Book Reviews of Intuition
Book Review: Results Too Good To Be True
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this book. Couldn't put it down. The complex characters are believable and even though I hoped for a different ending, Goodman's ending is realistic. Although whistle blowers get blamed for revealing the truth, Robin and Cliff's romance tangles the plot. Great story. I want to read more of Goodman's fiction.Book Review: Was there a climax to this boring book?
Summary: 2 Stars
I read to the end but for what? I was disappointed that very little actually happened in this book. An earlier review said it was the scientific lab "observed by Jane Austen rather than Michael Crichton". True. Totally boring personal dramas rather than any actual intrigue. Give me Mr. Crichton any day!Book Review: Intuition or muddle?
Summary: 1 Stars
With each of Goodman's books I read, I said, "not again!" Then some review convinced me to try once more. Her stories are clever, but her writing is so banal and pedestrian that you're stuck persevering to find out what happens while kicking yourself for getting involved in the first place!Book Review: A Great Read
Summary: 5 Stars
I found it difficult to Put his book down until I finished it. Life in a Research Laboraory became real to me because the author peopled it with chacters I could identify with and understand despite my having little scientific background.Book Review: Intuition
Summary: 5 Stars
Allegra Goodman's "Intuition" is a brilliant book with one of the funniest and most rueful accounts of a person accepting his identity.
I have given 5 copies as gifts, and each reader has thanked me.
