mike finn’s book reviews

“The Hunger Games” by Suzanne Collins – best science fiction I’ve read in a decade

“Juliet Naked” by Nick Hornby (audio book) – obsession, co-dependency and celebrity explored in the context of a Trans-Atlantic comedy of manners

“Neverwhere” by Neil Gaiman – not really a novel, just a disappointing novelisation

“Backseat Saints” by Joshilyn Jackson

“Playing For Pizza” John Grisham -perfect pool-side read in Italy

“Einstein’s Trunk” by Jim Haberkorn – couldn’t make myself like the hero

“WWW : Wonder” by Robert J Sawyer: slightly disappointing ending to strong science fiction triology

“Dead Reckoning” by Charlaine Harris – Sookie is becoming less and less human

“Star Island” by Carl Hiaasen – disappointingly average
