Chick lit but entertaining, not boring, lively chick lit than doesn't make you overdosed on the pink and fluffy. Blue is fun to watch and the reader can easily identify with the emotional journey she takes. Phillips chose to have two narrators, the girl and the boy. And I wrote girl and boy even though both characters are in their early thirty they are emotionally in their late teens. Not the next American masterpiece but good, fun chick lit that doesn't leave an aftertaste of too much sugar or purple prose.

I initially thought I wouldn't be overly pushed on this book when I realised it was primarily an academic sociological work detailing why people don't act even when they are aware of climate change and accept that we are contributing to it. I had been expecting a preaching to the converted, why deniers are deniers, type book, but it is not that. I'm glad it wasn't what I had expected, and that I didn't give up on it (I'm not a big reader of academic sociological works) as it definitely opened my mind (and touched a few nerves) on the roles community and society can play in enabling those of us who do believe in AGW to either put it to one side or to even justify doing nothing.

I am ashamed to say that I have only just read this book, after years of having it on my shelf. Anyway, it was good and funny, of course. Just what I needed at the time!

I listened to this on audio- it was cute, light, predictable; but a good listen for commuting.

A fine and easily read biography of Jack Parsons (1914-1952). The author progresses in a workmanlike fashion with little flair or style, merely trotting out fact after fact, usually chronologically but sometimes in a more confusing fashion, with diversions which could have been cleaned up. After the brilliant introduction by the late Robert Anton Wilson (and the lamentation in realizing that there is a finite amount of R.A.W.'s writing which I have not yet read, which can never increase), Carter's tale of Parsons begins and is quite engrossing, despite its above mentioned flaws. I was largely ignorant of both the American OTO, the history of rocket research in CalTech and J.P.L (Jet Propulsion Lab, or Jack Parson's Laboratory? Or Jack Parson Lives!) and the early history of rocket research in the US (Parsons met Robert Goddard, and possibly even Werner Von Braun after the war), and I had previously though that Parsons was merely interested in Crowley. Actually, they had a large correspondence, Parsons sent THE BEAST money, and Crowley was interested in Parson's life and work. Crowley was disappointed when Parsons was swindled out of thousands of dollars by none other than L. Ron Hubbard himself, whom THE BEAST 666 calls a 'confidence man'! Actually, that L. Ron Hubbard, a scheisty sci-fi pulp author and neophyte magickal adept, would steal a high ranking thelemic magician's money (which Parsons got from cashing out of Aerojet Inc, which still services NASA) and his girlfriend, buy a yacht with it, and run the risk of magickal retribution is pretty crazy in and of itself. I was happy to see the linkages between all these interesting 20th century personages (Crowley, Parsons, L.Ron Hubbard, Lovecraft, Von Braun, Goddard, Phillip K Dick even), which kept me reading straight through, finishing the book in about 10 hours total. Also interesting were the diversions into the 19th century history of the OTO, and mini-biographies of Dr. John Dee, court magician to Queen Elizabeth I, and Edward Kelley, his partner in what could only be described as spooky medieval Enochian shenanigans. Trivialities: • Line 4, page XIV of the introduction by R.A.W. contains a spelling error: 'fundamtalists'. • In a footnote, Carter mentions that a Master Mason knocks three times to be admitted to the lodge for initiation. This is wrong as only a candidate for 1˚ is 'initiated', whereas a Master Mason 3˚ has been 'raised' to the sublime degree of Master Mason and would not need to knock for admittance, unless he is outside the lodge after it has been opened.

I'm so glad I stumbled onto this imaginative steam-punk series. I loved the protagonist, a fictionalized Sir Richard Francis Burton, his side-kick, an equally fictionalized Algernon Charles Swinburne, and their adventures in this alternate Victorian England, complete with genetically modified animals, steam engine-propelled penny farthings and flying rotochairs (view spoiler). I loved the inclusion of so many personalities of the time, such as Charles Darwin, Florence Nightingale and Oscar Wilde, and the allusions to others like Edgar Allen Poe's C. Auguste Dupin and Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes. Though a few points of the novel bogged down with speeches on the nature of man in relation to the ethics of the technological advances occurring, the pacing builds nicely throughout the book and climaxes in a rip-roaring crescendo. I am very much looking forward to reading the sequel, The Curious Case of the Clockwork Man.
