Okay, aber für mich kein Knaller. Vielleicht auch, da ich zu spät erst bemerkte, dass das Buch aus einer Krimireihe kommt und einige Querverweise hat. Was ich mochte waren die natürlichen Dialoge und Anflüge von Poesie. Aber von einem Spiegel Bestseller hätte ich noch etwas mehr erwartet.

It's been a long time since I've last finished a book in about a day. The story is okay but what really made it for me was John Green's writing and the wit of his characters.

"In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move."

Something you can read over and over again, even when you should be busy doing other things.

Witziger Anfang, hier und da eine Stelle zum Schmunzeln. Ansonsten Hakenkreuzkäfer, stinkendes Urin und so überhaupt keine Spannung. Meh.

I've started reading through some of the classics you can get for free for your Kindle. Till then I never knew The Time Machine was such a short book, perfect for some casual 2 day reading.

This is a simple yet exciting adventure story that draws an image of the possible future where our society could be heading. Also, it's hard not to like a story where the main character is a classy fellow who travels through time in gentleman's clothes from the 19th century.

Interesting read to learn about Apple's history and Steve Jobs' leadership style. The premise of the book however sounds a bit strange to me, as it seems to be trying to tell the reader what to do to be like Steve Jobs without questioning his actions. Also the writing is a bit out of date of course, as it was written a few years before Jobs' passing away. He certainly was an inspiring person and this book seems to give a good introduction to his role at Apple (and Pixar), but to have a more profound image about his life I think I'll read more from different sources.

Some kind of biography about Richard Stallman and his fight for Free Software. Interesting read that makes me want to create more publicly available software.

Interessant zu erfahren, dass manchmal eine spontane Entscheidung besser sein kann als eine genaue Abwägung. Unser Unterbewusstsein ist offensichtlich zu mehr in der Lage als ich dachte. Gleichzeitig ist das aber auch der Grund, warum wir unterbewusst rassistisch sind und mit Vorurteilen unsere Entscheidungen treffen. War ganz interessant, aber ich fand das Buch nicht so herausragend, wie mir vorher berichtet wurde.

Tolle Atmosphäre im Berlin der 1920er Jahre. Sobald es beim Kommissar endlich los geht, geht es dann auch richtig los. Das passiert etwa ab der Hälfte des Buches.
