Update: Light, summer reading

For the tl;dr crowd, here's a summary of yesterday's review post...
  • Pandora's Keepers - very good, 1st half about development, 2nd half about the implications on the scientists themselves
  • Batman: Hush Money - 3.5 on a 5 scale...mostly non-Batman stories about Gotham...especially enjoyed The Broker story
  • Starman Omnibus Vol 6 - Solid A-...great close to the series...tied up all the loose ends
  • The Male Mystique - 85/100...nice beat, you can dance to it...reproductions of 60's and 70's magazine ads...hilarious, worth looking through
  • Spider-Man: The Grim Hunt - 3 stars out of 4...nice follow-up to Kraven's last hunt...neat hunter-spider mythology
  • Anansi Boys - closer to Godfather II than Godfather III...fun listen...wonderful reader
  • X-Men: First Class - Closer to X2 than X3 (that's a good thing)...January Jones is horrible...the rest is lots of fun
  • the last eight are already pretty straight forward and short as they were...
