    gern @ The Library: "Solaris" by Stanislav Lem... well, I can check it off the list

    I'm not sure what exactly I read but it was at least a change of pace from most of the scifi I read. The concept was good but I found myself getting caught in the minucia of the surroundings with the conclusion (at least I think it was the conclusion) expressed in a couple paragraphs.

    Kudos for not having lasers blasting and no bug hunt

    All and all, I'll give it 3.5 out of 5 stars --- decent but I probably needed to be in a different state of mind to really enjoy it

    PS How on earth did they make a movie out of a book with about 10 pages of dialogue?

    Really? Correcting my spelling? Come on! Then again, sometimes my just type how things sound gets me in trouble especially when I don't really care if I'm wrong. : )
