Before I Go to Sleep

Book Rating

I generally find thrillers slightly disappointing and somewhat predictable but I found Before I Go To Sleep an enjoyable exception.

It is a creative, innovative plot and you are really drawn into Christine's world living day by day with her.

I found the ending built in suspense spectacularly and found the novel as a whole compelling.

A good page-turner, intelligently written with a good twist at the end.

Ev Williams recommended Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity in Books (curated)

"Still the best advice on getting your life in order and freeing up your brain to be creative. I need frequent reminders on the approach laid out in this book, as I fall off the “GTD” wagon often. But every time I get back on I instantly feel happier and more in control. (If you’re familiar with GTD but need a reminder, check out Allen’s newer Making it All Work.)"

Movie Favorite Watch

"This movie is such a strange little treasure. It is brilliantly bizarre, from the main conceit to the fact that Cameron Diaz (at her very best; I miss her) plays a terribly coiffed chimpanzee enthusiast. Admit it, right now you’re thinking about that scene where John Malkovich enters the portal into his own brain, and all anyone can say is the word “Malkovich.” A masterpiece of unapologetic, creative weirdness."
