I actually wasn't too impressed it's obviously beautifully written and it's very emotional and engaging but it also felt a little bit cheap perhaps it felt as if maybe its themes its plot developments where were maybe pulling at a few easy strings in the reader's heart

Playground by Richard Powers REVIEW
I think playground is a fantastic novel it's a book about a world that's not so much on the brink of disaster but Midway through it very much that talks about the acts of humanity the small Acts of beauty that we can still do in these times on a small and large scale and the difference that they can make on the lives of so many creatures humans animals across the world
I first read the over story and loved it I thought it was an amazing emotional engaging complex novel a real Masterpiece it was great
I kind of detested goldbag variations I must say it's definitely a veristic novel and it would definitely appeal to fans of David Foster Wallas
