I jumped into this 1000-page tome with fervor! King didn't disappoint by rendering several characters and building his tremendous good versus evil formula with the great climax... which totally disappointed me. Boo. I loved everything about this read except the reason for the dome. BTW, does a 1000-page book count for 3 books, or what?
36/52: Bodies Electric: The Novel by Colin Harrison, 3/5 Stars
I didn't nearly enjoy this book as much as the last Harrison book I read, but I like the way he writes, with an ample vocabulary and a talent for making me want to turn the next page. BTW, this was the first book I read on my new Kindle!
