I can't even say I loved this book because it ripped my heart out and shredded it into tiny pieces. 5 ugly-sobbing stars.

Come on... did anyone really doubt that this would get a full five stars from me? I mean, seriously... but if you want to find out WHY it still deserves 5/5 stars a full 60 years after its first publication, you can read my review on my blog here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/02/08/my-hello-to-philip-roth/

While some of these stories deserve 5/5 stars, others were just... well... strange. Although this is an inconsistent collection, it certainly is interesting. Read more in my review here.

Really great read - great balance of humour, moving sadness and entertaining narrative. Loved it!
(Just a little bit too much American Football to get 5 stars!)

Aww! I shed a fair few tears near the end of this but it was so sweet and romantic, i'm giving it 5 well earned stars.

As always 5/5 stars. The story just continues on from where we left off and I’m always left wanting more. This one was a bit more intense and had me tearing up at one point.

Definitely looking forward to the next

No spoilers below.

4 stars: Super long, sometimes details about dumb stuff where I wish I had more details about other stuff

4 stars: sometimes hard to imagine some of the scenery.

4 stars: Interludes? what the heck?

5 stars: every 80-100 pages has some sweet art that helps you visualize things

5 stars: incredible world and intriguing story and characters

5 stars: good ups and downs - mix of excitement, sadness, awesomeness, character fails and character growth

1 star (kind of joking but not really): 3rd book isn't out yet!! Plus I have to buy some Arcanum Unbounded to read book 2.5? NO WAY. I'm saving up for the 3rd book haha

overall rating: 5 stars

I would like my wife to read these but the stories are just so dang LONG. I bet if all 3 books were released in an abridged format that I'd re-read them (and get her to read them for once) and it would be so fun to get down to the nitty gritty without going through 1000+ pages per book (although some people are in to that). In this case, I didn't mind it too much, as the writing is well done and the story is awesome. Kaladin is my bro!
