The Selected Works of T.S. Spivet by Reif Larsen
5.0
picked this one up because i'd heard that jeaunet was doing a film adaptation.
and? i can't wait!
i was originally going to go for 4 stars, because i felt that maybe the prodigy boy child theme was overdone, and that the book felt choppy.
but after further speculation and thought, i just really enjoyed the whole thing. t.s. spivet is so sweetly adorable, even if a bit unbelievable, and the ways in which i felt that the book was choppy just underscored the themes of east and west, of science and Science, past and present.
and seriously, underground hidden societies? unnggghhghgh, i can't wait to see jeaunet's take on this. hellooOOOo IMDB.
