I read Frederik Pohl's The Cool War. Good, but a little cheesy at times. I don't think the mystillarce (mystery, thriller, farce) is a genre I like that much. This one read just a little too campy at times. 6 out of 9.
Roddy Doyle's The Woman Who Walked into Doors was brilliant. Roddy's usual choppy and somewhat disjoint style to start, but this book drags you in and is a visceral and blunt view into an ugly and terrifying subject. 9 out of 9.
I started Aravind Adiga's The White Tiger. If first 25 biting, sarcastic, dark and scathing pages is any indication, I am going to love this book.
