#67 The Somnambulist by Jonathan Barnes

[missingvolume]

I got this as part of Harper Collins First Look program. http://www.harpercollins.com/Members/FirstLook/index.aspx  Harper also does several newsletter that I read so I can keep with the new releases if any of you are interested.

This is what I posted for them.  With the clever twist of who the narrator is along with his occasional breaking of the fourth wall and speaking directly to the reader this was a fun romp and made for a nice change of pace. The ending left room for a sequel but it also isn’t necessary.  I enjoyed it and will be recommending it to my friends. 

That being that being said I don't know if everyone on my friends list will care for it. There is a touch of a steampunk feel to it but not overwhelming. I did enjoy it but not enought to run out and force my friends to read it.

I think she does some local to her cons. Not that it helps you any./

I just looked up our new vision plan and my eyeball doc isn't on it. In fact it was almost all optimists. I hate the eye dilation deal. It sucks

Optometrists? (optimists made me laugh, which just adds to the love, ya know). Yeah, we have no insurance for eye stuff anyway, unless one gets put out or something.

I'm going to ask if they can skip the dilation this time, as I just had it done and it was so crazy. I'll see what he says. Wonder if I can get my test results from the Lasik place?

Man I can typo anything! I prefer going to Ophthalmologists but mine wasn't on the plan so I will go Out of Network for the visit and get my glasses anywhere.

You are an amazing woman in many ways. Your typos are just one of them.
