""I’m a big fan of Thomas Nagel’s earlier work… He is a very fine writer — a very clear writer — and just as a style of communication … he’s worth going to school on.""

Thor Ragnarok is a fun film with a great comedic style. It's quite an enjoyable time and has a lot of laughs. It's a great addition to Taika Waititi's collection of films!

Fun Writing Style
* I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.*
This book is beautifully written. It is written in a poetry style that matches well with the characters personalities. The story is that of a young man and woman who were each others first love running into each other 10 years later. I will say that it wasn't as light as I originally expected it to be, but I enjoyed the characters critic of young love and love in general. The ending also fits well with the mood of the book. Over all this wasn't my absolute favorite, but it definitely deserves a read, if not for the story than for the writing style.

A far superior entry than the kick off story arc, this feels much more like Bond. Danger, girls, intrigue, all continuing in the hard edged style established in Vargr. Cant wait for more.
