  Good, quick read I liked this book, thought the concept very interesting... and the idea of ending your life as an infant, no troubles or problems, and then just fading away at last...
  
  I haven't yet seen the movie, but from the previews I've seen, the movie takes a lot of liberties with the story. Such is Hollywood. I posted this on 23 February 2009

Question of the Week - Question of the Week #13: Love is in the Air (or Book)

A tie between Mr Darcy from Pride & Prejudice and Marcus Yallow from Little Brother (by Cory Doctorow). A cross between the dark, shy silent type and the young techno-geek reluctant hero! Plus they both sound like they're great-looking.
