Noooo, Veronica DIED. T_T
Okay, I shall get over it. Ship of Fools is kind of great so far. I mean, I read reviews on amazon.com and some were saying that it isn’t very good, but I beg to differ. Although when I first started on Ship of Fools I felt that it was going to be rather shallow, as I read I could see how much of the characters Russo develops. Maybe except for the backgroud characters, who seem to appear rather two-dimensional. Other than that I think his spectacular use of the first-person - which I’m not a fan of, I’m afraid - really pumps suspense into his prose.
Oh well. What a lame attempt to review a book. Anyway, it’s rather good, reads like a movie would. Kind of reminds me of Alien (you know, the one with Sigourney Weaver in it) because they both have an alien aboard their ship.
Anyway, am wasting time on the internet AGAINNNN!
