I was given an ARC of Robison Wells Variant a few years
back, and had to write a review about it. I re-read it recently so this review
may be be different from my first one. Read more after the jump.

Fahrenheit 451- Ray Bradbury reviewed
Having used Fahrenheit
451 for my Bachelor’s thesis on Dystopian fiction, I spent a lot of time analyzing
the book. It’s one of my favorite books- probably my favorite of Ray Bradbury’s,
beating out even the magical Dandelion
wine. Summary and review after the jump.

The Dinner- Herman Koch reviewed
My cousin recommended The Dinner a while back, so I was
looking around for it for a while. However, Dutch books are pretty expensive
compared to their English counterparts –which I find crazy since I live in the
Netherlands yet they keep their own books pricier over other language books-,
and I was determined to read the novel in its original Dutch version. Luckily,
as I was scouring through boxes of books on the market one day I came across a
copy for 2 Euros, and I immediately picked it up. That was already a few months
back. I finally got round to reading it. Review and summary after the jump.
