Wow!  What an interesting and timely examination of the interplay between science politics and the media and how they use and influence the truth ... while still being enjoyable and light hearted.  Definitely read for yourself.

This may be the most underrated book of the year, of any year. A terrific story with many truths, some unbearable to even think about, wonderfully told. I could not put this book down. Recommend it highly

This is my favorite book of the year. I am giving it to friends and family for Christmas. It is the story of the map that named America -- a remarkable map that is now the central feature in the lobby of the Library of Congress in Washington. But, told engagingly by Toby Lester, it is also a story of intrigue, deception, sex, and bribery -- the story of competition among early explorers and their patrons to find and document ( and mis-document) new worlds. A remarkable achievement.

Words cannot express how much I loved this book!  I read a LOT and it's been years since I have laughed this hard out loud while reading a book!  Hands down, my favorite book I've read all year, and actually, I think it makes it in my top 10 favorite books of all time.

I absolutely loved this book; it was my favorite read all year. I'm buying it for all my musician friends for Christmas, but also for my friends who love an engrossing, beautifully told story. Gallaway's writing is gorgeous, rich with allusion, big-hearted and often very funny, and he has accomplished something amazing with his story, which is at once a complicated braid of narratives and a page-turner. Can't recommend it highly enough.

The best book I've  read in years. Funny, insightful, beautiful, an life affirming.  I recommend it without reservation. And if you don't like it it's probably because you drive an Audi, or worse, a BMW.

Best book i have read all year and i read 4 books a week. Suspenseful in a nonviokent way. All the good words you want to hear to decide if you should buy a book are wrapped up in this book. get it and shut off your phone. you are going on an out of range trip. BRAVO to Slater.

This is the best book I have read in the last year. Khaled Hosseini is a fantastic author. The Kite Runner is an engaging story about, love, forgiveness and how we deal with the pain of our lives. I am not a regular reader, but this book was hard to put down. If you are looking for a new book, this is it.

The best book I've read this year.  Normally takes me a week or more to complete a book, finished this book in two days.
The courage and determination of the main characters was amazing.

One of the best books I've read this year. Its not a really a book its more like a dictionary of the healthy, wealthy and wise. You pick any category or person and read about their secrets and techniques they used to become the best at what they do. Probably my best purchase this year.

This is the best book I've read all year.  Great pace, plotting, and a good twist.  Once I finished it, I was tempted to start at the beginning and pick up on clues I missed.  The subject of sleepwalking and its variations was new to me.  It makes for a novel that pulls you in deeper with each chapter.  I've read other books by this author and enjoyed them but this one is my favorite.  You cannot tell who is lying, hiding something, or is totally out of the loop. Guessing answers is a blast here because you are unlikely to get it right.  Great read.
