BOOK JOURNAL: BOOK 17
Merlin's Tour of the Universe, Neil Degrasse Tyson
I wanted to like this book. But it took me 17 days to read it, and some of the pages were only half-filled. It was a selection of Q&A that were sent to a newspaper column Neil Tyson had, where he was "Merlin", an alien from another galaxy, answering questions about space.
Some were interesting, some were way over my head, and some were pretty basic stuff. It just wasn't all that compelling, and due to the different levels of questions, it was really uneven.
It is due back to the library this upcoming Monday, so I quickly finished it last night.
Now to figure out what to read next, since the two books I requested from the library still haven't shown up yet.
Considering reading Sandman start to finish, since I never have. Hm.
