This was a title I had been looking forward to ever since it was first announced, and I had no idea that it would make its way to me so early. The book was officially

Ah, yes, I loved it too. I read it a few months ago - but I had to give it back immediately - I can't wait to read it again!

I've been avoiding advance reviews because I didn't want to get spoiled. :) I hope you get your own copy soon!

I absolutely cannot wait to read this book. I'll admit that I only skimmed your review for fear of ruining the surprise of An Abundance of Katherines. I'm glad you enjoyed it, though! :)

It sounds fantastic. Especially this aspect of it - Colin Singleton used to be a prodigy. Used to be, because now he's a recent high school graduate, and what means "gifted prodigy" at age 2 means simply "smart" at age 18. That's enough to get me hooked. :)

YES! You - out of everyone I know - will "get" it like I "got" it. Oh, wait 'til I type up my favorite quotes from it. Something I didn't say in the review because I didn't want people to misunderstand me: The writing is better than the story. The profound statements and the quotes I'm going to type up are staying with me more than the plot. :)
