Rob reviews books he accidentally took a picture of



From Right to left,

101 Amazing card tricks: Amazing. Though I lack the dexterity due to not practicing at all.

The g.i. diet: Have not read, but sounds delicious.

Scott Pilgrim 4: The art totally changed in this one. Scott cuts a woman in half and there's some cool swords. Awesome.

Scott Pilgrim 3: I KNEW VEGANS HAD SUPERPOWERS! Though the DBZ rips are good.

Scott Pilgrim 2: This book is excellent becaus they go to the library. Casa Loma would also be an awesome level on THPS.

Scott Pilgrim 1: Bollywood kicks.

Scott Pilgrim 5: Scott fights a robot. Something else happened. OK.

Scott Pilgrim 6: I think this one is actually an ad for Bryan Lee O'Malley's line of clothing. Swords!

L'Etranger: I read the translation. True existentialists be warned, this world will ruin you by way of social contract. But no use crying about it. Also some pretty excellent stuff when his mind breaks.

Le Livre De Mon Ami: Did not read.

Canadian Short Stories: Did not read these ones.

The Ionian Mission: This one has lots of seagoing in it, and some good naval action. Mowatt was still alive too.

Evolution and Christian Faith: This book argues that Christian faith and the theory of evolution are not mutually exclusive beliefs. I guess I agree with the basic message of the book, but the book was painful to read. I think the author was trying too hard to be conciliatory and constantly dampened her arguments.

The Economics of Education: I only read a couple of pages of this one. Dry. Maybe I'll try again someday.

American Psycho: I only saw the movie. Why do you think I'm scared of Neo-Cons. Man Batman is crazy.

Oresteia: So I think I read this back in university, but I can't really remember what goes on. Like every other greek play it either blew my mind or made me want to stab myself.

The Stagnant Society: Did not read.

Tit-Coq: Did not read.

Candide: Did not read.

The Lives of Girls and Women: Did not read.

Above Ground: Did not read.

Man that was more books than I thought when it first occurred to me to do this. Luckily I haven't read most of them.
