For me, a good book is one which does two things. First, it must relate a "good story" in a "fresh manner" so that it keeps my interest. Second, it must make me dog ear many of its pages because I am so moved by passages whose structure perfectly describes a situation, an emotion or well, just life.
The Rule of Four met both of my requirements. The story idea and plot structure were very creative, though the book retells the old tales of love and loss, betrayal, redemption, and the rite of passage from carefree college existence to real life. Many times I stopped my reading cold, as I found myself rereading and savoring each word of a poignant passage: a most impressive accomplishment from two authors with limited "real life" experience.
A tremendous first effort!

Is it just me that feels that this book was nothing more than a 400 page introduction of characters? The best thing about this book was the lightning-fast speed at which I would fall asleep when reading it. I recommend this book to all insomniacs desperately seeking an alternative to prescription drugs.

This book was a waste of time. It wasn't even a good mystery. The best part of the entire book was the exert that you get from the cover. I agree that the author rambles on and on about nothing. After reading the Da Vinci Code this was definetly a let down. I don't even understand why the ratings on the book are so high. In my opionion the book is not even well written. I spent the first half of the book trying to figure out who was talking and if they were talking in the past or in the present. Definetly not one that I would recommend.

This book flat out STINKS! Why do I care about this text whose secrets they are trying to unlock? Why should anyone? Questions the authors should have answered early on in the story. Truth is, nobody cares and the authors don't explain any significance of knowing its true meaning. The first two thirds of this book are one boring princeton related story after another. Poor character development and lack of a story line in general really hurt the novel. No doubt these are two bright guys, they could probably do much better. I didn't expect a 'Divinci Code' type story, but please, how about some drama instead of rambling and rambling and rambling on about NOTHING! DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK!
A bold, mesmerizing novel about the woman known as "Typhoid Mary," the first known healthy carrier of typhoid fever in the burgeoning metropolis of early twentieth century New York.
Stranger than fiction, blending tragedy and farce, How to Create the Perfect Wife is an engrossing tale of the radicalism, and deep contradictions, at the heart of the Enlightenment.
