I've ordered it for the library, but they think it may have been "in transit" for six weeks - for somebody else.

Oh well, at least there is a thread now.

I got it out of the library, will start it later today.

I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but jesus. I nearly changed my mind when it was in the sci fi section....have I not punished myself enough after reading text books for the last 3 months?!

Anyway, I'm going to broaden my horizons and give it a go, since it's named after the man himself.

Or is it the other way round.....;)

Picked up my copy from library today - sneaked a peek at page 1-2 looks great!

I've read about 35 pages of this so far.

I hate to say it but I'm actually enjoying it so far...

It's a very 'boys' book though. I hope there's some romance in it eventually

*will be disappointed*

LMAO!

I need to see if I can track a copy down this weekend. I haven't seen it in any bookstores so will see how long the local library will take to request it for me.

I've finished it, and ordered the next one. Not my usual type of book, and I can tell why my library decided to shove it under teenage. But it was good. I'll write more about it later on, wouldn't want to spoil the story.

The library doesn't seem to be able to find the copy - do I want to buy it?
